Daily Reckoning
They’re wearing us down with shocking headlines and opinions. They come daily these days, with increasingly implausible claims that leave your jaw on the floor.
The rest of the text is perfunctory. The headline is the takeaway.
A few weeks ago, The New York Times told us that “As It Turns out, the Deep State Is Pretty Awesome.”
These are the same people who claim that Trump is trying to get rid of democracy. The deep state is the opposite of democracy, unelected and unaccountable in every way, impervious to elections and the will of the people. Now we have the NYT celebrating this.
