While Trump blusters about "law & order," his regime has dropped or halted nearly 165 investigations into corporate wrongdoing. And Trump himself has pardoned dozens of his supporters, including Jan 6 rioters and others convicted of crimes like money laundering and bribery.

Ah yes, air traffic controllers must show up for work without pay, but Congress can take the day off. Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy says he’ll be making “necessary cuts” to the department, because nothing fixes staffing shortages quite like firing more people.

Well done!

A tweet by Gramps says “RELEASE THE FILES!” with a photo showing a projection on a wall of several people edited into a parody movie poster titled “Guardians of Pedophiles,” referencing “Guardians of the Galaxy.” A car is passing by the projection on the street.

After watching Reingold speak in that piece, I'll go with "just didn't understand it."

Mike Masnick @mmasnick.bsky.social · 1d

Was waiting to see how Olivia Reingold (who Oliver's piece destroyed almost as much as Bari Weiss) would respond, and you can see the tweet below which also shows she either did not watch his piece, or just didn't understand it, since he actually addresses this point directly.

Olivia Reingold quote tweeting Variety.

The Variety tweet is about John Oliver's piece on Bari Weiss leading CBS News, saying:

John Oliver slams Bari Weiss' takeover of CBS News:

"I wouldn’t want anyone who led a pure opinion outlet, not even one that I happened to agree with, to suddenly be running CBS News. But it is especially alarming to have someone doing it who has spent years putting out work that, in my opinion, is at best irresponsible and at worst deeply misleading."

Reingold then quotes it saying:

Why does this sound like John Oliver commenting on……John Oliver

30 years later, many of Jeffrey Epstein’s victims like Annie are still waiting for justice. That’s why Oversight Dems continue to fight for the full release of the Epstein files.

They finally built a lense with which to see us more clearly. Neurodivergent people have always been here. Now we're finally being seen and more clearly understood. It turns out, we're necessary, and good for the progression of humanity. 🤗

Reagan f*cked us every which way he could. And by "us", I mean the working class and the under-resourced. Taxing Social Security retirement income is a 2nd tax on income you've already been taxed on once. 😡
