1. This AM we learned Bari Weiss sent an email to CBS News staff asking them to submit a memo explaining how they spend their time and what’s working/not working.

Now, the Writers Guild, the union which reps some CBS News staff, says it has sent a demand to CBS to get more info about Bari’s request

Dear Guild Members:
We are aware that Bari Weiss sent an email asking CBS employees to provide information about their jobs and feedback about CBS News. Many of you have expressed concern to us about the purpose of the email, and we share those concerns. That is why we sent the company an immediate demand to provide information about the email by Monday. (Information request copied below.) We suggest that you refrain from responding until we are able to share the information that we receive so that you can make an informed decision by the Tuesday deadline.
Solidarity,
Michael Isaac, Director of
Broadcast/Cable/Streaming News
Brandon West, Field Representative
Sophie Martin, Field Representative
Dana Trentalange, Field Representative

Yet another trump disaster for America. I’ve been angry for 10 years that the republicans have been able to move their agenda forward without any real pushback from democrats. The dems need to be a more brutal party. They should have rid the country of republicans by any means necessary.They failed.

The base remains under U.S. jurisdiction, and this is seen as a training partnership rather than a separate base controlled by Qatar. This agreement reflects close U.S.-Qatar defense cooperation but does not involve a foreign military base on U.S. soil in Montana or elsewhere.[bbc +4]

Great point from @mjtoma.bsky.social: Millions of us absolutely do see what's happening to the USA.

"We are horrified, shocked, enraged, and ashamed. We are acting, in a thousand ways, to oppose it. This cannot, and will not, be how the United States ends."

TO ALL FEDERAL WORKERS: if you were illegally fired today and have information of wrongdoing or abuse of power by the Trump Administration, our whistleblower tip line is open.

We want to hear from you. All whistleblowers are federally protected.

Report Potential Wrongdoing Under the Trump Administration

Whistleblowers play a vital role in helping Congress conduct our constitutionally mandated oversight responsibilities. If you have knowledge of corporate or government corruption and abuses of power; insights into the crimes of Jeffrey Epstein and his associates; or information regarding potential wrongdoing or waste, fraud, and abuse of taxpayer dollars, your disclosure can make a difference.
