2/2 Pavarotti family's response: “…the values of brotherhood and solidarity which Luciano Pavarotti expressed throughout the course of his artistic career are entirely incompatible with the world view offered by the candidate Donald Trump” — they despise DJT. www.reuters.com/article/us-u...

1/2 Trump claims that Pavarotti “was a very good friend of mine” — not a chance. Luciano would’ve never, ever aligned with such a self-serving narcissist. Luciano’s family ‘ceased and desisted’ DJT for using his performance of “Nessun Dorma” at his rallies in 2016. www.reuters.com/article/us-u...

Before a “former prosecutor” asks targeted questions, he/she researches all details pertaining to it, in order to determine an informed, iron-clad answer. Not so with sloppy-Schmitt, who made blatantly false accusations based upon shoddily contrived non-evidence — fucking incompetent “dirt bag.”

A shoddily contrived ‘gotch’ya’ moment blew-up in the face of Schmitt, in spectacular fashion. Telling, that his aides flashed the ‘evidence’ placard, only to swiftly pull it down — major fuck-up of historically epic proportions. GOP’s credibility has capitulated from the gutter to All-Time-Lows.

“People are making more money than they've ever made before” By people, he means Oil companies/execs are making record profits, gouging consumers while doing so. Meanwhile, DJT’s made $15.5 Million via defense stocks during his Iran “excursion” (incursion) — no incentive to end this anytime soon.

Biden brought Inflation down to 2.9% which spiked due to global supply constraints fueled by Pandemic, Ukraine Invasion — none of which were caused by him. vs ⬆️ Inflation, ⬆️ unemployment, ⬇️ manufacturing, caused solely by the reckless actions of one individual.

In 2024, Kennedy Center earned $306.0 Million in revenue, against $226.2 Million in total expenses, with a net income of $40.65 Million — cash positive. Congress allocated $257 Million for structural repairs & renovations — already subsidized. He’s a fucking liar, but we all know that.

Since the petty buffoon can’t legally foist his name onto it, he wants to destroy it. After running it into bankruptcy, he now claims the building is falling apart (not true) to justify “rebuilding” Kennedy’s memorial, brandishing his name. www.youtube.com/shorts/gI-BS...

Naive, self-dealing scumbag, posturing as a ‘broker of peace.’ Putin invaded, killed civilians from the outset — no “win-win” here. As if Putin would adhere to any “framework” where this doesn’t happen again. What fucking happened when Hitler was given Sudetenland, Czechoslovakia in 1939?

The $5,000 Trump ‘dividend’ would merely amount to a refund of the $5,000+ that U.S. consumers were forced to pay in tariff surcharges during the course of 3 years — got it. Notably, MAGA cries socialism, only when it doesn't involve them. “There’s a sucker born every minute.” - P. T. Barnum

FOX fired her after she leaked confidential internal messages to DJT. FOX execs instructed staff not to amplify DJT’s latest debunked 2020 election conspiracy theories. She forwarded those memos to the White House, violating her employment agreement. A Trump informant first, journalist second.

SK was already paying $800M+/year for military presence under Obama, & was participating in cost-sharing deals since 1991. $3B/year is pure fiction — it was less than $1B w/DJT. Biden didn’t rescind — he negotiated 2 increases: 13.9% hike in 2021, 8.3% hike in 2024. www.cnn.com/2026/08/17/p...

That they’re willing to humiliate themselves to this extent, by fervently parroting the false narrative of a pathological liar, is far & beyond mere sycophancy — it’s self-debasing servitude that will forever taint their character & quash their credibility.

Never stated that Carr directly referred to FD - wrong Resorted to ad hominem slurs - yes, you have Argument is valid. Trump directed Carr to go after those critical of him. This was the entire point of bringing up FD —seems to have gone completely over your head. Petty victory laps -priceless.

Dan Cataneo @dcataneo.bsky.social · 02/07/2026
You’ve corrected nothing here. The FD reference was made in scope of Carr’s efforts to yank The View for being critical of DJT — runs against FD’s framework, as does insistence of positive coverage for Iran. He’s only enforcing ‘equal-time’ because he can’t enforce FD. Again, you miss the point.
110
Dan Cataneo @dcataneo.bsky.social · 02/07/2026
Nope, never stated that Carr directly referred to FD. If FD were still in-force, he’d sooner be enforcing equally balanced, coverage of both-sides as dictated by his boss, hence his being “39 years out of touch.” Carr’s going after The View for being critical of DJT, period.
110
Dan Cataneo @dcataneo.bsky.social · 02/07/2026
Calling someone a “moron” during a debate is indeed an ad hominem slur, when used to dismiss the OP’s viewpoint. My reference to FD was made in scope of Carr’s overall puruit to revoke licenses of networks who are critical of DJT. Demanding positive coverage of The Iran war is but one example.

Dan Cataneo @dcataneo.bsky.social · 02/07/2026

“He’s jaw-boning, of course.” — precisely, in every indirect way that he can suppress 1st Amendment. Ad hominem slurs? real classy.
110
Dan Cataneo @dcataneo.bsky.social · 02/07/2026
The point from the outset — Carr goes after any network critical of DJT in anyway that can be ENFORCED. Carr demanded positive media coverage of Iran — direct reference to the defunct FD.

Dan Cataneo @dcataneo.bsky.social · 02/07/2026
Why would he have to? His actions affirm it.

Dan Cataneo @dcataneo.bsky.social · 02/07/2026
While ‘equal time’ deals exclusively with political candidates, FD dealt with coverage & viewpoints, requiring stations to broadcast both sides of a controversial topic —DJT wants this. Carr demanded positive media coverage of Iran, ffs. If you don’t perceive his motivation here, you miss the point.

Dan Cataneo @dcataneo.bsky.social · 01/07/2026
Elizabeth’s dismissing Carr’s allegiance & motivation here: “97% of the people are against me — they’ll take a great story, and make it bad… see, I think that’s really illegal, personally.” - right from the boss’ mouth. www.youtube.com/watch?v=Scoy...

Dan Cataneo @dcataneo.bsky.social · 01/07/2026
Carr’s overriding agenda is to scrutinize networks critical of Trump. He publicly threatened to impose regulatory actions & revoke broadcast licenses, whether by enforcing ‘equal time’ or ‘negative coverage without contrasting views’ — a left-over corollary of FD. www.nytimes.com/2025/09/24/t...

Oh, but he is. Carr craftily conflates ‘equitable & balanced’ with ‘equal time,’ threatening to revoke licenses of any/all networks who don’t spin positive news for Trump. Jaw-boning is putting it mildly — DJT complains that comedians & news are negative Trump 90% & told Carr to change that.

Dan Cataneo @dcataneo.bsky.social · 01/07/2026
While taking marching orders from DJT, who complains that comedians & news are negative Trump 90% of the time, Carr craftily conflates ‘equitable & balanced’ with ‘equal time,’ threatening to revoke broadcasting licenses of any/all networks who don’t spin positive news for Trump - the point.

The decision has to do with whether or not a President can override The Constitution with an EO. This is what Alito, Thomas, & Gorsuch were pushing for. If this is what they truly want, then the next President can override the 2nd Amendment with an EO & abolish all firearms that aren’t muskets.

For a narcissist who prefers stolen valor over actually earning it, why wouldn’t he simply opt for preordained stellar Bills of Health, bypassing exams & the time-consuming redundancy of testing procedures altogether? The answer: these recurring tests are deemed mandatory, by MDs & specialists.
