An explainer on why the WH pool is so important
An explainer on why the WH pool is so important
After all the campaign speculation we are seeing, eyes wide open, a bloodless coup overtaking the us government.
We need, especially the media, to start using language which accurately reflects what is happening. This is nothing short of a purge of any perceived enemy or opponent of Trump. Any student of history knows how this can end. Let's start calling it what it is - overthrowing democratic institutions.
If the media needs a guide right now, go back and look how reporters/editors/media companies covered the criminal President Nixon. Imagine if Katherine Graham had said we need to be quiet, we need to settle law suits. Go back and look at the clips, watch Walter Cronkite protect our democracy
Well thatβs reassuring and illegal
Putin Out for the Kremlin?
βGabbard's messaging has at times aligned so closely with Kremlin talking points that at least one commentator on Kremlin state media has referred to her as βRussia's girlfriend.ββ

Wait. She lied? Doesnβt Fox News have a problem with that this week?

At all surprised by another manufactured narrative created by the right wing and willingly and hungrily parroted by the msm?
The insider DC sheets keep running articles about Democrats bewailing Bidens pardon. Iβm able to keep a pretty close tabs on the opinions of engaged Democrats via emails to TPM. And the actual opinion is overwhelmingly in favor of the decision. In fact, more or less universal support.

This guy worked for State Dept for ~2 months. He has no inside knowledge of anything he talks about, even as he claims he βwatched a censorship regime grow from the inside.β Itβs all bullshit. And the absolute credulity displayed by Rogan here is why commentary & journalism arenβt the same.

Tweey from state Rep. Josh Schriver: Make day marriage illegal again. This is not remotely controversial, nor extreme.

A judge in Dane County, Wisconsin overturned the state's conservative-backed law (championed by Scott Walker) that banned most collective bargaining among public employees.
Judge Jacob Frost said part of the law "violates the right to equal protection of the laws." www.jsonline.com/story/news/p...
Official order signed by judge in Delaware:
"IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that pursuant to the Executive Grant of Clemency signed by Pres. Joseph R. Biden, Jr. on Dec. 1, 2024, Defendant Robert Hunter Biden has been pardoned for, inter alia, the offenses for which a jury rendered a verdict in this case"
I expect the media to provide similar scrutiny to Don jr, Eric and Ivankaβs biz deals like with Hunter. Wait. Who am I kidding?

No amount of media brainwash in the world could ever make me hope that Zelensky triumphs over an orthodox Russia. Spiritually, I just know that's wrong. You simply do not support a homosexual actor that is locking up churches and bishops.

Rep. Richard McCormick: "We're gonna have to have some hard decisions. We're gonna have to bring in the Democrats to talk about Social Security, Medicaid, Medicare. There's hundreds of billions of dollars to be saved, we just have to have the stomach to take those challenges on."
