Axios has an interesting article today [SEE HERE] about the success of Bari Weiss and her wife Nellie Bowles website launch on the back of the Twitter Files release.
Axios – Bari Weiss, the New York Times columnist turned independent newsletter writer, has hired ten full-time employees and over a dozen contractors to help build her new media company, The Free Press, Weiss told Axios in an interview.
[…] Weiss launched The Free Press last Thursday, four days ahead of schedule, to capitalize on the media coverage around her “Twitter Files” reporting.
In less than a week, The Free Press has accrued more than 105,000 followers on Twitter and its flagship newsletter has added an additional 25,000 free and paid subscribers.
Weiss’ Twitter following itself has exploded in that time, growing from more than 500,000 followers to more than 900,000 in less than a week.
Last year, Marketwatch reported that Weiss made over $800,000 from her newsletter alone, which at the time had 14,000 paid subscribers. The newsletter has more than double that number of paid subscribers today.
The big picture: Weiss, alongside other independent writers like Matt Taibbi, are gaining newfound attention with Elon Musk’s ownership of Twitter. (read more)
Keep watching….
According to the latest conservative headlines, TikTok is bad because the social media app tracks users via Chinese servers; billionaire Elon Musk is the savior of all things speech related; Florida Governor Ron DeSantis will be the savior of the Republic for 2024; approved republican candidates are the way forward for the future; and support for Ukraine spending has never been higher.
Ignore that all U.S. social media apps track users on U.S. servers with U.S. government access; not a single Twitter File release has shown the documented activity within the intelligence community portal to the platform; billionaire donors and Wall Street multinational interests are funding DeSantis management and branding efforts; Ukraine funds are cycling back to U.S. politicians; and for some curious reason the voices of the Brazilian people are mysteriously missing from ‘free speech‘ Twitter.
.
Yup…..the fix is in.
the irony is that for an indie journalist outfit, there are SO MANY stories out there just happily being left on the floor by “the press” and their strange disinterest….
government colludes with company to censor political dissent? a pedo dies in prison mysteriously and no one knows where the client list is? the snotty 30-something banker steals billions and funnels it to politicians? ukraine funds siphoned off by shadowy entities to feed back to billionaires? people caught on camera stuffing ballots and being paid?
these are the types of stories that “journalists” once salivated over as it would cement their legacy in the halls of eternity. bizarre…
Sounds like you summed things up perfectly again.
That suspicious cat is wise beyond his years
Be they nine lives worth or otherwise
Sorry, kind of lost interest in the whole deal when the piece mentioned her wife
It could have been worse … it could have been her trans husband … Chaz, the local Librarian
Does anyone know if she’s pro drag queen shows for kids or the other lesbians who are against them for being groomers.
A woman who tried marriage with a man (Jason Kass) but found she preferred women. Had affairs with several and then ‘married’ Nellie Bowles. Now ‘they’ have a daughter. It doesn’t say what means they used to achieve that goal.
Turkey baster party?
She also dated Kate McKinnon the former pretty funny though politically pretty reprehensible SNL cast member.
Whatever was used you know the egg had to be fertilized with the sperm from a man with XY DNA. Most likely a man the child will never know as her biological father.
Those dollars are the means.
I was wondering the same thing.
Based on her picture, as a man, I’m not feeling a sense of loss.
Virgin, as in…?
I’m married with two kids, dude. That you try to read something into my surname is a bit cringe.
You’re the one who sexualized like an adolescent.
Lol. Guess I hit a nerve.
You beat me to it. I have no time to spend on degenerate perverts.
well Greenwald is “gay”, so there’s not much choice on this topic either
Near as I know Greenwald does not parade his homosexuality even though he is also with a homosexual partner (who I refuse to call husband). But perhaps I am not familiar enough with Greenwald. I did watch Tucker’s interview with him when he (Tucker) was invited to Greenwald’s home in Brazil.
Bingo!
You and me both. Bari may be one half of a lesbian pair but her lesbian partner is not a wife. Homosexuals wanting to solidify their relationships should have stuck to civil unions and left marriage alone. But like I heard someone say, “they have to borrow from normal.”
LOL same here!
I read some of her stuff after NYT and she parted ways and didn’t like her. Never knew she was gay though until Sundance’s article.
Ditto.👍🏻
What moron would pay for her newsletter? Must be all those NYC Liberal Lesbos.
“Weiss made over $800,000 from her newsletter alone, which at the time had 14,000 paid subscribers.”
The NWO, Globalists, DNC, and Repub Elites likely “subscribed.”
Obviously the newsletter was a front for getting her paid through money laundering.
sharp eye
Another well influenced platform.
A Twitter affliate?
Can we say z-i-o-n-i-s-t?
Try: J-I-H-A-D-I-S-T!!
There, I fixed it.
T-A-L-M-U-D-I-S-T
There, why Islam even exists
Code word for “Jew”/
Not all Jews are like her.
What’s your point, that she’s Jewish?! I am, too. Any comments for me?
What’s your religion?!
Stop
Starting to look like the supply chain for bondo and spray paint is running full bore. Not sure how inflation will affect it.
“Last year, Marketwatch reported that Weiss made over $800,000 from her newsletter alone”
Never forget this is all printed money, all channeled through corporate/government deals, all backed by wealth extracted from us – wage earning taxpayers whose income after taxes goes to pay the expenses of daily life – all of which are inflated by the very same corporate fascists.
They laugh at us . They mock us. Time has long passed for this putrid elite to meet reality. I am beyond disgusted.
We live in a fake reality world. These are just ordinary people that we never meet.
Truman Show. We just need to find ‘the door’.
“Last year, Marketwatch reported that Weiss made over $800,000 from her newsletter alone”
From what? AI readers and fake advertisers? This all sounds like we are being directed to the other cattle car.
From what? AI readers and fake advertisers?
Yes. As multinationals become global monopolies, advertising budgets serve as the means to fund propaganda for the State, which further grows and protects their monopoly.
Corporate Fascism.
…seed $$$ from her New York Democrat Corporate Sponsors!
I prefer to roam about the internet stopping by many sites from around the world to get as many different perspectives and insights as possible till a theme comes forward that suggests I have found the truths of the matter I am exploring. I never consider my thoughts as 100% accurate and correct, I always leave room for doubt.
However, I still don’t like the Obamas, both Clintons and a host of other people! Bias is everywhere, I am no different.
That is why our greatest problem and present threat to our country rests in the integrity of our voting system. I am surprised so few are fighting for this issue. If we fail here, then it may be time to become a “prepper” for civil war would be just around the corner when a majority of citizens have their ‘wake up’ call.
None of the Main Stream Media cover the voting issues. Almost none of the “conservative media cover our voting issues. I quit many of those conservative sites; all they did is give us GOPe news spiced up a bit. We have the Treehouse and Gateway Pundit and Revolver. What other sites cover MAGA issues?
American Thinker comes to mind.
“However, I still don’t like the Obamas, both Clintons and a host of other people! Bias is everywhere, I am no different.”
That doesn’t make you biased
That makes you a good judge of character
… and lack thereof
It won’t take a majority. Only ~10% of the colonists actually participated in the Revolutionary War. There’s really no telling how close we are right now.
Twitter could go away tonight and never come back and America would continue just fine.
America’s priority and what America has to take care of, post haste, is the state / local governments and elections.
And who do we look for, the guilty parties, when we think about election integrity in 2020 and 2022? Who made the task of election integrity far more difficult? How about the Secretaries of State and the Attorney Generals and a few Governors who vetoed changes by the state legislatures to make election laws more fair and more equal? How about some names for the future? Let’s see. Jocelyn Benson, Dana Nessel, Gretchen Whitmer, Katie Hobbs, Mark Brnovich, Doug Ducey, Tom Wolf, Kathy Boockvar, Josh Shapiro, Brad Raffensperger. Feel free to add to the list.
Jena Griswold.
What kind of person would protect the names and documents on WHO SPECIFICALLY ordered the Code Red on free speech prior to an election!
The Controlled Opposition. That’s who!!
never mind…
Glowing… reviews.
I see what you did there. 😉
limited hangout?
How much is Elon paying her?
$800K. I guess Barie has been a cheap date.
Anyone missing any luggage, containing retired old men’s clothing, from the airport carousel? If so, I think I have a suspect.
Is this going to be another platform to spin the news in such a way so The Powers That Be like it?
A platform such as Axios?
Yep. Fake freedom of speech. Three Card Monte. Funny mirrors. Clowns. Magic acts.
Prognosticators of prevarications and puffery!
IC plants seem to be everywhere. The cost of all the psy-ops doesn’t matter, does it? The money that pays for them is simply printed whenever they need more.
Also the inevitable weaponization of the Vaxx against PDJT is beginning.
Too bad we don’t have a “Phooey!” cat meme.
Musk collaborator? I’m not so sure that is a good thing. I guess time will tell when the players reveal their true stripes.
If this entire scam was a work of hollywood fiction, it would be a best seller. Oh wait!
I ain’t buying it.
Hollywood knows not to touch it. They were, after all, the most influential communists of the mid to late 20th century. No doubt, the big production studios have their own IC consultants to help them shape the right fiction. They probably have Adam Schifftless’ direct line on speed dial.
Profiting from the destruction of our country.
Their money still was/is coming to an end in the current dollar system….They have stole so much money there is no way to pay the government obligations. They can’t print it away……Just wonder what kind of assets they are shifting their stolen loot to before replacing the dollar with digital. Of course our dollars won’t equal a digital dollar. This whole elaborate scam is to coverup that they destroyed the first system and to keep their assets and power. Killing us just makes the whole thing more manageable. Their useful idiots have been promised much to go along although I suspect many don’t know about the depopulation or that they will be betrayed…..Why do you need media people in their great reset.
Her wife…something is amiss in this description.
Exactly. The XY is missing.
Bari Weiss. Who are her “owners?” Who funded her shiny new website???? The DNC and their operartives as well as the GOPe?????
Bari Weiss. Who are her “owners?” Who funded her shiny new website???? The DNC and their operatives as well as the GOPe?????
Barr is in the Mix according to Sundance.
A lesbian former nyt writer doesn’t inspire confidence. Who is funding her?
Just another Brietbart and Drudge Report propaganda outlet funded by weird Democrats.
“Her wife”= can easily ignore the rest
I am profoundly grateful more than one Treeper voiced this same thought.
How can one trust morally bankrupt people who critique the left when they also have a warped concept of truth? I have avoided social media and have no regrets. I look for complete primary sources rather than the mainstream media and with my knowledge of history and language and ability to reason carefully can arrive at an honest evaluation that gives me a far better insight than from reporters.
Ukraine funds are cycling back to U.S. politicians;
Oregonian politicians can be bought cheap, but hey, a seat is a seat. So it doesn’t sound like much but FTX bombed us with a last minute $500,000 to help re-elect the most unpopular governor in America’s party.
A senior FTX executive has been revealed as the reported mystery donor behind a massive $500,000 contribution to the Democratic Party of the American state of Oregon.
According to local reports, the Oregon Democrats initially told state election officials that the $500,000 donation was from Prime Trust, a crypto-focused fintech firm in Nevada.
However, on Nov. 1, the party director revealed that the true source behind the donation was FTX engineering director Nishad Singh, who has been the state Democratic Party’s fourth-largest donor since November 2020.
https://cointelegraph.com/news/ftx-exec-revealed-as-big-donor-to-oregon-democrats-following-misidentification
Our very own 4th largest donor. Hmm.
It’s not clear if this donation was part of or above the $14million Singh and SBF had financed the Protect Our Future PAC with. This PAC took on a newly created congressional district, because hey, seats are seats and small states are cheap.
Bankman-Fried’s Protect Our Future super PAC also allegedly donated between $8 million and $10 million to the campaign of Carrick Flynn — a political novice and family friend running in a newly created U.S. House of Representatives district outside Portland. (from the same article as above.)
He lost, but not before he got the attention of the indigenous liberals who were sufficiently flummoxed to spill some information about Carrick Flynn:
Flynn spent years studying the risks and benefits of artificial intelligence through his work at a U.K.-based organization called The Center for Governance of AI. It’s an affiliate of another group, the Center for Effective Altruism, which serves as a nerve center of the effective altruism movement.
https://www.opb.org/article/2022/04/25/what-does-a-crypto-tycoon-want-with-oregons-new-congressional-district/
Another effective altruist! I expect he’ll be back, unless the scam of altruism with other people’s money goes bust.
I’ll take a side of scam with that word salad, please
The minute she used the phrase “a new McCartheism” I tuned out. Anyone that ignorant deserves no followers. Not at all interested in NewYawk style milquetoast conservatism at best.
Personally I tuned out when I read the words “her wife” and saw the picture combined with the knowledge Weiss is a leftist.
Yeah… I have been a Weiss subscriber($5/month) for about seven months and it is about to end. She is red-pilled for cash only. Like you say SD… Power leading to money for democrats. Nellie’s TGIF was perfectly snarky against democrats until precisely having a baby which was around the mid-terms. Both ladies haven’t said a bad word about Trump until then.
I give up. I don’t see a way out of any of this. I was getting a tiny bit of happiness seeing Musk open Twitter up but now apparently even that is fake. I get treehouse updates via email but I don’t read the articles like I used to for this website or any website. Our country has been taken over by communists fascists whatever they are so what difference does any of it make? We have been taken over without firing a shot. DC is so messed up I don’t think it matters if Desantis or Trump or whoever is President. I don’t see any solution but divine intervention and I don’t see that coming. No mere mortal can fix the evil in our government. Sorry to be a Debbie downer but that’s the way I see things since our President and our elections were stolen from us. And even if they weren’t, elections are not going to fix the unelected and unaccountable and unfireable bureaucrats in all the three letter agencies who are the ones who are really ruling this country along with their pals in the WEF and CCP etc.
We have been taken over by a far more sinister force than the communists, who also happen to be in charge at the pleasure of their leader. The father of lies is in control of this government.
I hear you, Rhcrest. I love SD’s articles which are so enlightening . I also read American Thinker, American Greatness, and The Gateway Pundit. Yes, the Patriots are sick and tired of the Dem Communist takeover. But NOTHING so far has taken them on and taken them out. and I’m not sure there is anything we can do since the DOJ, FBI, DHS and worst of all, the LSM (due to their payments from the DS)is all in their back pockets.
On the other hand, i keep praying that we will turn this dark evil cabal around. What is that saying? At the depth of despsair (despare?) hope begins.
Yes I read the same exact websites. I used to read them voraciously but now I find I’m just not as interested anymore. I glance at the headlines and will read an occasional article but not like I used to. I do indeed feel despair. Our country is in a stranglehold that is eating us alive and I want to scream on my Facebook page but people will just think I’m crazy. Meanwhile people on Facebook continue posting pictures of what they had for dinner completely oblivious to everything going on. Once in a while I will post an article from one of the websites that I read and I don’t even get one like or comment so no one cares apparently. What will it take for them to realize that something is very wrong?
This juxtaposition haunts me, too. How people keep trudging on in such a degree of denial. That is more mind boggling than the challenges we face, for me anyway.
Then you might as well curl up and die, because they WILL be coming for you.
Or you could fight back, starting in your own community, and refuse to comply with fraudulent election results, illegal mandates from appointees of illegitimately elected officials, and digital prisons. It doesn’t take many to throw sand in the gears, and God doesn’t let evil empires last long – so much the more if we plead for His help.
There’s always been “the kickback” with any kind of foreign aid Makes you want to stop paying taxes.
I smell a rat, kudos to Musk for releasing files but he’s backing “anybody but Trump” establishment DeSantis . It’s been reported that two of DS’s mega doners backed obummer on 08 . . .
She’s obviously being rewarded for her participation in this carefully managed “push for transparency”.
Thanks to Sundance, we can see the stitches on their fastballs.
Not fooled.
Is it just me, or does she look alot like that other reporter that Wolfe guy on intelligence committee staff “supposedly ” had an affair and leaked info too ….sooooo confusing …
Forever suspicious, wise cat.
Thank goodness you are able to show the underlying rot.
Imagine that…
While working for the NYT, she was the girlfriend of the Chief of Staff for Sen Warner. The CoS (can’t remember his name, but another Jew) leaked secret content to Weiss for printing in the NYT.
Sundance wrote a ton of articles about this and HER.
No, that was Ali Watkins.
And James Wolfe was the slimy CoS.
“Ignore that all U.S. social media apps track users on U.S. servers with U.S. government access…”
Suspicious Cat isn’t suspicious about where Ukraine fits into this?
Levying Information Warfare Against the United States from Ukraine
Some people have a second home, the “Fourth Branch of Government” made Ukraine their second country in 2014 when Victoria Nuland and Joe Biden engineered regime change on Russia’s border using Nazi’s as muscle—e.g., Right Sector, Svoboda, etc.—and installing them as government officials of their post-coup vassal state.
In exchange for legitimizing their genocide of Eastern Ukrainians by calling it “The Revolution of Dignity,” Team Biden’s Nazi vassal state has been laundering misappropriations (read: “robbing the United States blind”) while providing a massive information warfare apparatus and occasional muscle for use against their political opponents in the U.S.
Barbara Boyd: (I added links in this paragraph) “[The] anti-Russian information warfare apparatus, which was birthed out of the Ukraine coup, … includes Britain’s 77th Military Brigade (embedded in social media companies throughout the world), the Integrity Initiative, NATO’s Strategic Communications Center in Latvia, and the State Department’s Global Engagement Center.
All of these military-grade psychological and information warfare groups operated and continue to operate on behalf of the coup in Ukraine and have been critical in the “perception management” surrounding various false-flag atrocities attributed to Russia…. Christopher Steele and Fusion GPS, the primary propagandists in the 2016-2017 operations against Trump, also operated in Ukraine, with Steele providing Victoria Nuland and John Kerry frequent operational updates through many memoranda concerning developments in that country. In fact, the British Integrity Initiative’s documents, seized and published by the hacking group “Anonymous [Europe],” point to a propaganda initiative and censorship effort aimed squarely at Donald Trump’s presidential campaign, conducted, in part, right out of the State Department.
In describing this modern form of information warfare, Joel Harding, who went to work for Ukraine’s newly established “Information Ministry” during the coup, and formerly worked for Hillary Clinton at the State Department, describes a regime in which all information, other than manipulated propaganda, is denied to the target population. A compliant media apparatus [now known as “The Trusted News Initiative”] publishes daily talking points about key events, over and over again. The talking points are aimed at the “psyche” of targeted populations, with high emotive content, designed to produce desired action. Dissenting views are to be censored or debunked as “conspiracy theories.”
Harding and the Atlantic Council put this into operation in the United States shortly after the [2016] election, when the Washington Post published the signal piece, “Propaganda or Not.” It listed every website in the United States that had been deemed to be insufficiently anti-Russian—most of which provided the only independent journalism in the United States—as requiring immediate censorship. …”
Joel Harding also worked with Nina Jankowiciz to fabricate and sell the American public:
• The Trump/Russian collusion narrative
• The DNC hack narrative
• The Trump Tower narrative
• The Trump/Alfa (Putin’s) Bank narrative
• The George Floyd narrative
Jankowicz also worked with Ukrainian Information Ministry’s Christina Dobrovolska who served as the go-between Obama’s State Department, Ukraine, and Ukrainian Diaspora leaders Alexandra Chalupa of DNC hack fame, Andrea Chalupa of the OUNb Euromaidanpress.com, and Irena Chalupa of InformNapalm (a Right Sector information operation group.)
Jankowicz and Dobrovolska “handled all the so-called Intel and information coming out of Ukraine [SBU] to destroy the Trump [presidency]” while conning Congress out of billions of dollars to fund Team Biden’s Nazi vassal state.
As George Eliason explained Four (4) years before the War in Ukraine:
“[Ukrainian Intel uses] this money to attack media that doesn’t support Ukraine’s right to violence against its people. … Their goal is to force a conflict between the US and Russia. From 2014 onward, they have repeatedly stated this was their only goal and America owed them that much.”
More smoke and mirrors. How stupid does Elon Musk, Bill Barr-zini and Bari Weiss think MAGA Republicans are???
The American people are so stupid. We are doomed.
I don’t know if we’re doomed but I have come to the conclusion there are many more stupids out there than I used to believe. I just think I was in denial.
Not sure about the lesbian aspect but being a leftist certainly is a sign of mental illness.
Clearly part of the mitigation of independent media/journalists. They’re beginning to build a shoal to protect themselves against the incoming storm of truth.
Never forget.
Thank you!! Love your truth bombs!! 👊👊. MAGA
FWIW, Bari Weiss was recently interviewed by Dr. Jordan Peterson and came off very well. Young, sharp, open, authentic?
But it seems like Musk continues to pick fallen Liberals for his releases.

Loose Canon Dr. Shiva asks – has Elon Musk shut down the portal?
When asked about the portal by another individual, Dr. Shiva claims Musk is acting dump when he says “I’ll dig into it”.
Would our intell community allow the sale of Twitter if it then shut down the portal / collaboration?
According to the long interview with Dr. Peterson, she left the NY Times when they came up with this type of publication by consensus (my term). It sounds like everyone got to read everything, and if something offended another writer, it could be blackmailed. So a group narrative was enforced.
She allegedly left because of this liberal groupthink.
A young person expanding so quickly and hiring ten (10) employees is very unusual, especially an essentially greenhorn writer.
Check out the Axios piece linked by Sundance…
Jordan Peterson is the ultimate plant, sorry. You may not have seen his latest. It’s really, really bad.
Thank you Sundance.
I never trusted the whole Twitter deal from the moment Elon Musk first mentioned it.
First time I ever saw his image I got a bad vibe.
> her wife
I’m old enough to remember when this would be considered a typo.
Holy Mother of God!
We shouldn’t trust anyone with Musk’s extensive connection to and reliance on government subsidies and contracts. He is a classic rent seeker in the economic sense of that term.
