the story is about how the American elite is rotten to its very marrow, to the extent that half of it was plotting and scheming about how to use Trump to advance their own venal interests before he even won

Oh you’re telling me there should be entities that can protect the public from the effects of the unfettered pursuit of short term profit by corporations? Shame you guys did everything you could do dismantle them

it's been hard to put this feeling into words, but we've spent the past couple of decades being lectured to and patronized by an elite class that spent its free time joshing with jeffrey epstein about his little sex abuse empire while lecturing us about how out of touch we are

no see using these photos would be beneath the Times, which would never take material from a dubious source, unless it was, say, hacked documents showing that a guy born in Africa had put 'African-American' on his application form for a university he didn't get into. You know, something important.
Can we circle back to the part where the NY Times never disclosed that they have incriminating information on Donald Trump from sent by Epstein that's been sitting on their email servers for nearly a decade?
Stuff like this makes me wonder why there hasn't been any reporting about Trump having affairs during his presidencies

Exclusive: U.S. troops are not liable in the deadly strikes on alleged drug-trafficking boats in Latin America, a new classified Justice Department memo announced.

My radical view is that the story about the president being implicated in a notorious paedophile ring should be covered as an important story *in its own right*, and then secondarily any political consequences can be covered later

basically every 2024 truism is dead. Trump did not build a lasting multiracial coalition or turn young men into committed Republicans. You don’t need to cave on trans rights to win. The pundits have nothing left to tell you.

yes I am a Spanberger-Mamdani democrat and we are the future
the future of the democratic party is a coalition of the wokest people on tumblr and absolutely dead-eyed pursuers of the national interest and the maximization of GDP
funny that the two groups in the political class who have been the least enthusiastic about trump term 2 are like neocon blob guys and economists

The GOP vile anti-trans campaign failed miserably. Earle-Sears made it her dominant issue - and lost hugely
