Sinclair Broadcasting is the Trump ally that pushes right-wing propaganda like this into 40% of local news markets.

Brynn picked the role of villain & using bullying to clearly make scenes/police folks behavior & antagonize them vs building real rapport with the women. Erin stirs the pot in contrived ways but 0 accountability. Utah doesn’t enjoy reality tv. It ain’t working #RHONY

@OscarHealth my health insurance premium went up $200 per month recently with 0 explanation. I cannot get any information from the company & sent to a generic helpline or broker number where I'm told they have no info on the increase. This is extremely poor business practice

[Christina Blacken @CBlacken]

@AyBhollaAtMe @marsisbored Yup. Fame, notoriety and money changes circles esp back then with all the barriers in the way of folks ascending or changing social circles.

@Dr34mS3quins My q is what else is there to show? Meri’s home rennos? Janelle making lasagne with Maddie? I think they are doing the best with what they got lol. Esp bc the kids don’t want to film and the adults don’t even live in the same state anymore.

White voters just voted for a fascist regime because they would rather burn it all down than share. It was a simple choice between white nationalism & multicultural democracy & they chose wrong

[John Pavlovitz @johnpavlovitz]

This election result isn't about Dem messaging.

Their messaging during the campaign was about helping the middle class, continuing with sound economic policies, affordable healthcare and education, the rights of women, strengthening the border, unity.

Kamala Harris and Tim Walz formed a balanced ticket filled with character, intellect, and genuine love for this country, and they eloquently delivered their vision better beautifully.

This election result is about racism, misogyny, lack of education—and an irresponsible media that caters to those realities.

There is no messaging that can overcome prejudice and ignorance, and those two factors are the only explanation for Trump even being the nominee and getting 75 million votes.

We need to stop pretending there is some perfect Democratic candidate or magic messaging to reach people who have abandoned objective reality and chosen to embrace their fears and phobias, while failing to do the slightest bit of work to know what candidates' policies and plans are.

The Dems didn't fail America, they just exist in a nation where far too many people don't pay attention or care to understand what's actually happening. Maybe they will now.

@ItsJustTrista @ibramxk Girl trumps campaign was an entire race hustle for white people. You just don’t consider white a race.

This is insane.

White America isn’t about having Joy it’s about ruining someone else’s.
