Seriously, CNN? Do you need to show us Donald’s plane taking off?
The media should have learned its lesson after its failed coverage of the 2016 election when empty podiums and planes idling on the tarmac were deemed newsworthy.
Yet, here we are again and the media is making the same mistakes all over.
Donald Trump will be arraigned tomorrow in a New York City courtroom to face 34 charges—that’s what matters. How he gets to the courtroom isn’t news.
The media’s insistence on covering every aspect of this man’s life to the exclusion of all else is one of the reasons this country is in such dire straits.
Enough.
The American federal legislature is non functional literally the minute Republicans take over. That sounds like the kind of thing that one says in the heat of the campaign, not as a statement of fact on Opening Day.
More than 160,000 US children have been hospitalized for COVID and at least 1556 have died. Kids 6 mos or older are eligible for vaccination and those 5 yrs or older are eligible for the updated bivalent booster. Tens of 1000s of new hospitalizations could be averted. #KidsFirst
@AlexLepretre @JoJoFromJerz The Bureau is fantastic, unfortunately largely unknown to English speaking audiences, but it's one of the very best shows I've ever seen!
1/ It's 23 days until the midterms. Postcard writing is effective at turning out the vote. Postcards to Voters is a group that's effective & easy to get involved with. I signed up this morning by texting “join” to 484-275-2229. Abby, the address bot, has me ready to write.
Hitler did not operate the gas chambers himself. But he was responsible.
Bin Laden did not fly the planes himself. But he was responsible.
Trump did not storm the Capitol himself. But he was responsible.
Justice matters.
If you give me two more Democratic senators, and Democrats keep the House, I promise you we will codify Roe v. Wade.
We will once again make Roe the law of the land.
We will once again protect a woman’s right to choose.
I can’t believe we’re still talking about this, but my emails…
As Trump’s problems continue to mount, the right is trying to make this about me again. There’s even a “Clinton Standard."
The fact is that I had zero emails that were classified.
After Brown v Board of Ed, White Mississippians left Jackson, rather than have their children attend school w Black children. Black families were left behind & the tax base necessary for infrastructure improvements + repairs was decimated. This water crisis = the legacy of racism
