Not by violence, not by the abuse of governmental power, nor by acts of corporate cowardice," said the Writers Guild of America West and East on Wednesday night, not long after...

Statement from @DAGToddBlanche : This Department of Justice does not shy away from uncomfortable truths, nor from the responsibility to pursue justice wherever the facts may lead. The joint statement by the DOJ and FBI of July 6 remains as accurate today as it was when it was written. Namely, that in the recent thorough review of the files maintained by the FBI in the Epstein case, no evidence was uncovered that could predicate an investigation against uncharged third parties. President Trump has told us to release all credible evidence. If Ghislane Maxwell has information about anyone who has committed...

MSNBC’s revamped primetime and weekend programming is already faltering, with dismal ratings, sharp audience drop-offs, and a primetime collapse from one of the network’s most promoted new faces. What was meant to signal a new chapter beyond Rachel Maddow’s dominance has instead exposed serious trouble. In a bid to reshape its identity amid changing leadership and a shifting cable news landscape, MSNBC launched several new shows: The Weekend, The Weekend: Primetime, and The Weeknight. But if the early ratings are any indication, viewers are not impressed. Take The Weekend, for example. Debuting at 7 a.m. on Saturday with hosts Jonathan...
