Thanks for posting this. In what can only be ironic, when I tried to read another El Pais article, I was asked to subscribe … and a prompt to sign in … via Google … popped up.
It is 90° in Silver Lake, and though the humidity is only 49%, it feels worse, and worse than when I moved here (because of climate change). My late fellow Texas ex-pat John Gibson would describe it as "vile." I think he is the only person I knew/know who used/uses that word. But it was spot on.
He’s great; he gives me hope. He’ll work hard for all Texans. But this ex-pat won’t be moving back. Have you checked state politics or minimally today’s weather there?😇
Every copy editor I worked with on five major newspapers would have known that there’s no such thing as a “ceasefire” when the parties are still attacking each other. But that was in the old days of journalis.
Ids there any hope for "the truth" when mainstream media like the NYT keep referring to a "truce" while hostilities continue?
Despite its flaws lately, credit where it’s due, for the framing in this headline:
A bit of drama in Silver Lake today as fire department helicopters tapped the reservoir for water to help put out the Boyle Heights fire.
The NYT glorifies Musk and SpaceX and its soon-to-be millionaire employees, while playing the inflation story far, far down on its home page. Because the struggles of every day Americans are not that important when compared to the 1 percenters'.
Can you imagine the fit the NYT (and the rest of the MSM) would be having were Biden or Harris sending "conflicting messages"?
If you are wondering how DJT got elected, may I offer this: A friend sent a link to a YouTube video about "15 major changes" that Pope Leo made. There are 330 comments, virtually all expressing belief. They apparently didn't see the disclaimer or do a simple Google search
I have rarely if ever reposted a screenshot of a DJT post. But this one proves he is a vile, empty, soulless, ignorant narcissist without a single redeeming trait
Will never forget The Beatles concert in 1965 I saw with my sister and her friends ... and for only $5!!
Everyone of these (with the possible exception of Kansas City) is a blue city. So where will he move all of these games? Tulsa? Biloxi? Tallahassee? Mobile? Cheyenne? St. George? Sioux Falls? Lincoln?
