Whoa! This part makes the story worse. Trump didn’t just appear in taxpayer-funded ads promoting himself and his policies. He personally helped orchestrate them, including helping choose the imagery and video. OUR TAX DOLLARS. HIS PROPAGANDA.

As @billkristolbulwark.bsky.social likes to say, I’m alarmed. At the UN this week, Trump dismissed concerns over AI safety as a “hoax.” And that’s the position of his administration. Needless to say, it isn’t a hoax - and we’ve got two-plus more years of this (at least) while AI threats grow.

Five corporations control 90% of the US media. Airlines have merged from 12 major carriers in 1980 to 4 today. A handful of companies control the pharmaceutical industry. Four giants control 80% of meat processing. The evidence of corporate concentration is everywhere.

LMFAO -- Trump is holding an event at the White House right now but there's no audio because the press pool isn't there. The Newsmax host notes that this is an example of Trump's attacks on the press "backfiring just a little bit"

Lets just make sure we correct all the wrongs before we start prosecuting and leave them helpless in enacting more crap. It is going to be some feat with SCOTUS. Uphill battle all the way but the patriots who came before us did it 250 years ago and we can too.

My gosh. Fetterman pretended to be sick to avoid meeting three paralyzed veterans from rural PA…and then went to do a Fox interview on Israel. He agreed to meet a lawmaker who drove from PA to talk about homeless and working people…and then bailed & met pro-Israel Bruce Pearl.
One morning in June, three paralyzed military veterans in wheelchairs from rural Pennsylvania arrived at the office of Sen. John Fetterman for a long-awaited meeting to discuss legislation that would improve their care.
Fetterman's staff greeted them with bad news: The Pennsylvania Democrat had to cancel. He'd told his staff he may have eaten something bad and wasn't feeling well, according to people familiar with the matter.
Less than an hour after his staffers met with the veterans in his place, Fetterman walked into his office, showing no signs of illness. He had an appointment he didn't want to miss, he told staff: an interview on Fox News to discuss Israel and the war in Iran."He was available. He just chose not to meet with us," Williams said.
Even when Fetterman does agree to meetings, he often cancels, according to former staffers.
Also last April, Fetterman agreed to take a meeting with another state lawmaker, Liz Hanbidge, who drove down from Pennsylvania to introduce herself, and to discuss programs that help the homeless and working poor in her county. But when Hanbidge arrived, according to staffers who were present, Fetterman claimed he hadn't agreed to the meeting. The aides spent more than an hour pleading with him to talk to her; staffers eventually met with Hanbidge in his place.
Fetterman did take another meeting that day-with Bruce Pearl, the former college basketball coach and Israel advocate. The pair discussed legislation that would affect college sports, and Pearl thanked Fetterman for his stance on Israel, Pearl said in an interview.

This is a concern that I’ve spoken about several times as well, and Twitter randos always told me I was “overreacting” or “fear-mongering” I said this at the time, but it’s nice to have official confirmation. And I very much worry about US leadership in that scenario today.
