Burma, America, The World, Art, Literature, Political Economy through the eyes of a Permanent Exile. "We must take sides. Neutrality helps the oppressor, never the oppressed. Sometimes we must interfere. . . There is so much injustice and suffering crying out for our attention . . . writers and poets, prisoners in so many lands governed by the left and by the right."

I am currently reading Jim Acosta's Enemy of the People--
https://www.amazon.com/Enemy-People-Dangerous-Truth-America-ebook/dp/B088FRHPP9/ref=sr_1_1?dib=eyJ2IjoiMSJ9.CswWsRJMlYvYAkoWseZEoP8F4_2Ip6o-gZEy_rKlhDIGK6zQgwdCb5YnVooXqesoQsf_DxwlRThQ0i66Ng_DFQ.6pSNmXAt__OOme0vYDPCiS160rndoZcWuwO6phhzADk&dib_tag=se&hvadid=693644718703&hvdev=c&hvexpln=67&hvlocphy=9007767&hvnetw=g&hvocijid=13901773027723046338--&hvqmt=e&hvrand=13901773027723046338&hvtargid=kwd-647566908901&hydadcr=22591_13531179&keywords=jim+acosta+enemy+of+the+people&mcid=7ae78aba3474314d8a0ff6eb202c56d2&qid=1741443726&sr=8-1
A day by day account of Trump 1.00
I highly recommend it.
I, like everyone else, I assume, was riveted by the madness.
At that time I got on Twitter--this was when it was still owned by Jack Dorsey--bc many critics of T., including brilliant cartoonists, were on it.
Reading Acosta brings it all back--and shows the connection between 1.00 and 2.00
It also shows Acosta's commitment to The Truth--and belief that no one is above the law.
I got a 2nd hand hard copy that was in very good condition, withdrawn from Toronto Public Library.
Acosta is now on Substack.
I also bought Bob Woodward's Rage--
nore later.
