Drunkard rapist Pete Hegseth is nothing more than a weak pathetic emasculated performative Nazi war criminal who belongs in prison, not at the Pentagon.

Everything the pro-Trump billionaire Ellison family will now own: Paramount+ CBS CNN Showtime HBO Warner Bros TNT TBS MTV DC Studios Nickelodeon Comedy Central And more... With this comes the power to decide which stories get told, but more importantly, which stories DON'T get told. Shameful.

Does anyone think Trump could remain conscious at a meeting to save his job? No. He can't do it. And after the way Joe Biden was treated it's all just a big scam. All of it.

CNN’s Harry Enten: “In a word, ‘yikes’: Trump's moderate GOP support is collapsing. He led them by 69 points vs Harris in 2024. His net approval now is +10 pt. A 59 pt shift. He was more trusted vs Harris on the economy by 80 pt. Net approval now? +3 pt. A 77 pt shift! On inflation, he's at -17 pt!”

In response to a loaded question from Fox News meant to tee up an attack on Mamdani, Buttigieg instead says "there's so much that we do in fact agree on ... people can tell that the system we have is not just showing its age, it's letting us down"
