As @michaelehayden.bsky.social of the Posting Through It podcast put it, TPM’s coverage “introduc[es] characters now that you’ll be talking about in like a year…before they become memes.” Like this guy.

The WSJ over the weekend published an extensive new analysis of what it candidly called the “aggressive public-relations tactic” that the Trump administration is using against opponents of its mass deportation operation.
