Israeli police say officers were sent to remove foreign media broadcasting live missile strikes near #Haifa.
“Coastal units were dispatched to handle the situation,” a spokesperson said.
Only propaganda reporters are allowed.

Was thinking about heading to downtown #PDX for the Teargas Tasting.
It seems #Reddit is taking down posts about the #NoKings #Protest from the #Portland Sub.
Anyone know where the best news/messages are being posted?

"Climate.gov, the gateway website for the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (#NOAA)’s Climate Program Office, will imminently no longer publish new content, according to multiple former staff responsible for the site’s content whose contracts were recently terminated…The purge spared two web developers, which [a contractor] says is a concerning sign. The contractor said: 'My bigger worry, long-term, is I would hate to see it turn into a propaganda website for this administration, because that’s not at all what it was.'"

“Noor, who made so many friends on Bluesky since she started an account there in the summer of 2023, had her account suddenly suspended on Friday. Bluesky did not send a reason for the suspension, so while she wrote an appeal, she did not know what actions she was appealing, so as of now it's still suspended. She’s been silenced, and effectively disappeared.”

The #US president is intent on monitoring, targeting and silencing those who do not agree with his #authoritarian agenda.

Censorship is a hallmark of fascism.
Authoritarianism thrives on misinformation and a lack of information.
Attacking the free press, scientists and dissenting voices is often one of the first signs of a failing democracy.
A number of staff at the NIH have signed a letter titled “I Dissent”.
Three are bravely seen on video discussing the reasons they’re taking a huge risk to career & their lives by speaking out.
“Every day I go into the office I wonder what ethical boundary I will be asked to violate.”
“What probably illegal action will I be asked to take?”
“You can get another job, but you cannot get another soul”
I hope people share this far and wide. Say “I dissent!” With them.

"Preserving the Federal Data Trump Is Trying to Purge."

"For months, the research community has been racing to download and store thousands of demographic data sets the government wants to delete because they don’t align with the Trump administration’s ideological views…Over the past five months, more than 3,000 taxpayer-funded data sets —many congressionally mandated— collected by federal agencies including the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, the National Center for Education Statistics, and the Census Bureau, have been caught in the cross fire."

Last week, from @josephinelee: As the culture war heats up and controversies erupt over how we teach #history, this organization continues to face "difficult truths" so that we do not "repeat the past." https://www.texasobserver.org/new-mccarthyism-alliance-for-texas-history/

This is disturbing. I do not care what a journalist said, nor about who. A representative of the President should not be "inquiring" about discipline at a media outlet. This isn't Mother Russia. #censorship

'The Russian company Yandex, by order of the Russian Ministry of Defense, blurred out military facilities in Moscow on its map service, thereby revealing their location. At the same time, all these facilities are displayed on Google Maps. Now, behind the blurred spots, it is perfectly visible where exactly the military-industrial complex enterprises are located.'
If you are afraid of history, then you have no faith in who you are in the present.

#Trump admin deleted a webpage summarizing evidence that “undocumented immigrants are arrested at less than half the rate of native-born U.S. citizens for violent & drug crimes & a quarter the rate of native-born citizens for property crimes.”
Cuz, obviously they can’t have people learning the #truth!

"ZB Med, or the German Library of Medicine, has launched an effort to create an #OpenSource global literature infrastructure which its developers are calling a #PubMed "alternative." They say there's a need to create such a service in case U.S. funding is curtailed or the quantity or quality of its 37 million citations fall victim to politicization, or a DOGE-like chain saw attack of its trained personnel."

Interview: "Worse Than McCarthyism”: Trump’s War Against Universities & Students
"Today, the repression that’s coming out of Washington, D.C., it attacks everything that happens on American campuses.
"The damage that the Trump administration is doing is absolutely beyond the pale and has never, never been equaled in American life with regard to higher education.”

New from Joelle DiPaolo: Texas state representatives spent Memorial Day on the floor of the House scrambling their way through a long list of controversial priority bills like Senate Bill 13, which would further empower parents and school boards to review school libraries’ books for “indecent or profane” content. https://www.texasobserver.org/texas-lege-state-mandates-dei-religion-in-public-ed/

The #fascist #FifthCircuit has issued yet another terrible decision: they say books in public libraries are "government speech," and the government can ban books from libraries on a whim, with no constitutional scrutiny and no recourse for the public.
The current Supreme Court obviously isn't going to overrule this decision.
This is nothing less than outright government #censorship and #authoritarianism.
There's no recovering from this any time soon.

Interesting and well-reasearched #Jacobin Magazine article on a TU Berlin-based project that develops #AI in order to identify #antisemitism in social media, applying a framework that most likely will lead to #censorship of protest against Israels current #Genocide against Palestinians:
“The Decoding Antisemitism project is, to date, the most authoritarian attempt to use antisemitism scholarship to erase from the public domain not only uncomfortable opposition to #Israel but millions of Palestinian voices.”
https://jacobin.com/2025/05/germany-ai-palestine-israel-antisemitism
it happened without any warning or explanation.
