@EricBoehlert is it bad form when @mattbai (in an extremely irrelevant puff piece about former Sen. Bill Bradley) cites HIMSELF for the narrative that Biden has "anemic" approval ratings?
washingtonpost.com/opinions/2021/…
Is @mattbai the worst, laziest opinion writer on the planet?

He cited himself AGAIN, linking to his 10/25/2020 Biden hit piece! 3 columns linked to HIMSELF!

referred to himself as "Everyone who knew anything dismissed Biden..."

and "We were wrong"
washingtonpost.com/opinions/2021/…
@mattbai's awful dispatch about Biden during final days before Election Day 2020...

Bai again using the royal we: "We never gave Biden the credit he deserved"
washingtonpost.com/opinions/2020/…
Bai doesn't seem especially sensitive to stutterers: Biden's "speech interrupted by a childhood stammer that's now returned"

totally glossing over what makes Biden a champion of the underdog & why so many Americans empathize w/Joe from Scranton. He's overcome so many obstacles!
"No one's going to put his face on T-shirts or dorm-room posters"

there aren't any Biden t-shirts? Really? I'd love to buy one!

People don't put President photos on their dorm room walls anymore, do they? Did they ever?

Why did Xi Jinping want to be Chinese Dictator for Life?

Maybe the other options in a demographically-doomed declining economy where he's not in control were too risky for him and his family?

China’s population is shrinking, fast

Jefferies "estimates China’s population will peak in 2022, which is almost 10 years earlier than UN estimates."

Holy $hit, look at that graph

Beijing Olympics 2022 could be peak of their population?

Who would want to raise children in a Surveillance State, anyway?

Why did the Boston Globe pass on Phil's story in 1998?

Thankfully, Martin Baron published in 2002

To reverse-engineer Moderna's secret vaccine formula!

Great timing...

"The unionization drive at Starbucks comes at a time of growing leverage for workers. Labor shortages have rippled across the country, and Americans are quitting their jobs in record numbers, whether out of frustration or in search of better opportunities."
