From the same newspaper that published “did feminism fuck up the work place?”, we now have “did feminism fuck up sex?”

The NYT really is desperate to cater to conservative audiences and it’s just getting more obvious and embarrassing.

Lutnick and Epstein were in business together, Epstein files show
Though the commerce secretary has called his interactions with Epstein as "limited," the two were in business together four years after Epstein's 2008 guilty plea.

WHY DOES A STAFFER HAVE ACCESS TO THE PRESIDENTS SOCIAL MEDIA THAT HE USES IN AN OFFICIAL CAPACITY?????

WHY DOESN'T THE PRESIDENT MAKE SURE WHAT GETS POSTED UNDER HIS NAME IS APPROPRIATE!?!?!?

YOU CAN DEFLECT ALL YOU WANT..... THIS STILL FALLS 100% ON HIM AND HIS RACIST IDENTITY!!!!
“A staffer” 🤔So will they name and fire this mystery staffer? Or do they think we are all morons?

Imagine buying this excuse. Especially after they already defended it.

A certain class of elite commentators is allowed to say whatever they want about Dems and immigration -- once that's the topic, it becomes a standards-free zone and they all just congratulate each other for saying the same vacuous and often provably wrong things over and over again about the topic
can't say which i find more appalling, remnick handing him a "fair enough" on the left and right being equally antisemitic or saying there was "no immigration policy" under dems. either way, super embarrassing for remnick to get steamrolled this hard by the right's pre-eminent midwit
In an interview with David Remnick, Ben Shapiro discusses his break with figures like Tucker Carlson and Candace Owens, and why he condemns President Trump as corrupt yet sticks with him. www.newyorker.com/news/the-new...

This is an immensely significant document that continues to get virtually no attention in US media—but lots abroad. In Jul 2015, Epstein arranged a meeting between a known highest-level Russian intel operative, Sergey Belyakov and Peter Thiel,

If you hear someone saying that they hope lawyers are ready to go to court to protect free and fair elections, I suggest you let them know that my law firm is already litigating more than 80 voting and election cases in 40 states.

Organized action averted ethnic cleansing in Ohio for now. But DHS hasn't been idle, turning attention to voting. This is all connected: Trump tells lies about immigrants voting; this becomes an excuse to make it harder for citizens to vote; DHS is central to both

We have a radical president with three more years and a MAGA political movement not going anywhere. CBS has been co-opted by Bari Weiss, and now too, The Washington Post with Jeff Bezos. CNN and the Times have hinted at moving right.

🚨NEW: A federal judge out of Oregon has issued a sweeping rebuke of the DOJ’s nationwide push to seize state voter rolls.

The opinion released Thursday concluded that the department can no longer be presumed to be acting in good faith and warned that its conduct threatens voters and states’ rights.
Federal judge rules DOJ can ‘no longer’ be trusted in voter roll crusade
The judge pointed to a letter from Bondi to Minnesota that tied federal immigration enforcement to demands for voter data as the smoking gun.

In related news about the Washington Post and the state of journalism today, Amazon "ran a $1.2 billion tax bill last year, down from $9 billion the previous year, even as its profits jumped by 45% to nearly $90 billion."

That's in the wake of the 2025 tax bill

Amazon's tax bill plunges after GOP tax cuts
The 87 percent drop is largely due to a more generous depreciation break in the 'One Big Beautiful Bill Act.'
