The Plot to Enslave America
TikTok is removing clips of the leaked 60 Minutes segment.
The Ellison family (which acquired Paramount — CBS’s parent company — and The Free Press, making Bari Weiss Editor-in-Chief of CBS) is set to co-own TikTok through a Trump-backed deal.

No, New York Times, I'm pretty sure the man who got up on stage yesterday and said "we no longer have to apologize for being white" and who said America will always be a "christian nation" has firmly taken a side on bigotry.

The Americans Who Saw All This Coming—but Were Ignored and Maligned
Call them the Cassandras: the people—mostly not white and male—who smelled the fascism all over Trump from jump street. Why were they “alarmists,” and how did “anti-alarmism” become cool?

Watching Mike Lawler do the right thing now re: ACA subsidies after voting to cancel them earlier in the year after toeing the MAGA line at every opportunity is like watching Vincent D'Onofrio cosplay as a human in Men in Black. Great job, buddy! *Very* believable. #NY17

The networks were afraid not to run Trump because they assumed he would use his office to punish them if they didn’t. The irony is that this is what Biden was warning about, a warning they chose not to share with America.
You'll remember that when Biden delivered an address in 2022, networks refused to air it because they said it was "political" www.washingtonpost.com/media/2022/0...
As Biden warned about democracy’s collapse, TV networks aired reruns
Broadcasters NBC, CBS and ABC usually air presidential prime-time addresses live. But they found Biden's Philadelphia speech more "political" than newsworthy.

Sarah McBride rarely centers her identity as a trans woman. Republicans do that for her. So when she steps to the microphone and talks about "21 years of unwavering homesickness," it means something. @mcbride.house.gov www.readtpa.com/p/watch-rep-...

The first openly trans member of Congress made a rare, personal appeal as the GOP wages an all-out assault on trans youth.

It's astonishing that somehow we have whole swathes of the political class that have not managed to connect "everything seems like a scam now" to a useful political platform.

The death cult running America cares about the lives of trans as much as it cares about the lives of the rest of us -- not at all.
I’m at HHS headquarters where RFK Jr. is announcing new restrictions on gender-affirming care for minors by spouting pseudoscience and political misinformation that goes against every major medical association.

c-suite sociopaths really out here caring more about a language model's nonexistent feelings than actual humans who simply want a safe space to connect.
A Discord for gay gamers is in disarray after an exec at Anthropic forced an AI chatbot on the Discord.
When confronted, the exec said he would not submit to mob rule and that AIs have emotions. @evystadium.bsky.social has more.

The president is using this apparent family tragedy, which as far as we know had absolutely nothing to do with him, to convey the message that if his fans brutally murder his critics, they will receive his support and approval.
Q: A number of Republicans have denounced your statement on Rob Reiner. Do you stand by it?
TRUMP: Well, I wasn't a fan of his at all. He was a deranged person as far as Trump is concerned.
