Ann!

I am SO glad you are back.

Many of us do not bother with the msm bc of their inability to communicate.

I voted for Trump twice and would luv the truth.

Now I am kindly asking him to step aside for younger, ivy league, military trained leaders like Governor DeSantis and/or Tulsi Gabbard.

Sick of Trump & Biden's pissing contest 🙄

Speaking of the msm.

". . . younger, ivy league, military trained leaders like Governor DeSantis and/or Tulsi Gabbard."

Happy to vote for DeSantis, and respect Gabbard, but not for most people in the "younger, ivy league, military trained" net, a net that before they aged would have included both Bushes and Lindsey Graham. And Biden's pissing contest isn't directed mainly at Trump but at America itself (pissing, for example, on Independence Hall, with staging by Leni Riefenstahl, though Leni surely wouldn't have allowed an aged, decrepit Hitler to be led to the podium by Eva Braun).

Well-sad.

Journalists these days use a version of plug-and-play that is used when "writing" a story. It's called cut-n-paste.

A product of that kind of "writing" is -- "Election Fraud" is always right behind "Baseless". When they dutifully cut-n-paste while "writing" their article, the last thing on their mind is ---- "IS THIS RELEVANT OR TRUE".

Exactly! When every "news" story slips in that the claims of election fraud were "baseless" you know that they are reading from the same script and you also know that they are afraid that if they do not continue to pound this narrative, people might start to think.

But isn't the NYT just in on the game. They know the only reason to even be investigating Trump is to make the 2022 mid-term elections about Trump, not about the Dems.

None of this is because they don't know what they are doing, it's because they know exactly what they are doing, and it isn't journalism.

And the dump Republicans are stuck on inflation and tax breaks. I'm with Ann, Crime and Immigration are the issues, but the Republicans won't touch them. There's that $1,000 bill on the ground and they absolutely refuse to pick it up.

Ann, with all due respect, I believe what you are asking for used to be called 'critical thinking skills', 'journalistic integrity' and 'basic professionalism', all of which I seem to recall have been judged as being racist and White Supremacist by those who shriek the loudest among the self-appointed champions of The Feral Class, chief among them the NYT. You have identified one of several reasons why I'll never give a DIME to the NYT and am eternally grateful that you are willing to regularly put on your ultra-stylish hazmat suit and bravely lower yourself into the gaping, toxic maw of The Grey Lady to inform us of their latest lunacy.

The only way we'll be able to encourage Journalism schools to drop 'activist (hard Left) journalism' as a cornerstone of their curriculum is to make it unprofitable for them to stay their course, and I'm not seeing that on the horizon When MSNBC, CNN, NPR and others can go on for decades consistently at the very bottom of the ratings pile it seems apparent that there's enough of a market for them not only to exist but to thrive there. Despite the occasional and increasing frequency of stories about massive layoffs at the NYT, the WaPo and other tentacles of the cancer I never, ever hear them introspectively wonder if maybe, just maybe, the reason why increasing numbers of Americans HATE them is because they're wrong.

My hope is that there will eventually come a time when the bosses & shareholders of the legacy media corporations will tire of zealously guarding their spots on the invite lists to the swanky anti-American cocktail parties in Manhattan and bravely venture into the New World of Professional Integrity. Can you imagine a CNN that tried to give Fox News a run for their money? All it would take would be for the bosses & shareholders to decide that they want to make some REAL money for a change and the fight would be on. Replacing Anderson Cooper with Ann Coulter would be equivalent to setting off a nuclear weapon in journalism schools and would be a spectacular push to reform journalism everywhere. We can dream, can't we? ;-)

In the meantime, your articles exposing the chronic infantilism of the NYT will continue to embarrass them and drive subscriptions down. Maybe one day they will be shamed into doing better.

Yep, the NY Times has been taken over by crazy leftists. So what can we do? I recommend we completely ignore it and read real news elsewhere. My favorite is Epoch Times.

I do find it interesting that in GA/PA/AZ/WI Trump got ~111,000 fewer votes than did the GOP congressional candidates while Biden got ~295,000 more votes than did the Demo☭rat congressional candidates

If Trump and his sycophants told potential donors that there was election fraud when he knew there was none as he was advised if he listened, then if he solicited funds to correct the election fraud he knew was false, then he us himself guilty of fraud. Basic application of law of fraud to raising money under false pretenses.

If only Trump were a man of his word, like Biden. Biden told the Ukrainians they weren't getting the billion dollars if they didn't fire the prosecutor, and son of a bitch, the prosecutor got fired and Biden got his 10% from Hunter. Two guys you can do business with. Same with Hillary, and as Comey said, sure she destroyed evidence and invented the whole Russian Collusion Hoax out of thin air, but no prosecutor in his right mind would bring charges. It's a strange world when conservatives worry about Trump's alleged fundraising "fraud" (because political fundraising is subject to strict fiduciary law, and candidates who don't deliver as promised are routinely and successfully sued for fraud) but not the blatant frauds and more serious crimes committed daily by every Democrat and most Republicans.

Get on The View and debate Crist. The left is in war mode. Don’t bother with want it both ways Maher. It’s going to be a rocky 2 months. I trust you to represent my politic. Being a kanamit not relevant. Trump and Bannon relevant.
