Trump fired the head of the Bureau of Labor statisti s. This is the end of being able to trust the data from the federal government on employment, GDP, or any other critical information. They will only want to produce information that pleases Trump, not the truth. This is how you get a failed state.

Finally, some good news. People Magazine has confirmed that Pamela Anderson, 58, and Liam Neeson, 73, are dating.

Pamela Anderson and Liam Neeson stand close together on a blue carpet, smiling warmly at each other in front of a promotional poster for The Naked Gun. Pamela wears a sleeveless, floor-length navy gown with a brooch on her left shoulder and sheer black lace gloves. Liam wears a light gray suit with an open-collared white shirt and black dress shoes. The background features bright pink elements from the movie poster, creating a bold contrast with their classic attire.

Supposedly after pretending it was about money they're just openly talking in meetings about how they'll trash contracts and fire comedians for the absolutely unprescedented act of... making fun of the president on a late night talk show. Dictator shit.

While the studio audience – and many viewers - clearly agreed with the eloquent sentiment, the show’s bosses did not. Now it looks like Colbert may not even make it to the end of the series next year, as, according to journalist Rob Shuter, there have been words had with Colbert, and they have come “very close” to pulling him off-air. After reportedly calling a emergency meeting the morning after Cobert’s show aired, two senior executives reportedly said: “He's daring us to fire him. And honestly? We’re close to doing it. He’s been warned. What he said was unacceptable. There are real consequences this time.”

Today, more than a month later, the government’s own witness admitted that they haven’t been able to corroborate that allegation.

New in PN: Pam Bondi is breaking the DOJ "The Department of Justice is no longer in the business of justice at all, and has squandered the presumption of regularity it once enjoyed with judges. One of the bulwarks of American civil society is functionally MIA — a massive blow to state capacity."

I can’t wrap my mind around the fact that the richest man in the world began this horrendous and obscene action to deliberately starve the world’s most vulnerable populations FOR NO REASON. Destroying food when millions are dying of starvation is the most inhumane act anyone could imagine 😔

ROSEN: Despite being removed as national security adviser, surprisingly, you've been on the WH payroll. You've said you'll root out waste at the UN. Can you confirm whether you've been receiving a salary? WALTZ: I was kept on as an adviser transitioning a number of, uh, important activities

“Sanseitō ('Political Participation Party'; self-rendered as Party of Do it Yourself!! in English) is an ultraconservative, right-wing populist political party founded in 2020.“ They are aligned w/the AfD, Reform UK, MAGA, and other international fascist parties. Think RFK Jr. meets Josef Goebbels.

Trump's pollster finds GOP trailing by 3 points in generic House matchup in competitive districts, and by 7 among very motivated voters, with huge majorities wanting ACA tax credits extended. On the pod, @kedseconomist.com is good on Trumponomics' failings: newrepublic.com/article/1980...
