Holy cow, does this ever ring true.

When I worked in live TV I did over a dozen Super Bowl Halftime Shows, NBA Allstar Games & U.S. Opens. I did exactly ONE NHL Winter Classic at Yankee Stadium. Could not get away fast enough. NHL is exactly what u think it is and probably much worse now.

This is not a fake narrative being peddled by leftists in the media. It is exactly what Anthropic is saying. They aren’t prepared to give up on these 2 conditions and are willing to put their $200 million contract at risk over it. All Hegseth can say is, ‘Trust me, bro.’

The richest man owns X. The second and third richest men control Google. The fourth richest man owns Facebook, Instagram, and WhatsApp. The fifth richest man owns The Washington Post. And now the sixth richest could soon take over both Paramount and Warner Bros. See the problem here?

So I just got a statement from California AG Bonta's office: "Paramount/Warner Bros is not a done deal. These two Hollywood titans have not cleared regulatory scrutiny — the California Department of Justice has an open investigation, and we intend to be vigorous in our review"

This photo perfectly captures what the Epstein case is to these people.

It’s rough out there and I’m trying to make room for joy. Here are ten baseball things that have made me giggle this spring: open.substack.com/pub/mollykni...

What are they thinking? Because the more they smear those with even the thinnest connection to the Epstein files, the more they remind us that Trump is everywhere in them.

Analysis | If the right-wing Ellisons are allowed to purchase CNN, they could order Jake Tapper to obsessively focus on Biden's age, or demand that Van Jones to say Trump truly became president today, or allow Scott Jennings to brazenly tell baldfaced lies on a nightly basis.

A senior CBS News staffer expressed sympathy for employees at CNN who are frustrated and upset over the Paramount news. "I need to keep reminding myself it can - and will - always get worse," the staffer told me, adding that CNN staffers "should" be freaking out since "it's hell over here."

Hillary Clinton: "It then got quite unusual because I started being asked about UFOs and Pizzagate"

i may be biased, but this is correct.

If you're wondering how the "mainstream" press covered Trump's State of the Union, it was indistinguishable from a GOP press release.

What did Trump officials tell the Netflix CEO today at the White House? Looks like crony capitalism with the President corrupting the merger process in favor of the billionaire Ellison family.

Hillary Clinton speaks out following her deposition on Epstein; Netflix backs out following Paramount's offer for WBD; More world leaders face consequences over the Epstein Files; and more. Watch the MeidasTouch Podcast live at 8p ET/5p PT!

it's the same thing everywhere. "if i don't win, the election wasn't legitimate."

The Trump administration has just deleted this photo of Trump Cabinet Secretary Howard Lutnick with Jeffrey Epstein on what appears to be an island.

Donald Trump’s plan to steal the 2026 midterm elections is already underway.

Here’s the image of Howard Lutnick palling around with international child sex trafficker Jeffrey Epstein that Donald Trump & JD Vance’s administration has deleted from the release in their coverup of the Epstein files. www.thedailybeast.com/howard-lutni...

Hillary Clinton’s fire and fury opening statement to the House Oversight Committee.

JUST IN: Advisors to Hillary Clinton say the House Oversight Committee’s closed-door deposition has been paused after it was revealed that Lauren Boebert shared an unauthorized photo from the hearing with Benny Johnson, who then posted it on social media, as seen below.

"Pardon me?", literally.

This is bigotry, pure and simple. open.substack.com/pub/erininth...

Sometimes I think he’s just trolling us. But no, he really is this stupid.

NEW: WSJ now confirming my reporting that the DOJ is withholding at least three FBI interviews with a woman who told the FBI that Trump sexually assaulted her when she was a child www.wsj.com/us-news/law/...

These fucking bastards are resigning from their fancy positions and saying,"I deeply regret my association with Epstein." Yeah, right. They mean, "I deeply regret getting caught for associating with Epstein. The girls, though, the girls were really cute." A pox on them all. Without penicillin.

Burn it all down

That’s definitely a bathtub

In thee Mideast many think war between the US and Iran is inevitable. But experts don’t think the result will be any improvement on the nuke deal we had but Trump broke. In fact, what we end up with will likely be worse. Important conversation. I encourage you to watch.

In Rep. Tony Gonzales, Republicans have a sexual predator in their midst who relentlessly pursued a married staffer which ultimately resulted in her suicide, and they refuse to do anything about it because they need his vote. That is the 2026 Republican Party.

Trump: Every Democrat voted against my massive tax cuts for the rich and corporations Democrats: *applause*

“Democrats refused to stand” for Trump is definitely going to win the midterms for Republicans. You really got us this time. Voters are really going to care passionately about that in Nov 2026 and ignore all the wreckage caused by the Trump Regime to this country and their lives.

The first US Cabinet happened in 1789.

She fucking nailed it. 😆

SPANBERGER: “His reckless trade policies have forced 🇺🇸 families to pay $1,700+ each in tariff costs. Even though the supreme court struck these tariffs down, the damage has been done. Meanwhile, the president is planning for new tariffs, another massive tax hike on your family.”

The Founders were so concerned about bribery that the Constitution forbids it three separate times (the two emoluments clauses and as the only name impeachable offense besides treason). Exactly for this reason. A US president pocketing funds from foreign govts leads to actions against US interests.

"We are dealing now with an allegation that the president of the US raped and sexually assaulted a child and is now using his DOJ to try to cover that up."

Lucky Mike Johnson won a special trip to the State of the Union! As House speaker, he gets to decide important things—like whether to sit and nod during Trump's speech, or stand and applaud Trump's speech, @petridishes.bsky.social writes:

In the Democratic response to President Trump's State of the Union address, @abigailspanberger.com accuses the president of "enriching himself, his family, his friends." This #CupOfJoe is dedicated to #WeThePeople, and WE SHALL OVERCOME‼️

Constitution101 Congress has right to: raise taxes, spend tax revenue, approve appointments, declare war, make laws Courts have right to: decide on constitutionality & guilt President does not have right to: steal $10+ billion, not enforce laws for friends, use DoJ as weopon against enemies

A woman who has accused both Trump and Epstein of sexually assaulting her when she was a minor decades earlier gave four interviews to the FBI. Summaries of three of those interviews were not released with the Epstein files. www.nytimes.com/2026/02/25/u...
