It pains me to think the New York Times may have truly jumped the shark. They’ve moved from sanewashing Trump to straight-up helping him with his racist, authoritarian agenda with headlines like this.

Kilmar Abrego Garcia is still disappeared.

Thank god these kids survived. All I can think about is Tamir Rice and how he never would have had this chance. abc7.com/post/shockin...

Should have been over 6 months ago, but this is still a big victory for democracy.

The staff of a program that helps millions of poor families keep the electricity on, in part so babies don’t die from extreme heat or cold, have all been fired. The office overseeing the enforcement of child support payments nationally has been hollowed out.

So we’re all clear that JD Vance killed the Pope—*on Easter*—right?

Personally, I think it should be front page news for at least a month if a sitting US President is using falsified evidence to try and deny due process to a man who has committed no crime, but that’s just me

If someone will lie about who won the 2020 election, why wouldn't they lie about other important things? Why would we take anything they say at face value?

While the entire world sees the stock market crash, Fox News doesn’t cover it and instead posts an insane tabloid headline & graphic—which links to a story w a totally different headline, which buries within it what I guess is the source of the initial headline: some random bullshit Trump tweeted.

jesus christ they want her dead

A 2024 GAO report found the IRS netted a savings of $13,000 for every additional hour spent auditing wealthy individuals’ tax returns. Watch reporter @andykroll.bsky.social break down how DOGE cuts to the IRS could cost more than DOGE will ever save ⤵️ 📽️: @josesepulveda.bsky.social

KEEP CALLING. PEEL OFF ALL DEM SENATORS YOU CAN. ☎️: (202) 224-3121 Tell them to vote NO on Cloture and NO on CR. Vote is pushed to after 1:15ish for now. Situation is fluid. The only public YES votes are Schumer and Fetterman. They need 7-8 total. KEEP CALLING. Call retiring Senators too!

I’m the one always begging people to vote for Dems bc we at least have a chance to organize under them. But with Schumer folding, I might be done. If you can’t stand up for us against Trump/MAGA/Republicans in this moment, WHAT’S THE POINT? @schumer.senate.gov @aoc.bsky.social @democrats.org

these people swore an oath to defend the constitution but i guess that’s just too hard

💯 @aoc.bsky.social

Why have we just given up calling out Fox News as the primary cause here, instead of acting like it’s some unfathomable mystery?

Hahaha Trump actually thought artists were gonna let him have his name over their work. His feelings are apparently big hurt that they’ve all rejected him, and he’s trying to explain it away.

If DOGE is a federal agency, it can’t shield its records from the public. If it’s not an agency, then its tens of millions of dollars in funding weren’t legally allocated and should be returned, some contend.

It’s truly dismaying that @nytimes.com @washingtonpost.com @cnn.com @cbsnews.com @nbcnews.com are “reporting” on Trump attacking Zelenskyy and not mentioning Trump was IMPEACHED FOR TRYING TO EXTORT ZELENSKYY.

Seriously a very good take pointing out the capitulation and failure of the media. @onthemedia.bsky.social

I’ve become a huge fan of @karaswisher for her understanding of how Musk operates and her calling out the media on the failure to appropriately cover him. Especially love her appearances on @ezraklein and focusgrouppodcast. FOLLOW HER!! @onwithkaraswisher.bsky.social

Fox touted Trump's campaign promise to quickly lower prices. Now both Fox and Trump are backtracking as prices increase.

@covid19disease.bsky.social USDA’s bird flu tracking site isn’t working. Musk at “work”? www.aphis.usda.gov/livestock-po...

@ajc.com I hope you’ll be covering this censorship of Greg Bluestein as front-page news.

“free speech”

gravedigger of american democracy. a more malign influence than john c calhoun.

Important moment to remember Musk admitted lying about wanting to build a “Hyperloop” only to stop California from building high-speed rail. Trump & Musk care only about one thing: their own pockets and power.

The Washington Post refused to run this ad. Sure would be a shame if it went viral.

Loving that when it shows up small in the app, @aoc profile pic looks like she’s taking off her earring to fight. Not intentional, I’m sure, but apt, and I’m here for it!

Rally against Jefferson Griffin's attempt to steal the NC Supreme Court election AND Trump-Musk's coup at the NC state Capitol. @commoncausenc.bsky.social @carolinafederation.bsky.social @scsjofficial.bsky.social @democracydocket.com @lincolnproject.us

Hey @nytimes.com @washingtonpost.com @nbcnews.com @cbsnews.com @abcnewsgo.bsky.social @cnn.com @foxnewscorporation.bsky.social @politico.com @economist.com this is a factual, newsmaking statement that could be a headline AS IS. Why aren’t you saying it?

1/29: First plane crash in 16 years in DC 1/31: Crash in Philly 2/5: Delta flight struck in Seattle 2/6: Flight wrecks in Alaska 2/10: Crash in Scottsdale 2/12: Military jet crashes in San Diego 2/16: Crash in Covington, GA 7 crashes since the WH congratulated itself for “restoring aviation safety”

i know they are doing it, you don’t have to tediously remind me, but the illegality still matters

@jamellebouie.net wondering what you think of this idea and can you amplify? Could be @petebuttigieg.bsky.social @repjasmine.bsky.social @aoc.bsky.social @robertgarcia.bsky.social Time for us to stop relying on the press to find the stories; instead have 1 solid place the public can get info.

Totally agree with this. How about it @petebuttigieg.bsky.social @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social @schumer.senate.gov @repjasmine.bsky.social @aoc.bsky.social @democrats.org ? Time of us to stop relying on the press to find the stories & to have one solid place the public can go to get info.

a maximalist strategy of opposition against every nominee as unqualified would have stood a better chance of creating the kind of public outrage that might have led to more republican defections, but i'm sure the imaginary family that chuck schumer relies on to guide his decisions disagreed

"[For the Right], D.E.I...is the mere presence of a woman or nonwhite person or disabled or transgender person in any high-skilled, high-status position. And their alternative isn’t some heretofore unknown standard of merit; it is the reintroduction of something like segregation." (gift link)

Sorry to complain about another NYT headline but there is absolutely no reason to call this an "Efficiency Team." Cutting public programs to pay tax cuts for the ultra wealthy is not efficiency 🤦‍♂️

Pretty damn good framing for Dems

Last September, when the FAA proposed fining SpaceX $633,000 for alleged violations, Elon Musk threatened to sue the agency for “regulatory overreach.” Now, as DOGE chief, he may control his regulators’ fate. By @heathervogell.bsky.social

Right-wing media have targeted the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau even as it has saved working Americans tens of billions of dollars www.mediamatters.org/project-2025...

NEW: ProPublica has identified nine additional Musk-affiliated staffers. A former staffer at Boring Company now has an official role at DOGE in the Executive Office of the President. A former X employee now works in the General Services Administration.

Imagine if @aoc @sanders.senate.gov , every dem, SIMULTANEOUSLY held Town Halls where they allowed grant and contract recipients to explain to the country what it is they do and why it's important Invite all media. Including RW podcasters. @spaces Flood the zone Call it a Day Of Transparency

We need to all be telling Dem Congresspeople like @robertgarcia.bsky.social that we support them in doing exactly this: Deny ALL votes and shut down meetings to stop Musk’s rampage through our government. apple.news/AkSSn3EB2T7m...

Hell yeah. Hold the line. This is what we need people to do. Slow things down, don’t comply in advance so the courts have time to stop them. It’s starting to work.

The guy whose cars crash 2X more than others is about to take over the FAA.

JANELLE MONAE!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Awards shows are bullshit. But they can say a lot about who we are and what we value. I’m watching the Grammy’s in the hopes of seeing Beyoncé win Album of the Year finally, after being snubbed for Lemonade and Renaissance. The level of her craft; her constant innovations; 🧵

This is a hostile takeover of the federal government by a private citizen of unlimited means with no restrictions and no transparency. Welcome to the Deep State www.reuters.com/world/us/mus...
