- Reposted by Julia Sugarbaker 🇺🇸One more comment on the Post debacle: this hurts journalism broadly. Good journalists will go do something else. The rest will be fighting for fewer jobs and everyone will earn less. Fewer people will take up the career. The damage done is to the ecosystem, as well as the paper.

He does a press release about a letter he sent to the director of the CIA that basically says, 'I want to make sure you saw the classified letter I sent early today.' www.wyden.senate.gov/imo/media/do...

- Reposted by Julia Sugarbaker 🇺🇸Jeffrey Bezos is destroying the Washington Post for the same reason Musk destroyed Twitter and Ellison is destroying CBS—oligarchs oppose the free press when if it threatens their wealth and power. They don’t want normal people to see what is happening in America.
- Reposted by Julia Sugarbaker 🇺🇸Jeff Bezos’s wealth has increased an average of $70 million every day of 2026, meaning that he could have offset The Post’s losses with what he’s made since Monday.

- Reposted by Julia Sugarbaker 🇺🇸Some folks seem shocked by T/MAGA designation of protestors as "agitators." The criminalization of protest isn't new. Civil rights and Black Power activists, anti-Vietnam war activists, union organizers, etc. have been labeled "outside agitators" forever...including by many Dems.

- Reposted by Julia Sugarbaker 🇺🇸Trump wants to change voting. His ICE are making cities dangerous. The economy is bad. We've lost myriad allies. He's redesigning the WH in and out. He's ripped history out of D.C.'s museums. He's fired countless workers. He's joined at Putin's hip. I could go on, but I think there's a point.
