↓Appeal to Prejudice · “The interest of the American people, protecting Americans”Why ›
Invoking 'the American people' and 'protecting Americans' as the standard against which the administration is judged appeals to in-group identity to frame the administration as betraying 'real' Americans.“protecting Americans is not the top priority” … “we're all worse off because of it”

Articles are sometimes updated after publication — if a quote here isn't in the current version, the piece has changed since.
Analyzed automatically with Semblen's fine-tuned model. These are rhetorical techniques, not political tilt — and finding one is not a claim that the article is false. Findings include language the outlet is quoting rather than asserting: we flag techniques wherever they appear, so check each quote against the original. The model has known false positives on strong-but-legitimate language, so treat each finding as a prompt to read closely, not a verdict. How articles are chosen →
