Disney Escalates Fight With DeSantis “The government action was patently retaliatory, patently anti-business, and patently unconstitutional,” Disney alleged in the civil complaint in U.S. District Court in northern Florida...

It is an oversimplification to say the US economy is doing well or poorly because of any US president. The massive debt we now carry exists because of what both parties have done over the years. Geopolitical developments that no president causes have huge economic impacts in the US. There is a...

I think it's more like Biden has every intention of working with McCarthy on a budget. Biden knows how the budget process works and there is no way a deal can be struck without working with the House. McCarthy has made it known he is willing to produce a debt-ceiling crisis. I think Biden is...

In fact, McCarthy had a sit-down meeting with Biden. It was on Feb 1 at the White House. https://www.whitehouse.gov/briefing-room/statements-releases/2023/02/01/readout-of-president-bidens-meeting-with-speaker-mccarthy/

Fox Ratings Post-Carlson Here's the ratings for the very short time Carlson has been gone from Fox: "Ratings at Fox News have fallen after Tucker Carlson’s shock exit on Monday. "On Monday night, Brian Kilmeade filled the top host’s spot and drew in an average of 2.6 million viewers and...

No Budget Bill Yet; Clock Ticking This was the budget bill news yesterday: Prospects for the sweeping package were buoyed by a nonpartisan Congressional Budget Office analysis showing the Republican plan would reduce federal deficits by $4.8 trillion over the decade if the proposed changes...

TMTG is currently under investigation by the SEC, the Department of Justice, and a federal grand jury in the Southern District of New York. A. This is purely political. Corrupt government officials are abusing their power because they fear Trump and will do anything to hurt him and thereby...

A mass exodus to where?

I don't know if any former or current Fox personality had/has the ratings Carlson did. But it will be interesting to see if the dynamic is the same. Based on the history of Fox personalities who left, I think it is highly unlikely that wherever Carlson ends up, he'll have 3 million viewers...

He got fired because he did everything right?

That's not a fair question. In Trump's political cases, it's hard to find ANY judge that has ruled in Trump's favor. And where you can find one, he or she is generally overturned on appeal.

What about the Trump-appointed and other Republican-appointed judges who rule against Trump. Are they also leftist political activists who wear black robes?

Another Trial Begins for Trump; This One a Rape Lawsuit https://apnews.com/article/trump-rape-carroll-columnist-fddbb3e9e3cb6a3831ac5e09dd222774

The Tennessee Three had their White House meeting yesterday. People barely noticed because the Tucker Carlson out of Fox News story got most of the news and talk-show coverage.

That will be a tough call whatever the evaluation date is. Carlson was but one show of many and one personality of many. And as you said, the context will change as we progress through the election cycle, Trump court appearances, congressional developments, geopolitical developments, other...

I attachd the stock chart for FOX covering the last year or so. Notice the little green bar on the far right side. That's telling you the stock us up slightly so far today. The big red bar before it is yesterday's price action. FOX was clearly down on the Carlson departure. That's the market cap...

I did not see that one coming. Few hard facts are available to help us understand the "why?" behind the event. At this point, all we know is (1) Fox announced Fox and Carlson have "parted ways." The statement says it was a mutual decision. (2) There was no indication this was coming when...

I agree we're fragmented but I'm not sure it's into two red and blue halves. A significant percentage of the voting public are registered as independents; not affiliated with either party by choice. Labeling anyone as right or left, conservative or liberal, red or blue is problematic. While it...

Thank you, LDB. Using your scale, at what point in American history was the highest number achieved? At that time, what were we doing as a country to achieve our top score?

In this thread, I'm not asking what other people see and believe. In an effort to better understand, I'm asking what YOU see and believe. Above, did I accurately state YOUR views? Do I have that right or wrong?
