The next time a MAGA person shouts "fake news" at you, you might want to remind them that back in 2016 Donald Trump confessed to 60 Minutes' Lesley Stahl that he attacks the press so that "no one will believe" the "negative stories" about him that they report. Consequently, I thought I'd reblog this old story about what he said, just to remind people.

President Donald Trump told the veteran journalist Lesley Stahl of the CBS program “60 Minutes” that he bashes the press to “demean” and “discredit” reporters so that the public will not believe “negative stories” about him, Stahl said. [...] Stahl said she and her boss met with Trump at his office in Trump Tower in Manhattan after the 2016 election in advance of a recorded sit-down interview for “60 Minutes. “At one point, he started to attack the press,” Stahl said. “There were no cameras in there.” “I said, ‘You know, this is getting tired. Why are you doing it over and over? It’s boring and it’s time to end that. You know, you’ve won ... why do you keep hammering at this?’” Stahl recalled. “And he said: ‘You know why I do it? I do it to discredit you all and demean you all so that when you write negative stories about me no one will believe you.’” [color emphasis added]

Host of CNBC’s ‘Mad Money’ Jim Cramer warns that there will be a 1987 Black Monday style stock market crash on Monday unless Donald Trump addresses tariffs by Monday.

Black Monday refers to the 1987 stock market crash where with the Dow Jones Industrial Average plummeted 508 points—a 22.6% drop in a single day, which remains the largest one-day percentage decline in the history of the Dow.

Not even a year after his Tumblr meltdown over trans women, Matt “Photomatt” Mullenweg is STILL digging his own grave

Here’s his response to a lawsuit filed against him (spoiler, it’s just him being cringe (don’t like that word but that’s the only way I can describe this) and the article saying “meritless” over and over again):

Here’s how the news is covering it:

Meanwhile, Matt has been losing it:

Anyway, keep digging your grave, Matt. It’s an honor to have been blocked by a scumbag like you 😊

Walter Einenkel at Daily Kos:

Federal Communications Commission Chair Brendan Carr was asked about Stephen Colbert, whose show was canceled in what many view as a craven concession to appease President Donald Trump, during an appearance on CNBC Friday. “They have such a storied history, and it's sort of sad to see what's happening to Colbert. They obviously can't get it done. They're not making money over there. But I think they need a course correction. And frankly, I think, you know, the media industry across this country needs a course correction,” he said. [...] When asked about her statement condemning the obvious bribe and violation of the First Amendment, Carr responded, “I think it's time for a change.”

What kind of paint has the Trump lackey FCC Chair Brendan Carr been huffing?

New rule: Mainstream news hosts/pundits owe me $100 every time they quote or cite a working class person who voted for Trump because they're coNcErNed aBouT tHe eConOmy without adding the helpful clarification that

A presidential administration inherits the economy of the one before it and first-term Trump left a fucking shambles which we have macro-economy bounced back on but not in a way that would be felt without directly taking on corporate price-gouging WHICH THE BIDEN ADMIN HAS BEEN TRYING ITS BEST TO DO.

TARIFFS WILL NOT LOWER PRICES, YOU FUCKING WALNUTS. (Sorry, that's insulting to walnuts, a good and noble nut and also the name of the murderous crane who married a human zookeeper.) YOU FUCKING FREEZERBURNED EGGO WAFFLES. (There, that's better.)
