NYT is showing a cultural bias in favor of oligarchy.

The only thing that trump shows genius with is being a complete and utter failure of a human being.

ETTD is a truth. (Everything Trump Touches Dies)

He fails at everything. He destroys everything he touches. He hates everyone.

He is the Spawn of the Devil. I guess my disdain is showing again.

It’s not like your disdain hasn’t been well earned. ETTD for sure for sure.

As a longtime NYT subscriber, I am getting close to the end of my rope with them. I’ve parted ways with MSNBC. Not entirely sure where to turn for news

There seems to be a genuine conflict within the NYT newsroom on how to approach this. I just wish they'd resolve it either way.

Turn to MTN on Substack and other good journalists and commentators. Jim Acosta also has daily news programs on Substack. I do not watch any MSM news or read any newspapers. I get news bulletins from ABC News as they stream live for free. I never read or watch anything about politics that they have, because they caved to trump, but I do keep up with important non political happenings.

If I turn off Javascript, I can still read the NYT articles if I must, and they don't get any money for my reading them. It's also completely legit, because turning off Javascript just makes the web page similar to what an accessibility browser would give me.

Excellent analysis!

Anyone who listened to Trump’s West Point commencement address knows that he is anything but a genius! (And what’s with the baseball cap, anyway?)

Love Jay Kuo.

Thank you for this article. I am so happy that I ended my digital subscription to the Times. The gentleman asked me why I was canceling and I told him that they were favoring trump and that I loathed trump. That was well over a year ago.
