CNN roasted over debate production, format: 'A disservice to serious people'

CNN roasted over debate production, format: 'A disservice to serious people'
CNN faced backlash for its first primary debate of the 2020 campaign season, with members of the media comparing its production to a sporting event or movie trailer and others lamenting the time spent to kick off the event.


"I don't understand why anybody goes to all the trouble of running for President of the United States just to talk about what we really can't do and shouldn't fight for.” - Elizabeth Warren at last night's debate

Barron Trump's Getting A Pony!
Mongolian President Battulga Khaltmaa will visit the White House on Wednesday, seeking help from President Donald Trump on trade and military deals - and possibly a name for the horse his government has symbolically gifted to Trump’s 13-year-old son, Barron.

As Trump tweets attacks at Don Lemon and CNN, remember that explosive devices were mailed to CNN just last year by a man who attorneys say grew paranoid, anxious and isolated, latching onto Trump in the months before he sent the bombs.- Kyle Griffin, MSNBC


The National Cathedral Shames Trump. The National Cathedral!
The escalation of racialized rhetoric from the President of the United States has evoked responses from all sides of the political spectrum. On one side, African American leaders have led the way in rightfully expressing outrage. On the other, those aligned with the President seek to downplay the racial overtones of his attacks, or remain silent.
As faith leaders who serve at Washington National Cathedral ¬– the sacred space where America gathers at moments of national significance – we feel compelled to ask: After two years of President Trump’s words and actions, when will Americans have enough?






Mitch McConnell doesn’t like the moniker #MoscowMitch or being called a #RussianAsset.  Well, Mitch, if the shoe fits, wear it!  Or pass some legislation that will make our elections SAFE from foreign interference. It’s a no-brainer!  Unless you’re afraid it’ll touch your MONEY! - Bette Midler





Today would be a good day for Mitch McConnell to allow the Senate to vote on any of the bipartisan bills we’ve passed in the House. Election security, protecting people w/pre-existing conditions, gun violence prevention, climate action, LGBTQ equality, etc. Any of them. - Rep. Mike Levin

We can put people in space but can’t create a pain medication that isn’t addictive.


While I applaud the effort, it still doesn’t actually fix the problem. Big pharma needs their greed placed in check.
The Trump administration said Wednesday it will create a pathway allowing Americans to legally and safely import lower-cost prescription drugs from Canada for the first time, reversing years of opposition from federal health authorities amid a public outcry over high prices for life-sustaining medications.

The assassination of Jamal Khashoggi was no aberration. A Vanity Fair investigation reveals how Saudi Arabia attempts to abduct, repatriate—and sometimes murder—citizens it regards as enemies of the state.


Gilroy police said they engaged the shooter within one minute. In that time, he shot 16 people, killing a 6-year-old boy and a 13-year-old girl. That's the power of automatic weapons. There is NO scenario where a troubled 19-yr-old should be able to buy a weapon of war. - Jennifer Hayden tweet

“I made my way about a mile or so into Badwater Basin around 7:00 p.m., looking for these interesting salt polygons. The temperatures were still well over 100 degrees and the winds were blowing like crazy. Clouds had been hanging around Death Valley all day so I knew there was a good chance for a nice sunset, but I wasn’t expecting anything like this. As the sun started to set behind the distant mountains the sky exploded with colors I’ve never seen at sunset. I was so beautiful that I was having a hard time even taking pictures. Eventually I just had to stop, smile and take it all in.” Photo courtesy of Brandon Moore.
