“As columnists we are held to strict standards of factuality and truth, and are expected to have a fundamental understanding of our democracy,” Kabas continued. “McDaniel has proven time and again she adheres to none of those values, and lacks that very basic understanding. |

Megyn Kelly Confronts Ben Shapiro on Candace Owens Ouster and ‘Free Speech’
A week after The Daily Wire parted ways with far-right pundit Candace Owens amid her lengthy public feud with the site’s co-founder Ben Shapiro, Megyn Kelly asked Shapiro if the ouster of the MAGA provocateur was proof that his publication is only about free speech “until it comes to Israel.” Owens’ exit from the right-wing media empire came after months of increasing tension between her and Shapiro over the war in Gaza. The animosity between the two began heating up in November when Shapiro tore into Owens’ “disgraceful” comments on Israel committing “genocide,” prompting her to traffic in antisemitic “dual loyalty” tropes about Shapiro, an Orthodox Jew.

'Not going to be able to sleep tonight': Truth Social boosters panicking as stock plummets
With the value of stock in Trump Media and Technology Group (TMTG) continuing its unceasing slide downward since the technology company went public, supporters of Donald Trump who profess to have invested in the company are increasingly expressing dismay about the collapse on the former president's Truth Social platform. According to a report from the Daily Beast's Noah Kirsch, faith in the troubled company that was reported to have lost millions last year right after the public offering, is in short supply at the same time the former president was telling supporters at Mar-a-Lago that all is well, stating: "We have over $200 million dollars in cash, which is very liquid.” (Raw Story 4/13/24) READ MORE>>>>>

The slate of MAGA Republicans that will be on North Carolina's ballot in November has the potential to be disastrous for the state's economic interests and its business leaders know it. They should use their considerable influence and act now if they want to stop it from happening. From the top of the ticket, where Republican primary voters picked an antisemitic, election-denying, misogynist and transphobic candidate for governor to selecting a home-schooling mom with no education experience for state superintendent, the choices are so concerning that business leaders took the unprecedented step of sounding the alarm. Perhaps most troubling for the fast-growing state, which CNBC ranked No. 1 for business two years in a row, is the nomination of Lieutenant Governor Mark Robinson for the top job. Robinson, an acolyte of former President Donald Trump (who called him "Martin Luther King on steroids"), regularly disparages the LGBTQ community and believes a pregnant woman's body "is not her body anymore." He's made hateful comments about school shooting victims, Jewish people and also normalizes Hitler. If elected, Robinson would be the state's first Black governor but instead of breaking barriers, he is breaking the bounds of decency and humanity. He's an extremist, even by MAGA standards. The state has some recent experience with what happens when intolerance is written into law. If the Chamber and its allies are truly worried about the rightward shift of the state, they should publicly reject MAGA's attempts to roll back progress and get behind moderate Democrat and Republican candidates. --Mary Ellen Klas; Miami Herald; MAGA is taking over North Carolina - unless businesses stop it 3/16/24
