Dean made one exuberant yelling noise and the entire political media declared him a dead man walking.

NPR's Talk of the Nation had a weekly political segment and the introduction included the Dean Scream until the show ended in 2013.

But our Fourth Estate decided fucking kids is no big deal.
For four days tv news played Howard Dean screaming 633 times back in 2004!

NYT ran with "Mamdani falsified college application records" and CNN ran with "Biden maybe has Parkinsons??????" based on a far-right blog post.

Let's not pretend the level of "investigative journalism" required here is static.
I am not defending Landon’s relationship with Epstein. In fact, the NYT didn’t even try to defend it. He left the paper. What I’m saying is that a piece of investigative journalism that exposes a secret, criminal act such as statutory rape requires far more than what is in these emails.

@neguse.house.gov: "I think it is outrageous for these Republican senators to effectively guarantee themselves million-dollar paydays, a provision in this bill that very clearly applies to them. ... This is insanity to allow this provision to go forward"

I find it highly ironic that the party that bemoaned the deep state and alleged the cover-up of pedophiles is now embroiled in defending the party that has the largest pedophile cover-up in American history.

Important to understand the Epstein stuff and the fascism and the corruption are, in a lot of ways, really all the same story from different angles: powerful men who can and do abuse vulnerable people around them because they can, and because systems of elite accountability catastrophically failed

AOC: "It is unconscionable that what we are debating right now is legislation that will give 8 senators over $1 million a piece & we're robbing people of their food assistance & healthcare to pay for it. How can we vote to enrich ourselves by stealing from the American people?"

Senator Schumer is no longer effective and should be replaced. If you can’t lead the fight to stop healthcare premiums from skyrocketing for Americans, what will you fight for?

Excessive force. PERIOD!

They called them “violent mobs,” but the violence came from the guys with badges and body armor.

Did you know that the GOP Congress has worked less than 20 days since July?

Yet we’re still paying their full salary.

Beshear: Let me be clear. The president has both the funding and the authority to fund snap during a shutdown. In fact, every other president in every other shutdown has done so. People going hungry in this instance is a choice that this president has made.

This is a new low. We just learned that the President is once again REFUSING to fund SNAP despite a court order to do so.

He’s literally holding hungry children hostage to gain political leverage. It's craven and deeply immoral.

Welch: "This has nothing to do with the shutdown. The law requires and the funds are available to continue SNAP right now without any interruption. So that is a decision the president is making on his own to allow people to go hungry."
