Michael Wolff said that Epstein warned Trump would use the pardon power in a "childlike" way, and some of Trump's recent pardons seem to indicate, and that he loved to show off his power.

I’m blocking anyone who posts their #spotifywrapped - it’s mostly GenX losers who think they’re still cool and alternative.

I won’t be sharing my Wrapped because I stopped using Spotify years ago when they stood by Joe Rogan. If that wasn’t enough of a reason to leave, they’ve made plenty more since.

Stop giving them money and start buying records again.

I love that the best Spotify can come up with to combat the backlash of last years autogenerated AI podcast about your listening habits that everybody hated is to tell you your “listening age” by averaging when the music you listened to came out. They’ve enshittified everything including Wrapped.

Hakeem Jeffries seems, more and more every day, to not recognize or understand what he should and should not say and do in public and why. And it seems like a very poor decision if it is some kind of political strategy.

Hakeem Jeffries - Fight or Flight?

He chooses freeze, fumble, faint, and flattery of Trump. Yikes.

Can you imagine Mitch McConnell saying something positive about Joe Biden in 2021?

The reason you can't is because Mitch McConnell was good at his job and Hakeem Jeffries isn't.
Jeffries: "The border is secure. That's a good thing. It happened on his watch. He wants to claim credit for it, of course he'll get credit for that. In terms of making sure that we actually deal with the issues that matter, including on immigration, there's a lot that's left to be desired."

I didn't like him before, but when I saw how "Dr." Phil exploited and treated the late Shelley Duvall, I actually began to loathe him.

The Republican Party is an active crime scene. You have Epstein files redacting Trumps name. ICE terrorist attacking American citizens. Trump pardoning the worst criminals. Shooting survivors in the ocean.
This President is a terrorist and every Republican who stay silent are accessory to the crime

This administration can’t pretend it cares about anti-trust only when it helps allies.

If Netflix is too big to own Warner Bros, then so is Paramount/Skydance.
The Orban playbook: use the regulatory powers of the state to ensure media is owned by your allies who turn it into propaganda for the regime.

Here’s Trump intervening to help his ally Ellison’s bid for Warner Bros (and CNN).
