Adam Liptak should be fired for this. It's not some sort of minor technical error or a debatable issue. He's simply lying.

Lifetime emissions of ICE cars are greater than that of EVs, even when the EV is built using energy from a fossil fuel grid. Power plants & EVs are much more efficient than ICE vehicles. An ICE car spews emissions its entire life as more fuel is burned.🧪🔌💡

Every big media organization was so crossed-up by Trump winning in 2016 that they have been behaving and hiring as if Long Island-Coded Suburbo-Racist Sociopathy was on an unstoppable ascent worldwide, and interpreting everything backwards from there. It turns out most people actually hate it!

The biggest issue with Biden coverage is that he’s now The Story, which means that most of the press is focused on The Story and not any of the context or consequences. If we were having a serious discussion about qualifications for presidency, age, and the two main candidates, I’d be fine with it.

I need to write the whole piece about this, but the thing to understand is that the NYT is now just Facebook. The platform dictates narrative to normies, is totally gamed by the right, and is still so ubiquitous as to be unavoidable even by those who see how broken it is. It's just Facebook.

“Politics would be interesting again,” is a hell of a thing to say generally and also, for these commentators, obviously untrue. Nothing about any replacement process will be as arousing to them as the prospect of forcing the renominated president out of the race with enough poison pen columns.

In 2016, Hillary Clinton gave a speech in Wisconsin about the importance of the Supreme Court.

She warned that 2016 was "make or break" for the court—and the country.

National media—focused on her emails and Trump's antics—barely covered the speech.

So theoretically if Biden says "for the good of the republic I am arresting these coup-ing Supreme Court justices" he probably won't get away with it but when Trump is back in power and says "gotta hang those woke lib bitches on the Court" he will get immunity for it yeah? This is where we're at?
