Democrats gave us a soft landing from a worldwide recession and the best performing economy in the world, among other things, and they were voted out. Is that what they deserve shame for? Delivering as much as could be hoped despite only having a majority for 2 years? That?

Elon Musk donated $277 million to Trump so he could steal the federal government’s data, dismantle the nation’s infrastructure, and stop foreign aid from going to nonwhite people. It’s a quid pro quo breathtaking in scope, corruption, and damage, & completely unprecedented in American history.
Bye bye, “DOGE”.
It no longer exists as a “centralized entity”, according to the Office of Personnel Management.

This is a story about how America’s world-leading cancer and dementia research system was destroyed by frauds and naifs who broke the law.

Some incredible details in this piece
*one DOGE faction was planning the future of the US government at a venture capital firm
*illegally communicating on Signal to avoid transparency laws was deeply embedded into organizational culture to be taken for granted

So many journalists circled their wagons for this person, this person who declared Biden had dementia bc he didn’t recognize her, and she writes like a very dramatic self-centered 13 year old. This is part of the TEU, the Trump extended universe, the world’s worst class of people.

Deeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeep, deep rot. It’s all maggots on the inside. Good gravy burn The NY Times to the ground.
I am reminded of how Olivia Nuzzi's evidence for Biden's senility was that he didn't remember who she was. The kind of narcissism that gets you promoted to the upper ranks of U.S. political journalism.
The prose is incoherent & the only way to make it through a paragraph is to rely on the North Star or her self-pitying narcissism. The gist of this graf is “strangers obsess about me, must be because I work so hard,” but it is almost immediate lost in the morass of “typed on notes app while hiking”

Why can’t people be normal and rational about anything? Everything has to be blown out to an extreme, except for the stuff that is actually really important like, oh, I dunno, keeping republicans out of the White House.

So you think this is a list of people who knew Epstein was a pedophile and not a list of people who said “yeah, maybe” when asked by someone if they’d participate in some vague new show where public figures discuss stuff?
