@ThomHartmann, whose work I admire, bemoans progressive media's problems but he continues to publish on the odious Twitter and Substack. Re the latter he cites liberal newsletters, parenthetically noting the platform "also carries hard-right content". Uh, it's a go-to place for the rancid right, and the key investors are hard-right Trumpists.

Publishing on Twitter and Substack gives unconscionable support to bad-news billionaires.

I'm glad he posts here, however.

Alaska Republican senator Murkowski says she won't vote for Trump appointees if no FBI vetting.

Easy "brave" move since the Senate Republican majority doesn't need her vote.

I expect Sen. Concerned (Collins, Maine) to join this empty protest.

Do read @mmasnick on the rancid hypocrisy of people like Matt Taibbi, who LOVE the blend of government and social media when it's the extremists they support.

(There was a time when I respected Taibbi, but he morphed into something unrecognizable.)

Data brokers are selling the location of US soldiers in Europe to anyone who wants it. No problem, says Congress, which has refused for decades to give a damn about anyone's privacy (other than their own).

Reminder: data brokers are promiscuously selling your data -- location, financial, health, you name it -- and you can't do a thing about it.

Rumors of Google canceling development of its tablet are hardly surprising -- the company had never demonstrated any kind of serious commitment to the genre.

Remember, this is a company that had BY FAR the best of breed small tablet in the early 2010s and then just let it fizzle away.
