If the @NYTimes discovered that Nancy Pelosi was a Chinese agent–this is a hypothetical, remember–would they run the scoop? I'm actually not sure anymore. They might take the time-tested "Get it first, but first get it second" approach (subscribers would feel less betrayed).

DRIP, DRIP, DRIP: I don't understand Pelosi's strategy, though. If only Swalwell is implicated, and the story will inevitably come out, isn't it in Pelosi's interest to get it over with quickly? Unless, of course, there IS more to the story … https://t.co/b2VUcR7pqs

.@ByronYork thinks the @NYTimes "can't hold out forever" in its refusal to mention the Swalwell story.
They'll get to it right after they apologize to James Bennet. https://t.co/MtiDc3f7zx

Also note: The Sanders people have a beef with Padilla. They shouted him down at the 2016 convention, apparently https://t.co/PdNm44Op9V https://t.co/HEDC2L0EuR

No. Latino Decisions' whole thing is arguing that opposing looser borders is a surefire way for any pol to lose the Latino vote (and supporting amnesty is way to win it). The 2020 election tended to disprove that. So time to start calling people who point this out 'racist.' https://t.co/BLwlXOMBjs
