What a nightmare. By implementing the tariffs illegally, and now having to unwind them, the Trump administration created over $100 billion of profit for corporations selling foreign products, at the expense of American consumers. Your refund: $0.00 Apple’s profit: $2.2 billion

To anyone still gullible enough to fall for scummy media hoaxes: Trump said warmongering neocons love sending your kids to die for wars they would never fight themselves. Liz Cheney is Kamala’s top advisor. Liz wants to invade the whole Middle East. Kamala = WWIII. Trump = Peace.

Look, I know in this age of Trump the fundamental concepts of right and wrong no longer matter, the law no longer matters, the truth no longer matters, and here at home our Constitution no longer matters. So I’m probably just shouting into the wind, but…it doesn’t matter what you think of Maduro, what we just did in Venezuela is immoral, unconstitutional, and illegal. And it makes us no different than any other dictatorial regime that invades another sovereign nation.

From WSJ: “Inside the White House, top advisers joke that they are ruling Congress with an ‘iron fist,’… Steve Bannon, the influential Trump ally, likened Congress to the Duma, the Russian assembly that is largely ceremonial.” wsj.com/politics/policy/trum…

The video of this incident is just as bad as it sounds. The priest is standing there, not doing anything remotely illegal, and without warning a masked DHS agent on the roof shoots him in the top of his head with a pepper ball.
Gonna be thinking about this lede for a minute.

This is a breathtaking abuse of the law and power by the President of the United States. America is on the brink of martial law. Do not be silent.
This evening, President Trump is ordering 400 members of the Texas National Guard for deployments to Illinois, Oregon, and other locations within the United States. No officials from the federal government called me directly to discuss or coordinate.

Just In: Federal judge temporarily blocks Trump administration from deploying *any* National Guard troops in Oregon. The judge is a Trump appointee. Unclear what this may mean for Illinois deployment. @cbschicago

Ty Cobb, Trump’s own former WH attorney, isn’t mincing words: “We have a president ordering his AG to indict his enemies. And the AG… says: ‘Yes, sir. How fast can I get that done for you?’” Let that sink in. This isn’t justice. It’s regime revenge.

Trust me.
The countries where comedians can't mock the leader on late night TV are not really ones you want to live in.

In the last few years we've seen: - The plot to kidnap Gretchen Whitmer - The Storming of the Capitol and pipe bombs left at the RNC and DNC - The break-in to kidnap Nancy Pelosi and the brutal on Paul Pelosi - Multiple assassination attempts against Trump - The assassination of Minnesota House Speaker Melissa Hortman and her husband and the shooting of on State Senator John Hoffman and his wife - Luigi Mangione's assassination of Brian Thompson - The assassination of Charlie Kirk Political violence is contagious. It is spreading. It is not confined to one side or belief system. It should terrify us all. The foundation of a free society is the ability to participate in it without fear of violence. Political violence is always an attack against us all. You have to be so blind not to see that.

When I stream movies on Amazon Prime, everything looks great. Live NFL games with millions watching? Crappy low-res picture..for most of the game. Streaming sports still mostly sucks, but YouTube TV seems to have it figured out. Why is it so hard for Prime and Netflix?

Glad I restarted my @netflix account today so I could watch this garbage stream with tons of super fun buffering.

No! Permanent DST is worse than clock change. Health and safety need permanent Standard Time.
We don’t have to continue this age-old practice of falling back every fall. Why would we? It’s exhausting! It’s time to pass my Sunshine Protection Act and LOCK THE CLOCK. We need more sunshine, not less! ☀️

Again, permanent STANDARD TIME is the play. AZ does it right. Read up on it, kids.

Has anyone from the @nfl or anyone on any broadcast explained how and when replay assist is applied? I’m all for correcting obvious mistakes, but it seems like they fix calls here and there pretty randomly. Can’tyou fix all of the OBVIOUS mistakes? Like the facemask just now?
