I had to watch this five times to be sure it’s not AI. Nope. It’s real. Just one of Boston’s Finest being ambassador to the world.

No, Mr. President. The 2020 election that you lost was not "rigged" or "dirty," handing out $1.776 billion to violent insurrectionists is not a "good idea" & reporters who ask questions about your bogus claims are not "crooked."

You are a president, not a dictator. Act like it.

BREAKING: Scott Pelley Just Made A Pretty Stunning Allegation.

According to Pelley, CBS leadership wanted a story about the killing of ICE protester Renée Good changed to better match Trump's version of events.

Pelley says he was told management wanted protesters portrayed as more violent and wanted Good described as driving toward the officer who shot her. He says the video evidence showed otherwise.

Then came the admission.

"There was a thumb on the scale for the president's version of events."

A veteran journalist with 37 years at CBS is alleging political pressure was applied to change the facts of a story.

That's a remarkable accusation.

Whitehouse: "If you look at all the Court's elections decisions, every one has the effect of helping the GOP. If you look at all their regulatory decisions, every one has the effect of helping the fossil fuel industry that funds the GOP. You can predict with perfect certainty what happens. The Callais decision stood this Court naked before the country as a partisan institution."

Anyone who ever worked behind the scenes on a show with Stephen Colbert knows he is an absolutely fantastic person. One of those folks who has a knack for making everyone feel special and his presence is a gift. I was assigned to him as a wrangler on ‘Night of Too Many Stars’ back in ‘17. There was a moment where a talented young performer on the spectrum was going to play piano on stage and due to a miscue some confetti came down which distracted her and stopped the performance. This may have been dress rehearsal if memory serves. I remember a tense moment as talent & producers huddled next to stage right monitors wondering how to proceed or if the item should be cut. Astute and sensitive folks seemed frozen as to the right move. Suddenly Stephen said I got this guys and walked out onto stage, sat with her at her piano and comforted her and conveyed how much he alone wanted to see her play, ‘do the song as if your just playing for a friend, never mind the distractions, I know it’s scary but I’m right here with you’ She played wonderfully and in that moment in my eyes you saw the measure of the man, a father, a friend, a fellow performer reminding us all why we were really here and what truly matters in this life: love and humility and lifting each other up. We could all use more of that in this world right now and I have now doubt his light will continue to illuminate. He’s also a Radiohead fan & a brilliant comic, what more could you want in this life.🙏

End Citizens United's Justin Unga: "Corporations and billionaires poured billions into our last presidential election, and this is what they bought for themselves. A president who has made it his top priority to make his wealthy friends even wealthier, and a Congress led by Speaker Johnson and Leader Thune that was all too willing to pay it forward for their big corporate bosses. We have a government that has been auctioned to the highest bidders, and that means big oil and gas, they get to decide how clean our air is."

@davidshor The price of gas and cost of living numbers are dramatic, if unsurprising. Still, it depresses me to no end that 48% of respondents approve of Trump's immigration policy.

Trump had another mental health episode and spiraled out of control on social media last night:

12:18am - Demands Chuck Schumer resign
12:19am - Posts a tweet saying Obama tried to “overthrow the government in 2016.”
12:22am - Reposts a statement from Sen. Mike Lee calling for the filibuster to be removed
12:27am - Posts a conspiracy video alleging Obama and Hillary Clinton committed treason
12:27am - Posts a tweet from a MAGA account calling for Obama and Clinton to be arrested for treason
12:28am - Another post calling for treason charges against Obama and Clinton
12:28am - Yet another post demanding treason charges for Obama and Clinton
12:29am - Posts an AI image of a man holding a sign
1:13am - Demands the 2020 election be “wiped from the books and be of no further force or effect.”
2:43am - Posts about Clint Eastwood complimenting him
2:44am - Posts about Elon Musk calling the Southern Poverty Law Center a “scam”
2:45am - Posts about a far-right podcast

This man is not well. He is a demented lunatic who is spiraling out of control. He must be impeached and removed from office.
