Monday

And mostly agree. But here is another headline from today's NYT: "Trump’s Pressure Had Little Effect on Iran’s Terms for a Peace Deal."

And the article goes on to show just how weak Trump's position is.

https://www.nytimes.com/2026/05/25/world/middleeast/iran-deal-trump-pressure.html

And the Times editorial board has been appropriately merciless regarding Trump and his administration's blatant corruption. And unlike the editorial board of the Bezos Post, they don't kiss Trump's fat ass.

All that said, the Fourth Estate has let us down and continues to do so.
