  So journalists, staff, & pilots were decoys, their lives unknowingly at risk. “But if I go, you go. Right?” Trump suggested to reporters. “Perhaps someday you want to change professions.” Gift link.

  Shameful: The #BrokenTimes hands David Ellison op-ed space rather than challenging his bullshit pap and propaganda about journalism with the receipts he has already delivered at CBS. That would be journalism. https://www.nytimes.com/2026/08/04/opinion/david-ellison-paramount-warner-deal.html

  Why did the #BrokenTimes put this picture of McConnell on its homepage? It's from May, but homepage illustrations have no captions. It leaves the wrong impression. Images matter.

  The #BrokenPost is getting way ahead of itself trying to graft DSA cooties onto the Democratic Party. I haven't heard any talk of a DSA candidate for president two years hence. How long before they ask whether we'll vote for a communist?

  This is rich (pun intended): WSJ claims class warfare by Mamdani: "collectivism...class enemies, comrade....socialist cadres." Its rich readers tried to prove they didn't live in NYC to dodge taxes; now they'll insist they live there to dodge taxes.🎻 https://www.wsj.com/opinion/zohran-mamdani-pied-a-terre-tax-list-ali-najmi-ed22425b?st=bivZBR

  Rand Paul is such an ass.

  Ron Paul is such an ass. Every Republican member of this committee should be taking the Fifth when they are put on trial for their complicit role in causing the deaths of untold Americans through vaccine hesitancy and quack treatments. Their willful antiscience ignorance is deadly.

  Fox is, of course, going batshit over getting an unknown DSA person's fringe opinions, and this morning Joe Scarborough joins in. Among Democrats, she's ignored.

  *Every* politician promises hope and change and faces high hurdles as opponents dole out criticism. Never has there been a more all-purpose, evergreen headline. Did the editor who wrote it sigh at the futility of it?

  Americans are struggling with high costs and the #BrokenTimes decides this is the moment to have a writer buy a $160 hat ("it fit my head like an avocado fits its pit") and $770 shirt.
