In 2025, no one should be reading or supporting the New York Times for MANY reasons. Add this to the list of immoral things they’ve done.
Someone at the NYT (or deeply connected to it) has gotta be personally implicated in the Epstein files, because there’s no other credible reason to sit on such a juicy story for the last 10 years that was literally handed to them on a silver platter.
Not only was the Times obsessed with Hillary Clinton's emails while ignoring emails about Donald Trump sent to its own reporter, but since then it has constantly attacked anyone who dared look into questions of Trump's character. All with sanctimony.
Now we know it was all a big lie.

Trump's FCC just scrapped a Biden-era cap on the maximum price of prison phone calls between inmates and their families.
Telecom and private prison companies — which donated to Trump's campaign — lobbied for the rollback.
This regime's cruelty and corruption knows no bounds.

Fun fact: Doctor Oz, Administrator for the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services, close friend of Trump and RFK Jr., and self-admitted fraudulent supplement huckster, sells multiple forms of leucovorin through his supplement company, iHerb, which he didn’t divest when taking his federal gov role.
Anyway watch the stocks of whoever has the patent of leucovorin go up after the announcement. That’s all this is. Promoting Leucovorin so adults force their kids to ingest it to “cure their autism”.
But what is Leucovorin and why are they claiming it cures autism? 👇

There’s literally nothing that people won’t do for their insatiable greed. We are so royally fucked until rich people care enough to be a little less rich.
CBS parent company Paramount canceled Colbert to win approval from Trump's FCC to merge with Skydance.
Now ABC parent company Disney suspends Kimmel as it seeks DOJ approval to buy Fubo — and its affiliate Nexstar seeks FCC approval to buy Tegna.
See how this works?

Using language like ‘drug vessel’ conjures pictures in the mind of something very different than what was actually targeted and bombed (a very small boat).
Days after sending U.S. gunboats to South American waters, President Trump says the U.S. Navy struck a vessel in the southern Caribbean carrying what he described as a Venezuelan drug shipment.

A government-sanctioned "truth arbiter" will soon arrive at CBS. Their role will be to ensure that journalists do not criticize this Administration or express views that conflict with its agenda.
