Even after we deal with Trump, we'll be cleaning up the mess he created for decades. Once you mainstream bigotry, it takes a long time and a lot of work to make it shameful again.

Who is dropping out of BRICS? What are you talking about? You essentially taxed your own importers.

Why is nobody following up on this.

“The photo is probably the worst in history. They ‘removed’ my hair and added something floating above my head — like a tiny crown. Very strange! I’ve never liked photos taken from below, but this one is just terrible and should be withdrawn,” Trump wrote

Weiss is also a big believer in nepotism, hiring her wife and her sister at her billionaire-backed media outlet that was purchased for a ridiculous amount of money by CBS.

Don't expect any real news moving forward, but more billionaire-friendly stories about how bad anyone on the left is.

For anyone wondering is it possible to create a worse mainstream media news channel than Fox, brace yourselves. CBS is now run by a Trump-loving billionaires nepo baby, who just hired a rightwing scammer to lead the news.

Weiss' history of bullshit is long and ugly. youtu.be/gieTx_P6INQ?...

Trump: "We're not gonna go into a war. But if we do, we're going to win that war like nobody has ever won a war before. We will not be politically correct."

For anyone even thinking about visiting Florida, it's worse than you imagine. Who wants to deal with gun toting nuts while shopping for groceries?

A very narrow hostage deal Trump had nothing to do with was made, after which Netanyahu immediately (a) attacked the West Bank, and (b) said the military campaign in Gaza would continue.

I literally have no idea why any media anywhere is covering the Trump victory lap as having any meaning at all.

And no guarantees despite the ceasefire.

Many Palestinians in Gaza felt there was little to celebrate on Monday. “It’s important that the bombing has stopped, but there’s nothing to be happy about,” said Saed Abu Aita, 44. “My two daughters were killed, my home was destroyed and my health has deteriorated.”

Gazans See Little to Celebrate Even Though the Bombs Have Stopped

The cease-fire in Gaza has taken hold. Hostages and prisoners have been exchanged. But amid the utter devastation of two years of war, a sense of gloom pervades.
