Yes! Either shut Fox down or stop playing fair.
MSNBC worries about the perception that they’re not fair to R’s while Fox eats an $800m libel settlement to preserve its ability to lie about Ds.
That’s the asymmetry that gives illiberalism a structural advantage.

Reposting so that I can find this wonderful piece of AI civil disobedience again if I need a laugh.
This morning at Dept of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) HQ in DC as mandatory return to office began, this video played on loop for ~5 mins on screens throughout the building, per agency source.
Building staff couldn’t figure out how to turn it off so sent people to every floor to unplug TVs.

How is law enforcement t supposed to work if agencies can’t explain their legal positions for why they’re acting or not acting. Trump really is a court jester.
