Do we know precisely what the edit/splice was? This is the most I’ve seen and doesn’t make it clear.
The edited clip suggested that Trump told the crowd: "We're going to walk down to the Capitol and I'll be there with you, and we fight. We fight like hell." But the words were taken from sections of his speech almost an hour apart. It did not include a section in which Trump said he wanted supporters "to peacefully and patriotically make your voices heard"

The people who run BBC News need to read this superb skewering of the New York Times and then take a long, hard look at their own dismal failings. This paragraph is particularly pertinent:
‘… this mode of prestige media procedure matters absolutely and enormously, at scales difficult to tabulate. It's not hard to call them all to mind: "Climate change is increasingly lethal, though critics say... it is not." Or, "Istael is murdering journalists in Gaza at historically unprecedented rates, though critics say... it is not." Or, "Trans people claim to be real, though critics say..."’

Fascinated to learn that this quotation refers to Baldwin’s own hatred of his dying father (Notes of a Native Son, 1955, p 101).
‘It was on the 28th of July, which I believe was a Wednesday, that I visited my father for the first time during his illness and for the last time in his life. The moment I saw him I knew why I had put off this visit so long. I had told my mother that I did not want to see him because I hated him. But this was not true. It was only that I had hated him and I wanted to hold on to this hatred. I did not want to look on him as a ruin: it was not a ruin I had hated. I imagine that one of the reasons people cling to their hates so stubbornly is because they sense, once hate is gone, that they will be forced to deal with pain.’

Pathetic. Debating whether to engage or just block.
The personal affairs of Depp and his wife were decided by a court. No one really knows what happened behind the closed doors of that marriage. You have no right to judge. October 24, 2025 at 9:41 AM

Platner is a grim embodiment of this meme. He’s a socialist … but he has a Nazi tattoo. He supports LGBTQ+ rights … but he dismissed rape victims as getting drunk and sleeping with the wrong people. He’s ACAB … but he thinks Black people don’t tip and rural Americans are stupid. And so on.
