I post about the mainstream media centering their reporting on conservatives; I also post on LGBT issues. Occasionally I write an article or two.

Hey Stephan Collinson at @cnn.com !

Can we start calling Trump’s cult “neonazis” yet?

Which low-level staffer has been anonymously setting presidential policy for the US?
I suspect that the echo chamber of Truth Social and conservative media, along with X becoming a safe space for racism and extremism under Musk, has given our Republican leaders a deeply skewed idea of what ordinary Americans find acceptable www.washingtonpost.com/politics/202...
Trump shares video depicting Obamas as apes
Tim Scott, the sole Black Republican in the Senate, called it ‘the most racist thing I’ve seen out of this White House.’

No, no, the White House explained, the president isn't an egregious racist posting egregiously racist stuff. He just gives others control of his public communications, including egregiously racist staffers he chose to hire then not fire after they communicated egregiously racist stuff on his behalf.

In 2024, Trump stated that only himself and Dan Scavino have access to his Truth Social account.

This contradicts Karoline Leavitt’s implication that some random, unnamed low-level staffer was to blame for posting the now-deleted racist Obama ape video.

Exactly right. Miles just laid it out plainly and suddenly the story snapped into focus. When the facts line up this cleanly, the denial doesn’t matter. This is why independent reporting still scares the hell out of them.

Trump could say the n-word on live TV and the Times’ first reaction would be “it was unclear if Mr. Trump was aware of the word’s complicated history”
The New York Times has finally covered the Trump video of Obama as an ape — and they are still providing cover for him. Fuck the Times.

This is overt racism. Full stop. There’s no ‘misinterpretation’ and no excuse. This is who he is, who he’s always been, and why he should never be anywhere near power again. And there’s a reason the tapes from The Apprentice have never been released.

CNBC's Rebecca Quick and Joe Kernen brought Chris Coons on this morning so they could team up to berate him about how terrible they think the an idea shutting down the government again is, as though Democrats would be entirely to blame and ICE is just normal law enforcement

Hey Stephen Collinson of @cnn.com !

When can we start being honest about what Trump’s cult is?

Are you still afraid of pissing off Trump voters?

The person leading our country is a vainglorious basket case attempting to put his name on everything he can see.

We have to assume that he believes his declining health means his time in the Oval Office will soon end, and he has to leave his mark before he goes.

Do the people at CNN really believe Trump has had a change of heart, adopted a sincere new tone, and is adjusting policy accordingly?

I doubt it, but who knows.

I’m not accusing them of believing him or falling for it, I’m accusing them of not caring. They act like truth isn’t part of their job.

Elon Musk and others LOSE their bid to duck depositions in DOGE litigation.

Judge doubts protections for "high-ranking government officials" for multiple reasons. It's unclear they ever had that status, and Musk "left government service."

The Pedo President excoriating a woman for not smiling when asking about justice for victims of rape and pedophilia underscores just how much of a piece of shit he really is.
Trump attacking Kaitlan Collins for asking about justice for Epstein survivors: You are the worst reporter. I don’t think I’ve ever seen you smile. Your organization should be ashamed of you.

Men who made hundreds of millions of dollars from a lifetime of obsessing over Jeffrey Epstein now have all the evidence they need to connect the most powerful figures in politics and tech together into a real conspiracy.

Yet they're folding in pretzels to do cover any angle other than Trump

the $75 million Jeff Bezos set on fire for that Melania propaganda piece could have funded most independent newsrooms for literally decades
always bears repeating that this is NOT a financial decision. jeff bezos is worth over 250 billion dollars. he can afford to lose many millions and never even notice it. this is, at its core, a political and personal decision by bezos to destroy the post
