Unsurprisingly, 60 Minutes ratings are down. What people like Ellison don’t understand is that many of us wouldn’t watch CBS News, including 60 Minutes, if you paid us. Like Bezos, they don’t understand that consuming content is as much a statement of values as anything.

The problems at the Pentagon go far beyond the Iran war. Under Hegseth, the department is purging officials deemed insufficiently loyal, rewarding allies while walling out the press, and forcing the military to absorb the cost of decisions its own commanders warned against.

Trump’s 50% tariffs on Canadian goods just took effect—Maine is going to feel it hard. Its economy is deeply intertwined with Canada: blueberries, lobster, lumber, paper mills. These tariffs raise costs & threaten jobs across the state. Susan Collins won’t stand up to Trump and fight to stop them.
