I was going to like the skeet, but this was too good to ruin...

spiderbird.bsky.social•593 days ago

An alternative they didn’t go with:
“Trump Plans on Transforming the Executive Branch After the 2024 Election.”

“Transforming” being the operative word here.

spiderbird.bsky.social•593 days ago

Hey, thanks for the repost! Very kind of you.

santoroski.bsky.social•594 days ago

It's wild how hard the press works to make their crazy sound normal.

Greedom or Freedom? Dems w still pitch Biden against him a good dude gone horribly to seed

Yep a lotta fancy words to describe the second coming of Hitler.

lisajane.bsky.social•594 days ago

as far as I can tell, only one prez candidate ever tried an actual treasonous coup
not talking about jan 6 riot
actual attempted coup w actual fake electors in place
to overthrow our election overthrow democracy
overthrow our US govt

lisajane.bsky.social•594 days ago

as for NY Times just another corporate media outlet pushing corporate views

fritzcc.bsky.social•593 days ago

It’d be funnier if they hadn’t already run this story like fifty times

genxjamerican.com•593 days ago

What’s sad is that the article itself correctly traces the origins of the unitary executive theory to the Reagan administration. These bad ideas have a long history and are why the GOP shouldn’t be entrusted with power.

you've got their "objective" tone of voice down. i wouldn't be surprised if they just straight up steal this skeet

They can have it

jer.bsky.social•594 days ago

holy fuck imagine not retracting that

hapkidogal.bsky.social•594 days ago

They should put a bold type apology above it .

lizardky.bsky.social•594 days ago

I'd rather they *didn't* memory hole it, frankly. Apologize for it, sure, but not hide it and pretend it never happened.

hapkidogal.bsky.social•594 days ago

Apologize in broad type above it. That is what should be. I agree about not hiding it.

rgh1205.bsky.social•593 days ago

Aspiring neo-fascist intent on abolishing any press unfavorable to him gets the benefit of the doubt by press he is intent to abolish due to self-destructive compulsion to both-sideism.

rgh1205.bsky.social•594 days ago

It is almost as if the New York Times will go out of its way to be non-confrontational which is rather ironic as freedom of the press is not exactly on Trump's wish list of rights to protect.

dashwallkick.bsky.social•594 days ago

IIRC this is literally how they talked about actual Hitler lol

1. That’s not the headline, either in print or online. 2. It’s a great story. It’s all people are talking about today.

richardaiguy.bsky.social•594 days ago

It's the attitude from that corporatist rag that minimizes threats from that orange lunatic to maintain some bizarre status quo and advertising revenue.

auntubu.bsky.social•593 days ago

The NYTimes begging for access is like the neglected monkeys in Maslow's experiments, so needy and starved for affection, they'd cling to a scrap of towel draped around chicken wire.

edbott.com•594 days ago

The current headline on the NYT mobile app is "Trump and Allies Forge Plans to Increase Presidential Power in 2025." That seems pretty damn close to what's posted here.

Still waiting for the NYT obit for parody

daisymaezzy.bsky.social•594 days ago

They need to “both sides” it, I get it. But then just call him both a dick and a tator.

mikagepambi.bsky.social•593 days ago

They’re so unscrupulous, that they even dare use the “both sides” tactic with something as obvious as Ukraine’s right to exist.

They turned from hating to supporting Russia so easily, gullible people can be manipulated in fascinating ways with the correct propaganda.

daisymaezzy.bsky.social•593 days ago

They hate Ukraine, they hate Trans people, now they even hate Bud Light and Barbie. It’s just a hate fest. Seriously there’s no agenda other than let’s find someone new to hate. I don’t understand how that’s an attractive platform to anyone. But maybe I’m just weird.

mikagepambi.bsky.social•593 days ago

That’s how populism works, doesn’t matter if it’s left or right, populism takes advantage of our weakness as humans: Emotions.

When politicians start appealing to emotion rather than facts and rationality, then you know they’re populists.

bperlownps.bsky.social•594 days ago

NYT and their stanning for Fascism since the 1850s.

I just read that article, ain't that some bullshit?

anthrodiva.bsky.social•594 days ago

Oh it's real?

shannduin.ca•594 days ago

Theres an article about trumps plans to change many independent agencies like FCC to directly report to POTUS, plus bring Justice Dept under presidential control and some others. Title is: Trump and Allies Forge Plans to Increase Presidential Power in 2025

auntubu.bsky.social•593 days ago

Trump couldn't even handle the usual POTUS obligations! Does this mean he'll be promoting the Hollywood executives he appointed to head the VA in charge of the Department of Education? Will Evangelicals be asked to bid for the privilege of turning PBS into a home schooling platform? Stay tuned.

anthrodiva.bsky.social•594 days ago

"Trump Plans to Become King, Cope" says NYT.

nickwrightdata.ntw.app•594 days ago

Time-Tested* View

the-barely-jew.bsky.social•594 days ago

"Clearly Donald Trump is referencing this obscure Supreme Court case from 1853 and taking the word 'dictate' in it's literal meaning. Legal scholars are curious to see how the courts would debate these actions."

pins.bsky.social•594 days ago

(this is what the community notes on Twitter would say)

lizardky.bsky.social•594 days ago

Yep.
Every time Trump says something insanely stupid[1], the Usual Suspects crawl out to "explain" what he "really meant", based on Gordian knots of twisted logic and references to obscure definitions Trump surely does not know or use.

[1]IOW, "speaks".

feels troubling that there is little way to warn the general masses when our 'journalists' write this way
