You may remember that President Obama ridiculed Mitt Romney for suggesting Russia was the US’s top geopolitical foe in 2012.

But you may’ve forgotten how the media ran with Obama’s zinger as if they were his comms team.

It feels like a good day to revisit.⤵️
The original comment dates back to a @CNN interview where @wolfblitzer was incredulous that Romney would think Russia was our greatest geopolitical foe.

CNN would even fact-check this claim after President Obama’s debate zinger.
Obama’s comment really set off a tidal wave of misplaced media mockery.

The idea that Obama’s attack was a “mic drop” or “the best line of the 3 debates” hasn’t aged well, methinks.

But journalists don’t root for a side, right, @ChrisCillizza?

You know, I always kinda thought this one was bullshit.
There’s a few others that I remember from my days (briefly) as a psych major where I was like, huh. This sounds like pop pseudoscience. Stanford Prison Experiment, that fake electroshock one, the beating up the clown one.
Basically, I am a psychology denier. I think we draw overbroad inferences about people and the world based on limited (and sometimes bogus) studies designed by weirdos.

Sorry are we supposed to take as an article of faith that this particular attention-desperate guy was the victim of a mysterious, futuristic weapons attack out of a van in the middle of the night that would also align perfectly with his political org’s talking points about Trump?
Next we’ll find out that a Lincoln Project staffer was abducted by aliens wearing MAGA hats.
Also, for those not following the arc of this story, it’s just a relitigation of this piece where NYT alleged that Trump was ignoring attacks on American diplomats because he didn’t want to upset Russia or China. nytimes.com/2020/10/19/us/…

This piece is stupid and bad faith top-to-bottom but where it really insults the intelligence of the reader is when the author claims that Ilya Shapiro has “a pattern of bias that isn’t just a poor choice of words” because he…also opposed the confirmation of Justice Sotomayor.
Oh and because Senators were anti-Semitic in 1916. I don’t believe Shapiro was among them, fwiw
Let me break this down for you: this piece only exists because, with the wisdom of hindsight, even the most unserious people on the left recognize that firing Shapiro for this tweet is preposterous.

Man, that sucks.
Obviously happy for Stafford and Donald and Whitworth getting their first rings. Great to see guys like OBJ and Von Miller succeed. And happy for all 8 fans of the LA Rams. But man.
Same, girl.

Blue states across the country are finally allowing kids to go to school without masks.

You may remember, a few short months ago, Florida was demonized for allowing the same.

Who’s up for a little side-by-side? And where does @GovRonDeSantis go for his apology? ⤵️
You may remember that, when DeSantis banned mandates, @CNN put together a heart-wrenching story about how even 12 year old kids knew that masks were necessary in schools.

But when it isn’t Florida allowing kids to be unmasked, we just get the facts.

Why the change?
Over at @CNNPolitics, the same agitprop story got recycled in Florida.

But now? We’re told “Democratic governors outpace the White House with masking pullbacks.”

Oddly, I don’t recall the term “outpace” being used about DeSantis.
