    Funny how Don-the-Con constantly praised how he would be a President of "law and Order." Yet, he doesn't even respect our criminal justice system.

    I thought you should know "The walls are closing in" is the headline that has become a joke in MAGA circles. Tip toeing around traitors and domestic terrorists never ends well and we are about to find out.

    The "walls maybe closing in" but they will never be 'Prison Walls' because there is not enough courage in the whole of America to lock up this criminal.

    No disparage intended, however it is long observed that the criminal is really a very stupid individual.

    There's absolutely nothing intelligent about this criminal.

    He does, indeed, exaggerate as DOES an EXTREME CRIMINAL .

    Here's an idea, if Trump had followed the rules and the laws, this wouldn't be an issue in the first place. He won't testify, or he will take the fifth because he knows he is guilty. Businesses all over our country have to follow the laws, and he is no different.

    Can I just say, when I heard and saw Trump mocking a Journalist with a Disability I felt sick that any human being could do that. I then heard no end of mocking and degrading of people while Trump bragged about his wealth during his 4 years as a pretend president, whom the World laughed at because of his ignorance and lack of any humanity, empathy, knowledge or values. So I am pleased to see Karma has caught this vile man and he will pay for his crimes.

    What an evil partisan news propaganda machine. It would be a true blessing if MSNBC were only about the news, but their reporting has always been pro democrat and extreme far left. I'm not at all saying that what they are reporting isn't true, but it is solely orientated to protect and promote far left agendas and the agents who physically push them onto a rejecting society.

    Yes – at this point, he’s damned if he does testify and damned if he doesn’t. But let’s not forget this is for one reason only – because he’s so damned guilty of everything he’s been charged with. 😔
    The USA needs to put this man behind bars before he ends it as we know it. 🔐

    He did these things for decades, and should be held accountable; but why were the authorities, both state and federal including the IRS, asleep at the wheel for all these years?

Nicolle and Aaron Sorkin: This is Trump’s ‘ultimate mind f***’

Published

on

By



Aaron Sorkin wasn’t planning to make another movie about Facebook — until he met a whistleblower whose story he felt compelled to tell. In an expansive conversation with Nicolle Wallace, the Oscar- and Emmy-winning writer and director discusses his new film, The Social Reckoning, and the extraordinary power Mark Zuckerberg and Facebook wield over nearly 3 billion people — and the costly decisions that have shaped the platform’s impact on our lives, our politics and our democracy.
A follow-up to 2010’s The Social Network, Sorkin’s new film examines Facebook in the age of Trump, telling the story of whistleblower Frances Haugen’s decision to expose internal documents detailing misinformation and potential harms, while exploring an older Zuckerberg confronting the consequences of the technology he created. Sorkin explains why he chose to release the film ahead of the midterm elections and why he believes there is still room for optimism — if we are willing to act.

Wallace and Sorkin explore Zuckerberg’s immense influence, the decisions surrounding Facebook on January 6, the people inside the company who knew what was happening and remained silent, and why Wallace sees Zuckerberg as “bubble wrapped from reality.” They discuss the complicated empathy the film invites audiences to feel for Zuckerberg — and how that empathy can coexist with accountability for decisions that affect billions. Sorkin also shares the story of Zuckerberg’s former consigliere and their falling out, his reaction to Jeremy Strong’s portrayal of Zuckerberg (whom Sorkin calls “the best American actor under 50 years old”), and Facebook’s efforts to obtain the film’s script before its release. He reveals how the filmmakers prepared for potential legal challenges, including the threat of a lawsuit.

The conversation also examines Trump’s relationship with Zuckerberg, the former president’s attacks on the media despite his apparent appetite for attention from credible news organizations, and the essential role investigative journalism plays in holding powerful people and institutions accountable. Wallace and Sorkin discuss why Congress and the law continue to lag behind rapidly advancing technology, the consequences of leaving that power unchecked, and why the stakes for democracy could hardly be higher.

And in a moment that connects Sorkin’s celebrated work across generations, the conversation turns to A Few Good Men, Hegseth’s “illegal order” and the enduring importance of questioning authority. Wallace, who was inspired by Allison Janney’s portrayal of White House Press Secretary C.J. Cregg on The West Wing to imagine a future for herself in the White House, joins Sorkin in reflecting on the responsibilities of the press, the dangers of unchecked power and the choices that define our political moment.

From Facebook’s influence over billions of lives to Trump, whistleblowers, investigative journalism and the future of American democracy, Sorkin’s message is clear: We need to take democracy more seriously.
