In this segment, Senator Schmitt insists he knows nothing about a major scandal, goes on an extended rant filled with lies and smears, insults Stephanopolous and his show directly, and is generally a preening asshole.
Yet I’m sure they’ll welcome him back for more.

STEPHANOPOULOS: Do you support the pardon of the former Honduran president?
SCHMITT: I'm not familiar w/ the facts or circumstances

Smugglers, money launderers and sanctioned people once relied on diamonds, gold and artwork. Now, criminals have a far more practical alternative: stablecoins, a cryptocurrency tied to the U.S. dollar that exists largely beyond traditional financial oversight.

Bari Weiss is the shitstain dogs leave on the rug after they drag their asses across it.
"...a male correspondent was initially included on the layoff list but was removed after he appealed directly to the new editor-in-chief, Bari Weiss, leading to another female correspondent being added to the list at the last minute."
CBS News fired 8 on-air personalities in latest layoffs. All of them are women
EXCLUSIVE: Multiple sources told The Independent that senior foreign correspondent Debora Patta was added to the layoff list following a last-minute change by editor-in-chief Bari Weiss.

A small price for American to pay for the tax cuts for the rich and ultra wealthy.
He may be demolishing one of the most iconic structures in American history…
But on the bright side, the billionaires he gave massive tax cuts to will have a nice ballroom to dance in.
You’re not invited, though. 🫤
And your healthcare premiums are going to skyrocket. 🤷♂️
