This is the least talked about yet most corrupt activity we’re seeing. www.nytimes.com/2025/05/01/u...

If the Trump administration wanted to oppose antisemitism, they could start with themselves. They are trivializing the concept of antisemitism, making it meaningless — and that is a terrible antisemitic action. www.npr.org/2025/04/29/n...

And now, a note on Bill Owens who, until this past week, was the executive producer of 60 Minutes. We’ll be back next week with another edition of 60 Minutes.

Trump on collapsing visitor numbers to the US: “Not a big deal. We treat our tourists great.” Here’s what the rest of world thinks:

A heavy loss for the 1st Amendment

This should be the top story in Axios’s morning read. But it isn’t. It’s the FIFTH top story. @axios.com www.axios.com/2025/04/23/t...

The head of ‘60 Minutes’ resigns, saying he has lost the ability to make “independent decisions” about the show. deadline.com/2025/04/bill...

The pope was a strong advocate for the poor and the environment and a towering figure on the world stage, addressing not just Catholics but the men and women of our time.

We wish him safety and success. May all of our elected officials show such integrity in these times.

Judge’s order to reinstate AP in White House press pool shows the importance of fighting lawless orders. It’s not just the rights of one that are at stake, it’s the rights of all.

It’s a month since the administration detained and disappeared a green card holder, a lawful permanent resident. We cannot allow this to be normalized or forgotten.

Trump is heading down to Florida today for a LIV golf dinner & tournament at his Doral club (he didn’t even bother to wait until Friday this week). KSA has been good to him and he knows where his bread is buttered. Stock Market is down 1500 points and we’re heading for a global recession. Winning!

If you believe in the power of the arts as I do, this is a must read.

Senior partners at Keker, Van Nest & Peters, a firm of 115 lawyers, write: "partners at big firms — who often earn millions a year — must be willing to take financial risks when the fate of our nation, the future of our profession & the rule of law itself is at stake. www.nytimes.com/2025/03/30/o...

This is painful, and saddening, and embarrassing. I feel like we're losing a member of the family - and for no good reason other than that some Americans wanted another season of the worst reality TV show in history.

⏰ it has only been 10 years, @marshablackburn.bsky.social will probably get around to it eventually

Golden Age of Corruption 🇺🇸 💰

Dozens of people were killed and catastrophic damage across multiple red states due to tornados & wildfires this weekend and Trump is tweeting about winning his club championship in Palm Beach and going to the awards dinner tonight. Well done, MAGA. You picked a real winner.

What's it gonna take for everyone to realize the occupant of the white house is fundamentally anti-American?

Surely this is all very ethical for a President to do while in office www.wired.com/story/people...

A heist in broad daylight. Hundreds of billions, with no benefit to taxpayers. All while pretending we are broke and slashing health care and food for the most vulnerable. Robin Hood in reverse.

Gotta admit this is kinda fun gulfof.mapquest.com
