Bill Owens, executive producer of 60 Minutes, resigned last week. A wow moment — and not in a good way.
Warning: journalistic integrity at this respected institution is under threat.
Why? Paramount (60 Minutes’ parent company) is scrambling to finalize a merger — a deal needing Trump’s approval.

People are NOT understanding what empty cargo ships from China means.
It means no work for dock workers. No work for truck drivers, no work for retailers, fewer dollars circulating. The cascade effect is just mind boggling.

I can’t stop thinking about Andry Hernandez Romero, a loving son & LGBTQ make up artist disappeared by 🟠 with the approval of the GOP to a El Salvador prison of horror.
It’s been reported upon his arrival to the notorious death camp, Andry was terrified, praying and calling out for his mother.

This is deranged. Jan. 6 defendants were repped by one of the best public defender offices in the U.S. They were more likely to be released pretrial & got comparatively light sentences. SCOTUS threw out a bunch of convictions, which almost never happens. They got gold-plated due process!

A culture of fear within the military leads to hostile work environments through abusive behavior. A classic example is the USS Shiloh, where the abuse became so severe the sailors lost all respect for their CO's authority.
