CBS deleted this post and reposted it admitting that their original one was misleading. And the misleading post from CBS was intentionally misleading, not an innocent mistake. CBS continues to lose credibility.

As in Hungary, the authoritarian regime in Serbia is being dismantled . “For years, we failed to fulfill our duty. We kept silent, turned a blind eye, reported events one-sidedly, and failed to ask the necessary questions. For that, we owe our viewers an apology,” news anchor Goran Eror said.

A 2025 Nobel Prize winner in chemistry, Omar Yaghi is the son of Palestinian refugees who grew up in Jordan. He just left the US to move to China after raising concerns about rising anti-immigrant sentiment, like the kind shown here. donmoynihan.substack.com/p/china-than...

A new survey of 1,000 American adults found that the strongest supporters of transgender sports bans are not the people who admire women most: they are the people who hold the most hostile views about women. www.helenwebberley.com/news/transge...

Abdul El-Sayed is a Rhodes Scholar, with degrees from the University of Michigan, Oxford, and Columbia. 84% of Rhodes Scholars are Democrats or Independents, compared with just 14% Republicans. It’ll be great having Abdul in the Senate.

Per a new report from House Democrats, Trump's DOJ is withholding evidence of his ties to Epstein and slow-walking the complete release of the Epstein files. It's time to end the cover-up and expose the truth. Remember this when you cast your ballot. www.ms.now/news/house-j...

I’m seeing people reacting by pointing out that he’s obviously wrong. I appreciate that, but it’s also a pointless exercise. The problem isn’t that he’s wrong. The problem is that this is normal in American politics — and it’s been normal for a while.

What in the ever loving racist incorrect mouth dropping is this??? The Arab world “produces” plenty of “science”… which is all the more impressive since the West periodically bombs all their shit.

Vivek Ramaswamy’s ad targeting Amy Acton’s childhood sexual abuse backfired. It prompted Ohio’s largest newspaper, The Plain Dealer, to reverse its policy on political endorsements and endorse Acton for governor.

It’s always so funny to me when Republicans say that they don’t really vote early because “they have jobs” but election day is also a traditional work day 🤡

My heart is heavy. Walter Koenig, our Ensign Pavel Chekov, passed away early today. Walter and I met on the bridge of the Enterprise in the 1960s, and we stayed friends for nearly six decades. When Brad and I married in 2008, Walter stood beside us as our best man.

bsky.app/profile/fact... It's not that they didn't emphasize they didn't include anything about it. They're misleading the public as their business is crashing right now cuz the prices of what they're selling are down 30% in the last month. It's a goddamn crime and the CNBC assholes say nothing

“Obama insulting my home decorating obsession shows why he isn’t smart and wasn’t a good president” is something I’d swear the Onion wrote to skewer Trump’s vanity. I genuinely wouldn’t believe he could be this petty and ridiculous if I wasn’t watching the video of him saying it in his own words.
