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.
Factual thoughts….@ScottPelley and @mhenryschuster were embedded with my Marine infantry unit in 2009—it was incredibly violent in Helmand. They told our story well. Years later, my unit suffered multiple suicides, they came back to cover that too. I wrote him when I was hired.
Literally close to tears at full-time, this ownership is putting us through utter hell.
Credit to Roberto De Zerbi for dragging the depleted squad over the line.
This can’t be celebrated, not for a great club like ours.
Vinai Venkatesham, Johan Lange, ENIC get out of our Club.
@DK_Assist really foul I wasn't given an option for a cash out in my parlay the entire 2nd half of the Thunder/Spurs game and lost the bet by 1 rebound. Such trash
Are you ok with Trump rewarding the people who smeared feces on the walls of the Capitol with taxpayer money?
I’m not.
Jennings was real quiet by this point.
Watch:
Maddow: So in January, Trump buys hundreds of thousands of dollars of stock in Nvidia. Then a week later, his commerce department approves the sale of Nvidia chips to China.
Also in January, Trump buys between 50,000 and $100,000 worth of stock in AMD. One week after he buys it, his commerce department approves AMD doing business in China as well.
The following month, in February, Trump buys millions of dollars worth of stock in Dell. Nine days after he buys millions of dollars worth of stock in Dell, Trump veers off script in a speech in Georgia to tell the crowd literally, quote, go out and buy a Dell computer.
Then in March, Judd Legum at Popular Information reports that Trump repeatedly buys up Thermo Fisher stock, and then he goes and visits Thermo Fisher on a presidential visit and praises the company.
That same day, Trump bought hundreds of thousands of dollars of stock in Apple. And then that same day he bought the stock, he did another event where he singled out Apple and Apple CEO Tim cook for praise. Apple a great company.
Then after that, Trump buys Micron stock. The very next day, he calls into the Fox News channel and tells them Micron is one of the hottest companies.
CNBC reporting Trump makes seven separate purchases of Palantir stock. Hundreds of thousands of dollars worth of Palantir stock. Then he gets on truth social and praises Palantir.
The republican mind is amazing. Zohran has been in the news for:
- balancing the budget without cutting services
- raising taxes on the rich
- cracking down on shitty landlords
- freezing the rent
- universal childcare
what, exactly, is "lunatic" about that? This guy supports a war criminal pedophile rapist con man. That's actual "lunatic" shit.

This man is clearly not well.
Trump went from making insane genocidal threats this morning to hyping the “golden age” of Iran hours later, and he received no concessions in between. He’s an absolute basket case who needs to be removed from power before he follows through on one of his mass murder fantasies.
