No podcaster has talked into a mic with more intellectual integrity, humor, stamina and knowledge of the world's flags than @pescami @PescaGist
The Gist@PescaGist

After 12 years + 2 months Mike will be stepping away from The Gist. As he explains in yesterday's episode, podcasting has become video, algorithms, and clips becoming more important than shows. These are the realities of the attention economy, but not really where he wanted to be putting his attention. But keep listening as we say goodbye and launch a new chapter. podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/ben…

'You'll never encounter a Venezuelan in the U.S. who supports Chávez—except in academia. The same is true of Cubans.' Great memoir of escaping authoritarianism, embracing it from a distance, and finding truth, by @iamGermania for @reason reason.com/2026/06/30/my-…

At the University of Colorado, Boulder Students for Justice in Palestine, honored the “man who sacrificed his comfort and his proximity to empire, willingly expending his own liberty in attaining his objective." The man? Mohamed Sabry Soliman who burned to death a Jewish woman...

Give me a break. I worked at Viacom/CBS (now Paramount) for over a decade. Of course, it was +90% Democrats. Everyone knows this. Everyone. And newsrooms in particular vote Democrat to a higher degree than Berkeley, California. And you know what? Fine. I have lots of friends with whom I disagree from my time there. It was a great place, actually. To act as if this claim about bias is controversial, let alone inaccurate, shows that he’s either a liar, an imbecile, or so deeply incurious and tunnel-visioned that you don’t belong anywhere near any job involving information discernment. But he’s got that familiar anchor voice, so we’re supposed to act like he’s not being a complete clown. Give me a break. You people are a mess.

Scott Pelley says Bari Weiss asked 60 Minutes staffers: “Why do you think the country thinks you’re biased?" Pelley: "Why do you think so? Do you have a poll? Is there market research? What are you talking about?" "Because we certainly didn't believe that." Incredible.

NPR being NPR:" A new study suggests that the National Guard's presence has done little to reduce violent crime in Washington, D.C., despite the steep cost.." Eventually you learn there was a "24% reduction in opportunistic crimes, like theft or vehicle break-ins"--the sort of pervasive crime that destroys a sense of order. If you ran for mayor on that 24% reduction you'd have a solid platform.

When I was young, the Southern Poverty Law Center was one of the most respected organizations in the country. To see what it’s become over the past 25 years is shocking. It’s now beyond the point of redemption. thefp.com/p/ayaan-hirsi-…

Zohar Atkins@ZoharAtkins

The NYTimes fired an opinion editor for running a mainstream opinion by a US senator calling for law and order, but now runs opinions by an avowed Maoist, who says Israel is worse than Hamas, Luigi Mangione was a justified vigilante, and stealing is “resistance.” I don’t fault the Times for selling a product people want to buy. But it’s ironic that the product they’re selling by putting profit over principle is “anti-capitalist.” The cynicism knows no bounds.

How does a liberal college student go from volunteering for Elizabeth Warren and climate causes… to chanting “Death to America” in Iran? That’s the question investigative reporter @FPJaySolomon set out to solve when he started looking into the disturbing story of Calla Walsh.

Venezuela used to be much wealthier than Poland, which was suffering under socialism. Then Poland implemented free-market and capitalist principles and enjoyed an economic boom. Venezuela chose socialism, which brought poverty and misery to its people. That’s the difference.

"On too many stories, the press has missed the story. Because we've taken into account the perspective of advocates and not the average American. Or we put too much weight in the analysis of academics or elites, and not enough on you." That changes now. The new CBS Evening News starts Monday at 6:30 p.m. ET on CBS.

Much of the coverage by the BBC and its allies this morning is utterly unhinged. This is not “a coup”. This is not “a right-wing plot”. This is not “Boris Johnson”. This is not “Robbie Gibb”. This is about a taxpayer-funded broadcaster which on everything from immigration to trans, British history to Israel, Donald Trump to our borders, has relentlessly pursued a systemically biased liberal progressive groupthink that represents no more than 15% of the country, and which is now being called out.

I don't think the progressives understand the deep anger and sense of loss over the BBC We *had* something wonderful And you corrupted it with your grubby little politics and you destroyed it. The public are rightly sad and rightly angry

Once in a while I catch NPR in an Uber these days, and HOLY SHIT the cons are totally right about it. It's just pure woke politics stuff nonstop. I swear in 2019 it wasn't like that.
