NYT going alt-right.
Nazis on Twitter love the photo choice. As one account put it: “I never would've expected the NYT to glaze Nick this hard, yet, here we are. Quite a time to be alive.”

Another: “This is the hottest Nick has ever looked, so much that it barely even looks like him. What is the NYTs game here?”
Nick Fuentes had Charlie Kirk killed, by inciting his followers against Kirk. Now he's becoming Kirk's successor: that's how it works on the alt-right.
Journalists stopped asking trump meta questions, direct questions or any questions at all, as Trump and his cronies don't answer any questions. Instead, they get attacked by the bully, and if they continue to interview him, or come to White House pressers, they can't be called 'journalists' anymore.
it's time for journos to start asking Johnson meta questions

"Speaker, on 5 occasions last week you said 'I haven't seen it' when asked about news events w/big implications for public policy. Do you ever read the news, and do you agree it's problematic for the Speaker to be so woefully uninformed?"

Today, Mike Johnson will keep the House adjourned for the 91st day out of the last 103.

12 days of work in 103 days.

With full pay and benefits.

The senate has been working, so this is not about the shutdown.

It is about avoiding a vote to release the Epstein files.

Walmart, McDonalds and Amazon are the largest employers of people who require SNAP assistance.

The CEOs earned between 18-40 million last year, 1000x their median employee income.

They took billions in profits, while their workers relied on SNAP to survive.

Wanna fix fraud and abuse?

Fix that.

Exactly. Show him his post first. Put it up on a screen. Then ask him virtually any question about any word, phrase, or sentence in it.

Imagine Biden admitting on national TV that he didn’t even know who the criminal he pardoned was!!! Imagine!

Trump’s closing argument tonight:

Andrew Cuomo sucks but vote for him anyway.

I have my Extremely Not Shocked Face on.
Funny but true.
These Trump fact checks are getting kind of long. Can we shorten things up on those columns and just tell us which parts are true? I feel like that would save a lot of time.

Is Trump going to threaten to withhold federal funds before elections from every state and city that elects a Democrat or just NYC? Seems like that is buying votes with taxpayer money.
No. His baldness has nothing to do with him being evil incarnate. Good men go bald too.

None of them know anything about the pardon for the guy who made Trump a fortune in crypto. bsky.app/profile/atru...
COLLINS: Should the president know who he's pardoning?

MARKWAYNE MULLIN: I don't know anything about this one. That's the first time I've seen that.
With supporters like him, who needs opponents?
Stephen Miller endorses Andrew Cuomo.
From the moment it became known that Charlie Kirk was killed by a supporter of Nick Fuentes who had incited his henchmen to turn against Kirk in a power struggle, the Right stopped talking about his murderer, while his widow now seeks to seize power for herself.

If we were a Republic functioning as intended with separation of powers, checks & balances, House Oversight would be conducting an investigation into the Zhao pardon that Trump doesn’t remember, his involvement with Trump’s crypto company, & the foreign investors. But we aren’t.

Continuing the long tradition of not seeing any of the dumb shit Trump says

(He saw it. 100%)
RAJU: Last week you were very critical of Biden's use of the autopen. But Trump admitted on 60 Minutes to not knowing he pardoned a crypto billionaire who pleaded guilty to money laundering. Does that also concern you?

MIKE JOHNSON: I don't know anything about that. I didn't see it. I'm not sure.
Mass media is shamefully betraying the American people, losing any integrity, credibility and dignity it ever had.
So CBS settled Trump’s lawsuit where he frivolously sued because they edited Kamala Harris’s interview so it would fit into their air time.

Then CBS does a 73 minute interview of Trump where they made big edits from the version that was broadcast.

They aired 28 of 73 minutes.
The betrayal of the media
I see that CBS chose not to air this part. It probably explains much of what they did decide to air.

When Trump blows up random boats without providing any evidence they're Drug-traffickers he puts himself above US and International law,he's Police,Judge and Executioner,an ugly imperialist American who does what he pleases just because he can.When Iran does it we call it State sponsored terrorism.
Who supplies China with the oil it so badly needs, then?
