The changes and mass firings at CBS Sixty Minutes leaves its future success in flux. Did it need an update or is it President Trump gaining influence over editorial content in major media? Scott Pelley’s story and contractual questions here.

While President Trump says he doesn’t care about the Kennedy Center, the court fight continues. While his AG says the Jan 6 slush fund is dead, the court fight continues. Who is telling the truth and who is lying?

Democrats are trying to define their core issues going forward. They can’t afford to be just anti-Trump anymore. What issue will define the party? Will it be the cost of living? Will it be health care? Will it be peace? Charismatic candidates?

The US has attacked Iran, and Iran has attacked Middle East bases in response. And while US inflation numbers are still going up, the President says he loves the inflation. Is Trump getting out negotiated?

Iran shot down a US Apache helicopter near the Strait of Hormuz. The US has retaliated. The Pentagon says Israel is spying on the US peace negotiations. Trump gets booed so loudly at Madison Square Garden you can’t hear the National Anthem.

President Trump is saying the MMA stadium being built on the White House front lawn might become permanent. 100 porta potties also adorn the front lawn. This as a lawsuit has been filed to stop the event from happening. Is he trolling us.

President Trump walked off the set of an interview on Meet the Press after tough questions about Iran, Elections, and the fund to pay Jan 6 rioters. As he left he called Kristen Welker “darling”. Disrespectful?

Some former DOGE executives are going to try to bring the same cost and job cutting techniques to the private sector. The startup called Special, plans to use software and AI to eliminate waste. Is it a good thing or should workers be worried?

President Trump has verbally assailed a female reporter again for her personal mannerisms and appearance. He has demeaned women publicly over and over again through the years. At what point will women who have self respect stop supporting him?

Attorney General Blanche says the fund to pay Jan. 6 rioters is not going forward. He says, however, the shield from IRS investigations remains in place. There are huge questions about whether he has immunity going forward as well.

President Trump asks PM Netanyahu if he is f…ing crazy? Both give different responses. And Secretary of State Rubio intimates negotiations over Iran nuclear weapons. Will this give Trump an exit ramp?

Republican backlash has reportedly gotten President Trump to retreat from his $1.8 billion weaponization fund. GOP lawmakers say it is a bad idea and that no funding legislation will pass as long as it is alive. Is Trump really serious?

Key performers are pulling out of the Trump 250 American State Fair. They say it was turning into a partisan event. Trump says he may replace them as he is the biggest attraction in the world..bigger than Elvis was.

Caitlin Clark and Victor Wembanyama are catching NBA and WNBA heat for skipping post game interviews. Clark is also being accused of flopping on a regular basis. Has officiating gotten bad, or are they becoming prima donnas?

Two court losses for President Trump. An order to stop any move to distribute funds under his $1.8 billion dollar IRS settlement. And a judge orders his name off the Kennedy Center. Trump says it can go back to Congress.

60 MINUTES has a new executive producer. He is from outside the industry. He says he has some interesting ideas for changes. CBS still has lingering questions about its chief and ties to Donald Trump. Is this an update or a dent in freedom of the press?

President Trump says he is no hurry to get an Iran deal before the midterms. He says Iran is negotiation on fumes because of inflation. Note: there is US inflation as well. He repeats the only thing that matters is nuclear weapons. Will we wind up where he destroyed the Iran nuclear deal?

The US is making a move back to nuclear energy. It plans to give decommissioned nuclear warheads to start-ups to process into uranium for power plants. This, at the same time it is cutting back on regulation. Is this a good idea?

President Trump went into the weekend saying an Iran deal is largely negotiated. But now he has added another demand, that Arab states sign on to the Abraham Accords. Iran says it is hard to negotiate when demands keep changing. What is Trump really doing?

Memorial Day Weekend. Time to remember those service members we have lost. But also those now serving, and those who have served and need more help. President Trump doesn’t seem to be very respectful, or is he?

President Trump says peace in Iran has been largely negotiated. The Straight of Hormuz is mentioned, not nuclear weapons. Iran says it looks like a 30-60 day window to finalize that. Can we trust either side at this point to tell the truth?

President Trump made a speech billed today as economic. It turned out to be a list of his accomplishments. We fact checked. Promises made, promises broken?

Meta has fired 10% of its workforce. Remember when it said AI wouldn’t cost jobs? It’s not just the 8,000 at Meta but it’s happening elsewhere as well. Is the Tech sector in full restructure mode? Who can we believe anymore?

President Trump’s success in defeating GOP Senate adversaries may come back to bit him in the butt. There is a growing number, Yolo Caucus, who oppose a number of his desires. Epstein files one of them. Will we now see them?

VP Vance says Iran cannot have a nuclear weapon because it would have a domino effect and start a weapons race. President Trump filing precludes the IRS from anymore investigation of Trump tax returns. Is this crazy?
