As someone who’s been yelling about the Times’ weasel words for 25 or so years, welcome to the Noticer Club. Contact President Driftglass for more information.

The New York Times likes to say Trump "has stretched the limits of his powers” and “tests the boundaries of the presidency.” But this is not a test or a stretching exercise. He’s a lawless politician building a dictatorship. Say it. 🧵 1/3

Back in June, I wrote about the news media’s weasel wording, such as saying Trump is “bending the military’s role” and “flirting with lawless defiance of court orders.” Yes, “flirting.” You can subscribe for free to my Stop the Presses newsletter. 🧵 2/3

The New York Times wrote strongly about the MAGA threat in an editorial last week. It needs to make the same points in its news pages. It's not an opinion that Trump is building a dictatorship. It's apparent to anyone who is paying attention, and we need more people to pay attention. 🧵 3/3
