I do recommend this article and remind people when the Obama White House tried to call out Fox News for not being legit, the DC press corps rose up to defend Murdoch’s propaganda outlet; newyorker.com/magazine/2019/…
that basically set this conversation back 10 yrs
that Fox News is a cancer on America seems to me to be a blindingly obvious story, yet it’s one that’s been told in slow motion for years by mainstream press
folks were too busy typing up all those Megyn Kelly profiles?
instead of serious debate abt dangers of Fox News over last 10 yrs, lots of folks in the press played silly game of pretending only *parts* of Fox News were bad, or that MSNBC was the ‘liberal Fox News’ etc

nobody whines quite like Chris Wallace; nytimes.com/2019/03/07/bus…
I love the idea mythical Dems who watch Fox News won’t be able to see any of the 12 Dem debates airing elsewhere!
see how the game is payed? NYT makes sure *not* to press Wallace abt New Yorker revelations re: how Fox fed Trump Q’s during 2016 debates and how Fox killed Stormy Damiels story bc Murdoch wanted Trump to win

i noted this earlier this week, idea that many voters are going to care abt Biden policy from 40+ yrs ago are slim. (I don’t make the rules folks!) voters barely care abt policy from 4 yrs ago; washingtonpost.com/politics/biden…
I.e. can anyone point to a presidential campaign that was tripped up bc of quotes or votes from 40+ yrs earlier?
I don’t think the primary will be a referendum on the Biden ‘70s or the Sanders ‘80s. I just don’t think that’s what voters care abt—we’ll see!

1. This hasn't gotten a ton of attention by the White House has WAIVED federal ethics laws to allow new White House Communications Director Bill Shine to coordinate freely with Fox News.

2. White House Counsel Don McGahn, in a stunning memo, explicitly says that the White House's need to collaborate with Fox News is more important than concerns about integrity.

3. Look, it's not secret that Fox News is a GOP mouthpiece. That's why it was created.

But during the Trump administration it's become something very different.

It's a state-run propaganda network.

You must remember that the secret to all of this is not to be afraid of fear. When you can really allow yourself to be afraid, and you don't resist the experience of fear, you are truly beginning to master fear.

1. I have no doubt that Obama will be indicted and found guilty of at least THREE major felonies, just from his central involvement in the framing of Donald J Trump

<THREAD> CONFIRMED: The Israeli intel firm Black Cube used to go after Harvey Weinstein’s accusers also targeted me & @brhodes (& our families).

Lots of new details in this new @RonanFarrow piece. newyorker.com/news/news-desk…

Was this authorized by the Trump White House? 1/10
The Guardian piece from yesterday suggested that “aides to President Trump” hired the firm last May to dig up dirt on us as part of an effort to discredit the Iran nuclear deal.

Is that true?

theguardian.com/uk-news/2018/m… 2/10
Let’s start with the FIRST thing we know: Despite Black Cube’s BS dodge/denial 👇, the evidence shows they went after me by targeting my wife & attempting to collect derogatory evidence with the goal of arming *someone* with info to discredit proponents of the Iran Deal. 3/10

Trump Hotels' website still lists Trump SoHo New York among its properties in the Our Hotels menu. Select its name though to access its page and there's a message about it being renamed

Two errors in the 2nd graf of Breitbart's Trump Hotel DC article:
-holdings aren't out of @realDonaldTrump's hands: trust isn't blind & he can profit from it
-Trump Org told Congress it was estimating foreign receipts—not auto donating in full

President and Mrs. Trump are dining at the Trump Hotel DC right now.
It’s a 7:41 drive from the White House to the Trump Hotel DC (with a motorcade; slower for you).
