The idiot who didn’t know what happened at Pearl Harbor (according to Trump’s former chief-of-staff John F. Kelly, recounting a trip to the memorial site in Hawaii) wants to correct “historical inaccuracies”? What a joke this country has become!

Remember back in 2020 when we found out about Trump's secret bank account in China, and that China's biggest state-controlled bank had rented out three floors in Trump Tower? I sure do. Interesting timing given his lies about China interfering in the 2020 election. www.nytimes.com/2020/10/20/u...

The President’s cabinet member oversees a federal law enforcement agency. He threatens literal bloodshed if the opposition party refuses to suspend using their first amendment speech rights. He’s threatening state violence in response to opposition free speech.

This paragraph … www.nytimes.com/2026/07/15/u...
Mr. Hegseth’s focus on testosterone levels at a moment when U.S. forces are ramping up attacks in Iran is unorthodox. Defense secretaries typically focus on larger strategic questions, involving alliances, war and weapons production.

Compare this to Obama, who demanded detailed briefings and a risk assessment / COA analysis with every decision he made. You simply can’t distill complex foreign policy issues into a one pager and expect good outcomes.

This is actually a perfect encapsulation of Trump’s presidency. The second photo is complete bullshit. It’s fake. It’s an accomplishment that exists only in Trump’s own mind. And it’s also lying about Biden.

Full statement of Scott Pelley after he's fired from CBS 60 Minutes, detailing the sort of corruption of journalism Bari Weiss has brought to CBS News:
New statement from Scott Pelley:
 
There has never been anything in America like 60 Minutes.
 
The Sunday tradition is the most successful program of any kind in history. For more than a decade, its innovative growth on every major online platform has extended its reach to countless millions around the world. This spring, at the end of our 58thseason, 60 Minutes grew rapidly with an unheard-of 9% jump in viewers on CBS. 
 
“60” has been the number-one program in America for decades because our beloved audience finds integrity, quality, and humanity in our stories. When stewardship of the program passed to my colleagues and me, our responsibility was to expand energetically into a new age of media technology while preserving the values our audience expects. Now, the new owner of our network is casting this legend aside, apparently to curry a moment of favor with the Trump administration.
 
The waste is heartbreaking.
 
Last month, 60 Minutes lost its DNA when our entire senior leadership and two of our best on-air correspondents were cruelly fired without cause. Good people were silenced because they stood up for our audience. They stood for fairness against the forces of political bias; they stood for professionalism against chaos.For my part, new management has instructed me to inject falsehoods and bias into a politically sensitive story. I’ve been told to include assertions that are unverified. To date, in every case, I have managed to ignore these instructions or refuse them. Recently, politicians have been invited to choose correspondents for interviews on the broadcast. Giving politicians control over 60 Minutes interviews is not how this is done. Finally, incompetence and unprofessionalism in the new management have wreaked havoc. In a case involving one of my stories, the entire program came within 19 minutes of not getting on the air at all. 
 
At 60 Minutes, we have fought harder than anyone knows to save the program that became an American icon. We owed that to our millions of viewers. I am deeply moved by the thousands of wishes we have received to “keep up the good fight.” Most of the men and women of CBS News are still in that fight. But now the collapse of values at the top has become untenable. The leadership of 60 Minutes is no longer recognizable. The principles I hold dear are gone, and so I must leave as well.
 
I depart after 37 years at CBS with one emotion—a heart brimming with gratitude for the men and women of CBS News who encouraged and enriched my work, very often at the risk of their own lives. I pray for a day when those people and their ideals are honored again—a day when sanity, competence, and courage return.

It's a little more complicated/dumb than this. 1) The "Talarico is vegan" lines comes from a 2022 event with the Texas Humane Legislation Network, where he said his (state rep) campaign would only buy vegan food. Then he got a huevos con papas (not vegan!) taco so they rolled that together.

Presidential assassination attempts that didn’t get close happened in the past too, but you heard about them less because previous presidents all thought strength was shrugging “you can’t phase me, nothing can,” while this president thinks strength is whining “I’m such a victim, soothe my feelings.”

The smallest, most soulless creature to ever be over-stuffed into a human form has thoughts about quality television. With a world and nation in disarray and requiring remedy, the President of the United States feels the need to opine on this passionately. Our republic is so debased.
