The MSM being owned by billionaires, very profit driven, it soaring during the Trump admin, diving under Biden admin, makes it clear that Trump is good for business Other than that, I genuinely think "journalists" enjoyed the chaos of the Trump admin, and don't want normal, boring politics anymore.

Next: Biden appoints someone to take over the Education Department, because he isn't up to the task!

They're really scraping the bottom of the outrage barrel, seems like this is going to be unsustainable to maintain until November

Hey, everyone who keeps downplaying the role of media framing, you know we can *literally* measure this happening, right? Your denialism doesn't make it go away, and you aren't smart enough to somehow evade it.

"Results indicated both news formats (narrative vs. informational) and frames (environmental vs. economic) had significant immediate effects on issue attitudes and other responses; narrative environmental news had a significantly greater impact than informational environmental news." #CommSky

people have this bizarre perception of the centrists in europe "being further left than [enter anglosphere left-wing party here]" because they tend to support the welfare state. to be as clear as I can be: Macron has tacked right on immigration and security, far to the right of Labour or the Dems.

Shut the fuck up, shut the fuck up, shut the fuck up.

You should not package the elections of other countries as "lessons" for US voters. Shut the fuck up.

I’m still not a big fan of this type of journalism, but it’s nice to see it being practiced somewhere other than a white diner.

“Among eight Mount Airy congregation members interviewed, none thought Biden should concede the nomination to another member of the party. “I think it’s a little late in the game for them to start switching people out,” said Danayah Randolph, 21, of Philadelphia.”

Should Biden drop out? What his supporters said at a Philadelphia Black Church where he campaigned Sunday.www.mcall.com Here’s what supporters of President Joe Biden had to say about the increasing calls for him to end his re-election bid.

I don't get it when people point out that Project 2025 is "nothing new." Yes, obviously, right-wingers have been fanatics for decades. They were blowing up abortion clinics and shooting doctors when I was a kid. But, as you may have noticed, their political vision has kind of been coming together.

I just learned that some people have “barf bowls” and like… why can’t you puke in the toilet or a trash can like civilized people

This shit is Biden dropping out is being pushed by the Whitest men you will ever know.

The Narrative™ can't fail, it can only be failed

Some people keep saying that the media will keep hammering Biden's age because, well, he is only getting older! But if replaced by Kamala, it's not like she will stop being a woman or a Black person either! And guess in what the media will focus on the next few months if she is the nominee.

So I got great news this Sunday. In the average polling from RacetotheWH, for the first time since November, so like 8 months, Biden has taken Michigan. Also, since then, he has again Wisconsin and Michigan. Also, as you can see, the reddest swing state is Nevada. And boy do I look those chances.

The Narrative™ can't fail, it can only be failed

It seems very clear to me that the only ones pushing for Biden's resignation is the media and journalists who despise Biden. The Washington Post is printing lies.

I mean. But what I feel we're getting away from is that the paper just went with it. Maybe I'm crazy, but I feel like they should verify what they print? And these are Politico reporters. Not exactly in the tank for Biden.

Chuck Schumer is related to Amy Schumer... What

So for all the narrative about the inevitable slide into anti-immigrant populism, four of Western Europe's five largest countries now have left or center left governments?

If you have actual evidence that Biden has Parkinson's like e.g., lab results, put up, if you only have speculation however degreed, shut up. This is actually really easy.

hoo boy gonna be a big fucking thumbs' down from me on LGM publishing breathless speculation about biden having parkinson's based on the speculation of doctors who know good and goddamned well that they can't and shouldn't try to diagnose people who aren't their patients through the fucking tv

Yet again, we see the loudest yelps of “1776 BAYBEE!!!” from Christian Patriots who don’t know the first fucking thing about the history of the country over which they claim to have exclusive ownership. 2 out of 8 ain’t bad, I guess.

Demoralizing the right is always good

In 2025 with the new Dem congress, one of the first policy to pass is something to fund local newspapers. Like, that's literally something that would cost what, $10 billion of the budget? Like nothing. And it would be fucking amazing. For democracy, for information, for anti corruption measures.
