Who is a prominent online leftist who actually spends their time primarily attacking Nazis, Christian nationalists, and other hard-right freaks, as opposed to the much greater threat of liberals who remind them of their moms? Honestly can't think of one.

The thing is though I absolutely do expect this framing from the White House Correspondent of the New York Times.

When you reframe Republican refusal to arm Ukraine as a political food fight that is also Biden's fault. Great job as always 🤡

If Dean Phillips got 18% of the vote in the PA primary against Biden months after dropping out, I can assure you, it would be top of mind at the Post, but somehow, when Haley collects that vote total against Trump, it's not news.

Today’s Trump trial testimony reminds us of how mainstream media – including the New York Times, Washington Post and Politico – were badly played by Trump in 2016. An example: The National Enquirer’s Trump-inspired hoax linking Ted Cruz’s dad to the JFK assassination.🧵1/7

Ukraine aid passed with 74% support of the House and will likely pass with ~80% of the Senate. It remains overwhelmingly popular, but it was delayed for seven months after the President's original request because two Republican speakers were afraid of a fringe of their party

RCP literally fix their polling averages so that Trump is ahead and gives awards to “journalists” who ratfvck Democrats yet you still see reporters from mainstream media quoting their average as if it’s a serious source.

After getting ratioed to oblivion for 24 hours, Jane “people should answer questions!” Mayer locks down replies.

Without answering any of the thousands of valid questions posed to her.

So accountable. Much intellectual honesty.

I agree with David Sacks, America First voters should shake up the establishment and back Kennedy/Shanahan this fall.

Biden has already given an unqualified condemnation of anti-semitic protestors, which is more than Noah Rothman has ever done for MAGA extremism

As a concerned citizen, I hope Trump’s trial will shine a light on his crimes. As a bestselling author, I hope the trial won’t reveal any bombshells from my forthcoming book on Trump’s crimes, due out in February 2025.

Reinhart-Rogoff is doubly funny when you consider that even if there was no spreadsheet error there is absolutely no way you could do valid causal inference with that dataset and everyone should have dismissed it on those grounds from the beginning.

If you're a member of the media who thinks it would be more 'fun' to cover a would be dictator b/c you'll get a fat book deal instead of a guy who is single-handedly holding off a regional war in the Middle East, maybe check your priorities?

Remember when all those smug pundits lectured liberals not to be hysterical because Bill Barr was an 'institutionalist'?

The least serious people in Washington are the ones who reflexively do this 'both sides' shtick. It's just objectively false, easily disproven, and bears no relation to what's happening in the U.S., but these are also the same people the media fetishizes, so here we are.
