Always follow the money.

The pile of fecal matter named his festering carcass chairman for life.

is a ton of this kind of corrupt shit being done in the shadows that we don't know about by the MAGA 2025 group and U.S. Corporations fully backing it......

I can't imagine why people don't recognize the fact that 95+% of ALL media in the United States is owned/operated by legal wealthy Republicans.....and has been for decades, accelerating to the point it now is.........

One of Hitler's first moves, was to take over all the Media in Germany, for the exact same reason....100% control of the Propaganda.........Not at all unlike Putin's PRAVDA, .......Russia's state government controlled media.........

they are thoroughly corrupted and/or desensitized to his sick corruption

Nobody could follow anything in the news.

Most people expect this to be just one more insane vanity project that will disappear before anything concrete happens.

I do assume/hope he won't get the $10 billion and people are just ignoring it and hoping he forgets about it.

They also know many dems will continue to consume their right wing propaganda.

The younger, the better.

portrait on the wall. Creeped me out then, even more so now that Ihave a slightly better idea of the depth and breadth of his depravity.

It's membership is vastly more pathetic than Dubya's "coalition of the willing."

on a daily basis, it become difficult to focus on just one of his many scandals.

Because Trump tm'd, Palm Beach will have to pay Trump every year to use the name.

If congress was making a fool out of him over it, they'd cover it.

Media gets free pass and few have any courage. Podcasts grilling Trump over it, thiugh.

The acronym fits. Trump BOPs Palestine and Americans with it.

didn't do it.

so they should investigate it quickly before it goes above 50,000 again and they have to stop.

There are very few true "journalists" left and they are not in the White House Press Corps. Although I will admit that Kaitlin Collins has shown some backbone in standing up to them.

Most are just looking for a quote they can use when they go on one of the evening talk shows. They dare not cross the line and report stories that are important or ask questions that are off-limits. If they can find some juicy tidbit or something controversial and interesting, that is the story that they report.

and reinstate ownership and other regulations or things will not get better.

I'm no fan of our media, but they have a real problem trying to cover all the simultaneous insane stories gushing out of this administration.

I shun them as much as possible.

In the scheme of the total economic firestorm that trump has unleashed against the USA and its allies.

Why not this grift?

I haven't been able to figure out why the media just shrugs at everything he says and does since day one. He can't possibly be that powerful. I know conservative companies own the media and they're supporters of his horrid agenda, but this is beyond the pale.

Soon all we will have here is state-run media.

What's happening and the fact that so many other countries seem fine with it are absolutely shocking.

The claim that the US government cares about democracy has been exposed for the complete and utter lie that, sorry to say, it's always been.

It was reported and quite a bit.

None to be found. Oh, acting like a stenographer and just passing off a press release is not reporting.

I've tapped into some global media outlets via IP (internet protocol) streaming and avoid US media.

All media have their own internal biases, but for a better oversight of media reporting the news I go to:

UK BBC
Aljazeera
DW
ABC (AU)

Different slants on the same topics, but you get to see the slant your local media feeds you very clearly.
