Not sure anyone will see this but I figured I’d get in on this since I’ve written so many over the years.

This was just posted by a CBS News producer on their Instagram stories.
Acting surprised by blatant racism and other biases really shows a disconnect to what many others see and experience.
It’s more how too often ppl made excuses and continued supporting the NYT and this is the result. A racist, xenophobic, rag that continues to thrive bc ppl won’t admit what it’s always been.
I honestly don't think the NY Times has been this bad in my lifetime, it's deeply shameful.

The NYT is a white owned and run institution. It's also a fascist-normalizing institution.

Taxpayers don’t owe Donald Trump a dime for his legal battles. While he’s trying to get $230 million from the federal government to pay his own lawyers, families across this country are struggling to keep up with grocery bills and rent.

It’s really sad when folks prefer to give money and hoard job opportunities to themself.

Zohran Mamdani's historic campaign for mayor of New York has led to the "normalization of Islamophobic attacks" that harken back to the discrimination many Muslim Americans faced after 9/11, says journalist Meher Ahmad. https://www.democracynow.org/2025/10/27/meher_ahmad_nyc_election_zohran_mamdani

The dynamic between state and federal power has been tenuous since the day the constitution was drafted. I cannot overemphasize how much about impactful that dynamic is. If states really start pulling away from the fed, it’s gonna get CRAZY out here.
Walz: "We have a federal system that we're all in it together, we help other states when they need it, but we have a situation where they're trying to divide us & provide specific aid to states that they like at the moment, which is absolutely unconscionable... either that or give us our money back"

"No longer should we think about our political process as settling for the lesser of two evils. We can demand a greater good.

And in doing so, we can make City Hall a place from which New Yorkers expect change, not failure."
And it was so frustrating because I was eating healthy, walking almost 10k steps a day and working out. 😔
After a barrage of tests they still don’t know what’s with my stomach. So now allergy tests to see if there’s something or several somethings I need to avoid. Happy it wasn’t what I feared but still need to know what I need to do to feel better. Being out of commission on and off is depressing.

No Kings protests were one of the few times Trump, MAGA, and right-wing media were reacting to something the opposition did, rather than the opposition reacting to whatever they do.
Adopt a principle from war strategy: generally better to be taking action and forcing opponents to react. Good point.
Point five is really important. The protests provoked errors from the administration (shit force one) that may haunt them for years. That’s what happens when you stop being reactive.

Glad ICE is getting called out for plate swapping in Illinois, but this has been happening in California from the jump.
So I just missed the screening even though I reached out to the person repeatedly. I’m upset and livid.
My moodiness is bad. Stomach still messed up and after all these big tests they haven’t figured out what the issue is. So now I have allergy tests coming up. 🤞🏽
Why even bother emailing us with the pr to contact when it’s crickets when we request?
You know it’s fucked up that I was told I’d receive info about screenings for Chainsaw Man closer to the release date only to be ghosted.
With the current regime in office this reeks even more.
