It’s sobering to look back on the run-up to the Iraq war—a period of unceasing chattering-class debate, elaborate official lies, media complicity, unavailing global protest, in the end a giant stitch-up—and have it seem like some sort of paradise of public deliberation compared to these gangsters.

Jake Tapper hasn't posted here in 11 hours. I'm assuming he's been busy negotiating a deal for a book about our big strong healthy cognitive exam-acing wartime president.

This is why I will despise Bernie Sanders until the day he dies, and then even more so when Vermont's GOP Governor picks his replacement.
As I've been saying for years to others "Both sides are the same" or "All Politicians are corrupt" only serves to run cover for those that are worse at the expense of those that are better.
Far too many times did the person saying such things also come with the smug aura of "I'm smart to say that"

Reminder, if you are blaming Dems right now, you are doing exactly what Trump wants you to do. You are perfectly following his plan.
So maybe let’s blame the Republicans cause they are the ones in the majority and they’re the ones who voted against curbing this, and they’re the reason we are here

Nightmarish. CBS News is now running straight state propaganda. They handed Hegseth all three segments and are now tweeting flattering sound bites.

A CBS News staffer told me this after Tony Dokoupil kicked off his CBS Evening News tenure tonight with a lengthy Pete Hegseth interview:
"If this is what Bari and Tony’s CBS Evening News is going to look like, then the we may as well just call ourselves Trump Administration State TV. Pathetic."
