Aside from advocating mass killing, Lara Trump agrees with VP Harris that migrants should not undertake a journey to the US southern border even as full consular service has not been restored to all US embassies since the end of the Trump regime. (2020) Former Department of Homeland Security (DHS)...

NASA needed to test its Rover programming and terrain around the same time as the trend for movies about street racing and making doughnuts on pavement. Happy science. https://twitter.com/OhOEvie/status/1364008082552934400?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw Nasa’s $800m Mars Exploration Rovers have accidentally drawn a penis. The twin exploration vehicles Spirit and Opportunity were launched nine years ago,...
End this long national nightmare. GOTV The Senate seats most likely to flip in November Republicans have a slim, three-seat majority in the Senate that they’re trying to hold on to in November. And they are in for a battle to do it: There are 13 chances on this list...
The land of flaming nitwits. More federal government shakedowns, courtesy of the GOP, complete with payoffs to try to get re-elected. x This may be the single greatest protest chant of all time…Please someone get some audio and play it as part of an on air segment ðÂÂÂðÂÂÂð pic.twitter.com/XFr0mmOl0Xâ Jason...
Since the latest media frame “defend/defund the police” is self-limiting, the discourse should move to redefining emergency services much as “first-responders” has expanded to include those on the “front-line”. Trumpists just don’t get it, but they will seize on the latest frame much like some celebrities (and IMPOTUS*) can confuse...
COVID-19 case and death rates are high enough but not high enough to stop RWNJs from threatening public officials. “The number of confirmed COVID-19 cases in Michigan is now over 50,000.” And the death toll will soon reach 5,000. On Thursday, Michigan closed down its capitol building and canceled its legislative session...
Some big news: x IâÂÂm deeply honored to receive the endorsement of President @BarackObama. In these trying times, our district and nation need us to show real leadership. We have one week to go for the #CA25 special election. LetâÂÂs show the country we are united by hope and ready...
Trump’s usual complaints about Fox News are mainly meant to expand what are now a propaganda ensemble of extremist news channels on cable in the run up to the election. x Watching @FoxNews on weekend afternoons is a total waste of time. We now have some great alternatives, like @OANN.â Donald...
Today Trump tried bait and switch, doing a briefing on the indictments and increased military operations against Venezuela. He used the pretext of a COVID-19 Taskforce to lead with the outlines of a pretext for arresting Maduro as enforcing drug-trafficking indictments. Apparently Trump still believes he can game the MSM....
Remember all those people insisting a few weeks ago that COVID-19 was just a cold, then just like the flu, then an overblown Democratic hoax? How can they keep claiming they’re right about everything? I mean, if I’d showed up on the House floor in a jokey gas mask to “own...
The Trump campaign’s media strategy will more directly address “local news” that at some moment might trade on the same model of Sinclair Broadcasting. Brad Parscale described it as “fighting with the local papers”. Information spam and the Trump campaign could have much more in common this year, since the...
Disinformation in plain sight now includes a series of stunts, supported by OAN and apparently pro-Russian Ukrainian politicians as Rudy Giuliani tries to spin more mischief for Trump. Coincidentally a Sinclair reporter asked Speaker Pelosi the “hate” question today. Giuliani’s trips were organized around filming of a multipart television series...
Apparently another primitive, yet violent video was reshown at a recent meeting of American Priorities at Trump’s Doral Resort. Sadly, Trump won’t be attending the WHCA dinner to show it, and some of us ignored it when it first was reported. Surprising is how it hasn’t really gone viral. In the...
#BoycottABC is now trending thanks to their airing of the despicable New Faces GOP PAC ad they ran and some of their stations during the Democratic debate last night. x The ad inciting violence by burning AOCâÂÂs face with human skulls and dead bodies was not only aired on SinclairâÂÂs...
In some ways, Sinclair Broadcasting — which owns nearly 200 television stations across the country — may be more pernicious than Fox News, because most of the time its affiliates seem like real stations. They’ll get the hot scoops at county fair corn roasts about people’s favorite way to eat...

AUTHOR’S NOTE: This is an update to a previous story I published here. According to the Springfield (IL) Journal-Register, at least four advertisers have pulled their funding from Sinclair Broadcast Group-owned ABC affiliate WICS-TV, which is licensed to Springfield, Illinois and serves much of central Illinois and, through its full-power...
You may be familiar with Sinclair Broadcast Group as that company that owns a lot of TV stations and forces its stations to run right-wing, pro-Trump propaganda segments like the controversial Boris Epshteyn segments. However, Sinclair is getting attention for a different reason altogether. Joe Crain, a meteorologist who is...
Upfront: If you think that anything is justified against a person simply because that person is wealthy, this is not an article for you. If you think it’s okay to lie, mislead, or otherwise attack a person simply because of their financial status, consequences be damned, then you should probably...
