This is why we thank Allah for people like you, Qasim! The biggest thing the Trump Admin has already taught me is not to believe a word they say. I told my students fifteen years ago that the formerly reliable NYT was no longer usable as backing in their research. Keep waking people up!
What I find most repugnant about the NYT headline is how it accepts, legitimizes and broadcasts the Administration’s unproven assertion that the boats they strike belong to drug cartels. By calling the illegal strikes “Cartel Strikes,” the NYT reinforces that understanding in the minds of the general public. This is how propaganda works: boldly assert the truth of something not yet known as truth, and move on quickly. Then repeat. By mixing “drug cartels” with illegal strikes, the NYT not so subtly moves illegality—and extreme Constitutional overreach by the Executive Branch—into the mainstream, makes it palatable.
Yes, this is indeed “disinformation,” as you rightly call it, Qasim.
Ground News is awesome. I’ve subscribed to it for a while now. I really appreciate the “Blindspot” section where it shows me stories that mainly one political side is reporting on while the other side is not.
Thank you for this extensive coverage. Ground.News is excellent. I've been subscribing for the past few months to their middle tier option.
This is why I like Roland Martin. He owns his own show and he is as real as it gets. He’s not a democrat nor republican.
There wasn’t ever a ceasefire
Time to reboot the news 🙌🏽
I wish that I had the money to afford Ground News.
It's interesting to me that maga thinks the Post and NYTimes are anti-trump.
It suggests that the majority of MAGA lies (appropriate vt, n) to the extreme right with reference to these publications of wrecord, Nancy.

And I like you too Qasim Rashid.😁
I'm honored. Thank you Debra.
Thank you. I subscribed.
Wonderful. Thank you, Mary.

The NYT has become the naked king's robe of choice, Daniel.
On your recommendation, I have subscribed. I’m cautiously hopeful.
Excellent. I've found it to be a useful tool in parsing out the disinfo.

That's great to hear! Yeah that's one of their best features.
Excellent information
Thank you SunBeam!
