In the time following 9/11, even conservatives voiced skepticism of the proposed Department of Homeland Security, writes Ta-Nehisi Coates. Now, Trump seeks to cleanse, purge, and expand this so-called homeland.

Ta-Nehisi Coates serves as an executive producer and interviewee in this film exploring a high-profile crime in 1983 Baltimore and the prosecutorial misconduct that targeted three innocent teenagers.
This đ€Ź is who attacked #TaNehisiCoates for writing about the plight of #Palestinians in the #WestBank & accused Coates of being an extremist. #CBS found #Dokoupil acted inappropriately & said his interview âdid not meet editorial standards.â
But sure yeah give him #anchor.

#TonyDokoupil is the guy whose aggressive interview of #TaNehisiCoates re #Israel was publicly reprimanded by his old bosses at #CBS as not meeting their standards. Of course #BariWeiss gave him their top anchor job.

CBS says Tony Dokoupil will take over at the beginning of next year as anchor of its flagship âCBS Evening Newsâ broadcast. He moves from the mornings, where he has been part of the anchor team for âCBS Morningsâ since 2019. He represents the first major hire for Bari Weiss, the Free Press editor installed this fall as CBS News editor-in-chief following the network's corporate takeover by Paramount. Dokoupil faces a major challenge competing against the dominant David Muir of ABC's âWorld News Tonight,â which has nearly double the CBS audience. Dokoupil replaces the pairing of John Dickerson and Maurice DuBois, who both left the network recently.
This was such a nice listen: FIRE IN EVERY DIRECTION with Tareq Baconi & Ta-Nehisi Coates
"we bring you the launch of Fire in Every Direction: A Memoir, Tareq Baconiâs singular coming-of-age story about queer and political awakening from within the Palestinian diaspora. Baconi was joined by Ta-Nehisi Coates in a conversation about personal and political memoir."
They also read a few pieces from the book, and it sounds beautiful, IMO.

This has been on my mind, especially since the Charlie Kirk murder: Truth and Reconciliation. There can be no reconciliation without truth.
