Can folks please please please stop retweeting clips of CNN, MSNBC, et al? We don't watch that crap any more. We have no interest in the clowns they feature. We've moved on. We KNOW they're all dipsticks, doing fascist shit. Why do you think we need to see dipsticks? #RetweetOperaSingers
How do the people who blame Garland for his supposed inaction explain the SC verdict in the 2024 case brought by the people of Colorado? Pretty clear tRUmp was ballot-ineligible, only the Roberts Court subverted the law & justice. As they would have done in any case threatening Putin's Puppet.

In a huge coincidence, this Acosta fellow—the US Attorney who raced to protect Jeffrey Epstein from his own office investigating Epstein's finances—was later appointed to Trump's Cabinet.

Gosh, what a strange thing for Trump to do. Can't explain it. Hmmm.

Amid national economic insecurity, Minnesota just ranked as a top three state in the nation for job seekers.

That includes nation-leading job benefits, worker protections, and a diverse economy.

If you need a job, we want you here.

The network news got unwatchable long ago (all those years of tRUmp-fluffing & Biden-bashing bled intelligent viewers away), so the CBS preposterousness is just the shit-gilding of the dead lily. If a network falls in the forest & absolutely everyone has switched off long ago . . . .
That "social media use is declining" is some of the most hopeful news I've heard lately.
Your brain's way of telling you to read in bed for an hour.
Let's just move on from network news already -- they moved on from us years ago.

"The media have never figured out how to deal with it"?? Oh Joe, get a clue. The media is now a total OLIGARCH-OWNED, RUSSIAN-DISINFO, tRUmp-FLUFFING propaganda network. It's you pundit who've never figured out -- since Vichy Times 2015 HRC emails -- how to deal with it. Boycott & Shun.
"Unwilling and unable"? But get the reason right, Judd -- it's not at all a matter of bias or both-sidesism. MSM is now 24/7 OLIGARCH-owned, state-sponsored propaganda. We need to shun it, boycott it, stop talking about it, and move on to creating the national alternative.
That their already propagandist coverage will get even moreso is not news. That otherwise intelligent people are still watching CNN (and reading the Vichy Times et al) is the problem. Take that dude (Rupar?), wasting his life being the Hagiographer of Fascism. Minkya! Shun the Failed Media!
How have you not abandoned the media, when they've so cravenly abandoned us?
Watch some of the superb Val Lewton RKO films if you haven't seen them: ISLE OF THE DEAD, CAT PEOPLE, THE BODY SNATCHER, THE SEVENTH VICTIM, LEOPARD MAN, THE GHOST SHIP. Movies from when America was still a brilliant reality, not soulless oligarch nonsense films from our current hellscape.
The politics are base;
The letters do not cheer;
And ’tis far in the deeps of history,
The voice that speaketh clear.

Almost every major news story this week is about how the entire economy is now gambling, scams, bribes and theft.
When ocean-clouds over inland hills
Sweep storming in late autumn brown,
And horror the sodden valley fills,
And the spire falls crashing in the town,
I muse upon my country’s ills —
The tempest bursting from the wastes of Time
On the world’s fairest hope linked with man’s foulest crime.
Can we please stop calling it a 'ballroom'? It's a throne room he's building.
Is this addressed to me? If so, I'm not talking about out-of-power Democrats, I'm talking about we the people, using the only indisputable power we have left, our $$$, to cancel all streaming services, boycott all MSM, boycott all oligarch-owned retail, buying small & local.
Also, stop retweeting Vichy Times.
Is there really anything more to say about it? I think the conversation needs to be: why haven't responsible voices coalesced by now to boycott these oligarch quislings & cowards to their knees. Look what happened to Disney+ in just UNDER A WEEK!
Dude, he works for the Vichy Times. You're better than that, Chris.
