This warning from David Letterman to the media from just a year ago feels sadly too relevant today.
He is right: You can't appease a tyrant.

What a surprise to learn that a Russian oligarch close to Putin paid for Junior’s lavish wedding. Who could’ve expected it?

An Amazon worker died in one of Amazon's warehouses.
As he lay on the floor dying, management told the other workers: "Just turn around and don't look. Get back to work."
That was a human being. A child of God. Sacrificed on the altar of corporate greed.

The U.S. owes $40 trillion in debt.
Everyone has an opinion about why.
But there’s one question you almost never hear asked:
Who’s actually getting paid?

Ossoff: "I have zero interest in running for president in 2028, and frankly zero interest in the 2028 fantasy football right now ... these midterms are the whole ballgame ... I don't know that we have a free and fair election in 2028 unless we restore checks and balances in these 2026 midterms."

The cyclospora outbreak has reached 7,400 cases across 9 states.
The FDA just recalled 1.6 million eggs due to salmonella contamination.
Screwworm cases continue to rise.

We cannot accept the reckless use of deadly force by federal agents as normal.
There is a pattern of this administration misleading the public and withholding key facts after these killings.

No diplomatic experience. In way over their head. Both with massive financial conflicts of interest, their fortunes tied to the Middle East dictators that make them rich.
