This seems like an odd way to spin a survey where @foxnews and the Trump Organization had two of the three WORST reputations out of 100 companies surveyed.

The best reputation? @patagonia, which, more than any other company, embraces progressive politics

A landmark legal decision this week has received no media attention

In 1871, Congress passed the Ku Klux Klan Act, which allowed people to sue law enforcement officers who violated their Constitutional rights. In 1967, the Supreme Court FLIPPED THE LAW ON ITS HEAD, using it to protect law enforcement officers who abuse their power by creating a new doctrine: qualified immunity.

A federal judge is calling on the Supreme Court to acknowledge its mistake and end the doctrine of qualified immunity

These arguments are embarassingly facile. University presidents cannot avoid politics. What folks like this are really arguing for is for universities to adopt a style of politics that they support.

Trump really wants to talk about this hush money case — just not under oath

The “social media account” didn’t share it. A person did. That person is named Trump.

realjuddlegum,

If Trump gave access to his account to another person, that’s on him. Trump is responsible for whatever appears on the account.

Earlier this month, Congressman Mike Collins praised a group of protesters at the University of Mississippi that included a student mocking a Black woman by imitating a monkey.

Now, Collins has Trump's "Complete and Total Endorsement!"

Last week, House Republicans joined 18 Democrats and approved a bill prohibiting DC residents from setting their own criminal justice policy

It is all based on the lie that crime is "skyrocketing" in DC

Violent crime in DC is down 27% this year

According to many billionaires, political pundits, and media figures, US universities are now vehicles for "woke" indoctrination

These institutions, they argue, are focused on teaching students about systemic racism, trans rights, and other "woke" topics

There is never any evidence to support these claims

It's all anecdotes and vibes

The DATA shows that these claims are completely baseless

  1. Trump has already violated his gag order 10 times by attacking the jury, witnesses, and the judge's daughter.

Now, his acolytes are flocking to NYC, launching the same attacks.

They appear to be reading from a common script.

It's almost like someone is orchestrating it.

Trump boasts that he "broke Roe v. Wade" and says that, in the aftermath, "states are working very brilliantly" and creating "very beautiful harmony."

In Louisiana, legislators are insisting that child rape victims carry their pregnancy to term.

Tesla is a publicly traded company, not Elon Musk's personal piggybank

But Musk has constructed a board of directors, including his brother and many of his closest friends, who are willing to do whatever he wants

And now Musk is using X to convince shareholders to rubberstamp a $50 billion payday that a Delaware judge has already ruled is excessive

But that's not enough.

Even if shareholders agree, Musk wants tens of billions more, or he'll take his ball and go home.

The latest outrage on the right is Biden's update to Title IX regulations, which expand non-discrimination protections on campus to LGBTQ people.

The legal basis for this expansion is a Supreme Court decision authored by noted leftist... Justice Neil Gorsuch

.@cocacola, as part of its "racial equality plan," pledged it would donate $0 from its corporate PAC to "candidates who make egregious or inflammatory remarks in the equality and inclusion area."

But in the last year, @CocaCola has donated $5,000 to Congressman Mike Collins (R-GA)

Last week, Collins PRAISED a group of University of Mississippi students harassing a black female protester, including a student who was imitating a monkey.

@CocaCola is ignoring requests for comment

Other companies financially backing Collins' reelection include:

@att

In his 2024 campaign, Trump is pitting native-born Americans against immigrants

Trump tells his crowds that immigrants are going to take their jobs and reduce their wages

New data, however, confirms that these claims are false

Immigrants are saving the US economy

When Trump ran in 2016, he pledged to appoint Supreme Court justices who would overturn Roe v. Wade

And that's exactly what he did.

Now, Trump is describing what abortion policy will look like if he wins in 2024.

We should probably pay attention.

Trump, who nicknamed his opponent “Sleepy Joe,” cannot keep his eyes open during his own criminal trial

realjuddlegum, to random

Perhaps THE central political attack leveled against Biden by Trump and his allies is that there is a "migrant crime wave."

Trump calls it "Biden's Border Bloodbath"

This is a deception that is flatly contradicted by actual crime data.
