Good god this is a crazy interview. Listen as Scott Pelley describes how Bari Weiss wanted journalists at CBS to cover the killing of Renee Good in Minnesota. This is why we can’t have oligarchs running our news outlets, this is absolutely devastating.

🚨 BREAKING: Trump has a complete MELTDOWN on Meet the Press.

Kristen Welker presses him on his wild California election conspiracies. Trump calls her “crooked” and “stupid,” calls the press crooked, calls Meet the Press crooked, and throws a tantrum about how unfair everything is.

Then he dramatically storms out mid-interview like a toddler who lost at recess.

Classic Trump: zero answers, all insults, instant exit.

Thank you, Kristen Welker — this is how you handle him. 🔥

People used to say Donald Trump was a poor person’s idea of a rich person.

Graham Platner is a rich person’s idea of a poor person.

@417craig @coachratz76 @harrisonjaime A black man in Marietta, Georgia and a Latino found man in Washington, D.C., both hung from trees are not projections. This is our horrific reality

[Leslie D @lesliedimas]

@MysteryFountain @NickyFrank30 He paid a Latino influencer 400K. Yes it is his fault.

[Leslie D @lesliedimas]

@NickyFrank30 HOW is this surprising? California was LITERALLY once Mexico. California has the most registered Latino voters of ANY state, duh! Steyer paying a Latino influencer 400K is not it when people can't afford gas or groceries. Be f*cking for real people!

[Neera Tanden🌻 @neeratanden]

Oh maybe Latinos in CA were excited by the idea of a Latino Governor-- who would have guessed that.

[Leslie D @lesliedimas]

@iamchanteezy Older Mex Americans are not socialists. Gen Z lean left but not all. Him being the first ELECTED Latino governor of CA is not "Identity Politics", it is cultural pride. Not only is he qualified but being of the people is a big deal. @JasmineForUS endorsement helped seal his win.

[Leslie D @lesliedimas]

@Rizabellepow Rebecca Katz worked on Gallego's '24 Senate race. The narrative coming from that camp was that Gallego received more votes than Kamala Harris. This was seen as VERY machista and racist amongst Latina and Black voters. Not a good look since he wants to run for President.

[Longtime Black Man Here @groove_sdc]

No I don’t want Susan Collins to win.

No I don’t want Ken Paxton to win.

But I didn’t want Trump to win in 2016 or 2024.

And you mufuckas seemed to not care.

So fuck your urgency now.

Should’ve had that same energy then.

[The Associated Press @AP]

BREAKING: Former U.S. Secretary of Health and Human Services and Democrat Xavier Becerra has advanced to the general election for California governor.

[Xavier Becerra @XavierBecerra]

California has spoken. Thank you for standing with us. To every volunteer who made a call, sent a text, knocked a door, or showed up when it mattered most — this victory belongs to you.

We're just getting started. On to November.

[Chicago White Sox @whitesox]

DEREK HILL! 😮‍💨

[Xavier Becerra @XavierBecerra]

More than ever, California needs our voices and our values. To the people and the voters of California, this is your state.

Este es tu estado.

We will not be bought. We will not be bullied. And we are never backing down.

[Yemisi Egbewole @yemisi]

@trouble_man90 It’s so frustrating watching the party make Black candidates jump through hoops and be damn near perfect just to be trusted, while an unwashed white guy with a Nazi tattoo and a history of disturbing behavior gets an almost cult-like defense.

[Hunter Biden @HunterBiden]

@SoundDobad I know this may sound petty, but I can’t stand it when people put photoshop a meth pipe in my mouth. A crack pipe doesn’t have that little bowl at the end. This is why we can’t trust AI. Please make the appropriate edit. Thank you for your attention to this matter.

[Christopher Webb @cwebbonline]

Not gonna lie, this is a badass museum donation.

🇺🇸 Shonda Rhimes donated the Oval Office set from Scandal, the same one fictional President Fitzgerald Grant called home for seven seasons.

Now it’s part of the Obama Presidential Center Museum

[Leslie D @lesliedimas]

@loonyberg @ryanjmccomb Sweetie you live in Texas. I understand you are surrounded by MAGA, maybe don't think like them. You say all this but Steyer is an ACTUAL billionaire. I'm not privileged enough to follow the crowd. I do not understand your need to prove you are right, no one cares.

[Lucy 🟦🟧 @boohoo2259]

Coming from a former crack and opiate addict: you can't humiliate or beat down Hunter Biden. He's already done that to himself, so don't waste your time. He beat the odds. He can only go up. He's a role model for sobriety.

[MLB @MLB]

The @WhiteSox put up 8 runs in the shutout win!
