This illustrates how Ds are allowing Rs to control the narrative, and you simply can’t win that way. It’s Don Draper 101 by both sides — if you don’t like what’s being said, change the conversation.
Honestly, this may be one of the most important media graphs I've ever seen.
The claim: Democrats keep using annoying words.
The data: Republicans CLAIMS Democrats use them, which then becomes the narratives.
Then centrists attack DEMS for things GOPer CLAIM they say, not GOP for making stuff up.

Republicans expressing concerns about Medicaid cuts in the spending bill is akin to Tony Soprano expressing concerns to Dr. Melfi. No matter what they say, by the end of every episode, they are going to kill somebody.

"So if the media were going to put their thumb on the scale – as they inevitably do – they ought to have done so in defense of democracy, the rule of law and human decency. The failure to do so is playing out in our shattered world."

Yes, the media’s Biden coverage was flawed. But its reporting on Trump was far worse | Margaret Sullivan
A new book has fueled controversy over press handling of the ex-president’s decline. But that distracts from a bigger problem

JD Vance on a peace deal for the war in Ukraine:
“The Russians are asking for a certain set of requirements, a certain set of concessions in order to end the conflict. We think they’re asking for too much."
Uh.
Maybe you and Donald shouldn't have repeatedly done Putin's bidding then.

Today marks the 250th anniversary of the battles of Lexington and Concord, which began the American Revolution. Our nation was founded on resistance to arbitrary authority and monarchical power. We built a democracy in the face of impossible odds. We must continue to protect it.
