Baquet often seemed to be pushing back against the tide of wokeness–but there’s no question the @NYTimes got worse on his watch, in the sense of pleasing partisans at the expense of truth. Exhibit A is falsification of the Trayvon Martin phone call here https://t.co/4HhI3fqVwx

A QUESTION for my Blue-Check friends who see this: Do you have the feature that lets you see only tweets from other blue-checks? And if so do you use it? Would explain a lot …. Thanks.

It’s almost as if @Twitter now has a big suppression bureaucracy that has to treat quotidian controversies (eg KBJ hearings) as if they were Hunter’s laptop with the 2020 election hanging in the balance. If they don’t find new things to censor what are they going to do all day?

Maybe the idea really was to send a message to Kamala https://t.co/WndQjjduyg But that’s the WH’s interest. Why would *authors* want to do it now? Maybe to please WH sources; maybe they knew MSM would play it up now–and others might be chosen to carry the message if they balked. https://t.co/5omGWGWM6B

.@nfergus argument is that #2 is Biden’s strategy, not #1.
#3 could be directed at a deal, or at grand world-pivotal Putin collapse. But only really makes sense for the latter (otherwise big risk for relatively small payoff). https://t.co/9i1UlnVaQO

So 3 positions (may have this wrong):
1) Help Ukraine as we’re helping. Don’t risk escalation. Negotiate a neutrality deal to end war
2) Same as 1 except DON’T negotiate, keep war going to “bleed” Putin so he falls
3) Do more to help UA, even if risks escalation-eg No-fly zones https://t.co/eiU9h46k6a

CLARIFYING: “I conclude that the U.S. intends to keep this war going….’the U.K.’s No. 1 option is for the conflict to be extended and thereby bleed Putin.’ …It helps explain [the] lack of any diplomatic effort by the U.S. to secure a cease-fire.” https://t.co/eIIwyQOdW6
