I cannot believe the military is conducting a live fire artillery exercise above a California freeway causing the freeway to shut down, trains to shut down, preventing people from getting to the airport and risking lives for some crazy show of military strength??? Who is going to be impressed?

They’re after Jimmy. Nexstar has pulled his show from their ABC-affiliated stations.

"Mr. Kimmel's comments about the death of Mr. Kirk are offensive and insensitive at a critical time in our national political discourse, and we do not believe they reflect the spectrum of opinions, views, or values of the local communities in which we are located," said Andrew Alford, President of Nexstar's broadcasting division. Continuing to give Mr. Kimmel a broadcast platform in the communities we serve is simply not in the public interest at the current time, and we have made the difficult decision to preempt his show in an effort to let cooler heads prevail as we move toward the resumption of respectful, constructive dialogue."

BREAKING

Nexstar Media, which owns around two dozen ABC affiliates, says it will preempt Jimmy Kimmel Live indefinitely tonight due to his commentary on Charlie Kirk’s assassination.

Important to note that the FCC has to sign-off on Nexstar’s aquistion of TEGNA media group.

DUN-DUN-DUN -- Maria Bartiromo and company react with stunned silence to a "disappointing" jobs report showing only 73,000 jobs were created in July

Epstein survivor Sarah Ransome on Ghislaine Maxwell: “It makes me sick that she is claiming to be a victim. This is the same woman that grabbed my arm and forced me into a room to be raped by Jeffrey. She had this evil smirk on her face. And she enjoyed it.”

“This is the worst economic jobs report since the end of the pandemic.” - CNN

This is disgusting. And why would she be offered a pardon or immunity if not to protect the people currently in power?

Wow

Can't wait - Hope we'll see some of you there!

OK, Secretary Noem, then show us the receipts that you extended those contracts.

Turn over documents detailing exactly when you renewed those contracts.

There needs to be bipartisan oversight and Congressional hearings over these truly unacceptable failures.

I don’t think anyone is prepared for what they just did w/ ICE.

This is not a simple budget increase. It is an explosion - making ICE bigger than the FBI, US Bureau of Prisons, DEA,& others combined.

It is setting up to make what’s happening now look like child’s play. And people are disappearing.

Can’t make this up.

For the sake of women's health and so much more, kill this bill. Capitol switchboard: (202) 224-3121

Bartiromo: "We are waiting any moment now to get the jobs number for the month of June. The expectations call for the numbers to be up 95,000. Right now seeing the number -- actually, uh, showing a decline in jobs, uh, down 33,000, uh."

When history marks the point where we lost the future to China, this will be it.

Ah, the golden age.

McGovern: "A family making less than $50,000 a year? They get less than $1 a day in tax cuts. You can't buy a damn cup of coffee with that. But those making a million dollars or more? They'll get more than $250 a day in tax breaks ... that's how rigged this bill is to benefit the wealthy."

“But I voted for it anyhow.”

She's pathetic.

So true!

Such a great look for this billionaire couple because they just don't have enough money to keep for themselves

The Chan-Zuckerbergs stopped funding social causes. 400 kids lost their school. Priscilla Chan and Mark Zuckerberg’s retreat from funding social issues forced the closure of a school Chan opened for disadvantaged families in Silicon Valley.

Priscilla Chan’s decision to stop funding the school she opened to help struggling families shows the risks for communities reliant on wealthy private donors.

Lisa Murkowski cuts a last minute deal solely to benefit Alaska, exempting it from some of the more odious parts of the bill to secure her vote and sell out the rest of the US. Yeah this stuff sucks and hurts a lot of people, but I got Alaskans exempted so the hell with you.
