Hey! Remember when Barr (Bondi) withheld the Mueller (Epstein) documents for weeks so he (she) could mischaracterize what was in the Mueller (Epstein) Report and spin the findings for three weeks and then over-redact them? I sure do!

"Point-of-view journalism plus a very high standard of verification" is such a good description of the project we should aspire to. Thanks, @jayrosen.bsky.social:
If you're not for "both sides do it" journalism and you're weary of "symmetrical treatment of asymmetrical facts," what's the alternative?

One answer is point-of-view journalism plus a very high standard of verification, as @gregsargent.bsky.social demonstrates here.

I’m not at all surprised because he is that depraved & nasty and such a disgusting cretin of a being. I do, however, find it extremely disgusting & embarrassing as an American to have this POS still the current POTUS. I cannot believe so many weak-ass congressmen in the GOP won’t do anything.

He's one of Boston Globe Magazine’s Bostonians of the Year.

We are not just going to sit around and put up with this. We are going to omit his entire second presidency and undo it all. As soon as we're able to get all this corruption out of the government and start over. It's bullshit. We have so much technology, so many resources. We can do better.

Immigrants ‘plucked out of line’ at citizenship ceremony at Faneuil Hall “the cradle of liberty”.

If you ever claimed you want immigrants to do it the right way, this should outrage you. On the other hand, If you think this was okay, you need to come to terms with your white nationalist views.

As people made their way into a naturalization ceremony, ICE officials stopped 38 of the 100 applicants and told them they wouldn't be leaving with U.S. citizenship. The immigrants — who passed every step in the naturalization process — needed only to take the oath of allegiance to become citizens.

Calling the press “fake news” is harmful. Calling them “seditious, perhaps even treasonous” for publishing reporting is something else entirely. Treason is a capital crime. Suggesting journalists should face it for exercising their First Amendment rights and doing their jobs is dangerous.

Oligarchy (noun):

A government of and by a few at the top, who exercise power for their own benefit. Their power and wealth increase as they make laws that favor themselves, manipulate financial markets, and create monopolies that put more wealth into their pockets.

🧵Just remember—Reagan appointed a crooked dirtbag named William S. Sessions to run the FBI.

By the time Clinton got into office, allegations of misconduct were piling up, so Sessions was fired.

He then became the personal attorney of the boss-of-all-bosses of the Russian mob, Semion Mogelevich.
