Don Lemon: “The stock market is not the economy. The stock market is a measure of how much money rich people are making. The farmers who can’t afford fertilizer are not in the stock market. The families digging into their savings just to cover groceries are not in the stock market. The people paying $4 or more for gas are not in the fucking stock market”
Since Trump is unable to bring a receipt of Democrats rigging elections, here's one of Arizona Republicans caught in the act of trying to rig the 2020 election, by signing fake elector forms for Trump.
It would be a shame to keep sharing this and other receipts...
JUST IN: Reporter Catherine Herridge testifies that CBS News locked her out of the building and seized all her files, says she was working with sources to "expose government corruption."
Nothing at all going on here, folks.
"CBS News’ decision to seize my reporting records crossed a red line that I believe should never be crossed by any media organization."
"Multiple sources said they were concerned that by working with me to expose government corruption and misconduct they would be identified and exposed."
"CBS News locked me out of the building and seized hundreds of pages of my reporting files, including confidential source information."
FOLLOW ME, THE NEXT DROP WILL BE SHOCKING.
I’ve been thinking a lot about the extraordinary outbursts of the President of the United States against female journalists... well, actually against journalists in general and journalism. But it feels like he saves his most childlike behavior and irrational language for female reporters, calling them all kinds of names that kids in kindergarten are given times out for. It’s stunning to me to witness such behavior from any leader, any CEO, any person of influence or importance. I’ve never witnessed someone like this raging, this weekend with @meetthepress host @kwelkernbc, just last week in the Oval Office with @cnn’s @kaitlancollins, calling women stupid or piggy, telling them to “smile”, calling them darling, demeaning their credibility. Every good man should denounce this behavior. Every person should be able to stand up for their colleagues and say “No more.”
Imagine this man screaming like this at your daughter, your wife, your sister, your mother... would you stand for it? No, you wouldn’t! And neither should any of us. It’s unacceptable and undignified. Period. End of story.
FL police use A.I. to identify a vehicle theft suspect from surveillance video. Based on an "85% match" they arrest and charge Jalil Richardson. He spends 3 months in jail. He loses his job, his home, and custody of his kids.
Richardson lives in N.C.
He's never been to Florida. And his timesheet shows him at work at the time of the crime. No one checked before charging him. https://t.co/2AcQYwq30f
Keep posting this so nobody forgets that this was one of the worst events in American history.
Never has a sitting president encouraged his supporters to believe a lie so deeply that they’d be willing to attack or democracy.
“Right now, CBS News is on fire”
Scott Pelley: “We need adult supervision and at the moment we don’t have it. We have people who’ve been installed in these jobs who through no fault of their own have no experience in television. It’s not their fault, but they don’t know what they’re doing. There’s a subtle political bias that I’ve never seen at 60 Minutes or CBS News before. That is my hope, a return to sanity. A return to honor, a return to courage. We used to have all of those things in abundance and now we don’t. We can save this. It’s possible to land this plane. But right now, CBS News, in my view, is on fire”
#BREAKING: Rep Madeleine Dean: “…I said to him, Mr Acting Attorney-General [Todd Blanche], when are you going to prosecute? So far we have one dead guy [#Epstein] and one woman in a Summer Camp [Ghislaine Maxwell]. When are you going to prosecute those who victimized, trafficked, abused, raped girls and women, more than a thousand of them? He blamed the victims. He said they really haven’t come forward with the names…right then I knew the coverup was complete.”😳
This is a devastating interview.
Scott Pelley tells the NYT that Bari Weiss directly put a “thumb on the scale” for Trump over the killing of Renee Good.
Here’s his explanation of exactly what happened.
FYI: Social Security has been funded by American workers for 90 years.
Every paycheck.
Every job.
Every decade.
Congress has borrowed $2.9 trillion from the Trust Fund.
None of them asked permission.
You saved it.
They spent it.
Now they’re asking you to accept less.

Susan Rice: One interesting test will be how the Republicans respond to Bill Pulte. Here is somebody that has literally no national security and no intelligence experience. The statute says that's required by law. He has never had a security clearance. He's never touched classified material.
That kind of character with the mission that the president has overtly given him to go and find evidence of rigged elections. That's quite worrying.
This is really stupid, and it’s not getting enough attention.
The Trump administration is pulling a working $368 million ocean monitoring system out of the water, equipment taxpayers already bought, built, and sank into the deep ocean.
And they are doing it right when the oceans are behaving in ways that alarm the scientists who study them.
Record-breaking temperatures.
A system of Atlantic currents that may be lurching toward collapse.
The response?
Yank out the instruments and walk away.
That is not budgeting. That is smashing the gauges while the engine is on fire and calling it efficiency.
For what? The Trump administration dressed it up as a “nimbler approach” and “smart lifecycle management,” which is fancy nonsense for “we shut it off and hoped nobody would ask why.” There is no return-on-investment analysis. They cannot show taxpayers save a dime, because the gear is already paid for and the science it produces protects real money and real lives.
The kicker: the same people killing the monitors want to mine the deep sea for minerals. So they are destroying the only tools that could measure what that mining does. That is not an accident.
That is the point. You cannot see the damage if you break the instruments first.

Just to get facts reasonably straight. Trump lost almost a million citizens due to his pandemic mismanagement. He has destroyed our courts and justice system to go after his enemies. He has made gas, food, housing, all unaffordable with his moronic tariffs and this unnecessary war, he has destroyed our relationships with every other power country in the world, he is doing nothing except ego projects. he has not passed one law or bettered government in any way. He falls asleep in meetings, he babbles nonsense, except to say how great he is. He is an adulterer and a serial sex assaulter. Likely a pedophile but he fights the release of Epstein. He has enriched himself using the presidency. He is a racist, destroying the voter laws, he lies constantly.
This is who you support.
Oh yeah, he is and has always been a damn coward, running from the draft and then disrespecting those who served and paid the ultimate price.
Turn off Fox News.
Children can’t vote, but their hunger is real. Yet, once again, Gov. Brian Kemp has refused to help — vetoing funding for summer nutritional assistance. Georgia families are struggling to afford groceries, rent and health care, and this would be a lifeline. During this election season remember that your elected officials should serve you and the needs of your community. If you're in need of assistance, visit: https://t.co/7Na8k7bgNp
Ossoff: Last September, the President of Kazakhstan calls Donald Trump and says he wants to grant tungsten mining rights to an American company. And the very next month, Eric and Don Jr. get a stake in the American company pursuing the mining deal.
Six days later, six days after Prince Eric and Prince Don get their stake, Kazakhstan announces this company will get, “The largest known undeveloped tungsten resource in the world.” A few more weeks go by, and then the U.S. government, run by their father, sets aside 1.6 billion of your tax dollars to fund and finance their mining project. In Kazakhstan.
All this while you pay more for gas, for groceries, for health care, and that's just the tip of the iceberg.
Trump did this.
He pardoned January 6 rioters, then tried to hand them a $1.8 BILLION taxpayer-funded slush fund as a reward.
Now we’re learning that some pardon recipients have since faced charges involving sex crimes, domestic violence, assault, DUIs, illegal firearms, and other offenses.
The whole thing felt less like compensation and more like an attempt to financially reward and strengthen the militia that attacked the Capitol.
