I just had to endure a several minute propagandized news segment from NewsNation on my local news channel 33 Youngstown (WYTV 33.1) about 5:30 am this morning actually made Trump look good in all this. And he's not good in all this. Yes, it's owned by Nextar Media Group. Gag me with a spoon.

His insane overreaches are giving Americans a new appreciation for free trade, immigration, and international alliances.

DOJ plans to declare as “domestic terrorists” any Americans who express:
“opposition to law and immigration enforcement; extreme views in favor of mass migration and open borders; adherence to radical gender ideology,” as well as “anti-Americanism,” “anti-capitalism,” and “anti-Christianity.”

Mighty Proud Arrogance here —
The Supreme Court is flirting with a power grab that would make even Machiavelli proud. At the urging of the Trump administration, justices are weighing overturning Humphrey’s Executor v. United States, a 90-year-old precedent protecting independent agencies from becoming presidential puppets.

Congratulations to Fox News!!
Wow it's only taken just short of 10 years for the majority of Americans to finally realize Trump is really who he is.
In fact, let's congratulate American Media for this debacle!

Enten: "This is probably the worst 10 day period for the president in the polls his entire second term. The numbers are just atrocious ... when your best poll has you 14 points underwater, you know it's truly bad and it's as bad as 26 points underwater ... -43 with independents! They despise him."

The 'Thanksgiving Walmart package proves lower prices' is the con job that will Trip Trump Up with MAGA, but the pedophile shtick will put him out and send him packing.
KARL: The president claims that Thanksgiving costs are down 25%. Does he know that's not true?
HASSETT: Well if you look at Walmart--
KARL: Wait a minute. I've gotta stop you. The Walmart package this year contains much less than the one last year. That's why the price is less.

No. Just no. I don't want any of this. And I don't want this popup distracting me while I try to work.
What I want is a "SHUT THE F**K UP" option.
In my opinion, the way big tech companies try to force feed us their AI solutions is a sure sign that they are desperate.
The AI bubble will burst.

Sufficient time elapsed to 'Scrub' the Epstein files and right now a good time to release?
President Trump on Sunday urged House Republicans to back a measure that would compel the Justice Department to release the Epstein files, a sudden reversal after his campaign to tamp down Republican dissent and halt the vote.
Trump Says House Republicans Should Vote to Release Epstein Files
President Trump reversed himself as he faced the prospect that dozens of Republicans could vote this week to compel his administration to release files related to Jeffrey Epstein.
