This is an indexed score based on news activity. 100 = our permanent historical baseline that is adjusted for weekdays and weekend days. Scores above 100 mean a busier-than-normal news day.

📺 Trump just confirmed another Fox News host to run federal prosecutions while his new cyber director admits he knows nothing about cybersecurity and his NASA chief has zero space experience.

Jeanine Pirro joins fellow Fox personalities Pete Hegseth running the Pentagon, Dan Bongino as FBI deputy director, and Sean Duffy juggling both Transportation and NASA as TV personalities with huge responsibilities.

Trump cares only whether you defended him on television, and now these TV personalities control nuclear weapons, space exploration, and who gets prosecuted. Call your representatives’ district offices today and demand they stop confirming unqualified loyalists to positions that keep America safe.
