- Reposted by Jill Read, Rise, ResistThe CIA just stopped publishing their World Factbook and took every page, including the archived copies of previous versions! This sucks. It was public domain, so I recovered the 2020 edition (the last one published as a zip file) and shared it to GitHub simonwillison.net/2026/Feb/5/t...

- Reposted by Jill Read, Rise, ResistThe Washington Post and CBS aren’t intended to succeed. They’re intended to fail and as they fail any sort of power or influence they have over public opinion will demonstrably wane until it disappears. It’ll happen over and over again until there are no impediments for the wealthy.
- Reposted by Jill Read, Rise, ResistEverybody has it backwards. Billionaires aren’t buying up these institutions to make money. They’re buying them to kill them. Same as the oligarchs destroying government and social programs and things like weather forecasting and regulatory bodies. They’re creating a world they control completely
- Reposted by Jill Read, Rise, ResistOur founders, though deeply flawed, understood that democracy requires an informed citizenry and a government accountable to it people. That’s why the press is the only profession protected by the Constitution. It’s also why autocrats and oligarchs seek to control and destroy it.

- Reposted by Jill Read, Rise, ResistThe Illinois Department of Public Health sidestepped the federal government this week by independently joining the WHO’s Global Outbreak Alert and Response Network (GOARN). It is the second state to do so, after California joined the network last month. trib.al/0ecIsxF

- Reposted by Jill Read, Rise, ResistJeffrey 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 Jill Read, Rise, ResistGarcia: I want to remind the American public of Stephen Miller. There's probably no single person in this government that has done more damage and more harm to people across this country than this man right here. It's our job to hold him responsible
- Reposted by Jill Read, Rise, ResistHow did they redact abusers but not the victims? And they expect us to believe 40 nude photos went unnoticed? That’s exactly why people think the DOJ did this on purpose, to shame these women for coming forward.
- Reposted by Jill Read, Rise, ResistThe U.S. ranks 40th in healthcare—dead last on this list—yet Congress keeps shoveling billions into ICE. We fund raids, cages, and weapons while people die waiting for care. This isn’t incompetence. It’s priorities. And they’re lethal. #FundHealthcareOverICE #USDemocracy #Voices4Victory

- Reposted by Jill Read, Rise, ResistThe Trump regime is plotting to convert commercial warehouses to massive ICE detention centers. Private prison corporations, who just so happened to donate to Trump, are already raking in billions. How many more private companies are going to cash in on this cruelty?
- Reposted by Jill Read, Rise, ResistNew: Buc-ee's told me very forcefully that neither the company nor its CEO has "donated" money to ICE. But Buc-ee's CEO Arch Aplin III does have a long history of donating lots of money to Republicans - www.chron.com/culture/arti...

- Reposted by Jill Read, Rise, ResistWhat if we made a rule where a sitting president can’t sue the government he runs??? It seems a no brainer.
- Reposted by Jill Read, Rise, ResistMarimar Martinez: “The government told the people they were targeting the worst of the worst…They are not targeting the worst of the worst. They are targeting individuals who fit a certain profile, who simply have a certain accent, a non-white skin color, just like me.”
- Reposted by Jill Read, Rise, ResistThere's a prominent Republican congressman who met his current wife when she was in high school and he was in his 40s, and it's just treated like no big deal by his caucus. Worth remembering when they dismiss the Epstein Files stuff as no big deal.
- this might sound bad. but if you look into the story it's actually much, much worse prospect.org/2022/04/08/h...

- Reposted by Jill Read, Rise, ResistPolymarket, the gambling app that lets users bet on just about anything, was being investigated for violating money laundering laws. Then Trump became president. The DOJ dropped its probe. And Don Jr. (who was an investor) got hired as an advisor to the company. Funny how that works, huh?
