A very important thread. When I was probably no more than 10, I saw this picture of the woman known as Harlow in the Philly Inquirer. A little babygay, I was shocked that such a glamour queen could live in my hometown and even more shocked to see her described as "a former man."

Also if you’re unwilling to be confrontational with powerful people you just should not be a journalist. You aren’t cut out for it.

There's way too much NYT discourse on here already but re: The Big Olivia Nuzzi Feature, I am pretty squarely against the Times thing of doing a long feature story about someone disreputable and doing it in that kind of arch "get a load of this asshole" tone. It's still a big feature about them!

Going to war against Iraq in 2003 was a clearly bad idea, but those in favor made the effort to justify it. With lies, yes, but they felt some obligation to the public.
Trump's desired war against Venezuela is purely his own, and he doesn't need to justify it beyond his feelings.

The base can handle some kayfabe but not when Republicans are torching the constitution and abducting people off the street.
There will be some "Wow you can't make these people happy" sentiment but what's really happening is the Dems are beginning to reap the consequences of not really believing in anything. Choreographed maneuvers, too clever by half talking points. People have just had it

if you genuinely think Schumer and Democratic leadership opposed this & Republicans coincidentally got exactly the number of votes they needed to avoid a filibuster and none of those votes are from Democratic Senators who are up for reelection in the midterms next year, I have a bridge to sell you.

The only way to argue against this is to imagine there are voters who will walk into a polling place one year from now with “the Democrats ended the shutdown last year and saved my Thanksgiving travel plans” at the forefront of their minds, which, I’m sorry, is not a real thing.
This is why you DON'T stop the shutdown. Clearly the voters know who's responsible for the shutdown and now it's gonna be even worse. Since the news isn't willing to be honest with Americans about what Trump was and is, this will have to do so they can get the message.

NEW: Trump has announced that the US will admit the lowest level of refugees ever at 7,500 in FY 2026. The US will only be admitting as refugees White people from South Africa and "victims of illegal or unjust discrimination," which leaked memos suggest means far-right Europeans.
