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.

dude, you got yourself kicked out of two boarding schools, your Harvard application is rumored to have consisted of two words - "Harvard" and "Kennedy" -, your peers there say you were a dealer in college, your roommate reportedly wrote your senior thesis for you, and you failed the NY bar twice

During an interview with Roop Raj on a local Fox affiliate in Detroit, Michigan Trump made several misleading and false statements about the auto industry and U.S. manufacturing. I've included a brief fact check.

RFK talks about autistic and Arabic people the exact same way. He assumes they are not capable of ordinary or extraordinary achievements because of who they are. He considers them sub-human because they are not like him. This makes it plain that his is a white supremacist eugenicist project.

They filed this on the literal LAST day before the statute of limitations expired. Literally, the very last day. Give me a break. This is garbage.

The DOJ has a new criminal case against former FBI director James Comey, this time related to the transfer of national defense information in 2016 storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

Jammin reposted

I'm going to say this for probably the 20th time now .... Comey was an Original Classification Authority at the time he allegedly disseminated the national defense information at issue here. Assuming it was FBI information, he had the authority to declassify it at his discretion.

Jammin reposted

As FBI Director, he absolutely had the authority to direct those staffers to do that. He was an OCA, he could do that. This case is garbage on procedure and on substance.

Trump’s DOJ has charged James Comey AGAIN, this time under the Espionage Act over a 2016 New York Times story. In DOJ’s own words, Comey had staff talk to a reporter to “correct misinformation” in a Reuters article.

This case should be dead and over with before Christmas.

House Majority PAC, which supports Democratic candidates, argues that the House battlefield is expanding in the final week of the midterms The group says the GOP-authored gerrymandering appears to be backfiring and opening up new opportunities to flip GOP seats

Everyone keeps asking me how I’m feeling about early voting so far. I’m feeling like nobody *actually* knows anything, and this is the most important midterm of our lives. I’d rather be us than them, but we can’t get comfortable. We can’t get complacent. Go vote like we’re down 3%.

So basically someone told Trump today what Cheesecake Factory was, and it probably took a little while to explain to him that they aren’t local factories that make cheesecakes. But he probably still isn’t quite sure what they are.

I guess he doesn’t disagree about the Saddam Hussein part?

Trump is BIG MAD about Obama saying the White House now looks like Saddam opened a Cheesecake Factory: "He's not a smart guy. He's not smart at all ... for you to say it's a Cheesecake Factory, that just shows why you were a lousy president"

It is genuinely weird that Trump has spent his whole life surrounded by extraordinary wealth and still has the absolute trashiest, tackiest taste imaginable.

I dont know if it's because they love republicans and want them to win but holy crap is this an embarrassment. the equivalent of reckless disregard in terms of journalism fuck ups. Just the simplest damn googling.

The only reason I can think of for this news not being absolutely everywhere is that large media orgs don’t want to be seen as putting their thumbs on the scales a week before election day. And that’s cowardly as shit.

The man who has spent more money on politics in the last 2 years than George Soros has in his entire lifetime never says anything positive about his guy Ken Paxton. But he does serve up a steady diet of this stuff.
