Trump 2.0 could not have worked out better for the media. I mean, they get to play the martyr while DOJ corruptly investigates them, there's a heavy dose of reality TV via a Fox News host cos playing as an ambassador, lies from DOD, and the spectacle of a public execution!

Trump Admin hires private equity guy at DOD. Months later, guy's former employer gets a $281 million *no bid* contract to consult for him. Pro Publica is running circles around every other news outlet when it comes to chronicling the obscene level of corruption going on right now

Dunlow is in Wayne County, West Virginia. Wayne County went 76/22 (!) for Trump in 2024. Congratulations on getting exactly what you voted for you fucking idiots.

Not sure I'd be at a rally where people were cheering in support of Hamas, but that's me and if I was Mayor Mamdani, I'd probably rethink 1) attending events like this and 2) the message he's sending by going to them.

When the Supreme Court says you're above the law and the media happily surrenders its objectivity in service of maintaining access the incentive structure to engage in this kind of grifting is quite high!

It would be great if the U.S. media did some investigative reporting on our own President, who dozes off constantly in public, has bruised hands, swollen ankles, and saw no less than *22* doctors at his last visit to Walter Reed.

Two weeks ago, the media wouldn't shut the fuck up about how Trump was wantonly stripping them of their FIRST AMENDMENT RIGHTS (TM) and now that DOJ lawyers are actually asserting Trump can do it, the Paper of Record buries it in a blurb along w/Fox ditching Dave Portnoy 🙃

One of the signature things about Trump's wanton violations of laws and norms: the first time it's a MASSIVE OUTRAGE and then it's just ... accepted. Where is the media solidarity? The STERNLY WORDED TWEETS ABOUT THE FIRST AMENDMENT? Nowhere, b/c all they care about is access

Reporters DEMAND the right to be in his presence every day and never once ask him why his right hand looks like it's about to fall off. 🙃

In a normal world, a massive data breach exposing the personal information of FBI agents would be a "-gate" level scandal complete with Congressional investigations and calls for resignations, but since we live in a reality show now, this won't be a story by tomorrow 🙃

One whole week of a PRINCIPLED STAND FOR THE FIRST AMENDMENT (TM) before the media caved. Shocking they even held out that long considering they crave access to Trump like the rest of us need oxygen to breathe.

It's a sad commentary on America that so many were so willing to bend the knee - universities with endowments in the billions, law firms that print money, corporate media whose rights are enshrined in the Constitution- making business decisions it was more expedient to buy him off than fight.

It's not tenable for the health and long-term well-being of our democracy when we have to be like "yeah, this Supreme Court decision regarding voting rights looks terrible but look on the bright side, it can't be implemented in this election." Can't survive this way.

It's pretty clear now that the Republican strategy for the next 40 days will be SAYING things that are mildly critical of Trump without DOING anything to back those words up and just letting reporters do their spin for them.

One of the many reasons I have ZERO sympathy for reporters whining about Trump kicking them (or their colleagues) out of the White House. They ignore this shit every day after spending four years doing armchair medical diagnosis of Joe Biden.

scarylawyerguy.bsky.social @scarylawyerguy.bsky.social · 24/09/2026
Defying a court order and denying reporters access to the White House right before you hold a media availability with the leader of an authoritarian nation that does not have a free press is just a little too on the nose.

The one policy reporters ignore their supposed rule of not editorializing about is, unsurprisingly, that any attempt to limit their access to Trump is blatantly unconstitutional 🤔

Very considerate of the NYT to run interference for Susan Collins w/o explaining whether these "senior" FBI officials who scuttled the investigation were career officers or Trump appointees and then casually mentioning more evidence may have come to light if they dug deeper 🙃

Give Pro Publica ALL THE FLOWERS for doing actual investigative journalism while the rest of the mainstream media has abdicated that role in service of sane washing the actions of a wannabe dictator.

Combo of aggressive border enforcement + a (lengthy) path to citizenship for people already here who had no criminal records was in a bipartisan bill Biden negotiated w/Republican Senator James Lankford that Trump told Rs to kill so he could run on the issue in 2024. Completely lost to history

He treats this all like a reality show. The press treats this all like a reality show. When we call them out for treating this all like a reality show, they tell us we don't know what we're talking about. 🙃

Watching reporters hoist themselves up on a cross so tall it can be seen from outer space after gargling Trump's balls in their mouths for the last 10 fucking years is really a sight to behold 🙃

Did I miss the outrage on the left over this or do they only care about Hakeem Jeffries meeting with Jared Kushner? SO HARD to keep track of their situational politics.

There's just no coming back from this for the press. Like, when Trump leaves office, their entire business model is going to collapse. Les Moonves was right about one thing, Trump is awful for the country but great for the media.

There's nothing the press loves more than LOUDLY asserting their 1st amendment rights so they can squander those rights every fucking day by lining up to kiss Trump's ass.

Can someone who follows the dipshit left more closely than me let me know what they think of their lord and savior making common cause with Steve Bannon when all we heard about was how they refused to vote for Kamala Harris b/c Liz Cheney endorsed her?

I think you give the press WAY too much credit. If anything, his willingness to play the inside game will accrue to his benefit as the Times has shown it values access far more than governance and if you don't believe me, compare their coverage of Trump to Biden.

Remember when Obama lightly criticized the Supreme Court's decision in Citizens United during one of his State of the Union speeches and not only did Alito shake his head in disagreement, the media went after Obama for ~ violating norms ~

Thanks to Trump's incompetence, Iran and its proxies now control two of the biggest choke points for oil tankers that literally keep the global economy moving and Trump's response is to go watch a golf tournament in Ireland. Media shrugs.

Neither Dems nor the media directly blamed W for 9/11 (even though there was ample evidence he was asleep at the wheel) as compared to tragedies like Benghazi and 13 soldiers who died during Afghanistan withdrawal, which Republicans w/the media's help, pinned on Hillary & Biden respectively.

Economic dumpster fire and no one asking Trump what his plan is to fix it b/c the media doesn't expect him to actually do the job, just show up in front of the cameras every day and feed them their daily dose of content.

Both the reddest and bluest states (and congressional districts) also have a not insignificant number of voters of the other party. If those voters are highly motivated they can swamp a disengaged majority of the other party, which is how wave elections happen.

Not sure if it's the difference in the media environment or the fact this is all being done openly not covertly, but things that helped bring down the Nixon Administration (who also polygraphed staffers after the Pentagon Papers leaked) is met with a shrug 50 or so years later.

No clearer proof of the "horseshoe" theory of politics than a leftist calling Hakeen Jeffries a "monkey," saying she didn't mean it in a "racist" way, and then trying to wrap herself up in the civil rights movement as proof she is beyond criticism.

I don't get to barf out my opinions on the home page of the New York Times like Michelle Goldberg, but I just think as a party, we should aspire to more than incubating the "Rush Limbaugh of the left" and holding "trolls" close. In fact, we should *reject* people of that ilk.
