    Republicans tried to suppress Black urban votes. Then Republicans tried to throw out Black urban votes. Now Republicans want to simply ignore Black votes. White supremacy is the GOP’s most consistent motive and tactic — and that should frame all news coverage about their party.

    2 House Republicans tell me they expect as of now that at least 140 Republican Members of the House will on Jan 6 object to and vote against the Electoral College results showing President-elect Biden won

    If you, a powerful media gatekeeper, ever find yourself using that power to tell people with less clout that their entirely legitimate critiques of *bad work* are hurting people’s feelings well then you are a powerful media gatekeeper having a normal one.

    Americans almost unanimously want more Covid aid. How many of them are being made aware that one party shares this desire and the other party is fighting furiously against it?

    What BuzzFeed management says and what BuzzFeed management does do not always line up. Please read this thread about how 2020 went for us in the :

    Right now is speaking with our staff about BuzzFeed’s successes in 2020. Workers throughout the company deserve praise for helping the company hit profitability, but layoffs and the lack of progress we've made toward a contract has us feeling unsettled about this year.

    There’s a 9/11 of new dead every day at this point but every one of the top stories on Fox News’ home page is Republican posturing. You don’t get to record-setting covid deaths until 8 screens down, the 21st article. Here are their “top stories” while Americans die en masse.

    The sad part is that it’ll probably work — “neutral” news outlets will ramp up attacks over total BS scandals to avoid being considered too liberal

    The vast majority of Fox News's programming today has been scolding the media for not being hard enough on Biden

    Republican leaders are determined to kill thousands of Americans whose deaths could be prevented this winter purely because they wanna undermine Joe Biden as much as possible

    Did I miss all the stories about the 78 million Biden supporters who triumphed — and their wants and needs — and how rural-centric Trump supporters need to reach out and understand the massive urban/suburban majority in America?

    Unacceptable. Dave Meinert doesn’t get to hype his business in the like he didn’t assault multiple women. might be bored with , but I can assure you women in Seattle are not

    For anyone reading in the today, don’t be fooled him willfully ignoring that Dave Meinert sexually assaulted & attacked *at least* 11 women & that Meinert is a predator; he is & Mike Seely knows he’s a predator.

    Blatantly lying about the election to seize power and ignoring Americans who suffer and die in a pandemic isn’t “Trumpism.” It’s just regular old “Republicanism.”

    We begin healing when we have had the courage first to diagnose and confront the depth of the illness and what we need to make true healing possible. So please, no bromides now. Because we are not out of danger.

    AOC begging the Dem establishment to let her help them but being rebuffed because they’d prefer to lose rather than work with her is too perfect

    If you think we should listen to John Kasich instead of AOC, you’re actually a Republican.

    Easy to mock and is stunning to see, but it really illustrates the dire financial state of many news orgs. This ad is probably crucial to paying salaries and printing — how facts are delivered. Support your local news org and demand change from the Google/Facebook ad duopoly.

    Yes this is outdated and irrelevant now but this speech really destroys the Republican claim that Biden is sleepy and incoherent
