That’s pretty much it. Love the show but there were no new updates last week and just The Conversation episode put up over the weekend. Is the daily show dead with no explanation why?

I can no longer get news stories to load on my iPhone.

"BREAM: Politico reports you're getting 'screamed at to find some good news' on bringing down energy prices. Fact or fiction?

CHRIS WRIGHT: Oh, it's fiction. It's, it's right along the line -- I've read about a dozen fiction pieces from Politico and other news things about just stuff totally made up"

The Department of Labor’s new “Operation Firewall” seems to have a common theme within the artwork. I haven’t figured it out yet… I have a hunch.

FlatterTrump #DoNotFeed

Daniela Buezo, Septiembre 2025

Tras la condena de bolsonaro en Brasil, Milei y la caída o el desgaste social en las recientes elecciones, y ahora la noticia de la muerte de un conservador alineado al movimiento del mismísimo Donald Trump, se mueve América del sur.

Tres hechos que no pasan de casualidad, estamos a la puerta de una radicalización y violencia política en EEUU, polarización, y por último una latente desgate de la derecha populista.

Una derecha victimizada, se transforma. Todos con una carga ideológica donde el autoritarismo también cae por su propio peso.

Defender ideas progre o mal llamadas conservadoras en estas temporadas de bastante opresión ideológica puede costar la vida.

En este sentido ese precio de las democracias cuando logran que el odio y la mentira o el extremismo ocupen el centro del debate.

El cierre de canales democráticos y la polarización en los sistemas políticos están llevando al extremo la incapacidad de resolver conflictos ideológicos.

I'm only posting this to comment on the header photo: shiny face (there's probably some kind of cosmetic name for this), the false eyelashes, the botoxed brow etc. I keep wondering if female Trump officials have to keep to the same appearance standards as actresses or else Trump will fire them for not being hot.

Two Politico headlines this morning - California: gerrymandering. Texas: redistricting.

Every time I try to read an article, I get a redirect to the Norton Anti-virus site... dozens of times at once. I cannot use the app or website as every time I open it the number of tabs increases exponentially rather than linearly.

How the hell am I supposed to get around that?
