If refusing to comment is enough to kill a story, then the government now has veto power over journalism.
That’s what CBS normalized last night — and it should scare everyone.

CBS Pulled a “60 Minutes” Story Because the White House Refused to Comment — That’s a Veto on Journalism
Pulling a finished investigation because the administration refused to comment isn’t journalism. It’s submission.

My story is about three inspirational kings that made Memphis fun and inspirational. We fell in love with the city's mood.
A Tale of Kings in Tennessee
Have you visited Memphis? I never had until last year, and its mood moved me to the core.On a cool, bright early morning in April of last year, we drove to 3764 Elvis Presley Boulevard for a tour of Graceland. I expected to admire the retro decor preferred by Elvis, listen to the music, and pay my respects to the King of Rock and Roll.

Just a reminder before you start loading up on those Amazon Prime sales: the owner of the company literally rented a city for his wedding. He doesn't need your $$. Spend a little more, buy local, and you'll be helping an independent retailer stay in business. Boarded up shops don't help any of us.

Preach!
I will be damned if I allow a bunch of Confederate-waving January 6th apologists give the American people a lecture on flag waving.
There is ZERO reason to enter an argument about patriotism with people who still worship traitors to America 150+ years later.
They. Are. Breaking. The. Law.

Trump: Gutting National Parks—And Hiding the Evidence
National parks hit 331M visits, but Trump officials don’t want you to know. A leaked memo bans the Park Service from promoting the numbers—while firing rangers, closing visitor centers, and cutting safety.
This won’t go well—we love our parks.

Just over a 2-hour drive from home, and yet we had not been back to Corpus Christi TX in a while. I enjoyed seeing the new Cole Park Pier and Shoreline trails. The new harbor bridge is coming along and impacting the skyline. #corpuschristi #texashighways #visittexas #roadtrips
