"The Post Office, robustly defending its position was a big reason why this story did not get away." Katie Razzall is joined by Journalists Ian Hislop, Nick Wallis and others debate why it took a TV drama for a huge injustice to get the headline it deserved. A Post...

The Note Jim Carrey's Girlfriend Wrote Before She Took Her Own Life Is Absolutely Chilling: She blamed him for exposing her to a life of debauchery. Here is the full story 👇

@katierazz Feels vindictive/punitive to want #PostOffceScandal decision makers to lose pensions/jobs/savings etc... but that is exactly what they did, knowingly, to thousands of staff. Innocent folks lost work, reputation, homes - so guilty people should too, surely? What are the odds?

@katierazz I absolutely felt and shared Ian Hislop’s rage and frustration on last night’s Peston. A lot of it deservedly directed at Jake Berry. Peston seemed to think it was a problem 🤷‍♀️

@BBCRosAtkins @katierazz But it did get away. They've been suffering for 20+yrs now & people have died in the meantime. Even the latest announcement won't be done till end of the year, when potentially more could have passed away. If not for one TV program the PO would be now walking away whistling

@MattFoot2 @katierazz Nick Davies had similar problems investigating the Phone-Hacking Scandal. If I remember right, he was thinking of giving it up, before getting a major breakthrough. ...and the rest, as they say...

@katierazz Good on this triumvirate powerhouse to bring the issues to the fore. Can anyone please tell me if it's true that the panel working out compensation for PO staff did not include anyone from the mental health profession? How, then, would 'experts' put a price on trauma, stress etc?

@katierazz We owe so much to proper investigative journalism, but here's the thing. Over and over, we keep hearing about "fake news" and the failed MSM, even from a US President, so much so that it has eroded our confidence in news media. Is this why we've ignored the PO story so long?

This week’s guest on Beyond Gender, journalist Nick Wallis (Nick Wallis), is one of my favourite voices in the gender debate. After his exceptional coverage of the UK’s Post Office scandal, Nick turned his attention to the scandal of gender affirming care and the madness of the wider trans movement. In this episode, we covered a wide range of topics, from the Post office throwing innocent people in prison, the lies and false promises of gender medicine, the media beclowning itself on the altar of trans activism, and of course, why Canada insists on being so stupid. 🎧Premiering now

DNI Tulsi Gabbard just gave an answer about accountability that will be remembered for decades. She said the more “we shine a light” on deep state tactics, the “more hope we have” for real change. GABBARD: “It’s important to push for accountability.” “First step is exposing the truth to the American people.” “That is a huge step towards accountability because the more we shine a light on the truth of these deep state tactics to undermine our republic and the will of the American people, the more likely it is that we have hope for change.” “Accountability can come after the presentation of the truth and in this case, documents that had not been released publicly before.” “I’m leaving it up to the lawyers in the Department of Justice to take a look at this and to determine the specific legal parameters.” “But it was important for us to to refer this along with all of the information that we have so that the Department of Justice can do exactly that and investigate it.”

“It is not doing any good, it is not going anywhere. It is not doing anything for me only putting me through torture. “At my age now I need to step back… we are not going to get to the truth.” Kevin Skelton, who lost his wife and mother of four Philomena in the Omagh bombing, has said he is “finished” with a public inquiry into the atrocity following the delivery of video evidence from a senior Garda officer. It came as a barrister said the inquiry intends to “seek answers from the Republic of Ireland” about “outstanding questions” relating to the theft of the car used in the 1998 bombing.

CNBC’s Andrew Ross Sorkin: “We just said the [Washington Post] laid off about 30% of its staff and there’s a lot of people out there who said, Jeff’s super wealthy, he’s talked about this being a public trust, it’s something that he bought early on, how much do you care about that piece of it? Why lay people up? Why fire people? Why are you subsidizing the business…” Jeff Bezos: “Because The Post needs to be a profitable enterprise that stands on its own two feet.” “What I told them, when we were planning those layoffs, I didn’t pick who was going to be laid off or which departments. I said, follow the data. Follow the data. And I said, there’s one exception to this. Don’t follow the data on investigative reporting. The heart of The Post is investigative reporting, and guess what? Our newsroom today, even after the layoffs, is still larger than when we did Watergate and the Pentagon Papers. And we just won the Pulitzer Prize for public service, the most prestigious Pulitzer for our investigation in the DOGE.” “The Post is going to continue to be an important institution. In fact, it’s going to be a more important institution because of this financial discipline. It needs to be relevant to readers. It needs stand on its own two feet. I don’t want it to be a charity. It doesn’t need to be and it shouldn’t be.” Andrew Ross Sorkin: “Do you want to own it?” Jeff Bezos: “Yes, my vision is still to make sure The Post is a, when I bought The Post, it was very unprofitable when I brought it. The newsroom was even smaller than it is today. We turned it around in two years, it was profitable for six years. I put all that money back in The Post and grew the newsroom, so we’ve shrunk it back some now. But we haven’t shrunk it back to what it was when I bought it.”

Former Washington Post editor Marty Baron says news organizations are important because the public "deserves" to know what is happening in the "corridors of power." "The role of a news organization is to give the public the information it needs and deserves to know so that they can govern themselves," he said. "The Washington Post has a long history of that and, particularly, of holding the government to account." Baron, who was editor of The Washington Post from 2012 until 2021, spoke to PBS News Hour's Geoff Bennett on Wednesday about the sweeping layoffs at the Post. The Post laid off a third of its workforce this week across both the newsroom and its business operations, a massive blow to a storied newspaper that has struggled recently to stay profitable. "The press is built into our democracy. It is provided for in the First Amendment to the Constitution because the founders understood that you needed an institution that would keep watch on government," Baron said. "We are not stenographers, and we should not be propagandists," he added. "That is the role that The Washington Post has historically played, and that's the role that it should continue to play."

This inquiry was initiated to address one of the most pressing issues of our time: the federal and state governments’ responses to COVID-19. The challenges we faced over the past few years highlighted severe shortcomings in our governments’ responses to COVID and weaknesses in our democracy. To ensure justice, accountability and financial compensation, it is imperative that a comprehensive Judicial Inquiry into the government’s handling of COVID-19 is called. This could take the form of a Senate Commission of Inquiry or a Royal Commission. Investigations that must be robust, independent and based on data and facts, with the power to subpoena witnesses and documentation. The handling of COVID affected us all in profound ways. To fully understand the scope of these effects and to prevent this happening again in the future, we need to establish an accurate and detailed timeline of events and associated facts. Placing the most up-to-date information on the record will uncover the truth behind the decisions made and their consequences. These are essential for restoring accountability and trust in governments, and health services and departments. We must make this issue a federal election matter, with the goal being to awaken the public with clear, understandable facts. The public needs to become aware of the magnitude of the problems we faced. The mishandling of this crisis is not a matter of minor errors. It involved significant failures that demand accountability and serious repercussions. That is the only way to restore trust in our medical systems and in our government systems and processes. This issue is far from over. We owe it to ourselves and to future generations—especially our children and grandchildren—to address these failings directly, clearly and bluntly. We must hold those responsible accountable and ensure that such lapses are never repeated.

Investigative journalist Nick Wallis played a pivotal role in uncovering the Post Office scandal—one of the greatest miscarriages of justice in British history. His BBC reporting helped expose the truth and ultimately contributed to the launch of a public inquiry. Now, Nick is applying the same investigative rigor to examining the medical and safeguarding issues surrounding gender medicine. This time, however, he’s doing so without the backing of the BBC. In his new The Free Speech Union interview with Connie Shaw he mentions one of the differences he’s noticed between those who have been harmed by gender medicine and those who came forward in the Post Office scandal: a lack of family support.

Elon Musk: We will not accept an anointed class of journalists who tell us what to think. “What we're not going to do is say that there's some anointed class of journalists who are the special ones who get to tell everyone what they should think. It should be up to the people what they think. And even if an article is completely accurate, comprehensive, and everything, in writing that article, the media is choosing the narrative. They're deciding what to write an article about. So, I'm hopeful that this can be more a case of the public choosing the narrative as opposed to the media choosing the narrative. At least a combination of the media and the public choosing the narrative, and the public getting to weigh in on stories if they think that they should add something to it, or we've got something wrong. And over time, I think if Twitter is the best source of truth, it will succeed. And if we are not the vessels of truth, we will fail.” Interview with the BBC, April 12, 2023

Karoline Leavitt didn’t wait for the media to set the tone—she fired the first shot. Before a single question was asked, she went straight after The Washington Post for what she called a dishonest and manipulative headline on the fentanyl crisis. Their headline: “The mysterious drop in fentanyl seizures on the U.S.-Mexico border.” Leavitt called it what it was: spin. “How is this mysterious?” she asked. “There is no mystery about why there is a decrease in fentanyl coming into the United States!” She pointed directly to the administration’s border policies and cooperation with Mexico as the reason for the decline. “This administration’s strong border policies are the reason there has been a decrease in fentanyl trafficking,” she said. “His strengthened relationship with Mexican President Sheinbaum and all of the measures he has been taking to deter illegal human and drug trafficking at our United States southern border is the reason for plummeting fentanyl seizures at the U.S. Border.” But the issue wasn’t just the headline. It was what Leavitt described as intentional narrative engineering. “This is clearly trying to intentionally manipulate the minds of Americans, and I think the American people understand why there has been fentanyl drop.” And when the Post ignored the administration’s full explanation? “Our office responded to this inquiry, we provided a whole host of the reasons that fentanyl seizures have dropped at the southern border, and The Washington Post refused to run them,” she said. “And that’s despicable.”

[WATCH] ANC UPLOADED NAMES ON TIME AND SOME WERE KICKED OUT DUE TO TECHNICAL GLITCHES “We did upload all of the candidates, it’s important to assure our members, supporters and our community that participated in the candidate selection process that took place. We did upload all of our candidates from all the nine provinces and regions on time. The 28th of August was the final day of submission of the final list, why it took place then is because the ANC undergoes an extensive process of vetting and interviewing and holding community meetings, all of this take time. We are very robust in how we’ve improved our candidate selection process. The very last portion of the batch is when the system started kicking them out. That was before 5 o’clock. We are not discussing here a lack of compliance on the part of the African National Congress with regards to meeting the deadline but a batch of names on the uploaded list that were kicked out. We are asking the IEC to consider for submission all those candidates who had already been captured in the IEC system but were kicked out. The second thing we are asking is to get to the bottom of why the very last batch was kicked out. We are asking for an investigation and this will get us to the bottom of the issue. This ties in with the question of are we fighting with the IEC? We are not. We respect and continue to have the full confidence in the integrity of the IEC run processes. It continues being one of the most important institutions and hallmarks of our democracy and that is why we hope that a constructive engagement can take place and an investigation on whether there were technological challenges that were not foreseen” -ANC SPOKESPERSON MAHLENGI BHENGU

Robert Kennedy Junior says that the powers that be are jangling the keys of division to distract the American people from the fact that they are buying up Ukraine's farmland and that when he gets into office the payday for BlackRock and Vanguard will be over: "When we give the money to Ukraine we call it a loan. Nobody is going to pay that back. What it does it allows us to put the screws on Ukraine. We sign a contract with them that compels Ukraine to do certain things and one of things is to sell most of its assets for cash, including its farmland. Who do you think the biggest buyer is of that land? Why are we in this war? We know who is making the money from this war. They are doing it right in front of us. The strategy that allows them to get away with it is they keep us all at each others throats. Blacks against whites, Republicans against Democrats, Rural people against urban people. When the rulers of the castle, the king and queen look over the castle wall at the top and see all of their subjects fighting they go back to the dining room and they open champagne and they toast to each other. Because as long as we are all fighting each other we can't see what they are doing. It's like someone who is jangling keys. Look at these keys. And over here they are robbing the bank and nobody is watching them. I have my eye on them. When I get into that office the payday is going to be over for Blackrock and Vanguard."

Tuesday's election set democracy back. But the implementation of Project 2025 is not inevitable – nor is fascism. It all depends on what we do. This stage of the struggle has set the stage for the next phase. Let's take a moment to breathe, assess what went wrong and get back to it! It's time for Resistance 2.0!

🇮🇷|IRGC Did Something the US Government Never Expected: It Wrote a Letter Directly to the American People. The Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps invited journalists to a briefing to present a letter addressed to the American people. Not to Trump. Not to Congress. Not to the Pentagon. To the American people. This is not a diplomatic gesture. This is an act of war on the US government’s monopoly on lies. What the letter says We have not seen the full text. But we know what Iran has been saying for 47 years. And we know what the IRGC has been saying since February. The letter will say: The American people have been lied to. Your government told you the war was about nuclear weapons. It was about Israel. Your government told you Iran was the aggressor. The US and Israel bombed Iran first. Your government told you the blockade was about freedom of navigation. It was about regime change. Your government told you Iran was isolated. Iran is flying to 30 countries, trading with China and Russia, and building railways to Central Asia. Your government told you the war would be quick and cheap. Your diesel is $6.53 a gallon. Your national debt just hit $40 trillion. Your refineries are running at 97% and you haven’t built a new one in 50 years. Your government told you Iran was the threat. Iran has never invaded a single country. Iran has never occupied a single inch of Arab land. Iran has never bombed a school in America. But your government bombed a school in Iran. 168 girls. Ages 6 to 12. And your president said, “I can live with it.” Why the IRGC is doing this Because the US government and its media have blocked every channel of truth. CNN, MSNBC, Fox News, The New York Times, The Washington Post, The Wall Street Journal they all tell you the same story. Iran is the enemy. Israel is the victim. America is the hero. The war is necessary. The blockade is legitimate. They will not report this letter. They will not show this briefing. They will not let you read the words of the IRGC. Because if they did, you would ask questions. You would ask: Why did we bomb a girls’ school? Why did we kill Ali Khamenei? Why did we assassinate Iranian scientists? Why did we steal 6 million barrels of Iranian oil? Why did we target 85% of Iranian oil tankers? Why did we threaten to shut down every Iranian airline? Why did we sanction medicine and food? They cannot answer those questions. So they will ignore the letter. They will ignore the briefing. They will ignore the truth. The IRGC is a military organization. Not a government. Not a foreign ministry. A military force. It does not write letters to foreign publics. It does not hold press briefings for journalists. It does not appeal to the conscience of the enemy’s population. It fights. It builds missiles. It plans operations. It kills Americans who attack Iran. So when the IRGC invites journalists to present a letter to the American people, something has changed. The IRGC has decided that the American people are not the enemy. The IRGC has decided that the American people are hostages of their own government. The IRGC has decided that the American people deserve to know the truth. The IRGC is not afraid of the American people. It is afraid of what the American government is doing to the American people and to the world in their name.
