I do captioning for a living, & a big part of my job is cleaning up false starts & filler words. That has always been the norm at every media outlet. Print media edits Trump so carefully that you would never know what he actually sounds like. Doing this to Biden is a 180 from decades of policy.

one of trump's strokes of genius (and yes I think he is an evil genius) is just not having any written policy positions any time anyone says "so you support X" he can just say "no I don't" he does it over and over again, and the media never calls him on it

Just like none of the bold investigators backfilling Joe Biden's feeble debate performance with punchy anonymous quotes have ever figured out why Trump was rushed to Walter Reed, claimed he wanted a spur-of-the-moment weekend checkup, and a year later declared that he had NOT had a series of strokes

The discourse around biden needing more sleep is fully insane. Does no one remember "Executive Time," the thing Trump spent the majority(!) of his schedule on where he would just watch TV and tweet? Dude was categorically unable to fulfill any of the demands of the office and the press barely cared

Google’s emissions are up 48% in 5 years. Microsoft’s are up 30% since 2020. Those soaring figures are being driven by mass investments in data centers to power AI tools. Generative AI is a climate disaster and data center expansion must be stopped.

There is just no evidence in the piece, and scant reporting in general, that Biden is anything less than fully effective as President. Yes, the cabinet could remove him if he were incapable, but there’s no sign of that. Indeed, he’s remarkably accomplished given the 50-50 Senate and GOP House.

Remember how the "retail theft crime wave" disappeared as soon as companies had to do their annual reports? That's because it's illegal to lie to shareholders.

The ONLY reason the press is still going nuts about all this random grumbling is because they've got NOTHING ELSE. This election is a slam-dunk, no brainer and they know it. There's absolutely no question which candidate should be president, but that doesn't fill columns or a ten minute news segment

So not only does the NYT “I don’t vote” guy long for a monarch who will end all abortions, he voted in the last two elections. These are not serious people. They are, however, deadly.

Very Serious People can't resolve the cognitive dissonance involved in the knowledge that Trump was involved with Epstein's pedo ring and so pretend its a conspiracy theory or didn't happen. Trump inexplicably gave the guy who let Epstein skate a cabinet post! All out in the open!

It's pretty interesting what the media decides is front page news and what they don't decide is front page news! Trump being a child sex abuser with close connections to Jeffrey Epstein somehow doesn't merit the same coverage as "unnamed Dem insider has concerns about Biden's age"

Via @silvermansecurity.bsky.social — Adam’s right. This is an important and utterly on point nested thread.
Elite political journalism will not cover the election as an event with meaning beyond the horse race and to some extent, the desired outcome of the tax-me-not class (their proprietors).

Absolutely, and let me tout my less-radical-than-it-seems suggestion of what to do about SCOTUS: sortition. Only the role of the chief justice is constitutionally enshrined. Write a Judiciary Act prescribing that the other seats get filled by a yearly random draw from the courts of appeals.
