Incredible reporting, as always Oliver. Can you release the recording?

Did the Democratic attorneys general make a mistake in bringing up concerns about CNN and CBS News during their anti-trust case? Did that give David Ellison an opening to attack them? I put the question to my home state AG, William Tong of Connecticut, and he pushed back -- hard.

Why did I dream last night about playing poker with Dario Amodei, who I've never met? Why is that dude infiltrating my dreams? I don't like it.

Thanks for listening

Hard to overstate how much Hegseth's execution stream mirrors the U.S. military's traditional description of ISIS propaganda: broadcast killings designed to send a message, strike fear and create a social media spectacle. Will almost certainly be repurposed by online terror cells

The problems with the Skydance merger go way deeper than anti-trust concerns.

As David Ellison rings the opening bell on Wall Street and people smile and cheer on the new Skydance, here's what an expert from Hungary on media capture told me he makes of the merger.

As of today, CBS News and CNN are both under control of the Trump-allied Ellison family. CT Attorney General William Tong says he fought to the "bitter end" to stop it and told me he's very worried about the future of news under the terms he and other democratic AGs settled for.

Residents in this Massachusetts town wanted to know what Flock does with the data its cameras capture of them. They could not get the company to tell them what they agreed to.

For months, residents and town officials have been asking the company a simple question. They've been asking for a single document. And the company's responses have sent them down a Kafkaesque rabbit hole to figure out what Flock might be hiding.

But we found a town where residents have a different concern. In Tewksbury, Mass., locals can’t get Flock to tell them what their town agreed to, when they signed their contract with Flock. They want to know the rules that governed what happens to their data.

This has led to dozens of municipalities canceling their contracts with Flock in recent months. Flock's CEO, Garrett Langley, has placed the blame on cops -- the "bad apples" in the police departments. Not the cameras.

You've heard the creepy stories of cops using Flock surveillance cameras to spy on people in their personal lives. One cop in Florida allegedly tracked his estranged wife more than 700 times. Another reportedly used the cameras to see if his ex had visited an abortion clinic.

Isn't it nice when there's something we can ALL agree on? #ReleaseTheUnredactedEPSTEIN-Files

But the states had just seen two major wins against Meta in these cases, and they were in the midst of the first federal trial, where Meta had just suffered a Section 230 loss in the Ninth Circuit, Zuckerberg was possibly going to have to testify, and Meta was on the back foot.
