ICE is and has been out of control for a long time. How many rights can they violate without being held accountable?

When I was a kid, my family got Pizza Hut and watched 60 Minutes basically every Sunday night. I've been watching it for 30+ years probably.

Hadn't heard of "The Free Press" before like last week, but I'm sure it's going to transform CBS into something better (derogatory)

We must pay billions to farmers

Because we cut off their customers with tariffs

And pay billions to Argentina

Whose farmers are selling to the customers we forfeited

Because that is America First

It's really neat that nearly 6 in 10 voters across 88 of Nebraska's 93 counties said they don't like this but the governor can just do it anyway.

It was part of the conspiracy and scheme to defraud that other employees of The Office, some known and some unknown to the grand jury, would note on sticky notes the amount of money taken out of the business safe in order to provide to HOBERT RUPE. These
sticky notes would have "COB" written on them and a dollar amount. "COB" stands for cost of business. This was how another owner known to the grand jury would keep track of the cash at The Office that was expensed by the business to influence HOBERT RUPE over time in the performance of his official duties.

It's clear from this press conference Trump never went with his kids (or probably his wives) to the doctor.

It would have cost The Mouse nothing to just ignore the mob and keep Kimmel on the air but they chose to burn through a bunch of credibility and goodwill first.

During a nearly five-month stretch in early 2025, the Board timesheets filled out by the Executive Director showed him working eight hours per day, seven days a week, for 140 consecutive days -- a remarkable display of fortitude and devotion to duty by a public servant. Unfortunately, information gathered by Foley's auditors indicates it to be untrue.

Sen. Deb Fischer says celebration of Kirk’s death is not free speech, criticizes Democrat obstruction Fischer told Nebraska Public Media News Thursday that she’s a strong supporter of free speech, but people celebrating a murder need to be held responsible.

"I'm a strong supporter of free speech, but reactions like we've seen in some cases, where they are celebrating an assassination, celebrating a murder, that is not free speech."

It is, in fact, free speech, senator.

The word is, and it's a strong word at that, Jimmy Kimmel is NEXT to go in the untalented Late Night Sweepstakes and, shortly thereafter, Fallon will be gone. These are people with absolutely NO TALENT, who were paid Millions of Dollars for, in all cases, destroying what used to be GREAT Television. It's really good to see them go, and I hope I played a major part in it!

Don't buy the canard that this is about Charlie Kirk. Abusing state power to lean on corporate leaders and get Jimmy Kimmel off the air because he told jokes about the president and made him feel bad was always the plan.
