Warner on CBS: I was embarrassed that the president went before our country and networks like yours carried this as news as opposed to a rehash of falsehoods. It is incumbent upon you and any responsible journalist to pushback on this.

Perhaps this already exists but how about a YouTube channel that takes a fact-based look at political ads offering details behind the attacks, offering opponents a chance to rebut and correct clear errors?

@zillablitz.bsky.social How about the best new games YOU CAN BUY RIGHT NOW!

@petebuttigieg.bsky.social please focus on truth, vowing to make policy conform to reality rather than ideology. Make being open minded a virtue again.

@zillablitz.bsky.social Your statement is precisely what we need. My son and his family live near Diamond Lake and it’s heartbreaking to watch the news. My granddaughters in Kindergarten and third grade speak of classmates who can’t go to school! Your statement was on point and necessary!

Why does everyone keep calling it “The Epstein Ballroom?” Please stop repeating “The Epstein Ballroom” because it is not called “The Epstein Ballroom!” Don’t tell the news that it’s called “The Epstein Ballroom” and please don’t repost this!!!!!

This is a friendly reminder that library cards are free, and your local public library will never make you pay extra so you don't have to watch ads.

During an election season we are exposed to thousands of political commercials. Blah blah. Now, with petty things like cancer research and food for the poor at risk: nothing. TV reaches the low information folks. Spend some money NOW!

Those who want America to fail have had a swell month.

ATTENTION! I am currently pretending to understand “Severance.” That is all.

Shoukd I be surprised that the President who is trying to close the agency that protects consumers is the same man whose companies have been found fraudulent?

An issue at the core many modern disputes is the Luddite problem. Oligarchs look at workers as legacy costs draining their wealth through tax dollars or social goals like equality. Workers fear being called unneeded and replaced by artificial intelligence or new priorities. All see a dark future.

Something’s happening here. What it is ain’t exactly clear.

I’ve always assumed diversity goals are pursued and respected when choosing among candidates who have roughly the same “merit.” I sincerely doubt that many bosses are aware, smart and discerning enough to select the “meritorious” candidate in many cases. Human nature is too full of biases.

Here is Caroline Kennedy absolutely coming for RFK Jr, a "predator" whose behavior, she says, would leave both her father and his "disgusted." www.youtube.com/watch?v=YLLx...

When Tom Brady and others say “I hate to see the refs control the game” or “let the players play” they are really saying “let them cheat.”

I fear my last message has been scattered. I think I need advice.

…Do we ever hear someone say,”we had equal qualifications and I accept the decision to give it to the other person.” No. We hear crocodile tears about unfairness, an unfairness tacitly experienced by millions of minorities over the ages. Well, it’s not so tacit now and “merit” is how the push back.

… It allows them to dismiss the reality that generations of racism have given them a head start in society’s competition. It furthers the very human nature that individuals believe, when dealing with roughly equal qualifications, they and those like them are the ones possessing greater “merit.”…

Using “merit” as a fig leaf to disguise the impetus for attacks on diversity, equity and inclusion tells me that politicians have become more skilled at hiding racism that was far more blatant in prior generations. …

Have you noticed how most Tik Tok stories fail to specify exactly what threats it presents. Even rarer are the assessments of how real those threats might be.

I wonder: if Trump had used bitcoin to pay off Cohen, would he have been convicted? The funny, imaginary money is the choice of criminals.

Our society has grown to a point where we name storms and fires to keep them sorted. What’s next? Economic events? Plagues?
