In advance of tonight's debate, my simmering contempt for JD Vance boiled over, so I offer this reminder that none of us should even know who this contemptible little man is. https://www.findinggravity.net/p/none-of-us-should-even-know-who-jd

Did you know that on Wednesday Mitch McConnell went to the Senate floor to blast the "cult of personality" his fellow conservative have formed around Viktor Orban?

Probably not! Neither the NYT nor WaPo has published anything about this. But I have! --> https://www.findinggravity.net/p/mitch-mcconnell-blasts-gops-cult

Donald Trump threatened to jail me (and maybe you.) The New York Times doesn't care.

NEW, from me: Even while debunking Donald Trump's lies about Haitian immigrants, the news media is privileging those lies and giving Trump exactly what he wants.

NEW: The New York Times has run "opinion roundups" featuring outside writers after each night of the 2 conventions, and after this week's debate. Nine such features total -- and *every single outside writer with clear ideological leaning is conservative.* https://www.findinggravity.net/p/the-new-york-times-republicans-only

Highly recommended, from @foser. It will make you laugh while also reminding you of some things to be angry about. https://www.findinggravity.net/p/the-trump-musk-alliance-is-about

I wrote about the real explanation for the deepening Trump-Musk alliance: Their shared thirst for power and mutual hatred for transgender people, women, and immigrants. (Not, as the New York Times insists, a mutual interest in cutting wasteful spending.)

New York Times publisher AG Sulzberger’s piece in the Washington Post today is a true and important warning. If he really believed it, the newspaper he publishes would behave differently. https://www.findinggravity.net/p/the-new-york-times-publisher-understands

There’s a history of the media helping to “swift-boat” Democratic candidates, which is what Vance is trying to do to Walz. @foser explains: https://www.findinggravity.net/p/breaking-the-new-york-times-helps

I absolutely hate to be the "PLEASE RETWEET" guy but this is important and urgent. https://www.findinggravity.net/p/breaking-the-new-york-times-helps

The New York Times is helping JD Vance swift boat Tim Walz by privileging Vance's lies.

The real story is that JD Vance is lying about a fellow veteran's military service for political gain.

Maybe now that they don't have Biden to kick around the news media can pay some attention to Donald Trump's praise for Victor Orban and Kim Jung Un and what that says about his plans for America? https://www.findinggravity.net/p/the-totalitarian-tell-in-trumps-unity

The New York Times still has not run a single news article about Donald Trump's convention speech that mentions his praise for Victor Orban & Kim Jung Un.

New from me on what Donald Trump really means by "unity" -- and on the news media complying in advance.

"America’s most important #news companies have abdicated their essential role in democracy. Even if Donald #Trump had delivered his speech exactly as prepared, never deviating a bit, #media coverage of his speech that touted his calls for #unity would still be terrible #journalism. That’s because Trump’s calls for unity are not sincere, and simply running a politician’s insincere claims as banner headlines is not journalism, it’s #advertising"

Donald Trump just embraced the deeply unpopular Supreme Court, walking right into a trap.

(by me) https://www.findinggravity.net/p/breaking-trump-walks-into-bidens

The Supreme Court is Donald Trump's real running mate. Democrats should act like it. (By me.)
