Once again: CLF got hyped on @cnbc.com by pundits and analysts who "know," and the stock has slid ever since. Please don't take your investing advice from TV. These folks get paid to talk, and what they say on air isn't always what they do with their own money. Do your own homework.

Gas is already too expensive, and the Trump administration's answer is to weaken fuel economy standards so new cars burn MORE of it. This is their COVID bleach moment: a "fix" that makes the problem worse. Families pay the price at the pump. @sierraclub.org @ucsusa.org @nrdc.org @edf.org

Sept. 5: @umichfootball squeaks past my @wmufootball 13-12 at the buzzer. Sept. 26: @hawkeyefootball returns the favor, 20-19 at the buzzer. Same one-point heartbreak, different sideline. Karma doesn't wait for Halloween. 👻 #GoBroncos

Hey @cnbc.com — why is Kyle Bass getting airtime to repeat White House talking points on the Iran war and dress them up as market analysis? Brent just closed above $103. Your viewers deserve analysts, not cheerleaders. Did he disclose his positions? Push back or label it opinion.

Hearing the new "both parties are equivalent" pitch? Check the record: stronger GDP growth and job gains under Democratic presidents, going back generations. False equivalence is how bad policy gets a pass. Vote blue on Nov 3. @[candidate] @[local Dem party]

NBC's new poll: Democrats lead the generic ballot 50–45, yet the party is still viewed more negatively than Trump and the GOP. That's a leadership problem. Hakeem Jeffries and Chuck Schumer have got to go. We need new Democratic leadership, and we need it soon. @thedemocrats.org @nbcnews.com

NBC News has Trump at 41% approval, a second-term low in their own poll but ~3 pts above the averages (~38%). Not a bad poll: NBC surveys registered voters rather than all adults, and 3 pts is inside its ±3.1 margin of error. @nbcnews.com @gelliottmorris.com @politicalwire.com

Trump has done worse to dozens or hundreds of children via Epstein/Maxwell/Trump global child-sex trafficking pedophile ring. Not to mention his lawless extra-judicial killings in the Caribbean; ICE murders; war crimes like bombing girl’s schools in Iran. He killed puppies for fun, says Sasha Riley.

Yesterday the House voted 262–159 to give the president new power to impose tariffs up to 100% on countries buying Russian energy. 203 Republicans said yes; most Democrats said no. Tariffs are a tax on our grocery bills. Put a check back on that power. Vote blue in November.

The FBS Oversight Committee admits replay protocol was broken in WMU–Michigan and that Western should've won. Its fix? None. "No authority." When a Big Ten crew skips the rules, a Big Ten team wins, and it still counts? That's crooked, and dangerous. @wmu @themac @ncaa @bigten

60 Minutes just had its smallest season premiere since at least 2000: about 7.9M viewers, down 21% from last year. Scott Pelley, Anderson Cooper, Sharyn Alfonsi, Cecilia Vega, all gone. Bari Weiss took the most trusted brand in TV news and hollowed it out in under a year.

Consumer sentiment just fell to 47.8, the 2nd-lowest reading since the survey began in 1952. The all-time low was this May. Gas prices up, trade fights back, inflation expectations at 4.6%. The party running Washington owns this economy. Change it in November: vote blue.

For years the GOP raged over Paul Pelosi's stock trades. Hawley even named a bill after her. Trump's accounts: 21,000+ trades in 2025, 3,600+ in Q1 2026, incl. an Nvidia buy a week before chip sales to China got approved. GOP outrage now? Crickets. @citizensforethics.org @apnews.com

Ohio State led 23-3 in the third and lost 24-23. Twenty-one unanswered in the fourth. Outgained Texas 372-336, 5.9 yards a play to 4.3, and still lost. Four field goal tries instead of touchdowns is the whole game. Week 2, road, non-conference. Not a season-ender. @texaslonghorns.bsky.social

"At the Dallas convention Trump said Democrats 'want to take money for reparations for crimes that happened hundreds of years ago.' Two weeks earlier he said he deserved reparations from the IRS. Zero outlets put those two side by side. @cnn @abcnews @nbcnews @washingtonpost — worth a follow-up?"

In 1963's Twilight Zone "He's Alive," a failed demagogue gets coached by Hitler's ghost: pick a scapegoat, stoke fear, make a martyr. Serling warned that spirit lives wherever hate gets a microphone. Sixty years later, Trump said immigrants were "poisoning the blood" of the country. #TwilightZone

Workers' share of U.S. economic output just hit 52.8% — the lowest since the government started counting in 1947. Corporate profit margins? Record highs. The pie is bigger than ever. The slice for the people baking it is the smallest ever.

An Iranian woman left Islam for Christianity. In Iran, that’s a death sentence. She fled to America for refuge. We’re deporting her to the Central African Republic — a country the State Dept says “do not travel to for any reason.” The GOP isn’t defending Christianity. It’s killing it.
