I need to write the whole piece about this, but the thing to understand is that the NYT is now just Facebook. The platform dictates narrative to normies, is totally gamed by the right, and is still so ubiquitous as to be unavoidable even by those who see how broken it is. It's just Facebook.

This @politico.com article quotes Trump's former HHS Office for Civil Rights director, now serving as VP of domestic policy at Heritage Foundation and an author of the HHS chapter of the Project 2025 Mandate for Leadership on the CDC's credibility crisis. www.politico.com/news/2024/06...

It seems like just yesterday that lawyers were telling me there was no way the immunity decision would have any bearing on his state cases.

Lawyers in my mentions are the most in denial about what happened at SCOTUS today. They're coming up with all kinds of perfectly logical reasons why Trump's state cases wouldn't be taken up by SCOTUS eventually.
