From The American Prospect:

P.S.: I searched for Baker’s name in the long section on Trump’s presidency in my 2020 book Lying in State: Why Presidents Lie—And Why Trump Is Worse and found this: “In another front-page analysis, Times White House correspondent Peter Baker described the drama of impeachment as playing out against ‘conspiracy theories,’ which he said were ‘everywhere,’ adding that ‘conspiracy theorists are in the White House and Congress,’ though he neglected to point to a single ‘conspiracy theory’ that did not emanate from the Republican side of the aisle.”
