Politico’s Playbook co-author Dasha Burns joined HBO’s Bill Maher on Friday’s episode of Real Time to discuss the FAA issuing a nationwide ground stop order and placed the blame for the incident at the feet of Secretary of Transportation Sean Duffy, despite him spending the last two years urging Congress to fund air traffic control modernization efforts.

LaMonica McIver (D-NJ) won reelection despite her indictment on federal charges of assaulting, resisting, impeding and interfering with federal officers at an ICE immigration detention facility in May 2025, and faces possible trial.

CNN Explained Duffy’s ATC Revamp Push Before Nighttime Briefing
Before the nighttime press briefing after the FAA ground stoppage crossed all American airspace on Friday, CNN analysts actually, perhaps unknowingly, predicted a major topic of the briefing by Secretary Sean Duffy and Secretary Markwayne Mullin.

Whoopi Wants Democrats Quiet, Maddow Wants Them to ‘Have a Big Fight’

The View Thinks the Show Is ‘Harder to Do’ Than Special Forces Fitness
If there’s one thing you’ll learn from watching The View every day, it’s that the cast are detached from reality. During Friday’s episode, former conservative co-host Candace Cameron Bure returned to reminisce and promote her victory in latest season of Special Forces: World’s Toughest Test. But in hearing about some of the physically demanding activists Bure was put though, a couple of the…
It's Real: NPR’s Code Switch Podcast on ‘Why Fascists Love ‘Fitness’’
The headline above is not exaggerated for effect; it’s how NPR’s “Code Switch” podcast introduced the episode: "Why fascists love “fitness." The online introduction to the October 16 episode read: “Right-wing ideology has crept into gyms across the country. Is this a new phenomenon, or is the very idea of "fitness" ripe for politicization? Is our idea of fitness inherently fascist? We find out…
ICYMI: Big Changes Coming to CBS’s ‘Face the Nation’ (Except the Host)
Status’s Oliver Darcy published a special edition of his newsletter Wednesday afternoon, revealing that CBS’s Face the Nation, hosted by Margaret Brennan, who’s become a meme on the right in the last two years, is losing both its senior executive producer and executive producer, but keeping Brennan.

The PBS News Hour brought on Sen.-elect Abdul El-Sayed on Thursday night for the DEI occasion of the first Muslim PBS anchor to interview the first Muslim elected to the Senate.

The Ratchet Only Ever Tightens
Every three years, the committees that write America’s model building codes sit down and rewrite them. Every three years, the codes get longer. I have yet to find the cycle in which they took out more than they put in. Regulation works like a ratchet. Each click tightens. Nothing ever gets loosened up. Every individual requirement sounds reasonable on its own, e.g., thicker insulation, another…
CNN's Cardona Says Voters Gave Trump The 'Middle Finger' Over Race
On Wednesday, Scott Colom was declared the winner of the Mississippi Senate race, becoming the state’s first black Senator since Reconstruction, adding to the blue tsunami, and becoming the first Democrat to win election to a Mississippi U.S. Senate seat since 1982. Thursday morning, as the left wing media celebrated, some claimed Colom overcame voter suppression, and others took it a step…
CNN's Seawright: GOP Trying to 'Exterminate' Black Representation
Antjuan Seawright has become CNN’s high priest of hyperbole. On Wednesday’s CNN This Morning, we caught the Democratic strategist branding Stephen Miller a “full-blooded racist extremist.” On Thursday’s edition of the show, he reached for language that was even more inflammatory, accusing Republican congressional map-drawers of racially gerrymandering “for the purpose of exterminating and…
