One way for the media to win back the respect of viewers would be for them to show us that they have some self-respect of their own.
When you let the president denigrate and humiliate your colleagues without saying a word, you're not really giving off a "holding the powerful to account" vibe

The post alleges Blanche got the law wrong regarding patronizing sex parties with alleged child trafficking, failed to redact victimsβ names and pictures of children, and moved Ghislaine Maxwell to a minimum-security prison and got her a puppy. Below is a video thumbnail showing Rep. Ted Lieu speaking at a podium indoors, with another man standing beside him and U.S. House seals and flags in the background.

If Jeff Bezos could afford to spend $75 million on the Melania movie & $500 million for a yacht to sail off to his $55 million wedding to give his wife a $5 million ring, please don't tell me he needed to fire one-third of the Washington Post staff.

Abigail Spanberger left the 287(g) program, which empowered state law enforcement to detain immigrants. Will Democrats also bar local police and sheriffs from the program?
NEW: Abigail Spanberger this afternoon ordered that all state agencies leave ICE's 287(g) program.
This means that the state police (and some other agencies) will no longer be empowered to detain and arrest people for ICE.
