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...
👇🎯 What is journalism, anyway? That would be journalism. What is this? More shameful stuff from NYT.

Dr. Anthony Fauci is an American hero, and Rand Paul is an American idiot. Both statements are absolutely true.
"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.
Weak-tea questioning of Rand Paul on his Fauci fixation. I did not need to wake up to this.
David Ellison is blatantly lying and the NY Times is platforming it... www.cnn.com/2026/02/12/m... www.hollywoodreporter.com/news/politic...
Trump met with David Ellison days before saying he’s ‘not involved’ in Paramount’s Netflix battle | CNN Business
The timing of the meetings — early last week — is notable because Trump was asked by NBC’s Tom Llamas on Wednesday about Paramount and Netflix’s battle for WBD, and he said, “I haven’t been involved.”

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.

Shame on @nytimes.com for allowing such rubbish. And we all saw what he did with @cbsnews.com which is a joke now. Not just that. Redefining tv and movies to fit his white narrative.

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

The media and MAGA like to write off Trump’s outrageous comments as “joking” when he’s actually telling us the ways he intends to ruin our country. My Stop the Presses newsletter.
Stop saying Trump is joking when he’s not
Will he rig the midterms? Seek an illegal third term? We need to take him seriously

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...

Trump allegedly just won his 43rd Club Championship today at one of his courses.
If the right is gonna do this over Fauci, then the next Dem admin definitely needs to run RFK Jr - who actually deserves it - through this ordeal
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...
I'm sure the Times is absolutely stunned that people with different priorities can work together to make a better society for everyone... 🙄

Can Democratic Socialists Agree on Anything? They Say That’s Not the Point.
At a national summit of the Democratic Socialists of America, nervous energy and a sprawling tableau of sometimes-competing interests were on display.
