Meanwhile, in an odd moment of Rupert being Rupert, on Trump being Trump....

Alvin Bragg, NY's DA overseeing the case against #TrumpVirus at a New York level, has been getting death threats.
Today, after Trump " #Truth 'd" a post of himself holding a baseball bat aimed at a photo of #AlvinBragg, the DA received an all-caps Death Threat (a truly Drumpfian wordsmith, ~ "I'M GOING TO KILL YOU!"), accompanied by a white powder. It was harmless (the powder) but reminiscent of yesteryear's anthrax attacks on politicians. (i.e., "domestic terror")

A sort of very New York'ish phenomenon; This appeared in Murdoch's small-circulation tabloid, where - as Lawrence O'Donnell highlighted, the paper knows it's in Blue country (Hamilton was too!) and caters mostly to NY'ers looking at the gossip pages who may buy the Post, and maybe a few curious Dems after headlines like this.
O'Donnell's point: So why the complete opposite on huge-viewership Fox and the big-circulation papers? Still solid Carlson land.

On the Post cover and in the editorial, Trump is clearly credited with being the cause of a vile effect. And maybe more.

So... Rupert Murdoch.... Remember him? The guy who was sued for billions because his "Fox" inflamed sedition and lied, as he defamed Dominion voting machines by going along with the "Big Lie" that they were rigged, or hacked from Mars, or whatever...

So Rupert's also Donnie's long time buddy and cohort in catch & kill and disinformation, not about red or blue, "about the green".

Well, Rupert, sort of like Lindsey Graham (another #TrumpVirus spreader and #Jan6 #seditionist - Rupert's in a good mood I guess, about to re-marry at 93 and 'speaking his mind' now about the Donald. Making like the Dominion lawsuit is nothing ('a billion here, a billion there'), and it turns out he's just having fun, like so many other billionaire fascists.

Yesterday Rupert Murdoch's NYC rag (founded by Hamilton!) disparaged Bragg, typically opining:

Fumbling his Trump case, Alvin Bragg exposes his incompetence nationwide

Not too sympathetic or justice-focused....

But today, after the death threats, this full-page NY Post cover - and even better, a blistering editorial just dissecting every evil instinct and habit that Trump epitomizes, and skewering him, with this absolute truism (we've heard before)

Trump won’t change, and that shows he can’t win

This from his once partner in word-poisoning crime, fellow green-seeker who doesn't take sides, only cash.
If you read nothing else about the reaction in Trump #disinformation world (and #hypocrisy land), read this op ed. It's #reality !
