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.

[Tim @trouble_man90]

266,000 jobs under Biden:
“slowed”
“muddled expectations”
“fell short”

172,000 jobs under trump:
“upswing”
“vigorous”
“strong sign for economy”

This is the double standard Dems have had to deal with for the past 10 years.

[Saad Yousuf @SaadYousuf126]

the fact he may carve out time to attend two basketball games merely weeks after saying he didn’t have time to attend his own son’s wedding is objectively hilarious 😂

[David Pakman @dpakman]

The Trump administration has placed me on a list of "media offenders" and is now targeting me for constitutionally protected media work. This is no longer theoretically something that will happen in the future.

[Andrew—#IAmTheResistance @AmoneyResists]

California has been a slow-counting state for years for reasons that are largely structural:

—Massive population (tens of millions of voters).
—Heavy reliance on mail ballots.
—Signature verification requirements.
—Ballots that arrive after Election Day but were postmarked on time.
—Provisional ballots that require additional review.
—State laws that prioritize counting every valid ballot rather than producing instant results.

None of these facts are new. Republicans have complained about California’s counting speed for years, but the same delays occurred when Republicans won races vs. when Democrats won races.

California’s slow vote count is not evidence of corruption or cheating. It’s the predictable result of the same election procedures the state has used for years.

Trump accusing his political opponents of election fraud without evidence every time votes take time to count is incredibly dangerous, irresponsible, and corrosive to public faith in democracy.

Saying this has been "proven"-after endless recounts, lawsuits all CONFIRMED result-is like saying last year's Super Bowl score was rigged despite whole game being on tape. The reason he keeps doing it is bc of the psyche damage that would destroy him if he acknowledges a loss.

I know it’s become pretty cliche and cringey to talk about at this point but if you’re under like 25 I cannot stress enough how one time Obama wore a tan suit and people spent a week arguing over whether or not it was demeaning to the Oval Office and they were serious about it.

In God of War (2018), you spend the entire game mourning a woman who never says a word. She's just a body you carry up a mountain. The next game makes her the hero. And in the old stories, she once fought Thor to a standstill.

Her name is Faye. She dies in the opening, and everything after is Kratos, the bald, furious warrior you play as, and his young son Atreus carrying her ashes to the highest peak in the world. You never hear her speak. You only ever see her wrapped in cloth, then burning on a funeral fire.

What the games slowly reveal is who she was. To the giants she was Laufey the Just, a warrior who led uprisings against Odin and his gods and shielded the weak from them, even breaking their prisoners loose. She fought Thor once and neither of them won. He was drunk at the time, fine, but Thor is the hardest hitter the gods have, so holding him off at all says plenty.

That famous axe Kratos throws and magically calls back to his hand was hers first. The dwarf blacksmiths Brok and Sindri forged it for her, built to match Thor's hammer, and she handed it down to Kratos before she died.

She also quietly set the whole story in motion. She could see the future, so she marked the trees around their home, arranged her own funeral, and aimed Kratos and Atreus straight at the journey that eventually topples Odin. The person steering all of it spent the entire time as a corpse.

Sony revealed God of War: Laufey at their June State of Play, with twenty minutes of gameplay. Everyone figured a prequel, since she's dead. Nope. Creative director Cory Barlog says it's "a continuation of the timeline," starting the moment after that funeral. Instead of resting in peace, Faye wakes up somewhere called the Everywhen, the afterlife of the gods. Dead gods from all kinds of myths claw over the last scraps of power there, and the plans she made to protect her family are already coming apart.

The fighting is built around her, not her husband. Kratos is slow and heavy and hits like a truck. Faye is quick and airborne, leaping and juggling enemies in the air with a magic sword. She can hit an enemy hard enough to knock its soul clean out of its body, then start wailing on the soul itself. Deborah Ann Woll, Karen from Daredevil, plays her again, and the character is modeled on her face. Her first sidekick is a talking jelly cube named Phranque, voiced by Jack Quaid from The Boys.

There's no release date yet, and it's PS5 only. The woman whose death powered two of the best action games ever made finally gets to fight her own war.

It’s time to start talking.

🚨BREAKING: Right-wing streamer Cam Higby was caught on video walking up to a group of protesters and pepper spraying multiple people, outside the Newark ICE Facility.

Then, as people reacted to being sprayed, an armed man pulled him away, telling him, “It’s not worth it… it’s time to go.”

Last time I checked… walking up to a group of people and spraying them with a chemical irritant is commonly charged as assault or battery.

And then, after spraying the crowd, the video show Higby, and the armed man, running into the ICE facility while agents allowed them inside.

Imagine the outrage if a left-wing activist walked up to a group of conservatives, pepper sprayed them, and then disappeared behind federal gates.

The headlines would never stop.

The law is supposed to apply equally to everyone.

🚨 Trump has pardoned Trevor Milton, a man convicted of stealing $695 million from investors.

This pardon came after Milton donated nearly $1 million to Trump's PAC.

[MeidasTouch @MeidasTouch]

If you turned on the TV in another country and saw the leader's daughter-in-law giving him a softball interview on a major "news" channel, you would rightfully assume that country is a tinpot dictatorship.

[Kurt Andersen @KBAndersen]

I'd never seen this -- MAD Magazine, 1991. Really good.

[Democrats @TheDemocrats]

Fixed it

[Melanie D'Arrigo @DarrigoMelanie]

Donald Trump Jr takes a financial stake in a company…

3 months later, the Pentagon gives it $620 million…

after Trump’s White House told them to…

And the company’s valuation rose from
$200 million to $2 billion as a result.

This is corruption.
