This week Jesse Watters flippantly made two racist statements about Black and Mexican-Americans on welfare in Arkansas. Last week he said racism didn't exist in the United States. Wealthy white men are experts on racism. Okay then.

One marginal advantage of Trump's idiotic rebranding of AI as "super intelligence" is that it helps to expose which media outlets are fully in the tank for him. There's no official geographical naming excuse this time.

Mehdi Hasan is attempting to salvage Albanese's reputation in the wake of her anti-Ukrainian remarks, ostensibly scrutinising her while providing her with a platform. Seeing the two leading proponents of 'anti-Zionism' spread russian propaganda should make supporters of Arab nationalism reconsider.

Of course @brandyzadrozny.bsky.social has the most interesting review of the MAHA Summit. She asks who organized the event, who attended, and where the money goes. Kennedy likes to keep his grift in the family. Zadrozny notes: "Finn was the summit’s first speaker." www.ms.now/news/maha-su...
If the divergent, often competing pet interests of the activists within MAHA made the movement hard to define, the structure behind the business of MAHA is murkier still. The summit was presented by MAHA Center, a nonprofit helmed by Tony Lyons, publisher of Kennedy’s books and other contrarian works. Lyons also runs MAHA Action, a separate nonprofit, and MAHA PAC, the rebranded super PAC that bankrolled Kennedy’s presidential bid and is now backing Republican candidates in the midterms. Tickets to the summit went to “MAHA members” who enrolled at the $6,000-a-year tier — a membership advertised and presented by Lyons’ MAHA Action but whose agreement is with MAHA Holdings, a separate entity with no public-facing website, about which little is known beyond its CEO, former tech entrepreneur Alex Hardy, and one board member: Kennedy’s 29-year-old son, Finn.
