Having worked in media, I can actually believe he doesn’t read every piece they publish. I’ve known editors who read every single word of their publications before print, and those who focused on the big picture and trusted the senior staff to do their jobs. It varies, and a big daily like the NYT publishes so much…

Its editorial, not news, so he had plenty of time to do his absurdly well-paying job of, you know, editing. NYT is a great newspaper, but their editorial staff and management should be sent back to junior college where apparently their critical thinking skills were stopped dead half-formed.

In case anyone missed this detail that emerged this morning:

Appreciate you shedding light on the civil war going on in the coven between the pragmatic (older) witches who believe in the “all” and the Young Wokes who prioritize “fit” in “All The Babies Fit To Eat.”

The casual way the cop pushed the man over and the way the other cops only looked down to make sure they weren’t getting blood on their jackboots says this was just business-as-usual, another day at the office.

Yeah, I recently saw a video of someone filming a cop beating up someone else, and the cop tells the person filming to “Back the fuck up” and shoves them. People were like “Well, they were disrespectful!” but like, a barista cannot tell someone to “Back the fuck up” and shove them. Any person working customer service…

You can see one of the cops go to help him and immediately get yanked back by another officer. I cannot even. 

I love how they rush forward to attack the people trying to help him.

This is what happens when someone has no fear of accountability of any kind.

You left out a key element of this. The official report first stated that the man “tripped and fell”... that Is, until the video emerged.

“Two officers have been suspended”

Yes. Trump is behind in Ohio and Texas (!) is a statistical tie. Biden could conceivably hit 400 EVs. But Hillary was ahead at this point too. So, no complacency, people.

Nonetheless, Murkowski was stirred. “When I saw Gen. Mattis’s comments yesterday I felt like perhaps we’re getting to the point where we can be more honest,” she told the reporter, adding that perhaps conservatives might harness “the courage of our convictions and speak up.”

Oh, would you look at this:

Firing the Chief is not nearly enough. If they were given a order and not doing it, drop the hammer on every last one of them. As long as the rank and file cop feels they are protected, they will continue to do as they please.

Fuck those pigs. They should find out who they are and fire them. They're in uniform, that doesn't protect them from the first amendment.

“Bill De Blasio has never been very popular with the people who voted him into power...” Yet he won his first term with 69% of the vote and his second term with 62% of the vote. Not too shabby.

The media has a fetish for Susan Collins Lisa Murkowski’s guileless republican women act. Journalists love to invent a conscience for these women despite all evidence to the contrary. 

Participation trophy. Competition for that particular honor is fierce in the GOP.

“I am struggling with it. I have struggled with it for a long time,”
