B-Man Posted May 11 Posted May 11 7 hours ago, Thurmal34 said: Thanks for confirming my point. Meanwhile: James Bennet had a brilliant takedown of the Times last December. In it, he said, “In my experience, reporters overwhelmingly support Democratic policies and candidates. They are generally also motivated by a desire for a more just world. Neither of those tendencies are new. But there has been a sea change over the past ten years in how journalists think about pursuing justice.” How so? He wrote, “Illiberal journalists have a different philosophy, and they have their reasons for it. They are more concerned with group rights than individual rights, which they regard as a bulwark for the privileges of white men. They have seen the principle of free speech used to protect right-wing outfits like Project Veritas and Breitbart News and are uneasy with it. They had their suspicions of their fellow citizens’ judgment confirmed by Trump’s election, and do not believe readers can be trusted with potentially dangerous ideas or facts. They are not out to achieve social justice as the knock-on effect of pursuing truth; they want to pursue it head-on. The term objectivity to them is code for ignoring the poor and weak and cozying up to power, as journalists often have done.” Journalists abandoned objectivity, throwing that precious shield from charges of bias just to spite Donald Trump. People outside of its hard core readers have found new sources of information, largely through Twitter. Journalists can throw temper tantrums on the floor about misinformation all they want, but after the media promoted the Fake Covid Vaccine and ridiculous masks, most people no longer believe them nor should they. https://donsurber.substack.com/p/we-dont-want-journalism-back https://www.economist.com/1843/2023/12/14/when-the-new-york-times-lost-its-way

You can shower them with videos and facts and they will never budge. Such is the tragedy of demoralization. It's irreversible. None of these idiots are worth your time. 1
B-Man Posted May 15 Posted May 15 I was going to write, "unbelievable" But then I realized that it is.

B-Man Posted May 17 Posted May 17 Reuters Discovers Trump's Super-Secret Plan to 'Control the Department of Justice' ED MORRISSEY And that would be ... winning a presidential election. No, seriously, that's the plan. Donald Trump becomes president, and then appoints people to set prosecutorial priorities and statutory interpretations at the Department of Justice and the FBI. For some reason, Reuters labors under the impression that this would be the first time a president has done this Quote Some of Donald Trump's allies are assembling proposals to curtail the Justice Department's independence and turn the nation's top law enforcement body into an attack dog for conservative causes, nine people involved in the effort told Reuters. If successful, the overhaul could represent one of the most consequential actions of a second Trump presidency given the Justice Department's role in protecting democratic institutions and upholding the rule of law. It would also mark a dramatic departure from the department's mission statement, opens new tab, which identifies "independence and impartiality" as core values. Ahem. In fact, double ahem. The current Attorney General has demanded executive privilege over a recording of a deposition of Joe Biden in a criminal investigation. When did Special Counsel Robert Hur become a presidential advisor? At the same time, the DoJ is using another special counsel to pursue felony indictments against Joe Biden's opponent in the upcoming presidential elections, having waited nearly three years and until Trump became the clear GOP front-runner before taking any action on those cases. And let's not forget the DoJ's attempt to cut a sweetheart plea deal for the president's son that was so embarrassing that a judge threw it out and forced Merrick Garland to actually prosecute Hunter Biden. How'a that for "independence"? https://hotair.com/ed-morrissey/2024/05/17/shocker-reuters-discovers-trumps-super-secret-plan-to-control-the-department-of-justice-n3788566

Orlando Buffalo Posted May 19 Posted May 19 https://www.newsweek.com/florida-rent-drops-people-flee-state-1901951 People are fleeing the state according to the headline, but they admit later on that the state is experience a net influx. Honestly I am assuming the lower cost is due to it being more one bedrooms vs larger apartments because I have spoken to several people who are still seeing increase in cost of anything decent. 1
BillsFanNC Posted May 20 Posted May 20 This is why Biden's debate terms insisted on no RFK. Because RFK hurts Trump.
