BASH AND O’DONNELL WORK FOR THE ELLISONS

CBS “News” is already a right-wing mouthpiece travesty; CNN is about to become one. You can thank the Ellisons for that. Bash, O’Donnell, and their ilk know exactly who their paymasters are and who they have to please. Bash was probably auditioning for her continued employment at CNN.

Apparently, the Ellisons don’t even care how much money they lose by destroying these stations; at all costs, they prefer that they become propaganda outlets.

THE SS DIDN’T TELL TRUMP TO GET DOWN

as he claims. The 79-year-old tripped and fell and was helped to his feet by the SS agents.

CORPORATE “NEWS” MEDIA IMMEDIATELY STARTS FALLING IN LINE

Trump tries to incite violence every day, flinging unspeakable ad hominem attacks at journalists and recycling Hitler’s line that they are “the enemy of the people.”

Trump pardons and rewards the domestic terrorists of January 6.

And yet Dana Bash has the unmitigated gall to suggest to Rep. Raskin that it is the Democrats’ rhetoric that is inflammatory.

And why does Norah O’Donnell remain silent when Trump tells her that he’s been exonerated in the Epstein files? Why does she feel the need to convey a deep, undying gratitude the White House Correspondents feel for his presence at their event? Just as he was about to deliver his latest tirade against the journalistic profession.

These are actors impersonating journalists.

ADDRESS YOUR SECURITY FAILURES, TRUMP

instead of trying to inflict your monstrous ballroom on the hallowed White House grounds.

TRUMP WASTES NO TIME IN EXPLOITING THE INCIDENT

No, Pres. Trump, possible security failures at the Washington Hilton and perhaps by your own security detail do not justify your monstrous, garish, corruptly-funded ballroom.

Is Trump suggesting that presidents would now no longer leave the White House after the ballroom was built?

Neither Trump nor any Republican is willing to do anything to curb gun violence; in lieu of that, they exploit it.

“LOGIC IS A MENACE AND TRUTH IS THE ENEMY”

Thus speaks Rod Serling introducing the 1961 Twilight Zone episode “The Obsolete Man,” a perfect encapsulation of Trump and his shock troops’ attempt to turn America into a nation of mindlessly obedient fascist foot soldiers.

“The Obsolete Man” dramatizes the Kafka-like prosecution of a librarian by a fascist tribunal. Unlike American fascists, however, this is not a Christian theocracy but a Societ-style atheistic one. All extremes meet.

A clip is included in Kim A. Snyder’s “The Librarians,” the must-see documentary chronicling library professionals who firewall against MAGA’s push to install censorship in our public schools.

In order for Trump’s fascism to succeed, tolerance and critical thinking must be expunged. American children must be become ignorant hate-ridden bigots.

WHITE HOUSE CORRESPONDENTS DINNER NOW A VANITY EVENT FOR TRUMP

Unlike prior years, there won’t be a comedian emceeing tonight, in order to protect man/infant Trump’s paper-thin skin.

Any journalist with integrity would boycott this travesty.

SO WHAT ELSE IS NEW?

White House correspondents as well as Donald Trump are planning to make fools of themselves Saturday night, when Trump visits their annual dinner. Naturally, he won’t be a participant in their yearly comic rites, the way other presidents have been in the past. Instead he’s going to deliver them a tongue lashing for the unforgivable sin (in Trumpworld )of acknowledging the existence of facts.

Meanwhile, CBS has invited “Secretary of War Crimes” Hegseth to sit at their executive table. “Many, including journalists who work at CBS, are calling this invitation distasteful, given Hegseth’s attacks on truth, the First Amendment, and journalism,” writes Danaka Katovich at Common Dreams.

There is no degree of degradation to which the Ellisons will not subject CBS “News.”

The Correspondents’ dinner is shaping. up to be a debacle.

FOX “NEWS” MAKES IT A POINT TO HIRE THE WORST PEOPLE

Because they will–so long as a lot of cash is waved at them–have no compunction about spouting the seditious lies platformed by the network on a nightly basis.

But it seems to me that Fox alum Hegseth’s criminal psychosis has gotten much more pronounced since he failed upward to become Secretary of Defense.

TALLULAH WOULD WANT ME TO ATTEND

Yes, I will be checking out the Roundabout’s revival of Noel Coward’s “Fallen Angels,” premiered by Tallulah and Edna Best 101 years ago in London. I’m glad, too, that the originally-Selwyn Theatre now occupied by Roundabout is no longer named after American Airlines but instead the late Todd Haimes, formerly Roundabout’s artistic director.

I give a nifty analysis of the play in “Tallulah!”

And Tallulah told a funny story about Winston Churchill and “Fallen Angels” when she was mystery guest on TV’s “What’s My Line” in 1965.
