1) 95+% of schools are open. bars, restaurants filled, football stadiums sold out, airports bustling. but sure “normalcy” is impossible

2) 2021 GDP best in 40 yrs. but sure economy is holding us back
it’s so ironic, these pundits who lash out at Dems, libs claiming they’re keeping country in lockdown mode,

this isn’t May 2020 folks. A open yr eyes
not sure why press so committed to portraying America under Biden as lockdown dystopia w/ a Jimmy Carter economy
but I do know GOP loves it

it’s astonishingly bad

it’s entire story abt US “faltering efforts to vaccinate” not *one word* abt GOP being pro-pandemic and Fox telling viewers vaccine could kill them
NYT being afraid of its own shadow is an awful look
according to NYT, US vax rate trailing every other high-income nation by 20 pt is just happening. period. there’s no explanation according to this cowardly piece

my latest— who keeps publishing a parade of DeSantis puff pieces; pressrun.media/p/new-york-tim…
“The Times for the last year has been a leading press player in pushing the idea that DeSantis is a runaway political star, and the Times’ general practice is always to treat rising Republican stars as savvy and imposing.”
“What about the fact that more than 65,000 Floridians have died from Covid-19 and 5 million have been infected under DeSantis, who has taken extreme steps that have prolonged the pandemic? The Times politely sets most of that aside.”

my latest— the red-hot economy the press won’t talk about; pressrun.media/p/biden-boom-h…
“The same media that remains in inflation hyperventilation mode, just cannot work up the energy to consistently inform news consumers about the surging economy under President Joe Biden.”
“So attached to the idea of using economic news to bash Biden, the press doesn’t know what to do when the data demolish the media’s preferred storyline.”

My latest — do better ; pressrun.media/p/the-medias-3…
1. Conservatives are volunteering to get sick and die. Period.

2. Liberals are not trying to close schools

3. Biden cannot stop a global, mutating virus
“Nervous about offending Republicans and Fox News by depicting anti-science conservatives as flat-earth deniers who would rather risk the welfare of themselves and families than get a vaccine (developed under Trump!), the press tiptoes around the obvious insanity.”

Spotify was always going to side w/ lies

astounding what that company has done to its corporate imagine by refusing to stand up, ever, to the torrent of Rogan lies during a public health crisis
how is @Spotify any different than Fox News?
it’s just fact, @Spotify has gotten people killed. and we’ll never know how many
