I'm fighting like hell to keep my small-town newspaper here in Montana relevant and open. Hired a young man from rural Michigan who will be joining me soon, making us a newsroom of two. He told me after I hired him he couldn't get a single interview anywhere else. I believe it, and it pisses me off

You have more in common with the people of Iran than you do with anyone in this administration, any member of the technocracy, anyone who is profiting from this war, or any billionaire. When you see Iranians forming human chains outside key infrastructure sites, you should feel a sense of kinship.

"Polishing impunity only comforts the unaffected. It’s true that many federal agents are sloppy and unprepared, but years of organizing against police violence have taught me that more training doesn’t stop violence. It just makes the death-making more respectable and more expensive."

Bong Joon Ho hit me up for the squad you legend deadline.com/2025/11/bong...

Bong Joon Ho took a characteristically radical approach when questioned on his thoughts around the rise of Al technology at the jury press conference of the Marrakech Film Festival on Saturday.
The Korean director, who is president of the jury, gave two responses, one measured, the other deeply personal.
"My official answer is, Al is good because it's the very beginning of the human race finally seriously thinking about what only humans can do. But my personal answer is, I'm going to organize a military squad, and their mission is to destroy AI," he said.

Congressional republicans have been spewing racist attacks on Mamdani for weeks and it’s almost never mentioned in our media. Not only that, the person leading the hate campaign—Randy Fine—is treated by the same media as a good faith expert on antisemitism. I wrote about this obscene double standard

Why is Mainstream Media Ignoring Overtly Racist Attacks on Mamdani from Congressional Republicans?

Non-stop Islamopbohic vitriol, threats of deportation, and virtually no coverage from CNN, NBC, CBS, The New York Times, The Wall Street Journal or The Washington Post.

Hi, I'm the ProPublica reporter who's been tracking an unusual stat: U.S. citizens grabbed by immigration agents. I did it because the government isn’t. This is what I found.

White words on a black background read:

50+
Immigration agents have the authority to detain whom they reasonably suspect are in the country illegally. We found more than 50 Americans who were held after agents questioned their citizenship. They were almost all Latino.

~130
Agents also can arrest citizens who allegedly interfered with or assaulted officers. We compiled cases of about 130 Americans, including a dozen elected officials, accused of assaulting or impeding officers.

~20
Among the citizens detained are nearly 20 children, including two with cancer.

By far, the most needed AI tool I learned about at #datajconf was introduced by Bette Dam asking: "Can we use an AI tool to investigate ourselves [journalists] rather than someone else?" Bette has reported on Afghanistan for decades and knows intimately how deeply flawed elite news coverage is.
