The words "North Carolina," and "Missouri" do not appear in this piece of shit article.
Neither does the word "decade."
"Florida" and "Texas" appear in subordinate clauses, after words like "After Virginia ..." and "Gov. Gavin Newsom of California framed ..."

Someday, with luck and hard work, she will have a name too.
I was just thinking this very thing. Antony made a mistake and then he just stopped - Evander style. Ooof.
Hey Phil, I have an idea. His name is Lassiter. It’s a good idea. Trust me. #rctid

A MLS Cup Final. 54,000 fans in the stands. The fans have shown up, and now it's time for the city and province to do the same.
Vancouver supporters have launched SaveTheCaps.com

Here, Here! We went to Vancouver last weekend and happened to be on the returning flight with Velde and spoke to him. He was humble and he said “we are trying to win some games for you (fans)” and we said “you will - and we will be there when you do.” #rctid
Really hard to not come away with the conclusion that anyone who wants to be a politician shouldn't be allowed to be one.
"History will judge-" let me stop you right fucking there, history doesn't do fucking shit, I'm a historian, let's be clear here: elected officials need to do their fucking jobs, right now, before it happens, or future historians will judge THEM. Everyone knows and knew who Trump was.
This is an actual post. This is not funny. This is beyond desperate. This is a deeply unwell man who doesn’t belong anywhere near the levers of power. Every member of his cabinet and Congress is complicit in not demanding his removal now.
This is how the NY Times headlined a story about Trump's deranged post in which he wrote "Open the Fuckin' Strait, you crazy bastards" and made a reference to Allah that Muslims surely find insulting.
To NYT, Trump isn't unhinged – he's "emboldened."
#NewYorkTimes. Our paper of “record”.
The marches had no shortage of skeptics. In Oxford, Miss,, Cass Rutledge, a first-year law student at the University of Mississippi, walked through the No Kings protest and around the town square on Saturday and questioned why people thought Mr. Trump was acting like a king. "He is, you know, a duly elected president who won the popular vote and the electoral college in a landslide," Mr. Rutledge said. "And so I'm a little bit confused on how he's acting differently than any other president." He pointed to the stalemate in Congress over the SAVE America Act, the Republican-driven bill to tighten voter identification and registration rules, which Democrats have called an attempt to suppress turnout based on false claims of voting fraud. Mr. Rutledge said that Mr. Trump was "going through the process" to try to get the legislation passed.

The NYT says today’s #NoKings protests had “no shortage of skeptics,” and then quoted exactly one of those skeptics: The chairman of the Ole Miss College Republicans (as of 2025.)
But of course, the Times doesn’t ID him as such. He’s just a Concerned Youth.
The New York Times writes this whole story about this without mentioning that Trump billionaire donor Larry Ellison owns the CBS Sports rights to the Army Navy game, which is being threatened by competing broadcasts owned by ESPN/ABC/Disney.
In my @ms.now column from Sunday I noted how every time there's a vote on trans issues in congress, the NY Times runs an opinion piece calling for Democrats to abandon trans people.
For the SAVE America Act, they ran two.

Nobody ever played more than 10 minutes with a two-player advantage in the NWSL before. The Seattle Reign did it for 40. They lost by two goals to the Portland Thorns. Um, WHAT?!?!? The guys try to figure out how such a thing could happen on this week's episode.
Taxpayers pay twice:
Trump is giving one billion taxpayer dollars to a company so it WON'T build clean offshore wind.
Fewer clean energy projects pushes up utility rates, which costs families even more.
🚨BREAKING: Steve Bannon suggested that President Donald Trump deployed Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents to major U.S. airports as part of a “test run” for using them to meddle in upcoming elections. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

A line from the Independent story reading: “The airport footage was obtained through an information disclosure request to Minneapolis-St. Paul International Airport by activist Nick Benson with MN50501 - a Minnesota-based organization that advocates against Trump's policies.” I’ve highlighted the part where it links to MN50501.

This @the-independent.com story is such an obvious lift of mine that they didn’t even bother deleting my site’s referral URL.
And no, they do not credit me for reporting it first or (intentionally) link to my story.
In j-school, rewording someone else’s reporting was called plagiarism. 1/
I love Lassiter starting. Hope he does well!!
For those who want to actually read it.
If Joe Biden's son-in-law was flying around the Middle East as an unofficial Secretary of State while also working on business deals for his company with the same people he was meeting with on behalf of the US government, I'm pretty sure it would be a bigger story 🤔
They made them take down the videos because they would cause "reputational damage" to people like this young man, Nathan Cavanuagh, so definitely don't post this all over the internet with the name Nathan Cavanaugh attached, or this guy might suffer reputational damage. This guy, Nathan Cavanaugh.
They are a La Croix can.
Most liberals have no idea that the NY Times is a problem. Liberal/Dem leaders rarely criticize the Times (or any media) so people assume it’s okay. We have a serious media literacy problem on the left.
I have been screaming this for months. #teamLassie!!!!!!!!!!
But what player is going to want to play for you when you say that? Can they say “I don’t think he managed like a man”? What does “like a man” even mean to him?
Lassie? Lassiter?
Please? Pretty please can the lineups not be a video. Please?
We simply cannot allow these fucking morons to act like they're the ones who truly love this country. They don't take matters of life and deaths seriously. They aren't patriots--they're the most selfish people on the planet.
