Corruption is so rampant under the Trump MAGA era it belongs to a Medieval fable

The GRU hacked into Jared Kushner's iPhone. Dutch military intelligence (MIVD) then recruited a GRU spy who gave them access to the hacked phone. What MIVD discovered was that Kushner had access to two bank accounts --one Azerbaijani, the other Israeli --where Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman and Emirati ruler Mohammed bin Zayed deposited money. It sounds like a slightly far-fetched episode of "Slow Horses," but it's real. And it proves just how eye-poppingly corrupt this administration was and continues to be as its "special envoy" decides the fate of tens of millions in Europe in the Middle East. Simply incredible reporting by Matthew Cole, drawn from his new book on Kushner. vanityfair.com/story/jared-k…

This sucks. Fake Accounts was rejected by, like, 20? Big 5 editors, and Catapult bought it and let me do what I wanted with it, and they published it so well that it was accused of being a mainstream publishing conspiracy. Good luck and solidarity to everyone there
The independent publisher Catapult, cofounded in 2015 by Elizabeth Koch, will be acquired by an unspecified buyer and end operations on October 30. The newly formed staff union said it was notified that “continued employment with the prospective buyer is not an option.” buff.ly/f4EapkJ
Rogers is accusing him of murdering innocent people. That’s beyond slander. Rogers, you are heinous scum. And that’s not slander. If this election doesn’t deliver justice, American democracy will be too deep in the sewer to ever crawl out

feeling such sympathy for an entire generation of young Americans who have never known a US president exhibiting generosity, dignity, decency & a wish to unite the country; just the old-fashioned courtesy of former presidents (Eisenhower, long-ago; Biden, more recently) no matter their politics.
growing up in such a crude, cruel world will give them the wrong idea about life: life is not a stand-up comic routine of crude threats & insults but something precious, magnanimous, expansive, inclusive.... America used to be special, at least in its public stated ideals.
now, public life is debased. it may take generations to recover normalcy.

Ayer en México, feria del libro, "Foro Alaide Foppa", desaparecida en los 80, hoy asesinado su nieto: Francisco Solórzano Foppa.
Francisco Goldman retweeted
Repudio enérgicamente el cobarde asesinato del exfiscal Juan Francisco Solórzano Foppa. Sus autores, materiales e intelectuales, deben pagar las consecuencias con todo el peso de la ley: todas las instituciones públicas deben cooperar para que este crimen se castigue. Instruí a las instituciones del ejecutivo para actuar de inmediato, coordinarse con las autoridades competentes y poner todas sus capacidades al servicio del esclarecimiento de este crimen.
Quienes creen que el terror puede intimidar al pueblo de Guatemala y al gobierno que dirijo, se equivocan. En honor a Foppa, en honor a nuestra patria, en honor a la justicia.
Francisco Goldman retweeted
Hace casi 24 años empezamos como pasantes en la agencia 19 de la Fiscalía Metropolitana. Compartimos alegrías y tu amistad nunca faltó en los momentos difíciles. No siempre coincidimos, pero siempre admiré tu lucha.
Duele despedirte así, Foppa. Esta es nuestra última foto, de hace un año. Hasta siempre, amigo.

Meta employees admitted the US corporation censored the Instagram, Facebook, and WhatsApp accounts of Brazil's left-wing President Lula da Silva in the lead-up to this month's election.
Meta also promoted the accounts of far-right pro-US candidate Flávio Bolsonaro.
Meta claimed this was supposedly because of "technical issues".
But what this really shows is how real democracy is impossible when US Big Tech corporations are used to manipulate elections around the world, to put in power right-wing US puppets who will sell out their country to US corporations and the US government (see: the recent US electoral interference in Colombia, Honduras, Peru, Argentina, etc.)
The CIA previously focused on organizing military coups to overthrow independent left-wing leaders and install right-wing pro-imperialist ones. Now it's much easier: Silicon Valley helps the US empire carry out soft coups by manipulating public opinion and interfering in elections.
