Freedom of the press only exists when the press says things some member of the ruling class wants said. Otherwise it evaporates like a morning fog.

Five FOIA requests have been filed.
Three with the State Department. One with Treasury/OFAC. One with the FBI.
We’re looking for the missing bureaucratic handoff: who first put Autistici/Inventati into the U.S. sanctions pipeline, when, and on whose referral?
The investigation is now also a public records docket. As agencies acknowledge, process, deny or release records, we’ll publish the paper trail and update the investigation.

NEW REPORT LIVE
We’ve spent the last week digging, cross-checking, archiving posts and reconstructing the sequence that led to the August 26 designation of Autistici/Inventati
The resulting investigation follows a campaign against “Antifa” as it moved through outside advocates, political influencers, the White House, Congress and U.S. counterterrorism policy before an Italian privacy collective was sanctioned.
This is not a theory-of-everything graphic or a pile of screenshots. It is an attempt to document who said what, when they said it, where those arguments moved next, and what the government ultimately did.

Pentagon Spokesperson Admits There’s a Secret Blacklist of Journalists
When pressed about the Iran war, a CENTCOM press official threatened to put an Intercept reporter on a “list of people to disregard.”
Nick Turse, August 24 2026
Excerpt: "Under self-styled #WarSecretary #PeteHegseth, the U.S. military has mounted the most aggressive assault on #PressFreedom in memory, from an effort to outlaw 'unauthorized' questions from reporters to imposing unconstitutional restrictions on journalists’ access to the Pentagon. Hegseth has compared reporters to 'Pharisees,' who in the Bible call Jesus’s teachings into question, while the secretary’s minions regularly hurl insults at reporters. This is part of a broader war on press freedoms by the #TrumpAdministration, that includes demonizing #journalists; filing so-called strategic lawsuits against public participation, or #SLAPPs, to intimidate and silence criticism through expensive legal proceedings; and employing grand jury subpoenas and search warrants to intimidate reporters.
" 'Threatening journalists with placement on a #blacklist in retaliation for reporting the government doesn’t like is as #unconstitutional as it gets,' said Seth Stern, the director of advocacy for Freedom of the Press Foundation. 'This should put to rest the Pentagon’s prior claims that it’s anti-press policies — like its infamous requirement that reporters sign pledges to only print authorized information — are somehow content neutral.'
"Allee revealed the existence of the blacklist after this reporter was left on hold for more than two hours and complained about a long-standing lack of transparency by the command. In calls earlier that morning, Maj. Emma Thompson, #CENTCOM ’s media operations chief, repeatedly refused to answer questions about Iranian attacks on U.S. bases across the Middle East, disparate U.S. casualty counts, and medical evacuation flights: 'Nothing for you,' 'Don’t have anything for you,' 'No comment.' Thompson then hung up on this reporter mid-question.
#TheIntercept called back multiple times until Allee picked up the phone. 'They’re not going to answer your call if you just keep calling and calling,' he told this reporter."
