Despite having having far more people, Russia also has about an equivalent GDP to California minus Los Angeles and Santa Clara County. Seems pretty low T and beta!

ICE took my friend and neighbor, Alma. Didn't tell anyone. Left her car in a random parking lot. She was about a mile from our homes. She had her uniform on, going to work. We were single mothers after divorces at the same time.We watched out fo each other in this what we could afford neighborhood.

Before Hitler rose to power, Germany had thousands of competing newspapers. Then the Nazis learned how to control who could be a journalist, what could be reported—and eventually, what counted as news. Here’s why Trump's press purge matters. thecycle.substack.com/p/how-to-kil...

A “free press” means that the President does not get to make this distinction. A “free press” that is only free if it agrees with me is not free.

A president does not get to choose his own press corps. The White House briefing room is not Trump's stage and the press pass is not a party favor handed out for flattering coverage, it is the public's seat in the room, held in trust by reporters who work for us, not for him.
