Shockingly Trump's New York Times covering the general strike in Minneapolis (they have previously ignored all collective action left-of-center, while feting any collective action right-of-center). But, of course, they make a big show of spreading Trump Regime propaganda in their lone article.

People: straight facts and context
NYT: lies

NYT includes Trump Regime lies in headline every time because they are collaborating against US.

Justin must be watching a different speech than the the NYT, which is portraying Trump as forceful leader for his ambitious agenda (safe to assume Justin, who does not suffer from a serious case of false-equivalency, is correct here).

Either NYT editors & journalists are idiots or they are actively collaborating with Trump by using their legitimacy as leading “center-left” publication to sanewash & normalize a madman trying to destroy our economy & security & freedom by waging war against Europe under criminally absurd pretense.

I think about the cartoon all the time. This unspoken idea that Republicans have no agency over the horrible things they do to US, that it is always the Democrats responsibility h/t @mattbors.bsky.social

NYT thinks their main job is to amplify Trump Regime’s disinformation to US in an impartial frame: they believe that unnamed Trump Regime officials are the most important and trustworthy sources of information for US.

NYT is horrific: (1) Democrats call to abolish death squads way worse than Republicans running death squads (2) Trump generally loves protests (just not against him) (3) Rural people love government killing annoying city people.

NYT has two types of articles on the brutal Trump occupation of Minneapolis (1) both sides (always leading with Trump’s side) (2) just Trump’s side. But mainly they are just downplaying the story, because it is too hard to both-side it.

NYT quotes DHS in their headlines even though NYT knows DHS are degenerate liars because NYT hates truth & democracy & rule-of-law.

Blue lines good.
Red lines bad.

NYT got Trump to lie to them for hours last night, it was so cool! Biden never did that! So they sanewashed the rambling “interview” into many articles praising how cool it is for them to have access to the president, and how awesome Trump is. They are collaborating for peanuts.

Lying, despite video evidence, works: NYT, WaPo, CNN all leading with version of Trump Regime claiming that cold-blooded murder of innocent woman was "self-defense"
January 8, 2026 at 12:58 AM
NYT landing page right now:

1) Trump is so cool!
2) Trump says that his paramilitary did a great thing shooting that lady, who are we to question the word of the President?!?

NYT both-siding ICE murdering innocent lady: one hand {obvious lie} by degenerate lying Trump Regime, other hand {truth as shown in many videos} by MN government, who can tell which side is correct?
January 7, 2026 at 8:15 PM
NYT has upgraded from just printing Regime's lies, to both-siding the cold-blooded murder.
January 7, 2026 at 6:48 PM
I have seen multiple videos, there is no questions that this ICE officer committed cold-blooded murder. DHS already released a statement *lying* about the cold-blooded murder, praising the murder. Corporate Media (eg NYT) amplifying their lies. The videos are widely available to refute their lies.

NYT lost, NYC won!

Fun to see NYT take the L!

Washington Post’s articles are just a cleaned-up version of Trump’s racist disinformation rants.
December 31, 2025 at 7:43 PM
They keep telling US that this is hard truths, but it is just Republican disinformation.

NYT IS COLLABORATING.
December 27, 2025 at 1:43 PM
US President is an obviously disturbed person (beyond corrupt, uninformed, authoritarian, incompetent). Everyone around the world knows this, except many Americans, because Corporate Media *sanewashes* him.
December 26, 2025 at 7:05 AM
Fox News Washington spreading Trump disinformation against US. We know this is less than 1% of the file, redacted, has obvious fraud, or as @washingtonpost.com tells US: thank you Trump sir, we love you!

Economy tends to do badly under Republicans and well under Democrats.
