Jesus fucking Christ everyone's putting @nytpitchbot.bsky.social out of a job tonight.
I was thinking that maybe, more than 20 years after the start of the Iraq war, media coverage would be more skeptical and less sycophantic

No such luck

ALEXANDER: The implication that this policy is new or that it stems from efforts that began under Biden is demonstrably false.

TRUMP: Who said that, you?

ALEXANDER: It's been on the FAA's website since 2013. Why didn't you change the policy during your first administration

all I know is that had President Biden forced out the FAA chief under pressure from his top adviser and his corrupt motives, and then the next week there was a plane crash that killed more than 60 people, Republicans would be howling that it was an impeachable offense.

Using the tragic plane collision over the Potomac that cost 67 human souls as an occasion to slam DEI hiring was obscene. There’s zero evidence at this point that an underqualified air traffic controller or pilot had any role in this crash.

so is anybody even going to bother to go through the motions of calling for Trump to divest from his businesses this time around, or did we just give up on that one too?

At this point, democrats have to concentrate on stopping the ones that will do the most damage.

Forget the distraction nominees. Focus on the serious threats.

Gaetz, Gabbard and Hegseth remain the most problematic.

Every day each of us doesn’t say or do something to protest this insanity is a day we contribute to making it seem normal and making it harder eventually to undo.

So don’t let a day go by without registering your resistance — and refusing to signal your resignation!
