@karaswisher.bsky.social Your interview with John Malone was so good it brought out the true John Malone, profits above law and The Constitution. Today’s CEOs are sounding like the corporate class in 1930s Germany.

Follow the money. Skydance is obviously in on this and has agreed to the ending of @colbertlateshow.bsky.social If there is Late Show there is no deal.

Just another nail in the coffin for our democracy.

If you’re an American should watch the Anthony Bourdain Parts Unknown ep on Iran. A deeply humanizing look at a country full of people just like you and me. I watched it after Anthony died and it moved in ways that are hard to relay. I also immediately ran out to try kabob koobideh and tahdig.

@doug-altitude.bsky.social is on to something.

The Billionaire class are made their billions off the backs of the American Taxpayer. These hypocrites don’t pay taxes and now are claiming the right to rule. What gives the right, they don’t pay taxes?!
