Can you believe the NYT fact-checked this from Biden’s ABC interview? The torrent of lies Trump tells and they’ve doing this petty bullshit on Biden.

Here's Jasmine Crockett interrogating one of the other board members of America First Legal, Gene Hamilton, colleague of liar Stephen Miller, about writing the DOJ contribution to Project 2025. x.com/cardon_brian... Hamilton's doc: static.project2025.org/2025_Mandate...

Really feels like Team Trump knows that too many in the complacent - and complicit - media will let them lie with impunity so they do. Blatantly. Shamelessly

There's a simple reason Trump, Miller, and MAGA have decided that they need to disavow Project 2025 immediately. Plausible deniability. Swing voters hate Trump, hate his policies, and hate Project 2025. But they remember how bad he was at the job. They get that the wall was just schtick.

I want to explain how Project 2025 is essential to the Trump campaign and the only way to understand it. But first, let's do something the press refuses to do in 2024: Take Trump's threats seriously. Think about the core message of his first post-1/6 rally, delivered deliberately in Waco, Texas.

Stephen Miller now following Trump's lead and saying he has nothing to do with Project 2025. 1. His organization is on the Project 2025 advisory board. 2. He recorded a video as part of Project 2025 training tools 3. You can see Mandate for Leadership, the Project 2025 publication in the background

It’s wild how the political press does some much writing about peoples’ perceptions while hardly ever acknowledging they’re one of the main drivers of it.

News Analysis: When Donald Trump was found guilty of 34 felonies, the U.S. was confronted with a historical novelty: a felon who once held the highest office in the land. Will the label actually tarnish Trump, as it has so many people over the centuries?

Holy. Shit. They're literally saying Trump's felonies aren't that bad compared to the "real felonies". Bear in mind, they're ignoring J6 and "gimme 12000 votes" call and the stolen docs. We joke, but this is literally Newsmax copy.

If Biden said something like this it would spell the end of not only his campaign but his current tenure. It's just one of countless examples of insane gibberish from Trump that the press & Democrats are choosing to treat as an immutable part of the electoral landscape rather than a story or issue.

I mean, I know this is useless to say almost but if Biden were retweeting right now a meme grown out of a violent conspiracy theory movement that says Republicans and Hollywood are running a satanic pedophile cult, he’d be immediately forced out but it’s Trump so media & politicos are all 🤷‍♂️

There is an imbalance between what is news and what news orgs believe news to be, and this whole Biden-must-step-down cycle, now more than a week on front pages, is a prime example of that. Notice the breadth of this-from news to opinion-and lack of balance on Trump and the right wing power grab.

A day later the NYT continues its wall-to-wall coverage on Biden's candidacy. Still waiting for the "Trump should bow out" coverage. On the day we celebrate our independence from a king, and 4 days from when SCOTUS sets up the possibility of a king, this is what our media is focused on.

Project 2025 as a brand has two components. 1) A blueprint for governing, in the form of the document Mandate for Leadership 2) An effort to recruit, screen and train new Trump appointees. Other Trump officials like Johnny McEntee and press secretary Karoline Leavitt are involved in the latter.

Surely reporters will be asking Trump and his campaign to identify the things on Project 2025 he disagrees with and what part are "absolutely ridiculous and abysmal" His own people wrote the fucking thing. So get the answers. Obsess over this for a change

And put stooge Stephen Miller on camera to discuss the matter since he is one of the architects of Project 2025. What's abysmal? And while they're at it, ask Trump how he plans to vote on the Florida abortion referendum. He can't get away with bogus "I sent it to the States" answer on that one.

Trump also said, “I don’t know anything about David Duke” in 2016, and “I know nothing about QAnon,” in 2020. This is his go-to move.

Well @amandamarcotte.bsky.social nailed it Trump just wrote "I know nothing about Project 2025" Of course, he's lying. Key players from his team, like Miller and Vought, are on the Advisory Board. McEntee said they'd "intergrate" their work That's he's trying to create distance is a huge tell

Johnny McEntee, one of Trump's most loyal deputies who is in regular contact with him, is literally one of the people collecting resumes for staffers who would implement Project 2025. Shame on any journalistic outfit who takes this "truth" at face value.

Today in "Trump didn't write this, someone on his campaign staff did." I don't know if Kellyanne Conway is working for Trump these days but this feels more like her style, voice, and syntax than Trump or those posting on his behalf recently.
