Don Surber: "
Bidenomics leads to NYT strike." - "
Barring some miracle, the staff of the New York Times will go on strike for 24 hours on Thursday. Its elitist readers may be denied their sanitized version of the world."
It's hard to believe that, when I was younger, I subscribed to the NY Times and Rolling Stone and the Atlantic.

This should tide you over during the NYT dry spell:
The Bulwark:
No, You Do Not Have a Constitutional Right to Post Hunter Biden’s Dick Pic on Twitter
Elon Musk and Matt Taibbi’s First Amendment follies
https://www.thebulwark.com/no-you-do-not-have-a-constitutional-right-to-post-hunter-bidens-dick-pic-on-twitter/
Among Republican members of Congress, leading conservative media commentators, contrarian substackers, conservative tech bros, and friends of Donald Trump, the ability to post Hunter Biden’s cock shots on Twitter is the number-one issue in America this weekend. They believe that if they are not allowed to post porno, our constitutional republic may be in jeopardy.
I truly, truly wish I were joking.
The offending material that Matt Taibbi revealed was removed by Twitter at the Biden campaign’s request turns out to have been a bunch of links to Hunter Biden in the buff.
The requests came from a campaign that has absolutely no government authority at all. At the time of the correspondence in question, Joe Biden was a private citizen running for office, while Donald Trump was the president.
Taibbi acknowledges that Trump’s White House made requests that “were received and honored” and that “there’s no evidence—that I’ve seen—of any government involvement in the laptop story.”
So if there are any First Amendment issues at play here — and I don’t believe there are since neither Elon Musk nor Taibbi have demonstrated that the government made any mandates on Twitter — they would, in this case, only relate to the material that Trump wanted removed.
Musk and Taibbi have promised more editions of the “Twitter Files” in the coming days. Maybe next time they won’t come up so limp.

Bidenomics
Hey, look. Our Q3 economy just grew at a 2.9% rate. Faster than projected, and higher than originally reported.
Q3 doesn’t include the Thanksgiving shopping weekend that broke all previous records.
Then there’s jobs growth and wage growth both blowing past the estimates. And the huge reduction in the U.S. deficit. And the lowest U.S. unemployment rate since “Abbey Road.”
Still, we do need to talk about those soaring gas prices. Wait... what?
The big question: How much longer must we endure The Biden Recession?

Clay Travis:
There is not one single article about Elon Musk or the Twitter email release last night on the NY Times app this morning.
Elon Musk:
That is because the New York Times has become, for all intents and purposes, an unregistered lobbying firm for far left politicians.
The New York Times:
“The New York Times requested copies of the documents from Mr. Musk, but did not receive a response.”
Michael Weiss:
“Why won’t the mainstream media report on the thing we won’t give them?”
Don Moynihan:
Musk et al complain about journalism, but want media to repeat their claims without verification or context. So much for transparency.
David Frum:
When Rudy Giuliani, Steve Bannon, Elon Musk, and Matt Taibbi all together say, "You're going to have to trust me on this," what kind of stone-hearted monster would say No?
Tom Warner:
Elon wanted to fake a story of Democrat bias in old Twitter moderation, to create a false cover story that he's correcting that as he injects far-right bias into Twitter moderation.
