Let 2025 be the year of refusing to give legacy credibility to non-credible institutions. It doesn't matter what the NYT, CNN, Washington Post, TikTok, Facebook, etc, etc, USED to be, what you remember them to be, or how you want them to be. Judge and treat them on what they are NOW.

Here's an idea: instead of quoting Trump's outlandish remarks, quote the RESPONSES from credible folks, like this response to remarks about a "water shortage" while fighting the California wildfires. From www.latimes.com/california/s...

Do you guys ever click the "Remember this password in my keychain" for external disks that are encrypted? I never do, because I'm afraid that if someone gets my laptop and the disk, they get access to my encrypted data. Obviously, password to laptop and disk are different.

Weiss is right about one thing — there is a faction obsessed with blowing these niche issues up into an ugly, divisive culture war. And Weiss has positioned herself as an important leader of that faction.

No Democrat ran on these issues. Most, including the leadership, supported more funding for police. I don’t know what “running on gender fluidity” means, but Harris did not foreground trans issues, other than to condemn violence and discrimination against trans people.

Just an amazing own goal by House Republicans. Confirmed Russia is still interfering with elections to Trump’s benefit, made them look like utter stooges while doing it, and obliterated their case against Biden, all in one fell swoop.
A former FBI informant accused of making false claims about President Biden and his son Hunter — which were widely publicized by Republicans — claimed to have been fed information by Russian intelligence, according to a court filing on Tuesday.
Ex-F.B.I. Informant Accused of Lying About Bidens Told Prosecutors He Had Russian Contacts
Prosecutors portrayed the former informant, Alexander Smirnov, 43, as a serial liar incapable of telling the truth about even the most basic details of his own life.
