Deep dives
The Charges Against Trump in Georgia Indictment
The recent charges against former President Trump and political figures in Georgia are being labeled as flimsy and preposterous. Trump is accused of tweeting about a TV show and asking for an elected official's phone number. The indictment is seen as an attempt to criminalize conservative politics and suppress political dissent.
Misrepresentation of Trump's Words in Georgia Phone Call
Contrary to media claims, Trump did not tell the Georgia Secretary of State to 'find me the votes' in the phone call. Instead, he expressed concerns about the election, mentioned allegations of ballot corruption, and urged the Secretary to report any findings. The transcript does not support the narrative that Trump was demanding illegal actions.
Decline of Cable TV Viewership
Cable TV viewership in the US has hit an all-time low, with broadcast and cable share dropping below 50% for the first time. YouTube and Netflix now account for a record 38.7% of total TV usage. This shift in viewership reflects the changing media landscape and the decline of traditional cable networks.
The Importance of Priorities in Cultural Figures
Oliver Anthony, the singer behind the viral song 'The Rich Man from Richmond', starts his show by reading a Bible passage, demonstrating a focus on faith and glorifying God. This serves as a reminder that cultural figures should strive for a purpose beyond personal gain or fame.
Democrats indict Donald Trump for recommending a TV show on Twitter, a jury awards a woman $1.2 billion from her ex-boyfriend over revenge porn, and Ukraine's transvestite American spokesman for the military is real.
