This moral radicalization happened at all levels in the Union army, very much including Ulysses S. Grant.
A lot of Northerners needed to SEE it to become true believers in the cause. But they did. It’s all there if you listen to the lyrics to The Battle Hymn of the Republic.

If we lived in a real country, this would be impeachable. But it's just like the fifth worst story on a Monday.
When asked if there was anything "incriminating" in Epstein's emails, Trump pointed a finger in a female reporter's face and snapped. 'Quiet. Quiet, Piggy.'

Feels like we're at the stage where Nixon caved to the pressure and released transcripts of the Oval Office recordings, which turned out to have been heavily edited and misleading.
We might be jumping ahead to the 18 1/2 minute erasure, though.
But I'm not sure the 1-to-1 comparison really works?

Attention, historians of Watergate! I'm getting flashbacks from the months of back and forth, reversals and blunders over release of White House records. What stage are we at with the Epstein Files? Drip, drip, drip, as we used to say. @kevinmkruse.bsky.social @hcrichardson.bsky.social

it's pretty wild how throughout all of history nobody who has ever decided to argue that "actually a little bigotry is okay" ends up looking like one of the good guys and yet people are still lining up left and right for the opportunity to do so in the paper of record

One of the more upsetting things in this is that he wasn't blackmailing them: These men were part of this and protecting him not out of obligation or even particularly out of access, but out of solidarity.
Lots of people say: that’s because he’s blackmailing them, but I don’t think he’s blackmailing Kathy Ruemmler! I don’t think that’s what explains it.

think, this guy is smart. I understood. lets see what he writes about the clintons. someone suggested that trump could shoot someone on fifth avenue and not lose a vote. that is true, but would make little sense for him not to suffer an immediate consequence. the allowed civil depo setting precedent for criminal process, is a lawyers outline I might think of dumbing it down, again, and suggesting that you can sue your neighbor, even if you neighbor is the president. makes little sense that the you can be indicted for assaulting him but he cannot if he assaults you.
low bar for civil higher bar for criminal. . at
