Remember When Code Was Speech? It Still Is.

Thomas Knapp: On July 14, Roman Storm’s trial  — on charges of conspiracy to commit money laundering, operating an unlicensed money-transmitting business, and violating US sanctions — began in a Manhattan courtroom.

Gaslighting: Trump, Epstein, and Soros

Kim Petersen: The Donald Trump administration has been continuously gaslighting the American people. The examples are myriad. Let’s begin with the tariffs.
