    NYT is a propaganda rag that should be brought up on charges IMHO.
    It is no longer a newspaper that has any legitimate standing.
    To let that rag do this is far, far, far worse than just a damn crying shame.
    It is turning a blind eye to outright lying, corruption, evil, unamerican and definitely treasonous actions/behavior.
    Many of us predicted that they would pull out all stops to try to make sure Trump does not get a second term. -Tyr
    I don't think Trump is the end game, perhaps a catalyst.

    The end game is Marxism.

    The New York Times has an important part to play in this world, but only if you have a pet parakeet or you are trying to housebreak your new St. Bernard.

    That crap reads almost like treason.

    No wonder Rush is always saying the democrats hate America and it's founding, and that all Americans need to apologize for who and what we are. We don't deserve this nation.

    I think the term is “alternative history “ which means faked.

    As I wrote earlier it became the norm with Zinn and many now think it’s gospel.

    This 1619 project is not good at all. They need to keep it out of schools.

    Interestingly I am reading 1984 and I up to the part where Orwell is talking about "changing history" .

    Good story. True: Mike Mansfield was strong Democrat, in fact Senate Majority leader for years. That's how both sides used to see the country-as something to honor:

    https://pjmedia.com/instapundit/387994/

    JULY 18, 2020

    FOGGY BOTTOM FLUNKS THE SCHULZ TEST:
    Shot: Pompeo’s Attack on ‘1619 Project’ Draws Fire From His Own Diplomats.
    The New York Times ’ “1619 Project,” which examines the role of slavery in U.S. history, was not the central focus of his speech, nor of the new draft report that his controversial Commission on Unalienable Rights produced.


    But his comments have sparked fresh debate and criticism among diplomats who continue to raise alarm bells over long-standing issues of systemic racism and diversity challenges in the State Department. Five officials who spoke to Foreign Policy on condition of anonymity described a reaction of shock and fury.


    “Pompeo made it very clear where he stands and reaffirmed the purpose of the commission by denigrating the movement for equal justice and the call for racial reckoning and healing in America,” said one State Department official. “Everyone that I have spoken with is horrified and disgusted by the commission, his press conference, and [the] attack on 1619,” said the official.
    Foreign Policy, yesterday.

    Chaser:
    When I was in the first period when I was secretary of state, there was in my office a big globe. And when ambassadors, who were newly going to their posts or in their posts and coming back to visit me, would get ready to leave, I would say to them, “Ambassador, you have one more test before you can go to your post. You have to go over to the globe and prove to me that you can identify your country.” So unerringly, they would go over and they’d spin the globe around and they’d put their finger on the country they were going to, pass the test.


    So Mike Mansfield, great elder statesman in America, former Senate majority leader and who had been ambassador to Japan for a while before I was there, and he was a close friend of mine from back when I was in the Nixon administration — so he was visiting and he got ready to leave. I said, “Mike, I got to give you the same test I give everybody else. Before you can go back to Japan, you got to show me that you can go over to the globe and put your finger on your country.” So he went over and he spun this globe around and he put his hand on the United States, said, “That’s my country.” So I’ve told that, subsequently, to all the ambassadors going out, “Never forget, you’re over there in that country, but your country is the United States. You’re there to represent us. Take care of our interests and never forget it, and you’re representing the best country in the world.”
    —Former Secretary of State George Shultz on C-Span, April 29, 1993.
