NY Times assistant managing editor Patrick Healy gives an unacceptable answer when Marisa Kabas asks him why the NYT's Epstein story this week omitted a new rape accusation against Trump. Healy admits the accuser's past allegations on Trump were deemed credible enough for the Times to print them.

@markjacob.bsky.social posted a great video today on that other site, you know the one, asking voters to "vote against all Republicans."

PS: Will try to locate that video, or perhaps he'll post it here soon?

Are mainstream media afraid of a vindictive Trump?

🧵 @markjacob will not forget. Neither should the rest of us
🧵🧵🧵
I’m not forgetting that federal agents executed Renee Good and Alex Pretti in the street and got away with it.
I’m not forgetting that the Trump regime is still covering up the Epstein files.
I’m not forgetting that Trump’s Saudi friends murdered journalist Jamal Khashoggi.

In 2016, I asked whether the modern press was doing as good a job of portraying the stakes of the election as the newspapers of 1800. The question still remains. www.zocalopublicsquare.org/2016/10/10/t...

Project 2025 is an effort by the Heritage Foundation, not Donald Trump | Fact check
Though the project includes people in Trump's orbit, he said he is not involved with the effort. Project 2025 said it doesn't speak for any candidate.

My new On-Target video with @markjacob explores how Trump and Musk are dismantling the consumer watchdog agency created by Congress. Their goal? Undermine financial scrutiny, further enrich themselves and their cronies—in short, screw over everyday Americans.
