Setting aside the fact that the NY Times is in the PR business and not the journalism business (which is not new news), the White House must have a weak hand if they're trying to put out fake stories.

Interesting choice of language in the question to refer to "crimes allegedly committed by Jeffrey Epstein" as he pled guilty and was sentenced to 18 months for two felony prostitution charges. The crimes weren't just alleged but admitted and proven.

Obviously there was much more alleged as well.

Pedocon Theory Implies Pedocon Praxis How do we put a stop to this monkey business?

you've likely heard a lot about pedocon theory these past few weeks, but what is a theory without its praxis?

When the Rebuilding happens there will need to be a government institute funding independent journalism in the same way that we collectively fund public goods like medical research.

The alternative is a media ecosystem that puts profits and propaganda above public interest.

Who is going to be the first to call him a nazi pedophile criminal rapist traitor to his face? Once the seal is broken it will be easy.

Needs more Men at Work, INXS, and Midnight Oil. Why is Aussie music so good?

Curious how this number has moved, if at all over time. If, for example, the numbers were the same two years ago then it's possible for a president to ignore them?

Perhaps if these advertisers were to see screenshots of their product or service next to a comment from Mechahitler they would reconsider?

I saw Dennis Ross once at UCLA in a debate about invading Iraq during the lead up.

He was arguing pro- and I couldn't believe that someone could be on a stage claiming to be an authority on a topic, and yet know less about the topic than nearly every student in the room. And it was a big room.

Imagine the kind of culture he must come from if he thinks saying this in public is ok?

The smear campaign has begun! Any bets on whether his tax returns will end up printed in the NY Times?

One guy and a group of oligarchs and extremists that have been plotting this moment for decades. They've invested billions to get here.

Interesting that the right-leaning polls (red line) seem to lead the rest of the polls by 1-2 weeks. It's catching changes in sentiment sooner.

I wonder if they are polling more frequently or picking up people who are more tuned in to events?

Online opt-in polls can produce misleading results, especially for young people and Hispanic adults We examine how an opt-in poll may have unintentionally misled the public about the sensitive issue of Holocaust denial among young Americans.

Fascinating. We all have our own biases.

Do you think interviewers are asking this question to establishment Dems just to watch them squirm?

Zohran is a threat to their power in a way that the other is not. They risk losing their seat in a primary but not to the other party.

Worth going back to study how the fever of McCarthy was finally broken for some guidance on how to do it again. McCarthy went after the army and the public eventually turned against his antics.

Fun fact: McCarthy's chief counsel was Roy Cohn who later mentored the guy who everyone wishes was dead.
