Hey maybe while we are asking for "do-overs" we can have SCOTUS reconsider the immunity decision. 🀑🀑🀑

If President Trump tries to take control of the midterm elections by executive order, he'll be defying the Constitution in an attempt to trample the authority of Congress and the states and the rights of voters. The time to draw a line is now, says @walterolson.bsky.social.

RIP Neil Sedaka, who was always extraordinarily kind when he’d visit the Today Show set. πŸ’”

Secretary Hegseth announced this afternoon that DOD will cease ALL graduate study by military personnel at universities including MIT, all the Ivies, Stanford, etc because such schools teach "the enemy's wicked ideology" to officers.

I assume you already don't have Paramount?

I'm struggling to accept that I may not be able to trust CNN if it goes through...

This was good. I came in towards the end of Trump's speech, stuck around through Pete. Wish you'd talked more seriously about Abigail Spanburger though. BS was erupting with how great they thought she had done. (sort of the audience of course)

The Line Between Affinity and Conspiracy Epstein relied on Jewish in-group bonds to cultivate the network that facilitated his crimes.

As someone who has (unfortunately) been elbow-deep in Epstein's emails, I can tell you: "Jewish in-group bonds" was not the "currency" Epstein used to facilitate his crimes. It was power, $$, and a deep-seated hatred of women. Any insinuation otherwise is weird. jewishcurrents.org/the-line-bet...

I hope you are writing a book about Epstein's ability to morph into different personas and personalities to get what he wanted. This is the first time I've heard this, and it's interesting.. explains a lot.

@oliverdarcy.bsky.social is right: this is a dream come true for trump who has wanted to destroy CNN from the start. But Trump won’t always be president & the GOP won’t always be in charge so things are going to get very interesting with this oligarch monopoly as early as Jan β€˜27…

Netflix Backs Out of Bid for Warner Bros., Paving Way for an Ellison Takeover

The richest man owns X.

The second and third richest men control Google.

The fourth richest man owns Facebook, Instagram, and WhatsApp.

The fifth richest man owns The Washington Post.

And now the sixth richest could soon take over both Paramount and Warner Bros.

See the problem here?

White House circulating blatantly illegal draft emergency order to take control of elections Voting rights experts and at least one state election chief said Trump doesn’t have the authority to claim such powers β€” and any attempt would be blatantly illegal.

A draft emergency executive order to declare a national emergency to allow President Donald Trump to take unprecedented control over voting is being circulating by anti-voting activists who said they are in coordination with the White House. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

Gotta wonder how many pro maga accounts aren't paid in one way or another by Trump & Co. Is MAGA even real anymore or is it just a paid for propaganda machine.
