Fascist fucks.

I hate cancel culture, which I define as the spreading of damaging falsehoods about people. That’s why i’m on X where that never happens and certainly is not the entire purpose of the social network under Elon Musk bsky.app/profile/donm...

NYT: In plunging into a mideast conflict, Trump gambles his presidency.

What does “gambles his presidency” mean? What does he have to lose?

GOP “Antitrust Concerns” Magically Disappear Now That Larry Ellison Is Buying Warner Brothers 

You might have noticed that when Netflix was attempting to acquire Warner Brothers, Republicans were suddenly and uncharacteristically interested in media consolidation and antitrust reform. Republican…

Exclusive: A new CBS News emerges amid Iran crisis The joint Israeli and American attacks on Iran were the first major test of the new CBS News right-leaning and pro-Israel editorial leadership.

Semafor: "Weiss’ approach has paid some dividends." For Netanyahu and Trump.

I wish some major media outlets would do broad reports on the impact of death threats on our politics, and on who's doing them (MAGA men mostly from what I can tell), and why law enforcement appears to be doing so little about them. They are such a big (submerged) part of our politics now.

It cannot be stressed enough how these Republicans don’t see government jobs as jobs at all. They see them as titles, no-show gigs where they can do whatever they want. That’s why they hated the people in those jobs before, they thought it was a scam because they don’t believe in doing the work.

Trump just held a press conference about war with Iran, and spent much of it talking about drapes and his ballroom. I guess those are the drapes of wrath???

It’s amazing how these people have no morals or beliefs of any kind, and just will say anything that works, at any moment, to grasp some power.

Maybe it's just me, but the chief of a major news operation probably shouldn't be shitposting at major political figures. Right...?

This War Will Destabilize The Entire Mideast Region And Set Off A Global Shockwave Of Anti-Americanism vs. No It Won’t George W. Bush may think that a war against Iraq is the solution to our problems, but the reality is, it will only serve to create far more.

It's note for note.

He's a monster assembling his own axis of evil who want to kill babies in their quest for wars of real estate. He needs to be impeached the second you can do it.

Girls are innocent victims here, start to finish: launched to distract from Epstein's abuse to killing students in their school in Iran.

A good rundown of where we are now and what, if any, recourse there is.

Yes, people are leaving in droves, including top talent. Sure, ratings are in the toilet, as is the reputation of CBS's news division. Granted, the flagship nightly broadcast is awful. But the thing to remember about Bari Weiss is...actually, I guess that covers it.

Clown show.

Polls show increasing concerns about Trump’s mental acuity | CNN Politics President Donald Trump won the 2024 presidential race after his initial opponent, then-President Joe Biden, withdrew over worries about his age and mental sharpness.

Gee, you wouldn’t know that from the (non) media coverage of his mental decline. But we all remember what they did with Biden.

America's foremost sleep paralysis demon Libs of TikTok tried to go after Kat for being Extremely Cool™ at the debate last night and nobody seems to have cared outside of Twitter. A dying snitch website with no juice.

I remain happy that the Zohran Mind Virus is able to impact the most odious man alive. I hope he goes back next time with the Trump Immigration Security Plan that instantly abolishes ICE but renames the Herald Square Sbarro to the Trump National Pizza Shop.

Despite the troubles and horrors, we're also living in the most meet-cute buddy movie ever.

I shared this earlier. Here's the update:

Any Democrat in a position of power should oppose this loudly and immediately. Make antitrust laws a campaign issue. Fight it every way imaginable. Do not hand over mass media to a creepy dad-son dyad who want to cozy up to an increasingly loathed president bent on maintaining power illegitimately.

It's been more than 20 years since Tony wrote Munich. Watching the film get written, shot, and released was an extraordinary experience, and I don't think anyone has talked to Tony about it with more thoroughness and insight than Corey has here.

Administration Says DHS Can Demand Social Media Info From Legal Immigrants And US Citizens

Well, we always knew it would come to this. In a blow to the First Amendment and privacy, the Trump administration last week approved a U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) plan to collect…

Trump’s cruel attack on transgender teens last night was yet another assault on a minority that faces violence and discrimination. It’s become normalized by a media that didn’t even notice it in today’ coverage, but this is the president attacking children and families.

Media are going out of their way to complicate Trump’s speech just to come up with something fresh to say. He “reframed”, “celebrated” “put on a show.”

Please people, it was the same old shit. Nothing new. He’s doesn’t have anything. And GOP is in trouble.

Still seems crazy that Richard Hanania wrote for years under a white power banner and is just like, part of the media landscape.
