At what level of ineptitude might this venture crash and burn, according to the Trump Aniti-Midas touch principle?

BREAKING: The White House is set to launch "TRUMP TV" at 7:00 PM ET.

It will be official state-run media.

[Dale Lature @dlature]

When Trump is confronted with the idea that he is working against free press, he doubles down on his inane and incoherent rambling about FAKE NEWS. Essentially, criticism or exposing his ineptitude for almost every area of his job is "fake", and therefore YES, "Free Press Bad".

So, the first day of fall for 2026 looks like it will be the first day we leave 100F heat index temperature behind for the rest of the year? (maybe? one would hope?) Scary that it has taken this long. Next year, even October temps up there?

@fagmyer @LeonSimons8 Matthew turned 21 in March, Ally June 13, film opened June 3.

[Dale Lature @dlature]

@fagmyer @LeonSimons8 Matthew 21, Ally 21 (both likely 20 during filming and production)

@Stanzupforit So this time it's "How about playing: 'Let's do 1.5C?' " 5/

[Dale Lature @dlature]

@Stanzupforit So it's not a "But"..."an analyst using a chatbot" is not "AI on it's own" but "an analyst", "using" it. I know you are making the same point, but I want us to focus on the way we talk about AI as having "a mind of its own". Just hasn't happened yet. We ARE "letting loose"... 1/

[Dale Lature @dlature]

@Stanzupforit Speaking of "leaving us to pick up the pieces", a previous tweet of yours about this summer having hit us at only just above 1.5C, and only at the beginning of Super-ElNino, is equivalent to M.Broderick's character saying and insisting on "How about Global Thermonuclear War?" 4/

[Dale Lature @dlature]

@Stanzupforit BTW, "WarGames" one of my all time favorites. Used it in my youth ministry days multiple times. 3/

[Dale Lature @dlature]

@Stanzupforit ...our instructions without properly vetting their consequences and effects. Kind of like we did and keep doing with fossil fuels (although now we know and are just denying/lying about it). Taking the profits and running and leaving "others" to pick up the pieces. 2/

They ARE doing what REAL NEWS ORGANIZATIONS do when they do this, and need to do MUCH MORE of it and FAR MORE DIRECTLY condemn the President to his face!!!!!!!

[Aaron Rupar @atrupar]

JD Vance defends Trump's ban on the free press: "They're just not going to get an office in the White House anymore, and I think it's totally appropriate -- unless of course they start to behave like real news organizations"

[Dale Lature @dlature]

@violin4all @SOLARLIFE I laughed hard at that one. Great comeback : "What about his diet? Look no good on photo"....LOL!!!!!!

[Dale Lature @dlature]

LOL. "Looks no good on photo". Great one.

[Solar Life @SOLARLIFE]

American Doctor tells Maasei your diet no good, what about his US diet ? Looks no good on photo

Even the relatively miniscule “relief” from emissions and normal “hustle-bustle” during the COVID early lockdown days of a couple of months resulted in noticeable differences. https://t.co/9VsOX9veSp

@DrKutney You've heard it said "It almost writes itself"? Well, in this particular case, that denier almost wrote it FOR me. It ocurred to me to put it that way because he cluelessly left himself open to it.

[Dale Lature @dlature]

@cheryl_josie Indeed. This person is just a corrupt, stupid, monolith of evil and greed.

[Dale Lature @dlature]

That was the 50s. Only she and the syc-Trump-ophants are trotting that out today.
