Jimmy Kimmel: We have the right guaranteed by the Constitution to criticize and satirize our leaders. This is a right that I took for granted until last year when the FCC delivered a very unpleasant surprise. But then I watched as millions of people objected because they refuse to allow our freedoms to be bulldozed like the East Wing of the White House. We will not stand by when comedy and journalism are censored and criminalized.
In her new memoir, "View from the East Wing," former first lady Jill Biden discusses her four years in the White House. She sits down with Sunday Morning's Rita Braver to talk about the legacy of her husband's presidency, as well as the challenges that Joe Biden faced, from the January 6 insurrection by Trump supporters aimed at overturning his 2020 election victory, to a 2024 debate performance that led to Biden ending his reelection bid.
She also discusses her husband's prostate cancer diagnosis; his pardon of son Hunter Biden; and the demolition of the White House's East Wing by President Trump to erect a ballroom. https://t.co/UrNfgKZrP4
BREAKING: Pope Leo XIV enrages MAGA by formally apologizing for the Church's role in legitimizing slavery and for failing to condemn it for centuries, calling it a "wound in Christian memory."
This is truly historic and Republicans are furious...
“It is impossible not to feel deep sorrow when contemplating the immense suffering and humiliation endured by so many in stark contrast to their immeasurable dignity as persons infinitely loved by the Lord. For this, in the name of the church, I sincerely ask for pardon," Leo wrote in “Magnifica Humanitas,” his much-anticipated first encyclical.
While previous popes have apologized for the Christian involvement in the trans-Atlantic slave trade, none has ever delivered such a direct apology for the broader role that the Church played in the survival of that deeply evil institution.
The Vatican at times gave European monarchs express permission to colonize and enslave foreign peoples, slathering their brutal crimes against humanity in a veneer of Christian piety. In the 15th century, Pope Nicholas V went so far as to give the Portugese throne authority to subjugate and rob “Saracens, and pagans, and other infidels, and enemies of the name of Christ” as well as "reduce their persons to perpetual slavery.”
Leo took that history on head-first—
"Already in the early modern period, the Apostolic See of Rome, responding to the requests of sovereigns, intervened several times in order to regulate and legitimize forms of subjugation, and, in certain cases, including the enslavement of ‘infidels,'" he wrote.
"In the development of her doctrine, the Church has gradually come to a deeper awareness of the gravity of these issues," Leo stated. "It is true that past events cannot be judged anachronistically, as though the moral criteria that matured over time had always been available. Yet neither can we deny or diminish the delay with which both society and the Church came to denounce the scourge of slavery."
He added that it "took eighteen centuries" for the Church to "explicitly" recognize its "full incompatibility with slavery."
“This constitutes a wound in Christian memory, one from which we cannot consider ourselves detached,” Leo added.
The pronouncement has already been met with outrage from many members of the online right, who believe that the Western world should never apologize for anything it's done, not even slavery. Social media is aflurry with MAGA accusations that Leo has succumbed to "suicidal empathy" and "white guilt." These are the same people who believe that the Civil War was fought for "states' rights" and that the Confederacy was an admirable endeavor.
“For descendants of enslaved persons, this is once again a much needed apology from the pope,” said Anthea Butler, senior fellow at Oxford University's Koch History Center. She added that the apology empowers Leo to “speak to the current issues of technological enslavement.”
The Pope's slavery apology was part of a much lengthier document whose title translates to "Magnificent Humanity." It's largely focused on humanity's roles and responsibilities as artificial intelligence reshapes the world around us. Leo connected the topic to slavery by warning that these emergent technologies are leading to new forms of human exploitation and debasement, as neocolonialist labor practices are implemented to provide the rare minerals necessary to build AI chips.
The situation in the Congo is particularly dire, with untold masses of men, women, and children being paid next to nothing — and in some cases nothing at all — to work in inhumane, unhealthy conditions mining cobalt.
While so many of our world leaders are failing to confront the challenges and evils of the modern world, Pope Leo is boldly leading the way.

Stephen Colbert was awarded the Robert F. Kennedy Human Rights Award for his advocacy for free speech and speaking truth to power. A fitting honor for a champion of our democracy.

I grew up in Missouri. This song was pretty much played on every Pizza Hut jukebox repeatedly throughout my childhood. It’s perfect for Georgia. Great ad.
David Letterman tells Stephen Colbert, "I will say, and I have every right to be pissed off so I will be pissed off a little bit—because this theater, you folks wouldn’t be in this theater if it weren't for me and Stephen wouldn't be here if it weren't for me and we rebuilt this theater and then Stephen came and I look at this—it's like the Bellagio, but listen, what is wrong here?" and then says "As we all understand you can take a man's show but you can't take a man's voice, so that's the good news."

A suicide note purportedly written by Jeffrey Epstein weeks before his death in jail has been kept secret for years, locked up in a courthouse. That means investigators scrutinizing his death lacked what could have been a key piece of evidence. https://t.co/ep9ObVcJJR
🚨BREAKING: Two researchers from UPenn and Boston University just published a paper that should be uncomfortable reading for every CEO automating their workforce right now.
The argument is straightforward. Every company replacing workers with AI is also eliminating its own future customers. Laid off workers stop spending. Enough of them stop spending and nobody can afford to buy anything. The companies that fired everyone end up selling into an economy with no purchasing power left.
Every executive can see this. The math is not complicated. But here is why nobody stops.
If you do not automate, your competitor does. They cut costs, lower prices, take your market share, and you collapse anyway. So every company automates knowing it is collectively destructive because the alternative is dying alone while everyone else survives. The researchers proved this is a Prisoner's Dilemma playing out in real time.
The numbers are already moving. Block cut nearly half its 10,000 employees this year. Jack Dorsey said AI made those roles unnecessary and that within the next year the majority of companies will reach the same conclusion. Salesforce replaced 4,000 customer support agents with AI. Goldman Sachs deployed a coding tool that lets one engineer do the work of five. Over 100,000 tech workers were laid off in 2025 and AI was cited as the primary driver in more than half those cases. 80% of US workers hold jobs with tasks susceptible to AI automation.
The researchers tested every proposed solution. Universal basic income does not change a single company's incentive to automate. Capital income taxes adjust profit levels but not the per-task decision to replace a human. Collective bargaining cannot hold because automating is always the dominant strategy.
They also identified what they call a Red Queen effect. Better AI does not solve the problem, it accelerates it. Every company chases faster automation to gain market share over rivals but at the end everyone has automated equally, the gains cancel out, and the only thing left is more destroyed demand.
The one thing the math says could work is a Pigouvian automation tax. A per-task charge that forces companies to account for the demand they destroy each time they replace a worker.
The conclusion is that this is not a transfer of wealth from workers to owners. Both sides lose. Workers lose income. Companies lose customers. It is a deadweight loss with no market mechanism to stop it on its own.
Shock? Trump’s FBI Just Disrupted a Russian Spy Operation
The FBI has remotely cut off a Russian military hacking unit’s access to thousands of compromised American routers that the Kremlin was using to spy on high-value targets in the USA and elsewhere.
The FBI has revealed Operation Masquerade, a court-authorized technical disruption of Russian GRU (military intelligence) cyber infrastructure used to steal government, military, and critical infrastructure data.
Since at least 2024, the GRU unit variously known as APT28, Fancy Bear, and Forest Blizzard conducted a DNS hijacking campaign targeting high-value intelligence targets worldwide, compromising home and business routers, such as Chinese-made TP-Link, to harvest emails, passwords, and authentication tokens.
The FBI operation severed GRU access to affected routers in the US and blocked re-exploitation.

The Trump administration is sending more military forces to the Middle East, while at the same time saying Iran has asked for a ceasefire, a claim Iranian officials say is not true.
President Trump is scheduled to address the nation and is expected to provide an update on the war effort and reiterate why he believes it was necessary.

BREAKING: Judge J. Michael Luttig declares lower federal courts are now America's last line of defense – "The only people who can save America!"https://t.co/aNaT5iDCvz
Appearing on MediasTouch, former federal judge J. Michael Luttig delivered a stark warning: for the past five years, every single lower federal court judge has faithfully honored their oath to the Constitution by striking down nearly every major initiative from President Trump as unconstitutional.
"Today, the only people who can save America are the lower federal court judges of the United States of America,” Luttig said. “And they are determined to do so simply by honoring their oath in every one of these cases, now of which there are hundreds."
He described the current crisis as little short of tragic: "Every single time Donald Trump opens his mouth or takes an action, the American people are forced to go into court and litigate it. That's the tragic place that America finds itself in today."
Luttig warned that the only remaining obstacle to full authoritarian overreach is the U.S. Supreme Court, which he suggested is currently blocking the American people from saving their democracy.
This comes as Trump's administration faces hundreds of lawsuits challenging everything from his Iran war to election power grabs, DOJ overreach, and unconstitutional executive orders.
Lower courts have repeatedly blocked or struck down his actions, while the Supreme Court remains the final backstop. Luttig's words reflect growing alarm that the judiciary – especially the lower federal bench –is now the primary institution holding the line against executive overreach.
If you, too, believe that lower federal judges are America's last hope against Trump's power grabs, like and share to spread the message.
