make that *not yelling*
not telling, but happy
yes they should
the White House Correspondents Association should cancel its upcoming dinner
to dignify a destructive,
corrupt, mentally ill president who is trashing the foundational elements that make America exceptional does not advance the cause of journalism and the First Amendment

Used to tune into Warner Bros. News-CNN before that silk-suit kissing Licht started doing his scallywaggery to watch @johnjharwood.bsky.social 'slice and dice' the proven felon and racist Trump. Harwood and Brian Wiliams were like Letterman, like surgeons — the cut so clean, Trump didn't even know.

No Democrat has won a statewide election in Texas since 1994. In fact, only one major statewide race has even been close this century — when Beto O’Rourke came within three points of knocking out Senator Ted Cruz in 2018.
New YouGov poll finds that for the first time, a majority of Americans disapprove of Trump *strongly.* His overall approval is down to 38%, a new second-term low.
