@BrendanCarrFCC - FCC You!
Stephen Colbert says he was told by CBS lawyers "in no uncertain terms" that he could not have Texas State Rep. James Talarico on his program.

"Because my network clearly doesn't want us to talk about this, let's talk about this."

Narrator: Bull$hit ALERT!

You'll need every cent PLUS to replace the healthcare subsidy they CUT!
Thanks to the Working Families Tax Cuts, Republicans turned the IRS into a REFUND MACHINE for the American worker.

Between the doubled Child Tax Credit and the end of taxes on tips and overtime, your return isn't just a "refund,” it’s the massive pay raise you’ve earned.

...why isn't ICE deporting her to El Salvador ‘mega prison’. After all if she isn't one of the worst of the worst, I don't know who is.
Ghislaine Maxwell lied on her US citizenship application. She checked the no box when asked if she had ever procured anyone for prostitution.

She had been trafficking since 1994. This could get another 25 years added to her sentence.

Just a beautiful story I wanted to share: “philosophy of enough” “I don’t need to conquer the world, that’s not what I want out of life. I just want to have experiences and connections and a little moment where we laugh and say we’ve been moved to emotion.” www.sfgate.com/centralcalif...

Can the House committee hold Pam Bondi in contempt? Are they not because republicans Chair the committee?
BALINT: Was the president aware of Secretary Lutnick's ties to Epstein when he chose him to lead the Department of Commerce?

BONDI: Chris Malen was a Border Patrol agent----

BALINT: So I'm going to conclude that he did know!

...ah, so the jobs report under trump is bad? Who would have guessed?
Peter Navarro: "The jobs report comes out tomorrow. We have to revise our expectations down significantly for what a monthly job number should look like ... Wall Street has to adjust for the fact that we're deporting millions of illegals out of the job market."

🤣🤣🤣 “Adding insult to injury, the very voices who were supposed to champion Turning Point USA didn’t seem to have tuned in. While railing against Bad Bunny’s halftime show on Truth Social, Trump didn’t mention watching the Turning Point show at all.”

The counter-programming to the half time show was predictably xenophobic, but (perhaps) surprisingly low-quality and poorly attended

Well written article - "This is a tale of entire corrupt system, of how its rulers act with impunity and believe they are beyond law or accountability, how they reward themselves financially, and how they use their power to abuse women sexually."

Very interesting when you think about it.
People arguing about Bad Bunny at the Super Bowl are behind the curve. Culture already moved.

The NFL didn’t experiment; it aligned with gravity. That’s how power actually changes.

Quietly, then all at once. 💥

Man child trump hates the Obama's. Why? The Obama's have something trump will never have. Intelligence, respect and a Nobel Peace Prize.
This is overt racism. Full stop. There’s no ‘misinterpretation’ and no excuse. This is who he is, who he’s always been, and why he should never be anywhere near power again. And there’s a reason the tapes from The Apprentice have never been released.

American has turned its BACK on our allies. America has turned its BACK on needy Americans. America has turned its BACK on immigrants trying to follow our laws and make their lives better.

THAT is what republicans mean when they talk about Americas BACK.
