Legal repercussions for all involved lowest rank technical staff and a great worsening of all they have done and even more. Just like it happens after every other govt blunder :)
I built a simple tool to download all their data a few month ago (https://dogedownloadtool.pages.dev/). It uses their API and creates a CSV file for the user. It's interesting to do some data analysis with it.
Why do you say Politico is left wing and anti-trump? My reading of then was "mildly conservative biased". I think you are correct in noting that "anti-trump" is not necessarily left or right wing.
Ah, the old “reality has a well-known liberal bias” trope. Thanks for reminding us.
FWIW, Politico is also anti-cancer, anti-pollution, and anti-rape. Just more of their systemic bias I suppose. On the bright side, there are an increasing number of alternative “news” sources that that the opposite positions on those things.
They are slightly left wing and report accurately on Trump, which to many means they are anti-Trump. Those people should accept the reality of what Trump is, but sadly for the rest of us, they won't.
Politico is owned by right-wing billionaire Axel Springer, who enforces various conservative ideological stances at his publications and who in 2020 asked his staff (slightly tongue in cheek) to pray for a Trump reelection.
> so they're going to be pretty un-generous with their analysis
This does not follow at all. People really can be fair and dispassionate on topics they disagree with. I can, for example, write a "why you should use PHP" article even though I don't like PHP.
I think the automatic assumption that people will be dishonest to fit their political leanings says more about your mindset than Politico. Or rather: alleged political leanings since it's not my impression that Politico is all that left-wing, but that's a secondary point.

When the time is "right", seize it all. We are just about there.
We have secret police, concentration camps, and now, federal occupation of a city.
Does anyone see a pattern?

So, no one should criticize him ever? Be like Claude - “You're absolutely right! about everything”? While almost always wrong about everything!!

You mean factual? Is that what you meant to say?
I love that any news agency that doesn't explicitly carry water for this admin is considered "anti-Trump".
