“Members of President-elect Donald Trump’s transition team have told advisers they plan to make a federal framework for fully self-driving vehicles one of the Transportation Department’s priorities,“ Bloomberg reports. “If new rules enable cars without human controls, that would directly benefit Elon Musk, the Tesla Inc. chief executive officer and Trump mega-donor who has become a powerful fixture in the president-elect’s inner circle.

  • Bannon And Flynn ‘100% Serious’ MSNBC Should Face Criminal Charges
    Crooks and Liars, Sunday - 11/17/2024 - 10:36 AM

    Yes, it’s laughable that two sleazebags without a shred of legal authority - ex-con and current criminal defendant Steve Bannon and pardoned Russia-pal Mike Flynn - should be threatening anybody or anything with criminal prosecution. But this is what we are facing in a second Trump term. Trump’s assault on the First Amendment began before the election with attempts to blackmail several media outlets into only favorable coverage. Obviously, these two creeps are all in on the fascism. On Bannon’s online show, he said he is “100% serious” that MSNBC should face criminal investigation.

  • Fox Wants Hegseth To Sue Former NAACP Lawyer Over White Supremacist Accusation
    Crooks and Liars, Sunday - 11/17/2024 - 10:35 AM

    Pete Hegseth's Fox & Friends Weekend cohosts are very upset that former NAACP lawyer Sherrilyn Ifill called Hegseth a white supremacist on MSNBC. As we and others have already discussed, there's a long list of reasons why Fox host Pete Hegseth is completely unqualified to serve as Defense Secretary, the accusations of sexual misconduct, his inexperience, the ties to Christian nationalism and overt racism just being a few of them. Here are Hegseth's buddies, Will Cain, Rachel Campos-Duffy and Joey Jones coming to Hegseth's defense this Saturday, and insisting Hegseth should sue Ifill for defamation, along with MSNBC, which should come as a surprise to no one, since the race-baiting is a feature and not a bug over on Fox "news." CAIN: The attacks are coming fast and furious and ugly and defamatory.

    On Friday, a Trump-appointed Judge in Texas struck down a new rule from the Biden administration that would have extended overtime protections to millions of workers. Anyone connected to Trump will try to obliterate anything good President Joe Biden has done for the working class. Judge Jordan just kneecapped the regulation that affects four million workers.

    47's minions want to make it clear: He's not planning to build a brand new network of “camps” to house the undocumented immigrants he vowed to round up in what he claims will be “the largest deportation” operation in the “history of our country.” Think of them as spas -- or at least, airport lounges!
