This CBS story is just remarkable. It states that Trump insulted their reporter, and also notes the same thing happened to reporters from Bloomberg and NYT.

Both of those organizations are quoted defending their journalists.

But Bari Weiss and CBS don't lift a finger to defend their own reporter.
Not a peep from CBS News boss Bari Weiss after Trump called CBS reporter Nancy Cordes 'stupid' at a Thurs n/c. CBS mentions the incident in this piece about Trump's repeated attacks on female reporters but Bari's MIA when it comes to standing up for Cordes.

Trump lashes out at female reporters, calling them "ugly," "stupid" and "piggy"
President Trump has lashed out at several female reporters who have asked him questions or written critically of him in recent weeks, calling them "ugly," "stupid," and "piggy."

Since Stephen Miller is in the midst of another of his Aryans-only trantrums, we should note that his family are 20th century immigrants from the shtetl of Antopol (Антопаль) then in the Hrodna gubernia of Russia. Applying his immigration rules, they would all have perished in the Holocaust.

Stephen Miller’s ancestors were Jewish refugees from the pogroms in czarist Russia. They came to the U.S. in the early twentieth century, even as racists said this same stuff about them.
Stephen Miller is now arguing that assimilation is fundamentally impossible and that certain cultures are not compatible with Western civilization

It was not a plan but a capitulation document. It did not come together. It was a Russian document presented by some Americans as American. Be clear in your headlines. Help
people see the simple awfulness of things.
President Trump's proposal to end the war in Ukraine heavily favored Russia in its initial form and included demand that Kyiv has consistently rejected. Here's how the plan came together.

I don’t know if anyone else notices or cares, but when I see a presentation in which the speaker uses obviously generated-AI images to illustrate their slides, it makes me immediately less confident in whatever other content they’re presenting.

"By the way, these countries shouldn’t have abortion restrictions either. Having abortion laws does not make them more enlightened; it is Canada that has set the standard worldwide, because abortion is a human right."

Shouting this from the rooftops every dang day.

The reality, of course, is that Miller and a significant portion of Trump’s base are the ones who failed to assimilate to America’s post-WWII culture of multi-racial democracy & religious pluralism…and they are now using their power to destroy that once dominant (and still popular) American culture.

Stephen Miller is of Jewish descent, yet he pushes the same “they won't assimilate” argument used by antisemites for millennia. Stephen Miller is a racist monster, and so is his boss.

Stephen Miller, ranting abt "mass migration" & failure to assimilate, is the descendant of immigrants fleeing "broken homelands" & only has a US passport bc of the birthright citizenship he wants to abolish.

As @sethcotlar.bsky.social says, it's MILLER who hasn't culturally assimilated to the US.

I think one of the logical fallacies that needs a little more introspection is the idea that had Nuzzi or Lizza actually done their jobs and reported the stories in a timely manner it would have made a difference. Like those stories would have been the thing that made RFK intolerable to Republicans.
