Last week, former President Donald Trump posted to Truth Social, “MSNBC (Msdnc) uses Free government approved airwaves, and yet it is nothing but a 24-hour hit job on Donald J. Trump and the Republican Party for purposes of Election Interference.”
He continued, “Brian Roberts, its Chairman and CEO, is a slimeball who has been able to get away with these constant attacks for years. It is the world’s biggest political contribution to the Radical Left Democrats who, by the way, are destroying our Country. Our so-called ‘government’ should come down hard on them and make them pay for their illegal political activity. Much more to come, watch!”
Journalists and pundits have swiftly condemned his remarks and have cautioned the former president’s clear commitment to the restriction of press freedoms and his retaliation against those who voice dissent.

Exclusive: As part of a strengthening of its IP division, Buchwald has signed the Scholarly Film Company production banner, which focuses on seeking out academic material that can be adapted for the screen.
Founded by Dr. Sipke Shaughnessy of Cambridge University and based in London, the Sfc’s mission is to mine academic monographs, doctoral dissertations and scholarly journal articles for IP that could be adapted into films and TV shows. Most projects will be set up as co-productions.
One of the first projects under the Sfc banner will be How to Rig an Election, written by Nic Cheeseman and Brian Klaas, which is being developed as a series. Based on more than 500 interviews with world leaders and using real-world examples, they reveal the six essential strategies used to undermine the electoral process and secure a victory, the producers say.

Jennifer Harrison, founder of the right-wing group Az Patriots, was arrested in Arizona this week on suspicion of identity theft. Harrison became a viral sensation back in August after a video surfaced of her wearing a Maga hat at a Tucson City Council meeting while protesting an immigration proposal that would prohibit police from inquiring about a person’s immigration status.
Harrison’s viral moment came when video captured her yelling, “Respect our laws!” among other things, during the meeting. But the video’s success was mostly due to a...

Until Thursday morning, President Trump’s meetings with Nato leaders went about as expected, meaning that he spent most of his time in Belgium attacking allies – particularly Germany – for not paying their “fair share” of defense spending. “I expected bad, and I kept telling people to expect bad, but it is still surreal to see,” a current Nato official told the Daily Beast on Wednesday.
Things got worse.
The president reportedly showed up 30 minutes late on the summit’s final morning, skipped meetings with a few leaders and then forced...

Since the White House released a photo of President Donald Trump with the 2018 spring intern class this week, social media has been quick to pick up on a theme: lack of diversity. “The White House intern photo is like a Where’s Waldo for a non-white person–in a country that is about 40% non-white,” wrote Washington Post columnist Brian Klaas on Twitter. Indeed, in what’s becoming a recurring theme for the Trump administration and the national Republican party, the overwhelming majority of the young faces gathered for the shot were white.

President Donald Trump lashed out at the FBI via Twitter on Saturday night, asserting that the organization was preoccupied investigating his presidential campaign and neglected to follow up on information about the shooter who killed 17 when he opened fire at a Florida high school on Wednesday.
“Very sad that the FBI missed all of the many signals sent out by the Florida school shooter. This is not acceptable,” he wrote. “They are spending too much time trying to prove Russian collusion with the Trump campaign — there is no collusion. Get back to the basics and make us all proud!”
