Haha .... new ep of @Succession_HBO hits “pivot to video” AND digital media unionization drive. I FEEL HEARD!
2/ Eeeeeesh. They went right to the shutdown pretty fast.
3/ a good dramatic summary of the basic point, news orgs need to own themselves. what I mean is that the ownership, control, center of gravity needs to be within the organization itself. Otherwise that’s always a possibility.

can anyone find really **any** campaign contributor who has ever been “or worsed” by anyone? Or frankly even harassed? this isn’t really my thing. but we have a system of largely unconstrained political giving on theory that in politics money is speech.
2/ Yet speech is by every definition **inherently, definitionally public**. That is what speech is. Yet this is an increasing demand of the right. The right to contribute money without limitation but also the right to do it secretly.
3/ As I said, speech is inherently public. But even the premise here is bogus. The idea that anyone is being endangered is just baseless. And even public shaming is all but nonexistent. That may happen with mega-givers: the Kochs et al. But in most cases that operate outside ...

One eye popping number, which suggest voter turnout in 2020 cld be highest in a century. Full 81% of voter are either extremely or very focused on the election. Previous two cycles it was ~60%
2/ Note data only goes back to September 2011. But pattern suggests it was about 60 a month earlier.
3/ Basically every question on this page is eye popping.

Cuccinelli: That statue of liberty poem was about "people coming from Europe."
2/ Understandably getting lost in the shuffle here is that Cucc is arguing that "wretched" didn't mean "wretched". He appears to be saying it referred to people who weren't part of the nobility or simply one of the lower classes/commoners
3/ in other words, the doors were open for Tom in addition to Lord Grantham.

So Trump has caved, agreeing to Congressional Democrats' demand to fund government agencies for (evidently) three weeks while negotiations on border or immigration measures proceed. One story on this from @burgessev @AndrewRestuccia & @JakeSherman politico.com/story/2019/01/…
2. That was 35 days of hardship for federal employees and contractors; 35 days of disruption to government functions, from criminal investigations to international diplomacy to air traffic control; and 35 days of reckless rhetoric about invasions & emergencies, all for nothing.
3. Yet Trump's ignominious surrender is not necessarily a victory for the Democrats or the country. The deal to reopen government agencies is only for three weeks. We could be right back where we were last night when that time is up.

On Oct 26 2006 Congress passed The Secure Fence Act 120 STAT. 2638 PUBLIC LAW 109–367 with 283 votes in the House & 80 in the Senate, including unanimous Democratic support. This included $20 billion in funding for multi layer fencing along about 600 miles of the US-Mexico border
This wasn't a solid 600 miles of continuous fencing along the border, this was bits and pieces, mostly erected with surplus Marston Mats used by the Military to laydown in areas that the ground isn't solid enough to handle landing gear, the military has mountains of it.
in 2007 Congress made clear it didn't really mean what it said. The new law was amended to make fence building optional. so you ended up with very little fencing and $20 billion pretty much unaccounted for, dispersed to heavens knows where. No one was held accountable for the $$

1/ As Viacom nears the end of its independence (with a reluctant buyer paying less than market value, 30% the company's peak share price), it's worth examining how it got here

Viacom is rightly criticized for its many mistakes, but it was also bound to be hit hardest by digital.
2/ It had the youngest audiences in an age where the younger the viewer, the more rapid the ratings decline; the largest network portfolio at a time when the bundle was ready to burst; and many of the most sizable audiences in a time when viewership was rapidly fragmenting
3/ In addition, Viacom focused on content that’s simply better served online: music (YouTube, Vevo, Spotify) and music culture (Pitchfork, Vibe, Earmilk), babysit entertainment (Netflix, Amazon), pop and counter culture (Facebook, Vice, TMZ), and so on.

Trump Hotels' website still lists Trump SoHo New York among its properties in the Our Hotels menu. Select its name though to access its page and there's a message about it being renamed

Two errors in the 2nd graf of Breitbart's Trump Hotel DC article:
-holdings aren't out of @realDonaldTrump's hands: trust isn't blind & he can profit from it
-Trump Org told Congress it was estimating foreign receipts—not auto donating in full
