Kristen Welker pushes Republican MAGAt shutdown narrative: It's Biden's fault! --
Talk about your both-sides:
— James Fallows (@JamesFallows) September 24, 2023
KWelker, on MTP, after Sec Buttigieg explains that the shutdown disagreement is ENTIRELY *within* House GOP, Welker: "But again, if there's a shutdown, that falls on everyone's shoulders... Why isn't prez using Bully Pulpit?"
Can't make it up.
BREAKING: Donald Trump issues order to House Republicans demanding they shut down and refuse to fund the United States government and then blame President Biden for the catastrophic fallout. https://t.co/5CzTS7ukmG

Media skewing Republican MAGAt, outlier poll edition --
Washington Post: We’re pretty sure these numbers are wrong but here’s a front-page story with 30 inches of copy about them, anyway, because these polls aren’t cheap. https://t.co/Cr8mBMzcWY

My polling average has Biden up ~2 vs Trump for 2024. If you see something statistically different than that, it’s probably an outlier. Then it’s worth asking: Is this a pattern for this pollster? Do the subgroup estimates suggest nonresponse? Do other questions look reasonable?

This rolling coup won’t end till its leaders are in cells. That includes several members of Congress as well as Trump. That includes members of the Trump family besides Trump. That includes members of the Trump administration and some current MAGA leaders. This only gets worse...

...until all of those behind this insurrection face accountability under rule of law. But that *won’t happen* because too many in media who are—God help us—thought leaders *continue* to only pay occasional lip service to the danger we’re in. Privately they still don’t believe it.
