FOX is not real news--at least not in court.
FOX is entertainment TV when in a court of law.
Just like The apprentice was not a real, auccessful businessman...it was entertainment TV.

[James Tate @JamesTate121]

Nailed it.

[Liam Nissan™ @theliamnissan]

If three supreme court justices currently believe that Trump can change the constitution with an executive order that means it's time to expand the supreme court

[Tina Simms @TS2784]

@JamesMartinSJ JD Vance is going to have to change his name, religion, and couch YET !AGAIN

[Tina Simms @TS2784]

@maddenifico That is because Donald Trump is the foretold Anti-Christ!

[Ro Khanna @RoKhanna]

This is an important step towards accountability and transparency. At a time when Americans are learning more and more about the abuses of power that leaders can get away with for unconscionable amounts of time, measures like this are vital and just the beginning.

[Mr PitBull Stories @MrPitbull07]

A young woman named MacKenzie Tuttle graduated from Princeton in 1992 with a degree in English. One of her professors was Toni Morrison, who later described her as one of the finest creative writing students she had ever taught.

After graduation, MacKenzie took a job at the New York investment firm D. E. Shaw. There she met a colleague named Jeff Bezos, who had an ambitious idea: selling books on the internet.

She didn’t laugh at the idea.

They married in 1993, and the following year drove across the country to the Seattle area to build what would become Amazon.

In the beginning, there was no global empire.

There was a garage.

MacKenzie handled accounting, wrote business materials, answered customer emails and phone calls, and packed orders alongside Jeff. Like many startups, everyone did whatever needed to be done.

As Amazon grew, MacKenzie stepped away from day-to-day operations to raise their four children while continuing to pursue her own passion for writing.

Her debut novel, The Testing of Luther Albright, won the American Book Award. She later published a second novel and quietly built a respected literary career.

Meanwhile, the story of Amazon became one of the most famous business stories ever told.

Jeff Bezos became one of the world’s most recognizable entrepreneurs.

MacKenzie’s role was rarely part of the public narrative.

She never seemed interested in changing that.

What many people don’t know is that she also knew financial hardship.

Her family filed for bankruptcy while she was still a student, and she has spoken about the kindness of people who helped her through difficult times—acts of generosity she never forgot.

In 2019, after her divorce, MacKenzie Scott received approximately 4% of Amazon’s shares.

Almost immediately, she made a decision that surprised the world.

She signed the Giving Pledge, promising to donate the majority of her wealth during her lifetime.

Then she did something even more unusual.

Instead of building a massive public foundation or attaching her name to buildings, she began giving away billions of dollars through large, unrestricted grants.

Universities.

Food banks.

Housing organizations.

Rural communities.

Women’s health initiatives.

Tribal colleges.

Climate organizations.

Small nonprofits that had never imagined receiving gifts of that size.

Many recipients reportedly thought the phone calls were scams.

They weren’t.

Since 2019, MacKenzie Scott has donated tens of billions of dollars to thousands of organizations, making her one of the most significant philanthropists of the modern era.

Despite giving away enormous sums, her fortune has remained substantial because of Amazon’s continued growth.

The woman who once packed Amazon’s first orders is now helping fund opportunities for millions of people she will probably never meet.

She never asked for buildings in her name.

She never demanded headlines.

Sometimes the greatest legacy isn’t the company you help build.

It’s what you choose to do with the success that follows.

[Hillary Clinton @HillaryClinton]

Another day, another round of headlines about Trump's unprecedented corruption.

And this is just the stuff there's reporting about.

SOUTH CAROLINA: STOP VOTING FOR GRAHAM!

The rest of America is sick of Lindsey Graham--what has he actually done FOR SC lately?

[Democratic Wins Media @DemocraticWins]

BREAKING: New polling shows Dr. Annie Andrews only 3 points behind Lindsey Graham in South Carolina's Senate race. This would be an enormous flip for Democrats.

[Alex Vindman 🇺🇸 @AVindman]

This ruling is a major setback for democracy, tilting the scale in favor of special interests who pour millions into corrupt career politicians like Ashley Moody so they'll continue to do their bidding in D.C.

The corruption is out of control — our elections aren't for sale.

ask the guy who took a billion dollar jet from them not X

Money for felons who beat police officers: $1,800,000,000

Money for healthcare: $0

BREAKING: Organizations are warning women to stay away from the White House after it was revealed a serial sex offender lives there.

[Seth Abramson @SethAbramson]

Remember, this vile brigand has made $4 billion off the presidency *at a bare minimum*. Given that he doesn't plan to leave office and that all this taxpayer money he's spending is intended purely to benefit him personally in his daily life, why doesn't *he* fucking pay for this?

[Badd Company @BaddCompani]

Bingo!!

[BrooklynDad_Defiant!☮️ @mmpadellan]

Holy sh*t, Mike Johnson tried to get that idiotic, voter suppression "Save America" Act through the House, and the effort went down in FLAMES, 198-222.

Hahaha, LOSER!

[WarMonitor🇺🇦🇬🇧 @WarMonitor3]

Russian forces have been forced to reduce attacks across Ukraine by a massive 30 percent due to an ongoing logistical crisis because of Ukrainian rear strikes.

[Common Sense 🇺🇸💙 @commons96055467]

Jane Doe 4, another trump rape victim in the Epstein files, “staying off the grid” with fear of trump retaliation. How many victims of tump rapes must live in terror of being harmed by trump and his cult? They are hiding because their rapist is not charged and is on the loose.

[Gavin Newsom @GavinNewsom]

The Constitution barely survived today.

By a 5-4 vote, Trump’s Supreme Court declined to let him rewrite the Constitution and end birthright citizenship.

We’re hanging on by a thread. The fight to defend our democracy is far from over.

[Mueller, She Wrote @MuellerSheWrote]

Everyone should be extremely concerned that birthright citizenship was 5-4 and not unanimous.

[Brad @BraddrofliT]

Donald Trump wants taxpayers to cover the $83.3 million judgment owed to E. Jean Carroll. The self-proclaimed billionaire who says America is “winning” now wants you to pay for his personal misconduct. Your tax dollars are not his legal defense fund.

[Annie @AnnieForTruth]

Of course, Trump and Hegseth canceled a tradition of honoring our fallen women at Arlington Cemetery. 🤬
