As all this disgusting Epstein shit starts surfacing more and more, I hope we don't lose sight of the fact that apparently every major media outlet knew everything and instead spent their time money and energy attacking the trans community.

the thing that upsets me about this the most is that Dems had all the momentum, republicans were reeling, and we were getting intra-GOP fighting over the filibuster, all while voters were blaming republicans for their incompetence

The latest interminable essay from @ezraklein.bsky.social illustrates better than ever that he is the last person anyone should be listening to about politics. It is a constructed fantasy of left politics of the last 10 years that is wholly detached from reality, which has been militantly centrist.

No coverage on the NYT of the largest protests in the US for 50 years. The NYT is an essentially an arm of the Trump Adminsitration.

The NYT covered that story with a six column headline across the top of the paper and two full pages inside
Today, two small pics below the fold and a story on page A23
They constantly let America down
