March, 2024. 60 Minutes does a segment on the "rampant disinformation" on X since Elon Musk purchased the site.
Leslie Stahl: "The site is rife with trash talk and lies."
60 Minutes actually used a post that had gotten a Community Note for being fake as evidence that X is now "rife with disinformation."
60 Minutes warned that the "disinformation" on X could ruin elections and threaten democracy. 😂
Fun facts. Before the 2020 election Leslie Stahl told the world that Hunter Biden's laptop was just a conspiracy and that it had been discredited. Both lies. Before the 2024 election 60 Minutes edited Kamala's answers to make her sound coherent. Watch out for those posts with Community Notes on X though.
My son's elite private high school school held graduation last week.
There were roughly 100 kids in the graduating class. Lots of extremely bright kids. Probably 20 IB diplomas. And maybe a dozen of those kids were Cum Laude Society too, including my son. These kids are incredibly smart and hard working. They had straight A's throughout high school, at an elite school, in the most challenging curriculum and earned the highest SAT scores.
Out of the entire class, there was only one student who was accepted into an Ivy League school. One. But he didn't earn an IB diploma. He wasn't Cum Laude Society. Or on the Head Master's List.
He is a great kid. And I'm happy for him. This isn't, in any way, a criticism of him. But, you already know -- he had something none of the highest achieving kids had.
Something has gone terribly wrong with our society when the very brightest kids are systematically barred from the most elite academic colleges in the country. And especially when the board of the school and its staff see absolutely nothing wrong with this outcome.
In fact they will, undoutably, call me a bigot -- again. But when will they fight for our sons?
They won't. Our sons are the wrong color.
P.S. In the middle of the ceremony, the American flag left of the stage fell over and hit the ground. The school's headmaster picked it up. But he didn't know how to fix the mount. So, he just stood it back up and let it fall over again. Twice. Finally a man who was obviously a former member of the armed services came over and, standing at attention, held the flag upright. Tells you 100% everything you need to know about the headmaster and the culture of that school.
Scott Pelley’s NYT interview is an unintended eulogy for legacy media and a portrait of a man blubbering and seething in denial of his irrelevance. As a cultural document, it’s fascinating.
🚨BREAKING: Sir Malcolm Walker, founder of Iceland supermarket, has come out to say "two-tier policing exists," revealing police arrived instantly to one of his stores after a fake accusation of racism, but didn't attend when staff were seriously hurt by shoplifters
Shocking.
🚨 Meet Doris, she lives in California and is registered as a 126 year old who has voted in 51 elections and has NO IDEA.
California’s voting system is so corrupt that by simply knocking on the door of the “126 year old” proves election fraud.
EXPOSE IT ALL.
Remember everyone…we are still in the lead, and we’ve got allllllll the way til July 6th to keep counting. They’re not the only ones who know where to find votes 😉
I actually agree with Trump. Rare case where walk-off is appropriate. She kept interrupting, and Cali elections are a sham. It can’t be acceptable to a journo that “state and local officials said.” She should ask Gavin Newsom about how Cali counts votes.
It’s almost like Florida is the only state smart enough to monitor these planned teen takeovers online and stop them before they happen. The reason is simple: the same agencies watching for larger threats are paying attention to what is being organized in their communities.
If your city or state can’t prevent something that is openly planned across social media, you should be asking some serious questions about whether they are prepared to detect and respond to more sophisticated threats.
And if you want to understand how these events are organized, coordinated, and spread online, check out my episode of @The_Watch_Floor where I break down exactly how the planning works.

In supporting Graham Platner, Democrats have abandoned #MeToo's "believe women" slogan. They should now take responsibility for the damage #MeToo caused, including false accusations, the demonization of male sexuality, and the crippling anxiety behind Gen Z's romantic recession.
Five and a half years later—with new revelations related to what happened before and on January 6—the regime media absolutely refuses to consider that the Biden DOJ/Wray FBI abused their power to investigate, prosecute, and help convict more than 1,000 Americans for their participation in the protest that day.
Welker, like all other “journalists” and reporters of her ilk, actually think the unprecedented number of plea deals is the result of legitimate prosecutions rather than abuse of authority—particularly threats to turn misdemeanor cases into felonies—to extract plea deals.
They don’t entertain for a SECOND that perhaps something is off with a 100 PERCENT CONVICTION RATE before DC juries. Or question how the Biden DOJ got away with for years bringing the felony 1512c2 charge against 300+ J6ers (and the president) before SCOTUS determined the statute had been unlawfully applied.
The single minded focus on those charged/convicted of “assault” on police—when the 18 USC 111 statute also applies to “interfering” or “impeding” federal officers—allows the media to ignore the hundreds of other low level misdemeanor cases that nonetheless resulted in torturous investigations and prosecutions, rigged trials, and time in federal prison.
Corporate media is as responsible as the Biden DOJ, J6 committee, and federal judges in continuing to perpetuate lies about J6 and intentionally misleading the public about what happened in the largest criminal investigation in US history. Good for the president for pushing back and for his justified anger here:
I’m posting this throughout the next election.
People still don’t believe me when I tell them about the Democrats and what they are doing here in Washington.
Ignorance is not an excuse.
