Jennifer Welch: “Boycott every fucking thing on CBS News. From the morning all the way through to the evening. These are the same people that fired Stephen Colbert because Trump got his feelings hurt by a comedian. These people are the biggest bunch of pussies that masquerade with these grandstanding letters like they’re such badasses. These people don’t care about the truth, they don’t care about journalism, they don’t care about the Constitution, they don’t care about a free press. It’s just absolutely devastating what these oligarchs have done to our country”
Recently-fired Scott Pelley spills all the tea on Bari Weiss' lies, and veteran journalists Don Lemon and Jim Acosta speak out in support.
EVERY COMPANY ADVERTISING ON CBS SHOULD BE EXPOSED AND BOYCOTTED.
Rep. Angie Craig demolishes Ag Secretary Brooke Rollins: "Joe Biden is no longer the president. Mr. Trump is. Your party controls Congress. You own these numbers at this point. I'm sick of hearing you blame an administration from a year and half ago. You own every single bit of this."
Ohio State agreed to pay $100 million to settle legal claims from hundreds of former wrestlers who were sexually abused by a university doctor. Multiple wrestlers and a referee claim that Jim Jordan knew about Strauss’s misconduct and ignored it.

🔥 🧑🌾 “Do you know how many farms we lost last year? 15,000… farmers lost $28 BILLION… I don’t want to hear about Biden. You’ve controlled all of government for 1.5 years… Trump owns every bit of this.”

🚨BREAKING: ICE agents were filmed, once again, assaulting U.S. citizens outside the Kane County Courthouse, in St. Charles, Illinois.
In the video, ICE agents are arresting a man while people film the arrest.
A person tries to get information from the man, when an ICE agent suddenly moves toward her and another woman, pushes them back, while pointing an expandable baton at them, in a threatening manner.
One woman tells the agent that she has a right to record… which he responds by shoving her.
The agent then threatens the person filming, pointing his baton at them, and yells, “don’t follow me.”
As if simply observing law enforcement is a crime… especially when there’s a clear physical barrier separating them.
The First Amendment protects the right to record law enforcement in public. People filming, and not physically interfering, are exercising protected speech.
The Fourth Amendment protects against unreasonable seizures and excessive force. Physical pushing and threatening citizens with a baton, when they are not resisting or obstructing, raises serious questions about whether force is being used lawfully, or as intimidation.
Excessive force standards, used by federal law enforcement, requires any force to be objectively reasonable based on an actual threat or interference… not simply the presence of people recording, or criticizing them.
So, once again…
Filming and observing is not interference.
Standing in public is not a threat.
And this is not about “respecting authority.”
It’s about whether constitutional rights still apply when citizens are watching government agents do their jobs.

Sen. Andy Kim: "It's a choice. Delaney Hall is run by GEO Group. GEO Group is getting a nearly $1 billion contract to run Delaney Hall. They tell me there is one full-time doctor for 800 detainees. They could have more doctors if they wanted to, but that's cutting into their profits."
🚨 WTF?! MS NOW prominent expert host Ali Velshi confirms the police are actively suppressing the press in Newark.
