TYT brings up a good point about Section 219 of the NDAA.
Would merging the US military with the IDF who ordered the murder of their own people under the Hannibal Directive, mean that one day our military will be used against Americans?
WATCH (especially the end of the clip)
@SpeakerJohnson Why don't you people who hate America get out!!!!
You're so anti-American and want to change everything about America! You hate our constitution! So LEAVE!!!!!
Remember when Diana DeGette told a pro-Palestinian constituent to not vote for her in the primary.
Well, the ugly witc lost her seat.
Congratulations to Denver DSA's Melat Kiros for defeating Diana DeGette in the Colorado primary.
@SwannMarcus89 As the saying goes..."democrats fall in love (with their candidate - or they don't) and republicans fall in line" so they vote for the repug candidate no matter what. Been this way as far back as I can remember and I'm pretty old...
It is fucking crazy how right-wing this country has become in the last 15 years. The Democrats have to run the most reasonable normie to ever live so they can win a swing district by 3 points against a wife-beating Christian Nationalist who got rich scamming nursing home residents and thinks black people look like that because Satan left them in the stove too long
Hi @NYTimesPR, thanks for responding. Appreciate it. I'm a subscriber and I think some of your reporters do some great reporting.
Just to respond to your response to my post:
1) There were no facts "misstated" by me. You cited three examples in response. Only one of them was about specific *named* GOP House members (and it wasn't from "yesterday", it was from a year ago.) So I stand by my post.
2) As others have pointed out already, none of the 3 articles you cited have the names of any GOP individuals in the titles ("Right-Wing Republicans" "a Kansas Republican" "G.O.P. Fingerprints"), in comparison to your original "Who is Darializa" takedown piece. Where is your "Who is Brandon Gill" or "Who is Keith Self" or "Who Is Randy Fine" or "Who Is Mary Miller" critical profile pieces? How about "Who is Tom Emmer," given the GOP House Majority Whip just a few days ago spewed racist crap about Somalis? And where are the Peter Baker tweets summarizing *their* most controversial claims?
3) This isn't a new criticism. Many have made it against your paper for many years; that you go harder on the left than the right, that you even occasionally whitewash the far right. Remember when you had to do a public response in 2017 to a NYT profile that went super soft on a... Nazi? https://t.co/IF6DhTwcrp. Remember when you guys did a softball piece about a far-right, Islamophobic Trump aide's love for cooking? https://t.co/dp0Sf9PQg9.
Oh, and dare I ask: where are the fawning 'Trump voters' in diners' equivalent pieces for DSA members in NYC bodegas? Isn't it time?
4) Finally, that your response to my post was to proudly say you guys at the Times have "been documenting the increasingly extreme viewpoints on both sides of the political spectrum" kinda makes my point for me. One side's extreme wants universal healthcare and an end to genocide. The other side's extreme says Somalis are "garbage" and wants "remigration", mass deportations and white supremacy.
But, hey, "Both sides!"
Karl: Republicans are going to make you the poster child for the Democratic Party.
Mamdani: Let them.ย
We donโt have to ask ourselves what life looks like if a socialist wins. I won last November, and over the course of these last six months, what weโve delivered for working people are the very things we were told were impossible.
Weโve delivered free child care for two-year-olds for the first time in New York City history. Weโve delivered tens of millions of dollars back to tenants who were taken advantage of by bad landlords. Weโve delivered 165,000 potholes being paved. And weโve done all of these things while also delivering the lowest recorded crime in our cityโs history.
Thatโs what it looks like to have democratic socialism. And what youโre seeing is that New Yorkers experienced this for six months and made the decision that they wanted to see more of it on the national stage as well.
In case you havenโt figured it out yet...
Trump just dropped more bombs on Iran right after a federal judge ordered the DOJ to hand over UNREDACTED Epstein files theyโve been keeping HIDDEN.
The same week independent journalist Katie Phang won her lawsuit FORCING Acting AG Todd Blanche and the Trump DOJ to unredact key Epstein documents, suddenly weโre โretaliatingโ in the Middle East again.
How many coincidences until itโs mathematically impossible?
Maybe Vance doesn't know this history because it's in one of the books his administration banned.
The difference between Watergate and now is that back then, Republicans actually did something about a law-breaking president. Today, they only roll over for their cult leader.
