Heck, he was de facto murdering them in the first regime. And when the New York Times was informed that they needed to us foreign embassy's to get their international reporters out of danger because the US wouldn't, they sat on that information.

And I WAS a reporter, in many ways I wish I still WAS one, but I’ve seen so many good people forced to leave an ever-contracting industry - and the good ones who still bravely remain are constantly treated like shit by their brain-dead fourth generation Ivy League bosses.

I firmly believe a lot of them are actually too dumb and smug to figure out that that’s the only way they stay alive before it’s too late.

U.S. journalists will certainly get to experience panic if they help usher in a second Trump regime, in which they’ll very quickly get to experience the excitement of being a reporter in, say, Russia.

Too many US reporters are too bone-ass stupid to realize that they’re going to be among the first thrown to the lions by an unleashed Trump regime, on *principal*.

I legitimately don’t even think the US political journalists (who aren’t already openly MAGA) have any intention of kissing up to Trump, either - they’re legitimately so incredibly naive that they think Trump will just let them keep doing their thing, saying whatever they want.

American political journalists nowadays are so stunning provincial that they can’t even imagine an *extremely likely* reality in which a second Trump regime starts murdering them. They are the absolute last people who should want the U.S. to function like Putin’s Russia.

If you're so concerned about the stakes of this election you could just... spend the next four months writing about the stakes of this election. A constant drip of articles calling the Democratic nominee unfit is also not a great strategy for winning!

Sticking with Biden or running Harris would be *far* less risky than dedicating two of the next four months to Democrat infighting, followed by an unprecedented delegate voting process and dubious chances of even getting on the ballot. Knowing this shit is supposed to be these people's job

I used to at least weakly defend American political journalism, but that ship has fucking sailed. They are utterly dangerously stupid.

This level of societal anxiety was every day of Trump's presidency for four straight years, and it says nothing good about our most prominent journalists that they are jonesing for it like heroin junkies going through withdrawal.

"Politics would be interesting again." Yeah, half the country would be having nervous breakdowns and fighting with each other loudly and publicly for the next four months, I'm sure that will be very good for the national psyche.

The Biden Campaign needs to blare this constantly. Trump is a pedophile who openly associated with Epstein.

Private equity is claiming the few specialties it hasn't already ruined, to fill space left by the systems they've bankrupted, and there's at least one data hostage situation affecting care somewhere in the US every week. Learn everything you can about low resource care or at least first aid.
