Why are the best news shows all comedies? * Have I Got News For You (CNN) * Real Time with Bill Maher * The Daily Show (Comedy Central) * Last Week Tonight With John Oliver The serious news shows are too repetitive, superficial, and more talking points than insight or news.

What scares me is that the only sector that is doing well is AI and it is bolstering the stock market hiding the weaker results. If AI follows the hype curve and Trump doesn't back down from tariffs, we could be falling into a economic Depression when the AI bubble bursts.

Gerrymandering is the stealing of votes. Donald Trump is actively trying to rig the 2026 mid-term election. Is anyone bothered by the hypocrisy? Yes, both parties used to do this every 10 years. Now, it will occur whenever it can be done. Sad. America is less great.

Trump's bullying will push the rest of the world against the US. Trump First is not in America's interest. If we don't honor our past agreements and don't aid nations who need help, why would any country trust their security or future with the United States?

If benevolence is weakness (they're ripping us off), world peace is globalism (let Putin win and save money), buying of cheaper goods is wrong (trade deficit), and we encourage the world to trust in China (berating of allies), how is this not a betrayal of American values?

Isn't it ironic that the same people who say Make America Great are the ones enabling the deconstruction of America's greatness: the breaking apart of Democracy, the Constitution, Scientific Greatness, Universities, Accountable Government, the Free Press, and Free Speech. Sad.

Gave Newsmax a read. Found misleading stories: newsmax.com/newsfront/tari… President makes a claim. It is reported as fact without any checks. It turns out that this claim by Trump is not backed by any known evidence. Here's the fact check: x.com/i/grok/share/q…

Very concerning that in the Trump admin, if you give an assessment that is not favorable enough, you're fired: cnn.com/2025/08/22/pol…

Let us all pray that the mistakes of the Democrats don't lead Republicans and Libertarians to tolerate federal overreach. We must not let the US fall victim to the waves of authoritarianism that promise low crime but then take away free speech, due process, checks and balances.

The most sacred responsibility of the US president is to uphold the Constitution. That is the oath of office. Fed agencies should be independent of POTUS in their operations. POTUS becomes the boss of the nation temporarily ONLY in times of war and other equivalent emergencies.

The term "America First" is either so obvious that it doesn't need to be said or it means America alone. What if we start having Texas First, California First, etc. Chicago First, Nashville First, etc? It weakens NATO, divides Americans, and makes us weaker as a nation.

Yesterday was my first time using Github Copilot for real at work (now that we are allowed). It did ok. It was good at tasks you search on the internet, read up on, and apply. Not so good on fix what is not working. Here, it often failed. Still, it saved time and mental energy.

If you were outraged when the Dems went after Trump, you should be just as outraged when the Trump admin goes after Cook. This is ridiculous, hypocritical, shameful, and clearly an abuse of power: cnn.com/2025/08/21/eco…

If we can stop being so angry and taking sides, we'll see that neither political party is looking out for the Constitution, Democracy, or cleaning up the swamp. The system has always been imperfect but now, we are watching our safeguards and checks being openly dismantled. Sad.

Just asking... Why is Trump notoriously secretive in his talks with Putin but is not so secretive with any other world leader? x.com/i/grok/share/F…

It's not about what's true any more. It's about how things appear to the given audience. Alternative priorities. Alternative assumptions. I've been watching different viewpoints. They are unfortunately incommensurate.

Can anyone explain why Putin gets red carpet but no red carpet for the Western leaders? Putin says no ceasefire; Trump now says the same. Putin says that mail-in ballots cannot be trusted. Trump is once again trying to get rid of mail-in ballots. But no Russian Collusion, right?

Unclear why Trump is no longer demanding a cease fire. Is this the argument: A cease fire reduces pressure. Keep the pressure. Go for real peace. This is a bad argument. What's the opposite of a never-ending war? A never-ending cease fire. No trust + no cease fire = no peace.
