The most junior copy editor at the nation’s worst college paper could find a way to squeeze “which killed an estimated 40 people” somewhere into these top 6 grafs of the NYTimes story.
It was a conscious decision to bury it in the bottom half.

@nytimes.com The closed captions on your videos are blocking the journalist’s name and it’s quite frustrating. I think one is by Nicholas Kristov but I can’t see his name. I can recognize Jamelle Bouie but his name is hidden by the closed captions. It’s important.

A Mad King has usurped the power of Congress—which represents the American people. That is, he has seized power that belongs to you and me collectively. He has declared war without consultation with or approval from Congress. And with no imminent threat. This is a profound betrayal of the republic.

Increasingly it appears that Trump was a pimp.
WOW! New reporting by WSJ today that Trump sent his spa workers (young woman) from Mar-A-Lago to Jeffrey Epstein's despite knowing he was "sexually suggestive and exposing himself." In other words Trump committed SEX TRAFFICKING.

Mar-a-Lago sent an 18-year-old spa worker on a house call to Jeffrey Epstein in 2003. She complained to her bosses that Epstein pressured her for sex.

Why? Because reporters speak truth to power.
I wrote this column about the aggressive pushback our reporters have received for doing their jobs.
Our Reporters Reached Out for Comment. They Were Accused of Stalking and Intimidation.

Our journalists reach out to people they’re writing about to ensure fairness. But in this environment, they’ve found their efforts to do so are more likely to be vilified than appreciated.

America has 925 billionaires as of this year. Collectively they have a record $6.9 trillion in wealth.
The bottom 50% of Americans control $4.2 trillion in wealth.
When 925 people control more wealth than half a country’s population, we have a very serious problem.

This video will probably get fewer likes than my posts on taxing billionaires. That difference says it all. Factory farming only survives if we don’t look. It’s time to hold these companies accountable. Every donation is matched, so $1 becomes $2 through Dec 31, 2025. Donate: MoralAmbition.org/food
