Two things: Save TikTok and pardon Joe Exotic. Simple sh*t, George, simple sh*t. You quickly go down as a legend.

Welp sh*t. I am going to vote for Selina Meyer.

This was the largest audience to ever witness an inauguration in the Capitol Rotunda— period.

Your reply intrigued me, do you think this is legitimate or is Elon the fall guy?

Our local newspapers are controlled by one entity, and two national conservative media organizations own all of our regional broadcast stations. Living in a ruby-red area, breaking through the wall, and toppling the bias is problematic. I continue to be diplomatic and meet them where they are.

Thank you for letting us know. Loss is a suitcase you can never finish unpacking. Best wishes to you.

I totally agree, but you have to agree that news that provides essential information requires a subscription. Usually, uninformed individuals can't afford the expense. I no longer watch local news because of the media conglomerate hold.

We live in a global economy and America first will not be prosperous or effective, in my opinion. Hate is a strong word, and I do not hate anyone. I disagree with concepts and approaches, but that does not mean we can not have a conversation, negotiate, and come to an agreement.

I trust Anna Wintour’s eye for fashion, influence, and beauty.

Huh? Them? She did not campaign on any platform, the president-elect’s or one of her creation. Is this spam? Clickbait?
comment in response to post
I am sure. Has she ever done anything for free?

Agreed! Convincing the spouse with the journalist being snagged in the wide net cast by lacking journalist integrity is a tough one.
comment in response to post
Great to hear. Is any follow-up required regarding being a provisional vote, or is it just the election office verifying that she has not already voted?
comment in response to post
Ooooooo. Touché.

Good question. Will a new owner keep any of them? I wonder if those who remained would feel that what is left of their journalistic integrity is being held hostage. Would advertisers bail?

He is not qualified for a cabinet position, and he should not be confirmed. He is a self-proclaimed nationalist and grosses me out.
comment in response to post
Tricky question. If he is accused of sexual assault and multiple witnesses were accompanying her, not him, hotel staff, and sureviencellence video supports his recollection of the event while hers changes…I find it challenging to indict, which they didn't. I recommend reading the actual report.

At least he is starting to be more fair. #prick

Money talks. Do not underestimate a Board of Directors.

Maybe projecting as they are the “predator” or insecure beings needing attention as they are unsure or unsatisfied with their own selves.

Transgender females are not a threat. As police reports, indictments, and convictions show, males with substantial influence over a victim or influence, in general, are statistically more of a threat than any letter in the LGBTQIA+ combined. I say that being gay, and we are called “groomers.”
comment in response to post
No. After watching a previous cable interview with the co-founder, I found her uncompelling and unworthy of credibility. Trigger topics without substance or facts are not interesting.
comment in response to post
Yep, we are cheating; what are you going to do about it? Ha! We have cheated since you have not won. I will start throwing a tantrum when the ice cream machine at McDonald’s is broken. It is all about a rigged system wanting me not to have my McFlurry and purposefully stealing my mcfatty enjoyment!

What is good for the goose is good for the gander! Go ahead and open Pandora’s Box. There are many intelligent people out there who are way smarter than these losers!

I wish The Atlantic would have a Black Friday discount. I let my subscription end. I chose to go another avenues.

He had a great interview with Jon Stewart on The Daily Show. Google or Paramount+ will have it.

They both are scum, but she takes the cake.

Wonderful share!

Paywalls and attacks on what is left do the free press, journalism, and left leaning media is the new normal.
comment in response to post
I hate to say this and I disagree with how the Senator approached it, but the witness interview details and video surveillance would corroborate that belief per the police report. Even the text message between the accuser and the recipient is not as the accuser stated.
comment in response to post
Hey, that is my representative. You have to say out loud, “He is not the worst Senator from Tennessee, that is Marsha Blackburn and her hair!”

I need encouragement to enjoy Nicolle Wallace. Help!
comment in response to post
Will the public hold the Republicans responsible? Republicans control all branches of government, with SCOTUS as the final authority for the judiciary. The horror is that there will be no accountability, and the Democrats will fail to effectively convey that message. It is devastating and unfair.
comment in response to post
I read the released police report, and the witness statements, along with the victim's and accused’s accounts, do not match what is being publicized in the media or on social media. However, I do not want to sound like I discredit what may have happened that night and the trauma since.
comment in response to post
What state do you reside in? Did the polling precinct provide accessible accommodations for your mother to vote? As a former election official, our precinct was not overly accommodating and placed many hurdles for anyone to receive assistance from individuals who came with the voter.
comment in response to post
What baffles me is conservatives, not only far-left conservatives but all, have attacked women with political aspirations for decades. Conservatives have attacked first ladies like Michelle Obama. My late father called her vile and a man. He often referred to Hillary’s reset button. The obsession!

I have so many emotions after reading that. I need to put my thoughts together and then respond. I am hanging on the belief that it is Christian nationalism and not Christianity. As a gay man, I wish this shit would stop and reverse.
comment in response to post
Gurl!
comment in response to post
Oooooooo. The possibility! They are disgusting. I have zero educated thoughts at the moment. As a person in the LGBTQIA+ community, I am tired of uneducated people spewing hatred.
comment in response to post
I appreciated this piece. Well thought out and written.
comment in response to post
I felt that the case was stayed until the decision on the dismissal and response was made. Did the last order grant an indefinite stay on sentencing? I am a rookie and tired.
comment in response to post
I am hopeful—very hopeful. Making the president-elect irrelevant would be a positive move. In my opinion, no conservative politician in the pipeline meets the level of “excitement” for the base as this man does. Now, does he provide the platform and enthusiam for another? Maybe. Gone or dead? Great!
comment in response to post
Why was the “bird flu” epidemic not relayed as a point for the price increase? I understand a large segment of the conservative base does not understand supply and demand, but it is plain silly. The extermination of egg-laying chickens was massive.
comment in response to post
It is disturbing, but I am hopeful there will be movement. State and federal legislation and opinions should not “mingle” in determining cases. Being an elected official should never be a free path to dismissal, nor should it ensure an immediate delay in sentencing. Gross!

James Webb's images are beautiful, but they scare the living hell out of me.
