At some point, people need to stop agreeing to appear on this show with him.
Jennings is a moral monster who clearly has no center. I’m glad Kasky didn’t put up with it, but there’s really no point in going on this show or any show where you know he’ll be.
He’s just a liar and, frankly, a bully and a bigot.

Kasky to Jennings: I understand that your job is predicated on just getting increasingly more demented every single week

So much of parenting is breaking a rule you had because they're sick and then never being able to put it back in the bottle. Just an accretion of illness-related slippages to your grand plans.

Part of the problem is the would be the perfect launching pad for Vance to enact a coup via 25th Amendment, but he's also gone all in on Greenland so what would that solve?

My kid after her first KPop Demon Hunters viewing, while sobbing: If Rumi is half demon and her job is to kill demons then doesn’t she need to kill herself to be good at her job?

The shadow cabinet idea is great in principle but no one then does the second step of “who picks the shadow cabinet?” or the step after that: “what the shadow cabinet isn’t good?”
Democrats could act like a real opposition party, refusing to validate Trump malfeasance with votes, and setting up a shadow cabinet that regularly communicates how Democrats would be different. But nah.
It’s not only a majority of Democratic voters that hate this approach. US allies see it too.

The incredibly lukewarm Democratic response on Greenland is being noticed in Europe, incidentally.
Chuck Schumer not finding a stronger word than “quixotic” for Trump’s plan to seize Greenland has been name checked to me more than once.

A great thing about social media is that I can not watch any football game today and tomorrow still confidently be like “man, CJ Stroud, am I right?” in any small talk situation

These same people often claim it’s some niche product and have no acknowledgment that ChatGPT is one of the most popular websites in the world.
it's crazy the number of people who will pontificate confidently on LLMs without knowing that the popular consumer chatbots search the internet and link to the results in their responses.

Under the Woke 2 Regime, the president will issue an executive order requiring Hamilton be played for four hours every day on all channels (Hamilton is coming back for Woke 2).
Trump is going to sign an executive order to preserve a 4-hour window for the Army-Navy game lol

I reached out to the most well-known Minnesota-based companies, multiple times, for comment on what's happening in the Twin Cities right now. None of them responded. Here's my attempt at unpacking why.
We asked Minnesota's biggest companies about ICE. None of them responded
In a sign of how far we've come from the summer of 2020, well-known brands have stayed silent as escalating chaos unfolds in their backyard.

Now that there's a GLP pill, are the people who were giving themselves shots going to say the people on the pill are doing it the easy way?

We thought we’d check in with the biggest Minnesota companies to see how they feel about what ICE is doing there. Not a lot of strong leadership on offer from these corporate giants. www.fastcompany.com/91476021/min...

At some point you also need to start questioning the other guests willing to appear next to him while he does this stuff.
i’ll say it again, jennings is a contemptible liar and it is a disgrace that CNN puts him on television every night to spread bullshit
The thing is, some people can make mistakes, get things wrong, be careless, etc. But that’s not what Jennings did here. Jennings knowingly, purposefully and intentionally lied to utterly distort what was said, which CNN pays him to do every day. CNN is the enabler of this.

Why is Ben Affleck the only one that seems to have understood the assignment here?
