why would they portray one of Trump's staunchest allies as a critic of his regime's excesses while erasing the work of actual critics? I have a theory about this
This is a remarkable @nytimes.com split screen:
A huge 3,526 word + photos profile on Sen Britt who "can't stop thinking about the boy ICE detained"
But Rep Jaoquin Castro- who actually got Liam Ramos out of detention & back home- gets no interview, no pix, just 116 words inside a story. WOW.

The Washpost won't be able to cover sports, local news, a lot of foreign news, or books, but it does have the budget for op-ed columnists, like this one from the National Review, who just discovered the gasoline costs more in California than Texas.

One of my best friends and post-college roommates who would later become a sports journalist had a relative from the DMV save the WaPo’s sport section every day and mail them to him in weekly batches, it was considered that essential to understanding the state of things. Unreal that it’s just…gone
WaPo's Matt Murray told staff the paper is shuttering sports, moving remaining staff to features, shrinking foreign coverage, restructuring metro, closing books coverage, suspending Post Reports podcast
