More on poor coverage of the attack on Paul Pelosi by the Times

Is it just me, or is my former employer the @nytimes working very hard to avoid connecting the attempted assassination of Nancy Pelosi to right-wing extremism, years of GOP hate-mongering, and the attacker’s full-throated embrace of Trump and his lies? https://t.co/NPHIftEHA2

If you thought perhaps NYT is saving its front page coverage of the attempted assassination of the speaker and the damage done to her husband for the Sunday edition, I fear that was mistaken. https://t.co/XPUK1Z2jy0 pic.twitter.com/OmwttQ4DfW

What is going on? At the very least we know this was no garden variety burglary. It was targeted against a political leader and it was violent. And what does Boudin’s recall have to do with this attack? Nothing. @nytimes, really, what is going on? https://t.co/2zARQvFTHB

Violent right-wing threats after search of Trump property

Exclusive from me:

The judge who signed the Trump search warrant is facing violent threats from far-right extremists, including some targeting his children.

"I see a rope around his neck,” one wrote, under a post listing the judge's home addresshttps://t.co/LohbCCRjcA

The judge has become the target of violent threats following the FBI search of Mar-a-Lago.

The name & address of the judge who issued the #MarALago search warrant leaked out, and now, spurred by #Republican political leaders, right wing groups are calling for execution of the judge, and of many leading #Democrats. https://t.co/MJpxD7qQcr

“What does it mean that for most elected Republicans, none of what we’re learning” from the extraordinary 1/6 revelations “is remotely disqualifying, either in a party leader or a 2024 presidential nominee?” @ThePlumLineGS asks.

Those conservatives may say threats of violence (and actual attacks) is not their intent. But by now they know such actions are an inevitable byproduct, a predictable form of collateral damage for energizing the base w/superheated language. Replacement theory fits this model, too https://t.co/AbUNGexJsw

Protesters show up outside SCOTUS homes & suddenly Congress gives them high priced security. A 70 year old black poll worker in Georgia gets death threats from MAGA Trumpers and she's on the run for 2 months and the FBI basically says figure it out. This is why people are angry

My family is very familiar with what Shaye Moss & Lady Ruby described when living in fear because of the fmr President of the U.S. It's heartbreaking & completely un-American. We worry for the safety of all who've lived this nightmare firsthand & the ongoing violence yet to come.

Right-wing attacks on the National Butterfly Center

This is an incredible story. It’s like Pizzagate.
