The NY Times is the reason we have Bari Weiss—their heinous leadership thrust that incompetent & intellectually stunted gecko onto us despite no talent, charisma or skill. Of course they are bedfellows of Ellison & the racist far right.

Shameful: The #BrokenTimes hands David Ellison op-ed space rather than challenging his bullshit pap and propaganda about journalism with the receipts he has already delivered at CBS. That would be journalism. www.nytimes.com/2026/08/04/o...

"Morning Joe" should NEVER give a nut job like Rand Paul a platform and unlimited time to spread lies and conspiracy theories. Sen Paul accused Dr. Fauci of destroying records and manipulating an animal virus to make it 50 times more potent in humans. Paul's rhetoric is misleading and dangerous.

Between this and the op-ed praising Texas's new book curriculum asking us to just wave past the mandatory religious thing, it was a banner day and both promoted in morning newsletter.

Ellison put on a dinner headlined “Honoring the Trump White House” and included his CBS editor, top anchor, and WH correspondent, so he can spare us this both-sides ridiculousness

Blanche’s appeasement is hollow. Trump still gets immunity from tax audits worth $100 million. And last week’s payout to abortion clinic blocker shows the path to payouts to rewrite history will be individual settlements instead of one designated fund. www.nytimes.com/2026/08/03/u...

Blanche Gives G.O.P. Senators Written Assurances on Trump’s I.R.S. Deal (Gift Article)

Todd Blanche’s confirmation as attorney general has been held up over concerns about a planned $1.8 billion fund for Trump allies and the president’s immunity from tax scrutiny.

This is a story about the President and several of his hand-picked appointees all committing crimes and blatantly lying to the public while stealing public funds and abusing the criminal justice system, but the NYTimes describes the situation like they're recapping a soap opera.

Another example of the problem with the fixation with Trump’s putative emotions: here a story about the Trump administration’s corruption, incompetence, and venality is framed as one about Trump’s “wrath.” www.nytimes.com/2026/08/01/u...
