FCC Chairman Carr is “thinking”of removing the Equal Time rule exception for TV talk shows (but not right-wing talk radio), so CBS wouldn’t let Stephen Colbert air this interview with Texas senate candidate James Talarico. Let’s Streisand Effect the hell out of it on YT.

The Craven Broadcasting System thought it better to cower from Brendan Carr rather than air this thoughtful Colbert interview with @jamestalarico.bsky.social. It was fifteen minutes well spent this morning to watch it.

Keep this in mind when reading the nice articles about the diplomatic tone of Marco Rubio’s remarks in Munich. The deaths of millions and millions of people are on him.
I still think the best way to think of the ending of US AID is as the single worst genocide committed by any one US presidential administration.

even given all the horrific things the US has done, it's not really that close. 750k dead already; expected 14 million.
this is exactly why I am absolutely not willing to overlook anyone who was once “advocating for ending USAID” as merely committing a little oopsie-daisy-booboo, by the way

This is bullshit from the head of the Epstein administration. Release *all* the Epstein files with no illegal redactions.
Trump: I have nothing to hide. I have been exonerated. I have nothing to do with Jeffrey Epstein. I have been totally exonerated on Epstein.

There is no constitutional right of law enforcement to detain me, throw me to the ground, and then put five bullets in my back while masked and unidentified.

There is a right to vote.

Ossoff: "Among today's false prophets are the election deniers who indulge this president's obsession with overturning the 2020 election. Hear me when I say this -- they tell a lie so absurd, and therefore so debasing, that the act of telling it proves the teller's total and humiliating submission."

US had almost *no* job growth in 2025.

Hiring numbers were revised down by over a million jobs.

Largest annual revision in over 20 years.

www.nbcnews.com/business/eco...
U.S. added 130,000 jobs in January, but labor market growth stalled in 2025
The Bureau of Labor Statistics found that U.S. employers added 181,000 jobs last year, far fewer than the 1.46 million jobs that were added in 2024.
