Following the shooting of Kirk, can a class action suit be filed against those who deliberately put all black ppl, esp. our grandchildren, in danger of being attacked or killed! Fox was inciting attacks on all liberals, Democrats, Black ppl, & all non-white citizens! Uuuum, now CBS owes us for promoting the lies of #47?

I do believe shows that claim to present the "news" need to be held responsible for any lies they spread. Hate speech, and in general speech that promotes hate and violence should have some limits upon them.

Sadiq Khan surprised many when he became the Mayor of London in 2016. He is now serving his 3rd term.

The key difference is that CBS didn't edit anything controversial from the Harris interview, but they cleaned up the Trump interview significantly. Good to know I'm not the only one noticing the freaky right eye. Also, where are his eyelashes?

Commie commie commie...it is getting old and tired. Time to find a new Boogeyman. This illustrates the lack of creativity and imagination on the right. Communism has never been a threat and never will. When Fox or the Trumpublicans don't like someone or something they reach for the old exhausting commie label. A socialist Democrat ( Mandami ) is vastly different from a communist. This nonsense has been used in effect since the forties to try and scare people ...and it basically worked. People today at least I would hope can see this as bs. McCarthy and Reagan beat this drum relentlessly. If people had a brain they would realize that they are (were) being lied to by the billionaire /oligarchs using their political pawns to deliver that message. They are the people most threatened by communism.

I predict when the 'Disapproval' ratings for Trump get to 70% across several reliable polls you will start to see actual shifting by Republican Politicians. 30% is close to the core 20% Trump will have no matter what. The Question these politicians will ask is when does MAGA no longer control the primary in their district. When does supporting Trump mean they will actually LOSE in the primary? Then they will change their votes in congress rather than lose their seat.

I am actually surprised at the displayed intelligence of MTG. She is talking like a sane person and is rapidly (though not yet completely) distancing herself from Trump's MAGA. I suspect she was just playing the politics game better than most and is now getting in front of the crowd, so it looks like she changed on 'principle' rather than simple fear.

The tide has been shifting, Tuesday was just the latest measure of it. Trump is VERY good at creating strong 'anti-Trump' voters. By 2026 Trump will have an even higher score of people who will never vote for him or anyone supporting him. May even be high enough to overcome the 'margins' in gerrymandered districts.

Yep. It Feels Good

I gotta admit that it’s sweet,

To watch these guys bleat in defeat.

Man up! Stop your whining!

There’s no silver lining!

Take a selfie and pout. Hit delete.
