US military used social media in the middle east to help support the US mission and fight ISIS. Elon Musk and his PR flacks blew the lid off that. Does Musk actually support our troops?

I love that Hannity is wearing his sky blue and sunflower yellow tie to express his solidarity with Ukraine. Maybe he’s not such a bad guy after all. :slightly_smiling_face:

I don’t put trust in liars and that is what Hannity is. He has lied numerous times on his show.
Supporting Ukraine is serious business. At least for me it is. I’m never sure about Hannity

“I did not believe it for one second,” Sean Hannity reportedly said in his Dominion deposition.

The NYT:

Mr. Hannity’s disclosure — along with others that emerged from court on Wednesday about what Fox News executives and hosts really believed as their network became one of the loudest megaphones for lies about the 2020 election — is among the strongest evidence yet to emerge publicly that some Fox employees knew that what they were broadcasting was false.

Fox News has denied Dominion’s claims.

I will guarantee you the deposition was recorded for just such denials as this. Roll tape.

How Republicans Received Zelensky

A series of embarrassments and indignities:

  • Donald Trump, Jr., set the tone for the day, tweeting: “Zelensky is basically an ungrateful international welfare queen.”
  • House Republicans were reportedly scarce for Zelensky’s address to a joint session of Congress: 86 out of 213 GOP House members showed up.
  • Reps. Matt Gaetz (R-FL) and Lauren Boebert (R-CO) blew off Capitol police and refused to go through security screening for Zelensky’s speech.

DJTJ is just jealous that he can’t get his hands on all that money. And, for those who wonder how many GQP votes a Democratic SOTH candidate could get, here’s your sign - more than enough. Finally, as I said elsewhere, the fines for blowing off the metal detectors did absolutely nothing to deter. Those will all go away, along with the metal detectors themselves in the first few minutes of the new session. And if a Democrat gets hurt, well, you knew the job was dangerous when you took it (according to the GQP House leadership).

RIP Franco Harris

On a personal note, dear Hubby recounted a tale yesterday of when he was working in the kitchen of a sports bar in the Twin Cities area and Franco Harris came to do some promotional or another. Franco came into the kitchen and greeted every member of the kitchen staff. Dear hubby is not an autograph hound, but he tells me he has Franco’s auto from that visit.

“What emerges is a disturbing picture of FBI agents…”

Now there is a reliable preamble to every article you might care to write about anything involving the FBI.
