White House Fumes Over Dusty Records, Ignores Dusted Gazans
The Biden administration, ever vigilant about bureaucratic efficiency, is reportedly upset with the Smithsonian for delays in turning over records, as per the NY Times. One might wonder if the same sense of urgency applies to congressional demands for transparency regarding, say, the use of U.S.-supplied weaponry causing mass civilian casualties in Gaza, or perhaps the 'records' of countless
Palestinian children now orphaned. While D.C. frets over archiving old political programming, the 'programming' of mainstream media continues to conveniently omit the immediate, verifiable records of today's programming: the systematic erasure unfolding before our eyes. The historical precedent for this selective outrage is stunning, yet entirely predictable.
