NYTimes has a long history of holding conservatives—including its paid columnists, like Stephens here—to absolutely no standards whatsoever, but still worth noting the complete lack of ethics required to not mention how 99.99% of Iran's uranium stockpile was due to Trump withdrawing from JCPOA.

C-SPAN caller to Tapper: "When are you going to examine what's going on with Trump? ... this president has been pure chaos, which indicates to me that there is something wrong with him. We will never get a straight answer on his medical exam, and yet you have gone after Joe Biden with a vengeance."

Accuracy matters @us.theguardian.com The group was NOT part of #PDX #NoKings protests but a splinter group AFTER the event ended "The protests were largely peaceful, though some – in Los Angeles and Portland – were later deemed unlawful assembly by law enforcement and met with teargas."

We are learning that new ACIP members, appointed in a non-transparent process, are also, predictably, riddled with direct and indirect financial COI... including some who are paid experts in lawsuits against vaccine manufacturers. Don't be fooled. His crusade is not about cleaning up conflicts.
