No ads, no remuneration. Die Gedanken sind wirklich frei. The tyrant "has desires which he is utterly unable to satisfy, and has more wants than any one, and is truly poor, if you know how to inspect the whole soul of him: all his life long he is beset with fear and is full of convulsions, and distractions, even as the State which he resembles."

I wonder if even she, for that fleeting moment, thought the whole thing was cringe, too
This video which she posted on the 12th, however, just two days after the assassination, was itself pretty cringe. The video appears to have been edited since then. The reporter quotes what she said in the unedited version, which I remember.

It's pretty wild how they don't see that their guy is the leader of a heartless America
A president for all the people, the bi-partisanly hateful public!
So Trump's border czar took a bribe last fall in an FBI sting operation, a paper bag with $50k cash in it
The Trump Department of Injustice dropped the case.
So where's the money then? In Bob Menendez' closet?

This is risible propaganda posing as news from The Hill, which is the same Nexstar which pulled Kimmel's show
Is DePauw University also a subsidiary of Nexstar?
And how much was this guy paid to write this?
Kimmel's Ratings in Steep Decline, ABC Looked for Way Out
Kimmel isn't some dummy who didn't know he would be likely headed out the door very soon anyway.
He himself said as much already in February 2024, long before any of this Charlie Kirk business happened:
On February 21, 2024, Kimmel hinted that he may not renew his contract for further seasons after his current contract expires in May 2026 in an interview with the Los Angeles Times, stating that "I think this is my final contract, I hate to even say it, because everyone's laughing at me now — each time I think that, and then it turns out to be not the case. I still have a little more than two years left on my contract, and that seems pretty good, that seems like enough."[22][23]
Tyrant Trump and his FCC want to cancel comedic speech over the public airwaves which 75,019,682 people who didn't vote for him find funny
Don't the PUBLIC airwaves have to serve them, too?
... Through this public spectrum for radio and TV stations, the federal agency has the right to regulate broadcasting and requires each network “by law to operate its station in the ‘public interest, convenience and necessity.’ Generally, this means it must air programming that is responsive to the needs and problems of its local community of license,” according to the FCC website. ...
Typically, the discussion of whether a station violated the FCC’s guidelines centers around children’s programming, a cut to news content, or obscenity — such as Janet Jackson’s wardrobe malfunction during the Super Bowl in 2004. ...

I keep hearing that gold is soaring because of continued dollar weakness lol
On the contrary, gold has risen despite continued dollar strength.
The enormous gains for gold in 2024 and 2025 are not explained by a round trip in the dollar index from 120 to 129 and back again. That's just a little side show in the bigger picture of dollar strength.
The dollar index has made steady progress out of the pit of despair at 85.46 in July 2011 under Barack Obama, the enemy of fossil fuels, to a place of relative strength today averaging above 120 in 2022 and 2023, 123 in 2024, and 125 in the first half of 2025.
Speaking of a weak dollar in this context is laughable.
Maybe the dollar is so strong again because the United States has become a net exporter of oil. The 1975 ban on oil exports was lifted in December 2015. Net imports of oil went negative for the first time since 1950 in 2020.
Gold is probably so strong in part because of increasing debt globally, which like rising prosperity helps drive demand for it as a hedge. Extreme poverty gripped half the world in 1950 but by 2020 it afflicts just 10%. Meanwhile gold production has nearly tripled over the period.
As a percentage of global GDP, global debt has gone from just above 100% of global GDP in 1980 to a whopping 235% of global GDP in 2024.

Trump is The Decider Bush 43, Obama, and Biden wrapped into one: junking due process, designating people terrorists without evidence and ignoring the evidence when they are, censoring speech, and generally making a mockery of the rule of law

FOMC lowers the Funds Rate 0.25 to 4.25 on a vote of 11-1
Only "one official did not want any cuts, including Wednesday’s."
Story here.
Biden gutted the Strategic Petroleum Reserve by 200k barrels over 12 months in 2022, Trump's been in office 8 months and has done BUPKIS to refill it
Spot WTI averaged nearly $95/barrel in 2022.
In 1H2025 it averaged $68.
The price fell again in August to an average just under $65, too.
Trump could be refilling at cheap prices, but he's too busy with nonsense.
