Lawrence: Trump reveals he’s considering pardoning convicted sex trafficker Ghislaine Maxwell
YouTube video by MSNBC Lawrence: Trump reveals he’s considering pardoning convicted sex trafficker Ghislaine Maxwell

Remarkable take down by @lawrenceodonnell.msnbc.com of a @cnn.com anchor who proudly reported on his unverified 'text interview' with Trump. He's not named here but it was Jake Tapper who gave Trump questions in advance & has no idea who actually typed the responses.

The POLITICO headline here gives away which team they play for.

I’m sorry but it is pure cope to believe that Senate Ds are scoring points by taking Bondi’s abuse.

"There are few publications doing election previews better than Bolts", say @samyoungman.bsky.social and @adamparkhomenko.bsky.social: www.thealtmedia.com/p/ghislaines...

This really makes it sound like a Border Patrol agent tried to kill an anti-ICE activist in Chicago and DHS lied to cover for him

Jake Tapper, who eviscerated Biden for the sin of growing older, has done everything but help install a chair lift in the White House to cover up Trump's deepening dementia and utter feebleness.

She reminds him we’re talking about child sex trafficking and he still says he’ll consider pardoning Maxwell.

My Favorite Actress Is Not Human Tilly Norwood doesn’t need a hairstylist, has no regrettable tweets, and if you wish to see a virgin on-screen, this is one of your better chances. That’s because she’s AI, writes Tyler Cowen.

Still thinking about Tyler Cowen watching young actresses in movies and thinking to himself, "yes, but how do I know if she's *really* a virgin? HOW CAN I KNOW?"

And then telling everyone about it!

We wanted to understand Democratic Socialists of America. So we talked to two old guys who voted for Trump. (Yes, this is literally the article.)

All Hail the Humping Antifa Frog It’s Monday. There are 395 days until the midterm elections. A Trump judge is big mad at Trump, RIP CBS and a judge’s house burns.

perhaps the biggest story TFPever ran was a catastrophically shoddy argument that George Floyd ackshully died of an overdose. When confronted with irrefutable evidence that the piece was simply wrong, Weiss didn’t take it down, she asked her critic, @radleybalko.bsky.social, to come on a podcast.

Last week, one of Trump's senior DOJ appointees strongly attacked a South Carolina's judge's voting rights decision. Today her house was burned to the ground by suspected arsonists.

It's increasingly clear that the president lives in a constructed bubble of unreality designed by aides who are manipulating him in order to take control of US policy. Seems like an important story - wish media would cover it.

Chicago journalists are doing a helluva job staying on top of the ICE incursion here.

I appeared on Fox News several times to talk about Obama and Jeremiah Wright.

So why isn’t Fox all over this story?

If you’re white, your accomplishments are your own and you can resent and criticize the country all you like, but if you’re black and successful you should be grateful to white people for allowing you in their presence. bsky.app/profile/jess...

If you don’t know that the guy who attacked the Capitol is a liar then you’re too fucking dumb to be a serious journalist.

So much to mourn here. ICE shot and killed a single father just after he has dropped his two kids off at daycare. Their justification for stopping him was traffic violations form 12 years ago. Their justification for shooting him was that he was driving away.

A completely needless tragedy.

β€œGod will bless us.”

β€œThey’re so weak.”

β€œWe’ll fix it.”

This is about a halftime performer.
