The Trump regime's new AI assistant confirmed Donald is a convicted felon, Biden won the 2020 election, and Trump is in the Epstein files before it stopped answering political questions.

Jack Smith says he stands by his decision to bring charges against Trump in the classified documents case. "If asked whether to prosecute a former President based on the same facts today, I would do so regardless of whether that President was a Republican or a Democrat."

Network solidarity against Trump's attack on the 1st Amendment lasted less than one week. Pathetic. On the bright side for CNN, moving forward Bari Weiss can make changes to ensure there is no more friction with the White House. Support independent media. demdock.com/4w6emld

A new theater — especially one as comfortable and intimate as Northlight’s long-awaited Evanston homecoming — is cause for celebration and Ben Hecht and Charles MacArthur’s 1928 satire of mercurial Chicago journalists in an era when the city was lousy with newsprint certainly fits.

"Sometimes, even if I stand in the middle of the room, no one acknowledges me"
This image is a cartoon depicting the "elephant in the room" metaphor.

An elephant, labeled COVID-19, lies on a couch as if it’s a therapy patient, saying:
"Sometimes, even if I stand in the middle of the room, no one acknowledges me."

A person, possibly a therapist, sits nearby taking notes.

The message highlights how, despite COVID-19 still being a major issue, society often ignores or downplays its presence—just like ignoring an obvious elephant in the room.

No network should broadcast a single Trump or Vance event, speech or press conference live until his ban targeting specific media companies for their coverage is lifted. At some point you have to stop limiting your response to lawsuits and go on offense to defend the First Amend.
