We need, especially the media, to start using language which accurately reflects what is happening. This is nothing short of a purge of any perceived enemy or opponent of Trump. Any student of history knows how this can end. Let's start calling it what it is - overthrowing democratic institutions.

If the media needs a guide right now, go back and look how reporters/editors/media companies covered the criminal President Nixon. Imagine if Katherine Graham had said we need to be quiet, we need to settle law suits. Go back and look at the clips, watch Walter Cronkite protect our democracy

Well that’s reassuring and illegal

The insider DC sheets keep running articles about Democrats bewailing Bidens pardon. I’m able to keep a pretty close tabs on the opinions of engaged Democrats via emails to TPM. And the actual opinion is overwhelmingly in favor of the decision. In fact, more or less universal support.

This guy worked for State Dept for ~2 months. He has no inside knowledge of anything he talks about, even as he claims he ‘watched a censorship regime grow from the inside.’ It’s all bullshit. And the absolute credulity displayed by Rogan here is why commentary & journalism aren’t the same.

I think you could argue a bunch of different takes on the Hunter Biden pardon, clearly! People have!
But it seems *INSANE* to have dozens of stories and a fucking live blog on this given everything else that's so much more consequential happening right now.
