MAGA thought they elected Trump to save America, but instead he’s saving Argentina. $40 billion now going to Trump’s buddy Javier Milei, while Americans can’t afford groceries, gas, or basic healthcare.

Let’s stop pretending. The issue before the Supreme Court right now is easy to understand: There are still many people on the far right who don’t see Black Americans as equals...they see them through the same filthy slur they whisper when the cameras are off. That's right...that word.

Disney is no longer associated with magic and innocence in the minds of millions now.

There are mistakes - and there is catastrophic cowardice that changes your brand identity.

Boycott Disney.

There is no world in which it is normal for the president to publicly call upon his attorney general to hurry up and prosecute his political foes. It’s like the Watergate tapes but posted on social media. Let’s get a grip on what’s happening here.

This guy is a GOP donor who last year gave money to Trump. So a fellow who supports an anti-press authoritarian who calls the media the "enemy of the people" and who sued CBS News is now going to be the ombudsman for CBS News. Good move, Paramount. More accommodation.

INBOX: Paramount announces that it has appointed Kenneth R. Weinstein as the new Ombudsman of CBS News.

Weinstein was previously the president and CEO of the Hudson Institute, a conservative think tank. He currently serves as its "Japan Chair."

LOS ANGELES, CA – September 8, 2025 – Paramount, a Skydance Corporation announced today the appointment of Kenneth R. Weinstein as its new Ombudsman for CBS News. In this role, Weinstein will serve as an independent, internal advocate for journalistic integrity and transparency, reviewing concerns raised by employees and viewers, addressing questions about news coverage, and upholding the organization’s longstanding commitment to accuracy and accountability.

Weinstein previously served as president and CEO of Hudson Institute, where he currently holds the Japan Chair. A seasoned scholar and policy advisor, he served under four U.S. administrations as a member of multiple federal advisory boards, including chairing the Broadcasting Board of Governors (now the United States Agency for Global Media). He has written widely for publications in the U.S., Europe, and Asia, holds a PhD in Government from Harvard University, and has taught political theory at Georgetown and Claremont McKenna Colleges.

Said Jeff Shell, President of Paramount: “We look forward to welcoming Ken as our new Ombudsman. At a time when trust in media is more important than ever, this new role reinforces our commitment to truth, trust, and accountability. I’ve known him for many years and have great respect for his integrity, sound judgment, and thoughtful approach to complex issues. Ken brings not only a wealth of advisory experience in media and beyond but also a calm, measured perspective that makes him exceptionally well-suited to serve as our Ombudsman.”

Said Kenneth Weinstein: “I am honored to serve as Ombudsman for CBS News, one of the most respected journalistic institutions in the world. I look forward to supporting the talented team behind its reporting and to stewarding public trust in this critical institution.”

Under the newly established Ombudsman process, complaints from consumers, employees, and others will be directed to Weinstein, who will review each and, if he dete

I think before the mid terms the middle class in this country has to wake up. Reaganomics has stripped us of retirement wealth, generational wealth, and a livable society. Maybe the “No Oligarchs” tour has something profound to say!
