the new CBS new anchor is really playing up and amplifying wingnut memes from Musk's platform.
Not much different than Fox, Newsmax or any other right wing propaganda machine. Nice work Bari.

Here's the clip of Tony Dokoupil ending tonight's broadcast by absolutely gushing over "ultimate Florida Man" Marco Rubio.

The President does not get to raise and spend his own separate money. This is Constitution 101 stuff, guys.

Good point from @markjacob.bsky.social, worth thinking through now:
"The media’s general deference to the US military’s need for operational secrecy is likely to be tested in coming months and years. After all, Trump is perverting the mission of the military far beyond legitimate national security"
"The media’s general deference to the US military’s need for operational secrecy is likely to be tested in coming months and years. After all, Trump is perverting the mission of the military far beyond legitimate national security"
“The press has to ask itself: Is it still in the public interest for journalists to keep secrets about Trump’s anti-democratic use of the military?”

Will the press continue to keep Trump’s military secrets?
The goal is protecting the troops, but secrecy can also protect criminality

Tonight on the CBS Evening News, the 5-year anniversary of January 6 got 15 seconds of coverage 25 minutes into the show. The only pictures shown: Pardoned “defendants” marching through DC as Dokoupil said Trump accused Dems of “failing to prevent” J6 while “Jeffries accused Trump of “whitewashing.”

Among many ironies here is that “mafia state” is probably the best descriptor of modern Venezuela. Basically a mafia beef between two gangsters.

Precedents like this render him immune from future gov’t shutdowns. He doesn’t need the legislature’s funds if he can create massive slush funds for himself by looting foreign nations and extorting US companies. He’s achieving escape velocity from our system & Congress is just watching.
Trump: “I am pleased to announce that the Interim Authorities in Venezuela will be turning over between 30 and 50 MILLION Barrels of High Quality, Sanctioned Oil, to the United States of America. This Oil will be sold at its Market Price, and that money will be controlled by me, as President”

This is the kind of thing that the Founders explicitly designed our constitution to prevent; a president who has seized wealth for his own benefit without any intervention from Congress, which in our system is supposed to be the holder of the power of the purse.

one takeaway from the grok noncon porn thing is that much of the media just isn't interested in an issue they can't pretend has two sides or that doesn't give them an opportunity to shit on the left. Also it would be uncomfortable to justify remaining on twitter after acknowledging it

What's funny here is even normies know exactly what they saw on J6. Trump is specifically changing this story in places normal humans don't bother to look while he rewrites history. No ordinary taxpayer is logging on to Whitehouse dot gov to see what he's doing and Jabba knows it
This is batshit.
The White House is doing alternate reality history. It is past time for 25th amendment remedies.
