I love how Stelter has Rather on thinking that Dan helps bolster the seriousness and sanctity of journalism.

Kimmel was funny back in The Man Show days. I also admit to watching the whole girls on trampolines video. *shrug* Sue me.

Do these morons really believe that _we believe_ that spending $1T will cost nothing? Maybe I'm asking the wrong question. Better question might be, are there people who really believe it? (probably)

OR is it okay to tax the ever-living $#!+ out of everyone just to get a few goodies to the Favored Voter in Grift as long as it's for *checks notes* re-election? (of course it is)

The high point of Jimmy Kimmel's career was when (at the height of the "NBC screwing Conan out of the Tonight Show" controversy) he did his show as Jay Leno:

Note that it wasn't just the monologue or one bit - he did an entire show, hilariously and maliciously in-character, as Leno.

On Brian Williams, I've always admired how the Brits just call their news anchors "newsreaders" and don't make any particular fuss about them being "the conscience of a nation" or whatever. They're just guys who read the news. But they're almost all actually great broadcasters.

Kamala is the embodiment of Identity Politics. The DEMS didn't vote for her. Zero delegates because she never made it to 2020. Yet there's always someone out there on the Left who will virtue signal by accusing others (even fellow Democrats!) as "racist". She was and is poor: as a candidate, as VP. No original thoughts, no intellectual agility and she has a crummy French accent.

Brian Williams proves karmic justice is sometimes lacking.

The press coverage of the Rittenhouse trial has not been truthful. This is a dumpster fire of a prosecution. The ADA just today, commented on R's post-Miranda silence! The judge knew the weasel ADA was looking to provoke a mistrial and the judge didn't bite. Yet there is case law that if the mistrial is due to prosecutorial misconduct, the mistrial results in a dismissal is with prejudice, meaning no retrial. Oh, and the first person shot and killed--Rosenbaum--had his hand either on the barrel of Rittenhouse's gun or within 12", per the STATE'S Coroner. The only worry is jury intimidation. I highly recommend the video excerpts from Legal Insurrection. Chirafisi's Cross of Gaige Grosskreutz was magnificent.
