Make sure everyone sees this then. The FCC apparently changed its “equal time” rule on talk shows to make it hard for Colbert or The View to air interviews with candidates like Talarico. Video link in comments.

Trump officials have blocked Minnesota law enforcement from accessing materials to investigate the death of Alex Pretti.

They also refused to cooperate with Minnesota officials to investigate Renee Good’s death.

What don’t they want the public to know?

This is the interview Donald Trump didn’t want you to see.

His FCC refused to air my interview with Stephen Colbert.

Trump is worried we’re about to flip Texas.

US had almost *no* job growth in 2025.

Hiring numbers were revised down by over a million jobs.

Largest annual revision in over 20 years.

www.nbcnews.com/business/eco...
U.S. added 130,000 jobs in January, but labor market growth stalled in 2025
The Bureau of Labor Statistics found that U.S. employers added 181,000 jobs last year, far fewer than the 1.46 million jobs that were added in 2024.

Posting this so California voters are all well aware of the history behind billionaire Tom Steyer. He made millions investing in immigration detention centers! He is not the progressive champion some may think he is so voters beware!

Keep a VERY close watch on Zorro Ranch. Until warrants are in hand and every inch is searched, NOTHING leaves…no trucks, no trailers, no “deliveries.” Drones can document digging/excavation. There are legal ways to secure evidence and force accountability.
