  1. La liberté d'expression dans les médias a basculé depuis quelques années: alors que les propos jugés de gauche sont encadrés, voir censurés jusque sur le service public, (l'extrême) droite s'en donne à cœur joie en toute impunité. Seule bulle d'exception: Radio Nova. #Nunez #Barre #Nova

    POURQUOI NUNEZ VEUT LA PEAU DE...

  2. 1/3

    La liberté d’expression, mon gars, c’est comme une bonne bouteille : faut pas la laisser moisir au fond du placard.
    Et là, on a Pierre-Emmanuel Barré (une connaissance à moi, ouais, carrément, il a même préfacé ma BD Carnet de santé) qui fait son boulot de comique : balancer des vannes qui piquent, des blagues qui sentent la poudre, bref de l’humour militant comme on le sait dans cette émission.
    Pas du tricot, pas du sudoku, mais du rire qui gratte là où ça fait mal.

    Et qu’est-ce qu’on voit ? Le ministre de l’Intérieur, le grand manitou des flics, celui qui devrait avoir les yeux rivés sur les gros dossiers terrorisme, trafics, magouilles, bref les vraies embrouilles, trouve le temps de se vexer pour une blague.
    1 blague, bordel ! Comme si la République allait s’écrouler parce qu’un humoriste a sorti une vanne corsée.
    Alors là, faut pas déconner. La plainte contre #Barré, c’est pas seulement disproportionné, c’est carrément grotesque.
    Parce que l’humour, c’est 1 poil à gratter démocratique. Ça fait partie du jeu, ça titille les puissants, ça rappelle que le peuple a le droit de se marrer même quand ça dérange. Et si les ministres commencent à jouer les censeurs, on va finir par se demander si on vit dans une démocratie ou dans une garderie où les blagues sont interdites après 22h.

  3. @philogm y'a une suggestion de tagger #CuveAPisse quand il est question de #Nuñez sur le sujet de la plainte contre #Barré.

    Le ministre n'a pas (encore ?) porté plainte pour insulte publique. Peut être que ya chat-perché, vu que le propos était couvert par "suspicion", "il y aurait" et "présomption d'innocence"...

  4. Sachant que plus de la moitié des policiers votent RN et que le RN aime bien les terroristes islamistes, pourquoi ne peut-on pas dire qu'une partie de la police française c'est Daesh? #Nunez vs #Barré

  8. #workoutoftheday
    I’ve had very little to post about this over the last year since my HIIT style workouts wrecked me for weeks, twice in a row. I’ve been impatiently waiting for my neighborhood seniors’ centre. To re-open with its subsidized fitness classes. This was my second week of #barre fitness and I feel very good about the potential beneifits with a lot of core stability built into the workout. It doesn’t look like much but it feels like a lot is going on!!

  11. Much to the consternation of his Federalist Society colleagues,
    #Leonard #Leo had also begun
    🔥cannibalizing the organization’s own deep-pocketed donors to help finance some of his more personal initiatives
    — and those of his friends.

    In 2010, he co-founded along with Ginni Thomas an organization called "Liberty Central";

    Thomas was the wife of his good friend Justice Clarence Thomas and they used a $500,000 donation from Dallas real estate billionaire #Harlan #Crow,
    also a donor to the Federalist Society.

    The group billed itself as “America’s Public Square,” promising to preserve freedom and reaffirm the core principles of the Founding Fathers.

    The following year, he joined the board of "Chicago Freedom Trust", which had been set up by manufacturing billionaire #Barre #Seid as a pass-through
    to anonymously channel funds to initiatives he wished to support
    and to take advantage of the recent #Citizens #United ruling shielding big donors from disclosure.

    Leo met Seid through #Eugene #Meyer, president of the Federalist Society, who envisioned the wealthy manufacturing tycoon as a potential donor to the law society.

    Instead, Leo cultivated him as a funder of his own dark-money network.

    The move brought Leo into contact with other central figures of the conservative dark-money world
    — like #Whitney #Ball and #Adam #Meyerson,
    the main actors behind #DonorsTrust, who were responsible for anonymously funneling hundreds of millions of dollars to various conservative grassroot groups,
    including some linked to the far right.

    He also used his influence there to divert funds to Opus Dei, with the pass-through soon becoming a regular donor to the Oakcrest School.

    As Leo’s access to the world of dark money grew, his Opus Dei friends the Corkerys became critical as a front for the tens of millions of dollars streaming through Leo’s hidden network of nonprofits.

    Neil and Ann had provided crucial cover for him during the campaign to secure the confirmations of John Roberts and Samuel Alito in 2005,

    hiding the hundreds of thousands of dollars spent to influence public opinion.

    As more dark money poured in starting in 2010, they began to do the same again through various nonprofits such as the "Wellspring Committee" and the "Judicial Crisis Network".

    Their importance only grew following Scalia’s death,
    as Leo pumped his network for ever larger sums.

    In the weeks after Scalia’s death, the Corkerys began opening the purse strings in what would eventually become a 🔥$17 million campaign to stop Obama from replacing Scalia
    and instead ensure a reliable conservative filled the vacancy.

    It was just the start.

    Over the next five years, Leo and the Corkerys would oversee the transfer of almost 🔥$600 million of dark money to right-wing causes.

    Their hidden ecosystem would eventually enable a conservative takeover of the Supreme Court that would disassemble
    hard-won civil rights and turn back the clock on issues close to their hearts
    — on abortion,
    on affirmative action,
    and on vast swathes of what they saw as a progressive agenda.

  12. #Leonard #Leo’s status as the world’s third most powerful figure soon made him a rich man.

    During his time at the Federalist Society,
    he had hardly been a pauper,
    bringing in around $400,000 a year.

    But with six children attending The Heights and Oakcrest, the two Opus Dei schools that charged up to $30,000 tuition annually per student,
    and a burgeoning taste for good food and expensive wines,
    it didn’t take long to burn through his salary.

    But his life had taken a lavish turn after Trump’s victory
    and his appointment as an unpaid advisor to the president on judicial appointments.

    The dramatic uptick in his personal fortune dovetailed with his joining a for-profit entity called "CRC Advisors", alongside another CIC board member #Greg #Mueller.

    Mueller had spearheaded the "National Organization for Marriage" vitriolic public relations strategy,
    and #CRC quickly established itself as the go-to advisory firm for the dark-money network of nonprofit entities that Leo had helped set up over the years.

    Once again, the Corkery name was all over the money flow.

    The majority of CRC’s income came from
    👉 "The 85 Fund",
    a dark money non-profit that
    ⚠️ Leo repurposed to fund conservative causes nationwide,
    and
    💥that fund paid $34 million in fees to his new advisory firm over a single two-year period.

    As the money rolled in, Leo began to enjoy some of the same luxuries as the billionaires he had spent years courting.

    For most of his three decades in Washington, Leo had led a modest home life,
    living for years in a small apartment in the Randolph Towers complex in downtown Arlington,
    before moving to a single-story five-bedroom family home in suburban McLean in 2010.

    But in the years since 2016, he had spent millions of dollars on two new mansions in Maine,
    bought four new cars,
    and hired a wine buyer and locker at Morton’s, an upscale steakhouse three blocks from the Catholic Information Center.

    It was only a foretaste of what was to come.

    ➡️ In 2020, Leo stepped back from his duties at the Federalist Society to focus on the
    dark-money network he had fostered as a side hustle during his time there.

    With him, he took one of the Federalist Society’s biggest donors:
    a manufacturing billionaire from Chicago called
    #Barre #Seid, who was Jewish by heritage but who shared many of Leo’s conservative views.

    🧨Over two decades, Seid had pumped at least $775 million into campaigns for libertarian and conservative causes,
    quietly transforming himself into one of the most important donors on the political right.

    Almost ninety, Seid had decided to leave his money continuing that work
    — and concluded that Leo was the man to oversee that largesse.

    🔥Leo had betrayed his bosses, who had tasked him with wooing the billionaire as a potential donor for the Federalist Society.

    Instead, Leo had cultivated him for his own network.

    Seid signed his business over to Leo, giving him control over a
    🔥$1.6 billion war chest and
    👉transforming him from a proxy for
    dark-money donors into a donor himself.
