    TIL that Voice of America is a state-run media company dating back to the 1940s. I think Lake’s appointment is just another favor to a loyalist.

    apparently if you get complications they're really bad, my dad's an eye doctor and he's never been big on it

    Every single photo of Mangione looks incredible. Even the ones they're spamming with him looking pissed off in a prison jumpsuit

    I could write ten thousand words and still never come close to truly expressing my hatred for Elon.

    If anyone is ever around Elon, just pronounce Doge like “Dog-e”.

    If anyone is ever around Elon, consider the benefits of becoming a folk hero.

    Been reading about this incoming Paramount-Skydance merger. Apparently there is a lot of talk there is going to be sweeping editorial changes to make CBS News and The Late Show with Stephen Colbert more "politically neutral" to please Trump's FCC so they won't block the merger.

    Like I get Colbert or The Daily Show, but CBS News is already the most neutral and unopinionated of the 5 major legacy broadcast news divisions. I guess the Trump team is pissed at them over their Kamala 60 Minutes interview.

    Also Skydance is owned by the son of one of Trump's largest donors too. Gonna be real interesting to see how/if Colbert tones down next year.

    I do love the right wing media deriding Mangione as "an ivy league kid" when he went to the same university as Trump lol

    In addition to Xi, the president-elect's team has raised the possibility of hosting other leaders at the Capitol on Jan. 20. Hungary's far-right leader, Prime Minister Viktor Orbán, who has a warm relationship with Trump and visited him at Mar-a-Lago this week, is "still considering" whether to attend, according to a source familiar with Orbán's plans
