it is crazy to me that we have pundits, pollsters and democratic strategists staring directly at trump diving head first in a quagmire of a scandal and insisting that it is bad politics to make hay of it

There's a world where Dems won the House 218-217 in November and Rs now have a working majority bc Grijalva and Turner died.

Sorry to be unsentimental but I just don't respect people who run for office in their 70s after cancer diagnoses. Move on. Spend time with your family.
Fitting the "gerontocracy is all of our problems" theme of the moment, the margin between elected republicans and democrats in the house is razor thin, but deaths and hospitalizations among the democrats artificially increase the GOP margin and will until those seats can be filled by younger reps.

Residents of the Western half of San Francisco are the richest, most blessed people in the entire country and also they think they are at risk of gentrification.
SF Parks has selected five finalists in the effort to name the park that will occupy the former Great Highway.

"Pax Economica...presents a rich Venn diagram of overlapping free trade, anti-imperial, and peace interests among some surprising sectors of American and European society between roughly 1840 and 1940."

The average Fox News viewer has no idea that Musk is tearing down a system that allowed this country to rule the world for the past 75 years. And when their standard of living slips dramatically in the next five years they still won’t understand because their TV will blame it on some poor scapegoat.
