The Hound 11/18

Hi there,

It’s Tuesday. Today we’re talking about Trump’s politicization of the military, the sudden resignation of the acting FEMA chief amid widespread criticism of disaster-response failures, and more.

We’re also tracking the commentary of right-wing personality Nick Fuentes, who continues to spread antisemitic conspiracy theories. All too often, media outlets fail to name his bigotry explicitly, implicitly giving him legitimacy.

🖊️ Add your name to demand the media explicitly condemn Fuentes’ antisemitic hate speech — and stop amplifying extremist bigotry under the guise of “provocative commentary”.

Read about this, and more, with today’s stories:

Until next time,

Harry from The Hound
