Studies have shown that consuming Fox News make people angrier and reduces their knowledge to societal issues. We have a senile Florida man destroying the planet, causing global chaos and death, and is tearing apart the country. The Murdochs must be so proud of their Frankenstein.
"Trump’s Addiction to Watching Fox Is Killing American Democracy"
Our country is falling apart because one old man, Trump advisers and former administration officials say, won’t stop ‘yelling’ at his TV, writes Zeteo's @swin24.bsky.social:
When you have the national guard, the FBI, state troopers, Memphis police, and helicopters flying all over the city of Memphis spending over $1 million a day, and you still can’t stop the crime.
In 50 years when Americans wonder how China overcame the United States in every possible way, they will be reminded of the Art of the Worst Deal ever made.
Emanuel: China's basically found leverage; they're applying pressure, and they're doing it to soybean farmers. Our farmers have lost that market, are out a huge amount of money, and could see a lot of bankruptcies in the rural parts of the Midwest.
Baldwin: Our farmers are facing incredible headwinds. A lot of the fertilizer inputs come from Canada. Those have shot up because of tariffs. About a quarter of all farmers use the ACA for their health care coverage. This president is just contributing to the headwinds that our farmers are facing.
More than ever Memphis needs journalists covering the truth. The amount of daily disinformation is overwhelming. What saddens me more is the Daily Memphian chose to run an article by a writer that usually talks about Bible quotes but instead talked about how glad she is that the feds are in Memphis.
“With your patient and rigorous work, you can act as a barrier against those who, through the ancient art of lying, seek to create divisions in order to rule by dividing,” he said. “You can be a bulwark of civility against the quicksand of approximation and post-truth...”
There are overqualified college kids just trying to find any type of job or internship right now but the MAGA King’s son gets to control part of the public square.
Let’s not forget their main mission in life The guy who read a few books on the Middle East is not there to broker a lasting peace deal. He’s there to get the Trump cut. www.theguardian.com/us-news/2024...
One Million Dollars could be spent today on feeding our military and local community who are depending on food banks. But instead we got national guard troops walking down a sidewalk near Bass Pro where barely any crime takes place.
It’s estimated that the National Guard in Memphis will cost a million dollars a day. With the helicopters flying around and other agencies it’s probably much more. Imagine if we put $1 million a day into our community. Helping kids, schools, teachers, mental health needs and creating opportunities.
Book censorship in the public arena initiates the ideologies that certain topics, races, genders, religions, and people are not permissible to be discussed in the public square. They become foreign and taboo. Extremist orgs like Moms for Liberty push book bans to push white supremacy.
The Memphis public library had to change Banned Book Week to “Freedom to Read Week.” The city asked all displays to be taken down. This is their new idea of freedom. Shame on the Mayor and the City for bowing down to authoritarians.
Deeply disappointed in the lack of planning from the Tennessee Democrats. They have had years to come up with a qualified and well known name that could be running a competitive race for governor. As of now we can look forward to a hotter dystopian hell with Marsha at the helm.
