If Nick Fuentes got "radicalized on race" by Mark Levin, imagine where the new generation will be, listening to the likes of Tucker Carlson & Nick Fuentes.

Tucker Carlson has a lengthy history pulling people from the fringes into the MAGA mainstream.

Now he's trying to do that with white nationalist Nick Fuentes.

Donald Trump has spent years calling Comcast chief Brian Roberts a "lowlife" & insulting the company as "Concast."

And what does Roberts do in return? Write Trump a ballroom check.

Apple Mail continues to be the worst email app for performing the basic task of ... searching one's inbox.

When I search for nearly any term, it just does this endlessly and never returns any results.

Instead of MAGA Media personalities telling their followers that "the left" is at war with them, imagine if they linked arms with progressives & delivered a unified message.

On one hand, Paramount says it needs to be financially disciplined, and thus must cut people like Stephen Colbert.

On the other hand, it goes out and spends an absurd amount of money to buy Bari Weiss' The Free Press.

Trump's health issues—and his attempt to cover them up—are literally visible on camera.

And yet, the same press that went aggressively after Biden is choosing not to give the story real attention.

The Free Press sells itself as a truth-telling outlet not afraid to deliver hard truths to readers.

And yet, they're rather silent on the authoritarian creep in this country. In their eyes, DEI is the big threat to America.

Shouldn't The Washington Post editorial board have more important things to weigh on?
