@WhiteHouse Trump's lie-policing credentials: 30,573 false claims his first term (WaPo), ~78% of statements rated false or worse since he's been back (PolitiFact). Now he's banning reporters for "lies." Embarrassing
@GrumpyToeNail@ZreckVic@CNBC Newsmax/Fox News aren't broadcast, that's true. But Hannity and Levin ARE on broadcast radio, which the rule explicitly covers. Carr admitted radio just wasn't the focus of the new guidance, not that it's exempt. Same public airwaves, same rule, different enforcement.
@ZreckVic@CNBC Agreed. However, Funny how "equal time" only seems to apply to the shows Trump doesn't like. Fox News, Newsmax, Hannity, Levin — all exempt. Kimmel and The View — under FCC investigation. That's not a neutral rule, that's selective enforcement. That's the issue.
@CNBC CNBC's headline turns a Senator asking where taxpayer money went into "Bessent attacks Warren" like asking is the aggression. The "dummies" quote made the headline; the unanswered dollar amount didn't.
@SecScottBessent@SenWarren Cute deflection, but Warren asked a simple question you still haven't answered: how much did this "reallocation" actually cost taxpayers? Calling it a swap not a loan doesn't answer that. Maybe take your own tutorial on "answering the question asked."
@bennyjohnson Not really news, most states already audit paper ballots. What's new: DHS tying grant $ to audits + dropping barcode voting. A funding lever, not new power. Intel agencies say machine hacking has never happened. Timing + rhetoric look like groundwork to contest midterm results
@realBrandonGill Inflation hit 9% in June 2022, sure. But it was already ~2.4% by Jan 2025 before Trump took office. It's now 3.4%, higher than when he started. Gas is up 24.6% YoY, coffee up ~19%. Also: jobs went negative in July, GDP growth slowing, bond yields near 20-year highs.
@StephenM Curious which specific policy this refers to. 'Legalize crime, criminalize the middle class' is not in any platform or bill I can find. Typical of this administration to spout a slogan with zero record or facts behind it. Mid terms coming. We are all fed up.
@JesseSBSN Would hope so. They could have drafted Denzel Boston who was a huge need and really good. Tearing up Browns camp. To be playing strictly with 2's and now issues with our wrs...bad look
@SenateGOP You mean the bill your own House blocked from even getting a vote on Oct 10 (Sykes' bipartisan Pay Our Military Act)? Or the Senate bill that handed Vought discretion to pick which workers get paid instead of guaranteeing troops get paid? Own it. Mid terms coming
@NFLMAVERICK Worst sports news ever. I once asked Dan Graziano why he reported slanted on Raiders, honest question and no animosity. He blocked me. Absolute joke
@unusual_whales Election fraud accounts for .00004% in this country. In other words, it's not an issue or altering outcomes. What will alter outcomes is suppression of votes. Exactly what the save act and radical GOP party want. Focus on your failing economy you created and that will help you.
