Not only is ICE snatching hard working people who are trying to earn a living, they’re taking their money too?

A witness recorded ICE agents taking a cash box from a taco stand in La Puente during an operation where four people were arrested.

The Washington Press Corp is a gallery of cowards.
“You’re the most obnoxious reporter in the whole place. A terrible reporter.”

Trump again attacks a Black female reporter, ABC’s Rachel Scott, for asking about releasing the full boat strike video - which he said he would do 5 days ago

And the other journalists stay silent🐔

Reader, he is, in fact, making this stuff up
Kudlow is just lying to his viewers: "Unemployment is at rock bottom. These are real facts. I'm not making this stuff up. Unemployment claims are as low as they're ever going to get."

These deals are only good for bankers and executives, who make hundreds of millions.

Audiences, artists, and employees all get screwed.
Interesting tidbit is here is that if WB accepts the hostile bid, WB owes Netflix $2.8 billion for breaking the deal, so the realized cost of the Paramount bid would be about $111 billion
Breaking News: Paramount made an offer worth $108 billion for Warner Bros. Discovery days after the company agreed to a deal with Netflix.

Trainwreck? In October 2024, The Economist called Biden's economy "the envy of the world."
BARTIROMO: What are you expecting the president's economic message to be?

SEN. McCORMICK: I think the message is that we inherited a trainwreck from the Biden administration and we made a lot of progress

it's cool how every day there's a news story about the CDC changing vaccine recommendations and it's right next to a news story about how a kid died from a disease that last killed in 1893 but any reporter that tries to connect the two gets fired by a venture capitalist for taking up ad space

It's going to be hilarious to see this very one-sided approach backfire. No one wants RUSH HOUR 4 or a return of Brett Ratner.

Since the GOP is openly against immigrants now, I assume they're calling for anchor baby Barron Trump and his immigrant mom Melania to be deported, right?

He's the son a criminal, Donald, held liable for fraud, sexual assault & partied with a pedophile. A family of grifters and moochers, right?

It may sound radical, but if one guy has so much wealth and power that he can use the large newspaper he owns to publicly threaten to ruin a service we all rely on, presumably as a bargaining tactic to get lower rates, we probably need to tax that guy until he can't do that anymore.

But Amazon may give up its long-standing partnership with USPS to deliver packages itself, which could spell disaster for the mail agency.
