How is it that after all this time this is the same file photo on every Cannon story?

It could have some daily fixtures like “I’m not a doctor but…” and “Meet today’s main characters.” Would pay.

And surely there’s a diner in Georgia or South Carolina where African-Americans might have some views. (Or are diner stories only for Rust Belt types?)

To be clear, saw plenty of fine coverage. Just gobsmacked this will be a three-day story.

Also it seems to have taken (checks notes) 4 days for the “president posts racist video” story to drop from mainstream headlines. Follow up ideas: president doesn’t says he posts things without know what’s in them? Staffer supposedly involved: real and if so identity? Imaginary?

President Trump predictably criticized the Super Bowl halftime show as “one of the worst, EVER!” and said the set by Bad Bunny “doesn’t represent our standards.” In a lengthy post on Truth Social, Trump complained that “nobody understands a word this guy is saying,” because the performance was largely in Spanish. He went on to praise the stock market, criticize the news media and complain once more about the N.F.L.’s kickoff rule.

Imagine time traveling to 2000 and trying to explain to some people enjoying Friends on TV this news from the future

It would be interesting to watch how Mamdani's content has been slowly integrated into official Dem party social media accounts.

ICE’s excuse for wearing masks has never actually manifested There have been incidents of harassment and threats. But there are no apparent incidents in which identified ICE officers have been assaulted off-duty.

Finally got around to a bit of research I'd been meaning to explore, and: There is no documented instance of an ICE officer being identified and assaulted while off duty because he wasn't masked. www.pbump.net/o/ices-excus...

Maybe the Bartiromo can become the standard measurement unit for this, à la “he lasted two and a half Scaramuccis”
