Go, @sulliview.bsky.social - let's talk about why. And why the @nytimes.com chose not to maintain the independence actual journalism requires. @nytimes.com disqualified itself from the political discussion by being bought and paid for. It isn't the only one, but it's the one I used to depend on.
I love that former NYT public editor @sulliview.bsky.social is public-editing from the outside.
"With this made-up scandal, combined with the pre-election editorial, the Times looks like it’s on a crusade against Mamdani.
"And no lofty explanation about the mission can disguise it."

UPDATE: This just got worse. Donald Trump apparently cut a secret side deal for MILLIONS in pro-Trump ads.
That would mean Paramount and its soon-to-be owner are shelling out $30 MILLION+ to support Trump—all while trying to get his approval on their merger.
Is this bribery?

C'mon, @markwarner.bsky.social be straight with us. We know you're tired and working yourself sick, so you don't need to play around. We all know he's only in it for the grift. With Watergate, they followed the money. Let's try that.

Is there a lawsuit being filed? I read yesterday that there was but nothing in the press (not surprised). Pretty sure there's nothing we can do - or is there?

Once again, I recommend Justice Sotomayor’s powerful dissent, which she read from the bench. (The SCOTUS equivalent of screaming.) It’s all straightforward and accessible.

@dannyavula.bsky.social you have the power to stop these masked cowards, to force them to identify themselves and show their faces. It's way past time to use that power.
Believe it or not, Tennessee's GOP supermajority is actually pushing through legislation that will make this type of law enforcement activity explicitly legal and protected. Tennessee wants more of this.
When ICE agents look like this, it is ENTIRELY APPROPRIATE for state and local law enforcement to step in and demand they identify themselves and show judicial warrants before detaining anyone from an immigration court.
Democratic mayor and governors can take action on this.
