Yep fuck Sinclair broadcasting too, but as you can see, the only news covering this is from local Indiana news reporting.

Yeah fuck the intercept, not really the point.
My point is that while big news networks are fucking around it's the locals news and individuals who are getting fucked over the most by this bullshit who are actually trying to make sure this shit doesn't get buried
True, there was not a whole lot of mainstream media coverage of assange but there were journalists from places like the intercept and I believe rolling stone or vice also covering it.
In this case, and many cases all over the country lately, I'm finding that tiny local news outlets are doing a better job keeping us informed than mainstream media or even larger less mainstream news outlets.
Also realized that if this was a case of spying it would seem very unlikely he would have a lawyer at his residence while it was being raided but who tf knows. Not us.
What are you talking about. State secrets are well protected by Elon Musk
Yeah, if only we had a free press that could keep the public informed about matters so we could know what the fuck is actually going on anymore.
It's especially weird the university just didn't release a statement about it or anything.
It definitely could go either way
If we actually still had a free press, you would expect this to be getting some coverage and for there to be some kind of statement from the University's lawyers saying they were cooperating with the FBI if this guy was legitimately wanted for shady dealings.
It's fucking sad that we all read this and have to think, is this the FBI handling a legitimate threat or is this why DHS keeps complaining about Civil Rights Offices standing in their way.
Yeesh nvm. I need night nights

Funny thing is there are plenty of Republicans in Louisiana who never felt that way.
"Now, let’s be political. I’m a Republican. I represent the amazing state of Louisiana and as a patriotic American, I want President Trump’s policies to succeed in making America and Americans more secure, more prosperous, healthier," Cassidy said Thursday while leading Kennedy's confirmation hearing.
"But if there is someone that is not vaccinated because of policies or attitudes you bring to the department and there is another 18-year-old who dies of a vaccine-preventable disease, helicoptered away, God forbid dies, it’ll be blown up in the press."
Cassidy was one of several senators who was skeptical about Kennedy's stance on vaccinations, also noting Kennedy has changed his tune on the subject during the hearing.
"You are telling us in the Senate this week that you support vaccines. What are you going to tell them?" Cassidy said. "Now, your past of undermining vaccine confidence with unfounded or misleading arguments is concerning to me."
Cassidy, a medical doctor, shared a story of an 18-year-old patient brought to his hospital with hepatitis B who had to undergo an "invasive, quarter-of-a-million-dollar surgery" that would continue to cost $50,000 in hospital bills annually.
"As I saw her take off, I was so depressed, a $50 vaccine could have prevented this all," Cassidy said. "Ever since, I have tried to do everything I can so that I do not ever have to see another parent lose their child due to a vaccine-preventable illness."
There has always been plenty I disagreed with Cassidy on, but Medicaid and vaccines he always made decisions informed by his background as a doctor. I always had a lot of respect for him for that reason. I was glad he was on the Senate committee deciding RFKs fitness.
I watched the hearings. I heard RFK say things that I know Cassidy doesn't agree with. I wrote Cassidy a letter saying I know you understand how dangerous this is and I am glad to have someone like you in the position to make such an important decision.
He was the deciding vote. All he had to do was say what he already knew and believed. He didn't, and I lost the respect I had for him.
Not because he's a Republican. Not because of everything else we disagree on. Because I know for a fact he knew how dangerous RFK would be, and yet his vote is the only reason his fitness was approved.
Pretty positive there is no actual plan to improve cybersecurity, it's a facade to quietly hand over power and control to the national guard to keep people in line.
The same day the emergency order was signed by the governor, he announced he was restructuring GOHSEP (governors office of Homeland Security and Emergency Preparedness) under the National guard as part of his state DOGE plan to cut waste and save money.
The emergency order grants the director of GOHSEP authority to act however they seem fit to handle cybersecurity. But on the same day the director of GOHSEP was given a new title, and is no longer director.
The "acting director" is now Louisiana National Guard Brig. Gen. Jason P. Mahfouz
