If you needed more evidence that Bari Weiss isn't the sharpest crayon in the box, the fact that she (a) personally spiked the story (b) in a way that left her fingerprints all over the decision (c) at the last possible minute, thus guaranteeing maximal exposure and blowback.

Via @liamjscott.bsky.social at the other site here’s the full email from 60 Minutes correspondent Sharyn Alfonsi. She’s putting her career on the line by fighting here. And she’s fighting for all of us.

CBS News postponed a "60 Minutes" segment Sunday because it lacked a Trump admin interview, per an email we obtained from correspondent Sharyn Alfonsi, who said the decision by EIC Bari Weiss gave the White House a "kill switch." with @liamjscott.bsky.social www.washingtonpost.com/business/202...

Headlines that cause the rest for the world to spit-take.

He is genuinely pushing for this.

On a related note here is a photo of Barbra Streisand’s house.

UPDATE: in point of fact there is not an innocent explanation for this.

It is only cheaper because the US has absolutely insane construction costs, to be honest. It is more environmentally friendly, however.

No media org has ever set its credibility on fire so quickly.

El PSOE debería probar la sofisticada estrategia política de presentar a candidatos con carisma.

Your daily reminder that you should NEVER ask an AI to do something you don’t know to do yourself for ANYTHING remotely important. (It is fine as a toy, like I make fun cute little software programs. But anything that actually matters? DO NOT TRUST THE ROBOTS)

I wrote about the conservative quest to restore the "true" Constitution, the Antebellum Constitution, shorn of the egalitarian nonsense in the Reconstruction Amendments, a document that replaces equality with a society of dominators and the dominated. www.theatlantic.com/politics/202...

La roja más estúpida y merecida en años. No sé qué demonios estaba Veiga pensando. A Yamal que lo cambien que hoy le matarán.

I would like to volunteer Andrew Tate for another fight. Seriously, seeing him fight was awesome. Go Andrew. More of this. Big fan.

First question on KGB cognitive test is also a picture of lion, giraffe, fish & hippopotamus. They beat the shit out of you until you say the giraffe is the hippo. Explains a lot tbh.

En Four Freedoms, exploramos un poco las tradiciones, política, y cultura de esto de hacer carreras en circuitos ovales durante horas, y sobre cómo Michael Jordan (si, el de los Bulls) quizás ha salvado este deporte. Bienvenidos a NASCAR: www.4freedoms.es/p/salvando-a...

Tapper: This is one of the documents the DOJ released. It’s 100 pages. It’s all black. That’s the transparency we’re getting.

Kudos to Mitt Romney, whom we exposed for his "47 Percent" comments, for coming to the conclusion that "we have reached a point where any mix of solutions to our nation’s economic problems is going to involve the wealthiest Americans contributing more." gift link: www.nytimes.com/2025/12/19/o...

Man, America is a weird place

Here's a quilt of Volume 4 of the Epstein document dump. Gives you a 10,000 foot view of the redactions. that's 2,704 docs.

Pam Bondi and Todd Blanche should be impeached over this.

Fitting that the Donald J. Trump Elise Stefanik announced her political retirement the same day as the Donald J. Trump Department of Justice partially releases the Donald J. Trump Jeffrey Epstein Files.

It would have been MUCH cheaper, and saved a ton of lives, to just equip firefighters with modern, decent gear. But noooo, manly men mentality and outdated equipment were the way to go. www.nytimes.com/2025/12/19/u...

Trump va demolir l’Ala Est abans que ningú pogués protestar, convertint-la en un solar per construir-hi un saló de banquets gegant finançat per donants. Una obsessió presidencial que coincideix amb una caiguda d’aprovació fins al 35 %. Per @4freedoms.es.

I am unironically super hyped for this movie.

Donald Trump just announced the creation of the “Patriot Games,” an “unprecedented four-day athletic event” with “one young man and one young woman from each state and territory.”

NYT statement to me: "David Brooks regularly attends events to speak with noted and important business leaders to inform his columns, which is exactly what happened at this 2011 event. Mr. Brooks had no contact with him before or after this single attendance at a widely-attended dinner."

David Brooks, who wrote in the NYT last month, "The Epstein Story? Count Me Out" is... in the latest Epstein photo dump published by @oversightdemocrats.house.gov. He should absolutely be fired by NYT for this. Major conflict of interest that he didn't disclose.

The thing that baffles me about the trans “debate” is that in the before times, most people did not think about this issue at all. There were trans people, they had their lives, and I just… you know, we were fine with whatever happened? Then a bunch of weirdos got all mad at trans people.

May the odds be ever in your favor

Oh THIS. So hard. It drives me absolutely bonkers that our own government has created first and second class tiers for airport security. It is just anti democratic. Plainly.

AI + nuclear fusion + social media + crypto + Trump. Not a scam at all.

So Rubio started wondering whether Putin maybe wants all of Ukraine. Well, I'll be damned. That's like wondering whether water is wet.

"Changes to centers and institutes were initially projected to save $4.8 million." Bill Belichick's annual salary is $10 million.

At least someone found a non stupid use for crypto.

Venezuela ha invadido Estados Unidos cuando no estaba nadie mirando, parece.

“Plena confianza en el entrenador”.

Hilarious. The WH had all the Cabinet members simultaneously put out statements supporting Susie Wiles after the Vanity Fair article came out.

What could possibly go wrong.
