I know I'm not supposed to be surprised.
Trump ignores a question from a woman reporter but says, "I just like to watch her talk. Good job. Thank you darling."

Very jarring how the media treats some lives as inherently and others not.

Love to hear this. Thank you for telling me!
suddenly i feel better about my own social media.
Update: Bari Weiss’s first pitch at CBS — a roundtable with Antony Blinken, Mike Pompeo, and Hillary Clinton that ended up being a virtual interview with Clinton & Condoleezza Rice — has about 150 viewers on YouTube.

Added with the 24/7 CBS stream, it’s just over 1200 viewers.
Be honest: You could keep scrolling, or you could be baking and eating cookies like this one from my new cookbook, The Secret Life of Chocolate Chip Cookies. Which would you prefer?https://www.barnesandnoble.com/w/the-secret-life-of-chocolate-chip-cookies-marissa-rothkopf-bates/1147054241

He truly might as well be saying that there are herds of big green cows grazing on the moon.
Trump: "I don't know what could be worse than Portland. You don't even have stores anymore. They don't even put glass up. They put plywood on their windows."

I feel like this photo of masked, armed men pepper spraying a pastor protecting his community is going to be a defining picture of this moment in America for a long, long time.

A Republican Trump supporter pleads guilty to child sex abuse charges. Think it’s Epstein? Think again.

MAGA is avoiding talking about it, but I'm covering the criminal case of TX megachurch pastor, Robert Morris, & why Republicans are the biggest hypocrites of them all.
