Could headlines please not just take for granted that Trump “is doing” stuff he has no legal authority to do just because he said so? Because the implication to the reader is that he can in fact legitimately do these things.

In a heathy democracy, the WHCA would fight this by boycotting all WH and travel events until the old system was restored. But they’re going to roll over and do whatever it takes to maintain “access” so they can be lied to in comfort

Just an amazing lack on introspection. You don't reach this point without years of acquiescence. And even now, there are no plans to approach the administration as hostile.

The scene outside the Constitutional Court is truly disturbing. Yoon supporters are shouting that judges, police, and election officials are all Chinese agents. The unhinged conspiracy theories claiming CCP infiltration have reached levels that are both bizarre and frightening.

I think multiple elected officials just nonchalantly being like “Elon Musk is not a government employee and has zero authority so his words are basically toilet paper” would probably result in one of the most epic public breakdowns and illegal threats against federal officials we’ve ever seen

I would like to remind everybody that for liberals, continuing to kill babies for a couple of weeks longer, denying us a $15 minimum wage and a public option so people keep going bankrupt n losing their livelihoods due to health costs was more important than defeating trump Yell at the democrats🖕🖕🖕

I just want to note, the "media" is not a singular entity. But part of the problem and why I shit so much on the NYT is it, unfortunately, shapes a lot of national discourse. It's what many national outlets measure themselves against and that's the problem. It warps people's minds.

there’s a type of person who doesn’t “sweat the small stuff” bc “things will just work out,” who doesn’t see that things “just working out” is the result of others stretching to accommodate them and their failure to “sweat the small stuff,” so the person and/or their plan doesn’t go off the rails.

The white folks in the replies trying to insist OP is wrong is exactly why y’all should stop talking about woke. You don’t know what it means. And when someone Black tries to tell you what it means, he’s accused of mansplaining a lifelong activist. Just absolute shit.

If you're a white dude with some flexibility in your life, get a group of your like-minded bros together & go to these events to act as counterbalance to these "private security forces." Get in their way. Occupy space. Ask for their IDs. Outnumber them. Make their fascism difficult.

For those following the story of unidentified men violently dragging a protester from a local Idaho GOP meeting, it turns out they were from a private security firm called LEAR Asset Management. But neither the sheriff (who watched it all go down) or the GOP will take responsibility for hiring them.
