As all this disgusting Epstein shit starts surfacing more and more, I hope we don't lose sight of the fact that apparently every major media outlet knew everything and instead spent their time money and energy attacking the trans community.

People fucking hate this guy. They fucking hate ICE. They fucking hate how much power he has. He is at 63% overall disapproval to 37% approval. That's lower than their poll after January 6th. And this poll was done before he started intentionally starving people. I wish our media would reflect this.

Do not vote for Gavin Newsom in the primary. Don’t do it. This isn’t purity testing or any other bullshit, this is a fundamental human rights question. Newsom does not see trans people as people, and he should not be allowed into higher office.

To build on this, it’s not unique to the left. This is my conservative father’s preferred rationalization of modern insanity. “It’s always been like this” or “all politicians do these things.” What reads as cynical savvy is just a permission structure to allow things that further one’s own beliefs.
there’s a subset of people who, if you point out something bad happening now, will basically reply “it was always like this and anyone who disagrees is just privileged.” it parades as savvy but nine times out of ten it’s just an ahistorical oversimplification.
"they've always been like this" is always a tempting savvy take but it is just not true that Republican staffers were 100 percent open Nazis back in 2004, or hell even 2014. they just weren't

The gap between teacher pay and other college graduates’ pay is the highest it’s been in over four decades.
Is there a “teacher shortage,” or a shortage of jobs that treat educators with the pay, dignity, and support they deserve?

WaPo running this story as if they aren’t actively part of the problem is wild
A week after the fatal shooting of Charlie Kirk, President Trump and his allies are attacking critics of the right-wing activist, a campaign detractors described as an alarming attempt to stunt freedom of expression.
Trump, allies seek to punish speech they dislike following Kirk killing
The White House-directed campaign, which is likely to face legal challenges, defies past GOP rhetoric condemning the label “hate speech” as a pretext for political persecution.
