college students are overwhelmingly not Republican

so Florida passes law instituting campus surveys and if they find students are are overwhelmingly not Republican, they'll begin defunding colleges
can't make this stuff up
imagine being so fragile abt the minds of college students, that the Gov has to pass a law so they don't become "indoctrinated"
GOP has completely given up trying to persuade young people/voters

now they mandate laws and defund schools that have too many liberals on campus

my latest — they’re part of the problem; pressrun.media/p/how-the-medi…
“The whole controversy is fabricated, and it’s getting a ton of media attention. It’s the kind of media attention that plays right into the hands of conservatives.”
the press constantly ignores 2 stunning facts:

1. critical race theory isn’t taught anywhere in US schools

2. GOP has no idea what critical race theory is

it’s a cult. part infinity
critical race theory isn't taught in a single public k-12 classroom in this country and these mindless maniacs are getting arrested at school board meetings to protest something that's not being taught.

definition of witch hunt.
reminds me of the 1980's hysteria over preschool molestation cases that were fabricated by crazed parents

as GOP kills voting rights bill, lots of theater criticism for Biden coming in — he should have acted differently!

bc more speeches def would've changed GOP's mind.
Obama spent six months on one of the most elaborate public campaigns to get background check bill passed after Sandy Hook — countless speeches form him, his wife, his VP, public forums.

GOP couldn't have cared less
blaming Dems for GOP's radical obstruction has become time honored Beltway tradition

my latest — stop doing this; pressrun.media/p/cnns-valenti…
“CNN framed the report as a Both Sides one: Supporters see Ashli Babbitt as a patriot, while liberals see her as a terrorist. CNN then proceeded to **completely ignore the liberal perspective for the entire Babbitt report**”
“The CNN misfire was a classic example of what happens when journalists land sought-after interviews, in this case with members of Babbitt’s family, and then spin the story in their favor. They tell the tale just as the interview subjects would want it to be told.”

hard to describe what a mess WP has become in Biden era.

In 2,000-word article abt GOP attacks on CRT, not one Dem is quoted.

**nowhere** does WP mention GOP wants to ban CRT from schools even tho it’s not being taught anywhere k-12; washingtonpost.com/education/2021…
WP: GOP has new campaign issue!!

WP: no, we’re not going to quote any Dems
8 Republicans quoted

O Dems

how does journalism get this bad?

number of Democrats quoted in this story: 0
the entire premise is Abbott bashing Biden administration

incredibly, WP doesn’t include single quote from anyone in Biden administration
WP border coverage continues to be a mess

me, last month; pressrun.media/p/the-washingt…
