Obvious narrative biases pushed by mediocre NYT editors who all "DEI" hired each other
"Working class" luxury pickup truck owners, but not POC
"Faith voters" but not the most religious group, Black Americans
"Elite" doesn't apply to the party of the world's richest families
"Midwest" means White

Marco Rubio And Trump's Border Czar Defend Deportation Of U.S. Citizen Children
Both men said the children weren't deported... they just went with their mothers.
Every Senate Democrat voted to confirm Marco Rubio.
Every single one. They should never live that down. Yes, that includes Warren and Sanders and Booker.

i would even argue it's pretty common for Americans to see what's happening in Gaza as a genocide. NYT reporters and the visual investigations team have documented aspects of that genocide well.
The owners and editors just don't want anyone to call it that.

The fact that that so many Americans understand the term perfectly well when used in reference to, say, "Russian oligarchs" but can't seem to apply the same logic to our own country even when it's staring them in the face, is endlessly frustrating

Attorneys with one of the stateβs largest public defense law firms formed a group text chat that they named βF*** tha policeβ accompanied by a pig emoji, court filings show.

Just a reminder that no state - not Israel, not the United States, not Russia, not China, not ANY state - has a right to exist.
People have rights to exist. But states and governments are legal fictions. As such, their "right" to exist persists only insofar as they serve the people.

Hereβs the truth: White Americans β white men especially β who didnβt need to compete against a broad-based pool because of gender and racial discrimination; who have long enjoyed access to neighborhoods and networks, jobs, clubs, and government programs that systematically excluded others; and who continue to enjoy the presumption of expertise even when they are far outside their depth β have long been the original beneficiaries of race and gender-based affirmative action in this country.

If gender were not performative, why do so many people become angry, livid, foaming at the mouth threatened when you donβt play the part they expect you to? If it werenβt performative, nobody would care because your behavior wouldnβt cause them to question theirs.

Itβs time for a comprehensive national civic uprising. Itβs time for Americans in universities, law, business, nonprofits and the scientific community, and civil servants and beyond to form one coordinated mass movement. Trump is about power. The only way heβs going to be stopped is if heβs confronted by some movement that possesses rival power.
Guys, this is David Brooks in the NY Times. If it's like this 90 days into this presidency with people who wouldn't be caught dead saying it last year, imagine it in two years. Something good is happening, we just have to lift everybody up so they can see it.
