A black producer laid off from CBS News this week has accused the company of racism by saying that all of his fired fellow colleagues were 'people of color.' Trey Sherman made the claim in a viral video posted to his TikTok account Wednesday, after CBS News' parent company announced sweeping layoffs across the organization. Sherman had worked for the now-cancelled 'CBS Evening News+' since February, as well as the network's just-eliminated Race and Culture Unit. 'Every person who gets to stay and will be relocated within the company is a white person.' Sherman then recounted a meeting he said

When you use skin color and chromosomes as criteria for filling positions of trust, as opposed to filling those positions with the best people regardless of skin color or chromosomes, you will not, unless by accident, get the best people for the job. No public figure in recent memory exemplifies this maxim more than Supreme Court Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson. But that does not even tell half of the story. (Snip) “Badly outnumbered, seated for the long haul of life tenure, Justices Kagan and Jackson in particular are divided on the best approach to jobs in which they are more
Rep. Ilhan Omar, D-Minn., criticized Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer, D-N.Y., on Thursday for not endorsing the Democrats’ New York City mayoral candidate Zohran Mamdan. Since he became the nominee, the Democratic Party has been embroiled in controversy over how to handle Mamdani’s rise due to his socialist policies and far-left views. (Snip) When asked whether religion plays a role at all, Omar replied, "Well, the tsunami of the anti-Muslim attacks that we are seeing is deeply concerning. And I would hope that the Democratic leader in the Senate would recognize that and would offer support not just to Mamdani
New York City mayoral favorite Zohran Mamdani (D) bashed both the cops and Israel in a wild, conspiratorial clip unearthed on X. (Snip) “For anyone to care about these issues, we have to make them [inaudible],” he continued. “We have to make clear that when the boot of the NYPD is on your neck, it’s been laced by the ID F.” “We are in a country where those connections abound. Especially in New York City, you have so many opportunities to make clear the ways in which that struggle over there is tied to capitalist interests over here,” added Mamdani.
Kamala Harris is ready for her comeback! That’s right, the candidate who has shown no particular talent for winning national presidential elections, or even achieving the nomination of her own party via democratic means, is very likely going to run again, in 2028. She said as much in a recent interview with the BBC. (Snip) What was true in the last election cycle, and in 2019, remains true now: Kamala Harris is a very, very weak candidate for the Democratic Party. When she pursued the presidency in 2019, her campaign faltered badly from the start: she demonstrated no real ability

PORTLAND, Maine — The newly hired campaign manager for U.S. Senate candidate Graham Platner is stepping down less than a week after he started working for the Maine oyster farmer and military veteran. In a statement shared with Maine's Total Coverage, Kevin Brown said he began managing Platner's campaign on Oct. 21 and found out just three days later that he and his wife have a baby on the way. (Snip) Platner's team provided video to "Pod Save America," a political podcast hosted by former aides to former President Barack Obama, which showed Platner had a skull-and-crossbones tattoo on his chest

WASHINGTON — The country’s largest union representing federal workers is calling for lawmakers to pass a short-term spending measure to immediately end the government shutdown, urging Democrats to abandon their current position and join Republicans in supporting a stopgap solution. (Snip) The statement could increase pressure on Democrats to budge from their stance. Senate Democrats have insisted that they won’t vote to reopen the government without a commitment from Republicans and President Donald Trump on extending health care subsidies through the Affordable Care Act, which are set to expire at the end of the year. Without them, health insurance premiums
The Instagram photos show Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz and his daughter Hope on a sunny autumn Sunday after they finished a 10-mile race during the Twin Cities Marathon weekend. The father-daughter duo trotted over cracked asphalt in Minneapolis-St. Paul on Oct. 5, race bibs pasted at his stomach and her right thigh. (Snip) Since the election, Hope Walz has gained half a million TikTok followers posting from her home in Bozeman, Montana. She courts Gen Z women – Harris won young women by a lesser margin than Biden in 2020 – with her takes on pop culture and politics. Trump's electoral victory
LOS ANGELES -- A new report from business review company Yelp gives Los Angeles the top spot for being the most rat-infested city in the United States. "Los Angeles earned the unenviable title of America's #1 rodent hotspot, with more Yelp searches for rodent services than any other city. Los Angeles's densely populated neighborhoods create the perfect hiding spots for these tiny trespassers, especially as drought conditions drive wildlife closer to homes in search of food and water," Yelp said in its Fall Infestation Index report. San Francisco came in at number two, while New York, which has achieved social media
Target, which has been struggling with sales in recent years, is eliminating 1,800 roles or about 8% of the company’s global HQ team, in a restructuring aimed to reduce “layers and overlapping work,” according to a memo seen by ABC News. The Minneapolis-based company is in the middle of a CEO transition with incoming chief executive Michael Fiddelke, a company veteran who will take the top job in February, and has started to implement his vision. "The truth is, the complexity we’ve created over time has been holding us back. Too many layers and overlapping work have slowed decisions, making

Political newcomer Graham Platner has a massive lead over Gov. Janet Mills in the first poll of Democratic primary voters in Maine's closely watched race for the Senate. The poll by the University of New Hampshire Survey Center was conducted as controversy was swirling around statements Platner made online years ago. The poll shows that 58% of likely Democratic primary voters favor Platner. Janet Mills, Maine's two-term governor, who was recruited by national party leaders, was polling at just 24%. None of the other candidates in the crowded field received more than 1%. Platner is an oysterman and Marine Corps

New York's infamous crime families are making headlines again. As the Oct. 23 arrests and indictments allegedly show in stunning detail, the old-school Italian mafia – La Cosa Nostra with its loyalty oaths, nicknames and lucrative gambling rackets – haven't gone away. (Snip) Patel − and the charging documents − detailed how mafia members used high-tech tools, along with their old-fashioned racketeering schemes, to help orchestrate major aspects of the criminal operation. "Not only did we crack into the fraud that these perpetrators committed on the grand stage of the NBA, but we also entered and executed a system of

"Indiana Jones" star Harrison Ford told The Guardian on Friday that he doesn't "know of a greater criminal in history" than President Donald Trump, criticizing him for failing to address climate change.
Ford said to The Guardian that Trump "doesn’t have any policies, he has whims. It scares the s--- out of me. The ignorance, the hubris, the lies, the perfidy. [Trump] knows better, but he’s an instrument of the status quo, and he’s making money, hand over fist, while the world goes to hell in a handbasket."
"It's unbelievable," he added. "I don’t know of a greater criminal in history."
Nearly one decade after leaving the White House, Michelle Obama is ready to talk about her fashion choices and the attention placed on her appearance during her eight years as first lady. The former first lady sat down with "Good Morning America" co-anchor Robin Roberts ahead of the release of her new book, "The Look," an in-depth and personal look at her White House style. In the book, Obama explains for the first time the level of intention she placed on her fashion choices as first lady, and the messages she wanted to send with those choices.

Former President Barack Obama has privately endorsed the mayoral campaign of Zohran Mamdani, a communist, in New York City.
According to The New York Times, Obama called Mamdani for around half an hour, during which time he praised his campaign and offered him political support.
Their report states:
Former President Barack Obama called New York City mayoral candidate Zohran Mamdani on Saturday, praising his campaign and offering to be a “sounding board” into the future.
The private, roughly 30-minute phone call, which has not previously been reported, was described by two people who participated or were briefed immediately on what had been said.
A federal judge blocked President Donald Trump’s efforts to protect election integrity by requiring proof of United States citizenship on voter registration forms, finding that Trump “lacks the authority to direct such changes.”
In a decision by U.S. District Judge Collen Kollar-Kotelly on Friday, Kollar-Kotelly “sided with Democratic and civil rights groups that sued the Trump administration” after the President issued an executive order in March entitled “Preserving and Protecting the Integrity of American Elections,” according to the Associated Press.
Kollar-Kotelly, who was appointed by former President Bill Clinton, claimed in her decision that “the proof-of-citizenship directive is an unconstitutional violation of the separation of powers,”
Michelle Obama really wants you to know she's a victim. That's been the theme for her over the last several years, whether it be during interviews or on her incredibly grating podcast. Most recently, speaking to ABC News "journalist" Gayle King, who is always chosen for these softball sessions for a reason, the former First Lady decried her time in the White House, claiming she and her family were given a "lack of grace" that other presidential families received. [Tweet, video]
KING: "We were all too aware that as the first black couple, we couldn't afford any mistakes."

A Colorado athlete who once vied for a spot on the US Olympic shot put team allegedly stabbed her Uber driver to death, dumping his body in a field — because she felt “cooped up” and wanted to go for a “joy ride,” according to police.
Khayla Dawson, 27, who competed at the USA Olympic Trials last year, is accused of fatally plunging a butcher knife into 38-year-old rideshare driver Jeremy Campbell’s neck before stealing his car and wallet Sunday, according to the El Paso County Sheriff’s Office.

Regrets, Kevin Roberts has a few.
The president of the Heritage Foundation stepped into a maelstrom when he came to the defense of Tucker Carlson this week after Carlson's friendly interview with Nick Fuentes, the 26-year-old white nationalist popular on the far right for his avowedly antisemitic views. It started with a video Roberts posted to X.
“Not as many people as I thought,” he told RealClearPolitics in a Saturday interview, “were ready for a little bit of nuance.”
Roberts told RCP that the backlash has further clarified something that he already believed, namely that antisemitism has become “a much more pronounced problem on part of the right.”

Former Vice President Kamala Harris attacked President Trump in a foul-mouth rant — as she melted down over his White House ballroom renovations.
“Are you f‑‑king kidding me?” Harris raged on Jon Stewart’s “The Weekly Show” podcast on Thursday as she accused Trump of prioritizing the renovations despite the government shutdown threatening the distribution of food aid benefits.
“This guy wants to create a ballroom for his rich friends while completely turning a blind eye to the fact that babies are going to starve when the SNAP benefits end in just hours from now. Come on.”
Judge James Boasberg's chickens may finally be coming home to roost.
The Obama-nominated chief judge of the United States District Court for D.C. now faces impeachment articles that Rep. Brandon Gill (R-Tex.) filed, thanks to explosive revelations surrounding Operation Arctic Frost—a coordinated effort that saw 197 subpoenas unleashed against Republicans in Congress and citizens during the Biden administration.
The specifics make your blood boil. Then-Special Counsel Jack Smith sought Sen. Ted Cruz's communications from AT&T, and Boasberg rubber-stamped the request. But here's where it gets really ugly: Boasberg issued an order explicitly prohibiting AT&T from notifying Cruz that his records were being seized.
On Saturday, Washington DC Mayor Muriel Bowser announced an emergency order, with a city-wide curfew for anyone under 18, beginning Saturday night.
The curfew will go into effect at 11pm Nov. 1, through 6am the next morning, and will continue nightly until Nov. 5. The order gives Metropolitan Police Chief Pamela Smith the power to identify “high risk” areas in the city, where she can begin the curfew as early as 6pm. (image)
The emergency action by the DC Mayor is in response to chaos in the streets in/around the Navy Yard area where five teens were arrested and the National Guard were forced to break up several fights
The crises at the heart of the government shutdown fight in Washington were coming to a head Saturday as the federal food assistance program faced delays and millions of Americans were set to see a dramatic rise in their health insurance bills.
The impacts on basic needs — food and medical care — underscored how the impasse is hitting homes across the United States. Plans by the Trump administration to freeze payments to the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program on Saturday were halted by federal judges, but the delay in payouts will still likely leave millions of people short on their grocery bills.

The Race and Culture division was shuttered so I'm not surprised it was staffed with DEI hires. 2,000 people were axed so I doubt this guy knows the fate of every person who got a pink slip.
