Middleboro Review and so on

  Hi there, It’s Monday. Over 8 million people from around the world joined No Kings protests, making it the largest protest in modern history. Over 200,000 join the flagship protest in Minnesota, and millions more gathered at over 3,300 additional protests. And this weekend, the man everyone was protesting called for regime change in Iran, threatening a series of war crimes if he doesn’t get what he wants. Trump’s war with Iran is not simply about deterrence, defense, or nuclear containment—it has increasingly been framed, by Trump himself, as an effort to reshape or replace Iran’s government. Trump has openly called regime change “the best thing that could happen” and encouraged Iranians to overthrow their leadership, while U.S. strikes have targeted key figures and infrastructure tied to the state.

  In case you missed it, The Associated Press is in court against the Donald Trump administration after being barred from key presidential events simply for applying its editorial standards — raising alarming questions about whether access to the president can be withheld based on viewpoint. When news organizations are punished for their reporting, it isn’t just one outlet that suffers — it’s our democracy. The media’s ability to ask hard questions depends on open access, not on access that’s dependent on pleasing those in power. Journalists and media leaders must speak up: reject restricted access regimes disguised as “pool policy,” call out retaliation for unfavorable coverage, and insist on transparent, non-discriminatory rules for press access. Add your name to demand that media outlets defend press freedom — ensure the White House cannot punish journalism for its point of view — and uphold the public’s right to the truth SUBSCRIBE TO CIVIC SHOUT & JOIN WITH OTHERS TO DEFEN...
