BBC: BBC director general and News CEO resign over Trump documentary edit

The BBC’s director general Tim Davie and head of News Deborah Turness have resigned following criticism that a Panorama documentary misled viewers by editing a speech by Donald Trump.

‘I am not done’ – Kamala Harris tells BBC she may run for president again

Has there ever been a less self-aware national politician? It’s not a partisan opinion to say that the Biden era is over, and DEI is waning. Harris doesn’t have a faction, power base or large donors.

Rachel Maddow loses her composure when she sees that her parent company contributed to the White House ballroom project. There is no reason to get bent out of shape about this renovation.

There aren’t many jewelry heists anymore, so this is exciting.

French authorities raced against the clock Tuesday, intensifying their hunt for the priceless royal jewels stolen from the Louvre, and the thieves whose brazen daylight robbery left the nation reeling.

3 takeaways from Saturday’s No Kings nationwide protests

I am trying to understand the objective of the “No Kings” protests. It’s like Lisa Simpson’s anti-tiger rock. In a little over 3 years, when Trump’s term wraps up, the “No Kings” protestors will take credit for the peaceful transfer of power.

Hamas surrendered its last living hostages, giving up the only leverage it had left in this mess they started two years ago.

Democrats have been saying that Trump is Hitler for a decade. That’s done. A Hitler would not work so hard to get Jews released.
