I just don’t see how we can pretend even for a moment that anything involving our federal government is remotely normal when the president is covering up his involvement in a child sex trafficking ring. Like, what are we doing here

Disregard for others is typical for Donald Trump. In 2008, he told Howard Stern about a guest who fell from a stage during a ball at Mar-a-Lago. He said the 80-yr-old bleeding man was "disgusting." He also shared he didn't bother checking in on the guest to see if he was okay.

One thing we've learned in the last 12 hours: The Sinclair-Nexstar ban on Kimmel, in terms of his reach, means nothing in an era when late-night shows have an afterlife or simultaneous life on streaming. Kimmel's average audience is 1.6M. On YouTube, last night's monologue is already at 8.4M views.

If you are not a California resident, but you want to help protect our democracy, you can donate to Yes on Prop 50 here:
Yes on 50 – The Election Rigging Response Act
Trump and Texas Republicans are moving to rig the 2026 election — and other GOP states are joining in. If Californians don’t act now, they could seize Congress no matter how we vote.

many countries are still assessing impact of new H1B visa fee, initial reactions varied. India, which is most affected, expressed diplomatic concern, while tech competitors like Canada may benefit from displaced talent. Some countries have taken a more cautious approach, waiting to see full effect.

Just to be clear: Brian Kilmeade *did not* endorse euthanizing homeless people. He advocated MURDERING over 700,000 of them.
And on a network that has been *beside itself* over the murder of just one man this week.

Before knowing all the facts, voices on the right are now exploiting the tragic death of Charlie Kirk & calling for all-out war on the left. This is sad, but not surprising, at a time when we should all be denouncing political violence. They were not so upset when Minn. Democrats were assassinated.
