The Ellisons’ new Paramount/Warner Bros mega-media monopoly would never pass muster if America still had antitrust enforcers.
So who can stop this? State attorneys general. Here's how. ⬇️

Fellow Americans, I know everything is terrible. But among the terrible things, don’t miss the fact that we are the reason that Cuba is in a full on humanitarian crisis. we are cutting off energy, food, medicine. The regime is not falling, as the administration likes to say, it’s being pushed.

Connect the dots here.
How on earth is this “good for America”?
Today we face rapidly escalating gasoline prices.
Tomorrow?
Iranian terrorist cells will be attacking us for decades to come.
What’s the benefit for us?
Six Americans are coming home in coffins.
Good for America? Go fuck yourself, asshole.
President Trump remarks on plans for Cuba at "Shield of the Americas" summit in Florida: "Cuba's in its last moments of life as it was. It'll have a great new life…That'll be an easy one."
He added: "I'm not learning your damn language. I don't have time."

I agree with Rick Wilson 💯….
I have always believed that you can tell a lot about a man by how he treats women. Even Hegseth’s mom knew he’s had a serious problem in that department. It’s no surprise then that he is very comfortable being a nasty bully. Trump loves that type.
Wow. Hegseth sounds like a serial killer. He's been given a taste of power and now sounds like a genocidal psychopath like mass murderers Stalin, Pol Pot of the Khmer Rouge Cambodian "Killing Fields", Hitler and Rwanda.
His blood lust is unhinged. He must be stopped.

Since the Dow is at 47,500 are we allowed to talk about Epstein now?
There have been some very bad developments today.
Oh.
“We have agreed” — how nice of them! Surely they’re doing this work pro bono right?
The Department of Justice has sued 30 states and DC for access to their unreacted sensitive voter data. My law firm is fighting them in all 30 cases.
We are dedicating so many resources because these are the most important legal fights and the future of free and fair elections is at stake.
Who could possibly have predicted that a company whose slogan is "cheat on everything" would cheat?

DHS nominee Markwayne Mullin is one of the most active stock-traders in the Senate — and violated the STOCK Act against insider trading as recently as last August.
He currently holds stock in L3Harris, which has millions in contracts with ICE and FEMA.
The grift continues.
This is very discouraging.
We need to clean house and what they have done is taking us in the wrong direction. 😡
Obama: "We are living in a time where it can be hard to hope. Each day we wake up to some new assault on our democratic institutions. Another setback to the idea of the rule of law ... but this man - Rev. Jesse Jackson - inspires us to take a harder path ... bc if we don't step up, nobody else will"
Was AI used for the targeting that likely resulted in the bombing of the girls school?
We must have answers to that question and there is ZERO reason for delay because the Pentagon damn well already knows the answer.
Support for Abolishing ICE Hits Record High in New Poll | Truthout truthout.org/articles/sup...
Inspectors General must be independent & nonpartisan. Reports say DOL IG Anthony D’Esposito plans to run for Congress. I asked if he’s running or doing campaign activity while serving as IG. He refused to answer. That is concerning given reports he put his mistress and fiancee’s daughter on payroll.
Wait. They are releasing Epstein files to distract Americans from the war in Iran now?
On par with “we have to destroy the village in order to save it”.
Most anti-LGBTQ bills
Strictest abortion ban
medical marijuana banned
Most medical bankruptcies
Books banned
High Gun violence
High poverty
Low per pupil spending
Immigrants living in fear
Most disenfranchised Black folks
“Freest” for who, @MarshaBlackburn?
The reason we have “stupid rules of engagement” is to make sure we don’t bomb elementary schools.
I’ve been asked if I would support Sen. Mullin as Noem’s replacement.
The answer is a resounding NO. The rot in DHS is deep, much deeper than any individual.
It’s a question of policy not personnel. The Senate should not consider any DHS Secretary nominee until DHS and ICE are reined in.
Yes @governorwalz.mn.gov, yes!
The AP has just reported that DHS Secretary Noem will be replaced with Oklahoma Senator Mullin.
So we progressed from
stupid & feckless with extremely stupid.
Folks, things are going to get worse. Much worse.
