This is priceless. Check out how local news is reporting on Sen Eric Schmidt’s clown-show grilling of Jack Smith. They found Jack Smith at the game… “Top corner, section 109, row 1. In fact, that seat doesn’t even exist in Atlanta.”

On the upside, if the Packers have the 33rd pick in the draft next year it’s almost like having a first round pick.

I think it’s become an obvious problem in recent decades that established politicians think they move ideas to the people rather than the other way around. People get elected and suddenly they are “leaders” rather than “representatives” and it’s time to remind everyone of their rightful place.

This is particularly true about elections. There is nothing that could make Trump accept he lost in 2020. He believes he has 100% approval in the polls. There is nothing that could make him believe the 2026 elections aren’t rigged. The world is only right if it conforms to his delusions

A tanker traveling off the coast of Oman in the Strait of Hormuz has caught on fire after being struck by a projectile. No one immediately claimed responsibility for the attack, though Iran is suspected of attacking at least two other vessels in the area in recent days.

No President in History has ended the same war so many times.

Our Dear Leader has ended the war with Iran at least 38 times by CNN’s count.

No President has ever done this before.

And he is nowhere near finished ending it.

It’s a record worthy of the Nobel committee’s recognition. Thank you for your attention to this matter!"

Putin ‘shown bespoke TV bulletins with no bad news about Russia’
Former Rossiya-1 chief editor says staff stayed behind after broadcasts to record curated version for the ‘Main Viewer’

Antonia Langford is a reporter based in Kyiv who covers Ukraine and Russia.
Published 16 June 2026 11:39am BST

Russian state television records news programmes solely for Vladimir Putin that portray him and Russia in a positive light, a former state TV journalist has said.

The Russian president has, for the past 15 years, been shown curated bulletins that depict “the ideal picture of a beautiful Russia”, Dmitry Skorobutov, a former chief editor for Rossiya-1, has claimed.

Mr Skorobutov said that it was standard practice for reporters at Vesti, the flagship daily news programme, to stay behind after the regular broadcast had been completed to create a separate version tailored for Putin.

“It was like this. Say a regular Vesti bulletin aired at 8pm. After that, the production team stayed behind. We had instructions on which stories to keep, which to add, where to embellish things, where to remove details,” he said

This was carried out “so that Putin would then be shown an ideal picture of a beautiful contemporary Russia today; that he’s such a good president”.

The shorthand used for Putin by state TV staff is the “Main Viewer”, according to Mr Skorobutov, who became the chief editor of Vesti in 2006 at the age of 26

After his dismissal 11 years later, he began criticising state censorship and was granted political asylum in Switzerland in 2020.

Mr Skorobutov said the practice of creating a separate broadcast package for Putin began amid the 2011 Bolotnaya protests, when tens of thousands assembled on Moscow’s Bolotnaya Square to challenge alleged ballot-rigging and to demand fair elections

Waves of rallies continued into 2012 and 2013. They constituted the largest protests in Russia since the fall of the USSR and caused fears among authorities of a revolution

Quintessential Trump: In 2025, Trump axed the program to combat New World Screwworm, stating that they had "saved" $1.5 million a year. In 2026, the Trump announces a $1 billion emergency program to combat the Screwworm outbreak. $1 billion would have funded the old program for 667 years.
