What liberals correctly point out is that in fact these sites regularly do the opposite: downplay the unprecedented illegality and problematic nature of Trump's actions. Dozens of examples, but compare hundreds of stories on Biden's mental decline to virtual silence about Trump's far worse decline

I don't think that is the right metric. Trump is uniquely horrible. The overwhelming majority of commentary SHOULD be critical of him. The question is whether it is more critical, just critical enough, or less critical than it should be. And overwhelmingly it downplays the criticism

DS9 commented that at some point Starfleet switched Gold and Red as job positions. That HAS to have been confusing.

Rude awakening to major patentees: Trump wreck PTO, an agency responsible for major economic work (without partisan valence). Everybody worse off without agency independence, professionalization, procedures.
We need major patentees to protest, but instead they're gifting T with stock/royalties
