Some advice here - NEVER TRUST TRUMP. Not for a second. Never ever.
Trump has attacked all institutions of truth and expertise - including America’s universities. Once the best in the world, American universities are slipping behind China who have invested heavily in research. MAGA is making America weaker, dumber and a global joke.

America is at a cross road. If Renee Nicole Good’s cold blooded unprovoked murder goes unpunished, America is officially lawless. The murderer Jonathan Ross is the symbol of Trump’s America - violent, unhinged, without empathy or compassion, and without consequences. American justice is dead.

The Trump administration’s attempts to blame “left wing ideology” and the victim herself for being murdered by a psychopathic ICE agent is taking manipulative gaslighting to a new and outrageous level. I know MAGA drinks this koolaid but surely the rest of America can see through this insanity?

Trump is a liar. That should be the headline on every newspaper across the globe every day of his presidency. But I don’t think I’ve ever seen that headline even once. Even when Trump lies multiple times a day. It’s beyond infuriating. Here’s him lying about the ICE shooting.

I’ve watched the ICE shooting of innocent unarmed woman - Renee Nicole Good - numerous times. She is clearly trying to flee when an ICE agent is aggressively trying to open her door. As she gets away, another ICE agent shoots her - not in self defence but to stop her 😳

Crockett: "Everyone wants to talk about how Maduro was illegitimate. As we sit here on January 6, I do want to be clear: somebody else was trying to be a Maduro of the United States. Somebody else wanted to do the exact same thing. The difference is Maduro was successful."

I am extremely confused as to why the UK government and police are saying Grok’s mass-scale CSAM generation is an issue for Ofcom.
This isn’t about X failing to moderate CSAM, which is an Online Safety Act issue. It is about the company and its technology being actively involved in its generation.

Sussan Ley will claim when she referred to Neo Nazis as “hard left” instead of hard right, it was a slip of the tongue. But it’s more than that. The Liberals don’t want to talk about the RIGHT WING Neo Nazis who are openly antisemite and spread hatred towards immigrants. We need to talk about them.

Has Trump mentioned the word DEMOCRACY once since invading Venezuela? He is hellbent on destroying American democracy so not surprising he has no interest in Venezuela’s self determination.

If we ever do have a royal commission into Bondi, its terms of reference should include an examination of the media’s highly political handling of the tragedy. That’s where we might also learn who really dials up hate and racism in this country.

Words do matter. Trump should apologise for his despicable lies about Melissa Hoffman. But we all know full well he won’t, and the media won’t put any pressure on him to do so. Trump is entirely unaccountable.

Trump already explained his rationale for invading Venezuela long ago.
The key is to remember that Trump ALWAYS projects his mode of thinking and his own lack of morals onto others. He therefore presumed Obama would behave exactly like Trump would behave, and is behaving now.

Is there anything Trump could do or say to receive negative press coverage? He's now accusing Tim Walz of having Melissa Hortman assassinated - a hugely offensive and defamatory allegation. Yet, this constant unhinged, unethical, illegitimate behaviour just goes completely unremarked in the media.

Trump is starting a war with Venezuela to sidetrack the news cycle from the Epstein files. It’s unfathomable that the people around Trump aren’t able to manage this dangerous, mentally unfit, psychopathic president. All his supporters have blood on their hands.

Bari Weiss’ rebrand of CBS News as “Fox News but way less successful!” is coming along apace.
Incredible. CBS Evening News announces five new “simple values” — instead of their “38-page handbook” — as they roll out Tony Dokoupil is lead anchor.
One of those values is simply: “We love America and make no apologies for saying so.”

When news reporters claim to care more about uninformed opinion than they do with expertise and facts, you know something is very, very wrong. CBS is on a slippery slope towards being yet another political weapon of the hard right, just like Fox News.
CBS announces they're turning into a Fox News clone, explaining to people
that there will be no more academic and vetted journalism, instead more of gut feeling and echo chamber twitter reporting. They are desperate because the boomers are not leaving fox news and they lack credibility for everyone

This is Bari Weiss’s MAGA propaganda. When Weiss chose to kill an investigative journalist piece which legitimately and factually critiqued the Trump administration - exactly the watchdog journalism America needs - she showed CBS can no longer be trusted to speak truth to power. Shame!

Anyone who says the Trump movement is not a white supremacist movement is not paying attention.
DHS now says it's aiming for 100 million deportations. In an amazing coincidence, there are 104 million Black and Hispanic people living in the U.S. right now.
