But sure, blame the magic, third-eye radio man for the decline of basic trust in institutions.

Biden’s Justice Department promised to support a strong journalist shield law. So why hasn’t it?
Sen. @RonWyden calls @TheJusticeDept's delays "extremely frustrating, and frankly unacceptable."

"...you can all but smell the fear on the streets. Even in zip codes where violent crime was once unheard of, residents are starting to sweat."

Netanyahu's reaction to his police's abuse of Pegasus reminds me of Merkel's reaction to NSA mass surveillance: when the victims were "merely" the global public, she dutifully papered over it.
Only when her own name was discovered on the target list did it become a true scandal.
