For some reason, this Sunday’s “60 Minutes” will feature a lengthy interview with Congresswoman Marjorie Taylor Green, the QAnon subscriber who has frequently expressed racist, antisemitic and homophobic rhetoric and elevated far-right conspiracy theories in ways that will feel both laughable and highly dangerous.
Lesley Stahl, America’s favorite prickly grandma (who we all loved seeing in “Marcel the Shell with Shoes On”) conducted the interview, which was promoted via a tone-deaf tweet that said the Georgia Republican “isn’t afraid to share her opinions, no matter how intense and in-your-face they are.”
And people have been responding to the tweet … appropriately.
Writer, journalist and big-time sneakerhead Russ Bengtson wrote, simply, “Delete your TV show,” with actor Paul Tefler tweeting, “Phew boy, how low you’ve sunk here.”

MSNBC’s Chuck Todd is once again irking Democrats by his lack of hugs for those leaning left, with Friday’s beef about his questioning if the nomination of Ketanji Brown Jackson to the Supreme Court is the party’s last hurrah before the November midterm elections — leaving many to suggest outgoing White House press secretary Jen Psaki replace him.
Although Friday was supposed to be a day of celebration for Dems because of Kbj’s historic nomination as the first Black woman appointed to serve on the Supreme Court, Todd took the glass-is-half-full approach on “Mtp Daily.”
“Here’s the uncomfortable question for Democrats,” Todd asked. “Is this the last big thing they pass? Is this the last big thing this Congress accomplishes before November?”
Those on social media were not happy with his pessimism about the momentous event and, to put it simply, are tired of his vibe.

According to David Rothschild, economist and HuffPost Entertainment's resident prediction guru, the results of the 70th annual Golden Globes don't amount to a hill of beans. To quote the great Frank Drebin, however: This is our hill, and these are our beans. Even if the Golden Globes don't mean anything, they mean something. Ahead, five things the 2013 Golden Globes results could affect on Oscar night, statistics be damned.
"Ar," Go!
Thanks to an abundance of quality films and the shortened voting window, the 85th annual Oscar nominations were some of the most loopy in history: No nods for Ben Affleck, Kathryn Bigelow and Tom Hooper in the Best Director category; major love for "Beasts of the Southern Wild" and "Amour"; acting nominations in each category for "Silver Linings Playbook," putting it in the same sentence as "Reds" and "Network," among other classics. It's crazy up in the AMPAS! And it...

The inside story of Matt Damon's bold yet sane plan to use his celebrity and smarts to help attack one of the globe's great crises.
Matt Damon, water warrior. He's not that interested in fancy galas as a way to raise money. "That seems very analog," he says. | In the Dogon region of Mali, a girl from the small village of Songhe scoops up water from a pit that has been dug deep into a dried-up riverbed. Mali faces continual water shortages, despite a rich aquifer. | Photographs by Damon Winters/The New York Times/Redux pictures (Damon); Stuart Franklin/Magnum (Girl)
Once upon a time, Matt Damon went for a long walk in rural Zambia. The devoted family man and method philanthropist was accompanying a 14-year-old Zambian girl who had no idea that her hiking companion was an Academy Award-winning international heartthrob.
The walk came toward the end of a 10-day African journey,...
