YOU hate Nader for throwing the 2000 election. I hate Nader for ushering in the era of Consumer as a primary political identity, touting the tort system as an alternative to normal democratic deliberation, and making things generally work worse in the USA.

When they get back in power, Democrats need to go all-in on higher education. We need a campaign of reinvestment in public universities across the country that makes the Morrill Land-Grant Act look like nothing by comparison *and* a GI Bill of Rights-style program of tuition grants.

America is full of ppl who have to learn every damn thing the hard way: "Instead of learning from the 200+yr struggle to free women from male ownership, I'll try relinquishing my legal & economic autonomy--how bad can it be?" Reinventing feminism from 1st principles, one destroyed life at a time.

This is what drives me nuts. If you want the D party to move left, you have to give them big enough margins so that it is electorally safe for them to move left. The reason Biden's legislative packages weren't farther left wasn't because Ds are too centrist, it's because he didn't have enough Ds.

MEDIA AGENCIES

U.S. AGENCY FOR GLOBAL MEDIA
Mora Namdar

MISSION STATEMENT
The mission of United States Agency for Global Media (USAGM) is to inform, engage, and connect people around the world in support of freedom and democ-racy. However, this mission statement does not reflect the current work of the agency. The mission is noble, but the execution is lacking. To fulfill its mission, USAGM should also aim to present the truth about America and American policy-not parrot America's adversaries' propaganda and talking points.?

OVERVIEW
Originally formed as the Broadcasting Board of Governors (BBG) in 1994, the BBG changed its name in 2018 to the United States Agency for Global Media. The USAGM is a sub-Cabinet agency of the U.S. government with a budget of just under $1 billion. The agency oversees two government broadcasting networks: the Voice of America (VOA) and the Office of Cuba Broadcasting (OCB). USAGM also oversees 100 percent of the grant funding for several "independent" grantee organizations, including the Middle East Broadcasting Network (MBN), Radio Free Asia (RFA), Radio Free Europe/Radio Liberty (RFE/RL), and the newly formed Open Technology Fund (OTF).

• The Voice of America provides news and information in 48 languages to a weekly audience of more than 326 million people worldwide. For more

“The arrangement would give Vought, the director of the White House Office of Management and Budget, a direct role in determining how NIH distributes its $48 billion in congressionally-appropriated money.” Bypassing the many checks and balances at NIH on grant funding decisions.

On camera to Dana Bash when asked about his claim that Haitians were eating pets: "If I have to create stories, then that's what I'm going to do." His lies led to bomb threats, school evacuations, and the Haitian community being terrorized by a lie he chose to keep telling. He's a racist for sport.

worth tying this into the political economy of the slave south as well. from roughly the 1820s onwards, slavery became enormously lucrative in ways that had never been seen before. slave traders became millionaires. large planters had tremendous purchasing power. just huge amounts of wealth.

Asked why the WNBA continues to experience these heightened distractions, Cloud said, "Men."
"The men now that are like 'Oh, we need to protect the WNBA,’ y'all were the same ones saying we shouldn't be paid," Cloud continued. "Y'all were the same ones saying we shouldn't have been invested in, saying we're a joke, the same ones that don't respect Black women. So, if you're going to protect women, that means all women. That includes Black women, trans women and the list goes on."
