I believe Benny was Biden admin hopeful alternative

Everyone in the aftermath said Bibi was done. I was skeptical

Now Benny’s party is irrelevant and Bibi is still in power

I don’t think this is “going to work” but it appears right wing billionaires are following the same playbook.

Create right wing content. Own the distribution and have the algorithm force feed this down everyone’s throats

Doesn’t have to work bc they are loss leaders for billionaire power

Everything that's wrong with legal journalism in one New York Times headline and pie chart.

If all these "legal experts" are so shocked by the threats to the rule of law, maybe they're not the experts we should be asking in the first place.

All of this was foreseeable. Many forecast it.
NYT headline: "Bow to the Emperor: We asked 50 Legal Experts About the Trump Presidency." Pie chart showing over 50% of surveyed legal experts saying that Trump's second term has posed "much more threat" to the rule of law "than I expected."

Guys, every person you see on Fox News in a mask is just Robert O'Neill, retired Navy Seal and occasional Fox News contributor. He's the former Antifa, former Gazan, former gang member. His eyes are very unique.
