Chris Murphy on possible military strikes on Venezuela: "It's pretty clear it's just an effort to distract people from the rising prices and the Epstein scandal. No one wants a war with Venezuela ... and by the way, it's wildly illegal."

We're not really talking enough about how the tariff reversals on fruits and nuts and spices is an admission by Trump that his entire economic program is a miserable failure.

So many working journalists do good, vital work every day despite dealing with layoffs, page view quotas, furloughs, crappy wages, mercurial bosses and dodgy owners.
Then there’s Olivia Nuzzi and the guy who wrote the Olivia Nuzzi puff piece, and that’s what the public thinks “the press” is.

/4 The point is that the NYT has chosen a very specific way to look at the world — one of fatuous moral and political equivalence — and can’t expect anyone to read its stories outside of that frame. It’s perfectly plausible to think the Times would say “rape is bad. But the lost camaraderie!”

I’m familiar, by the way, with the argument that we just aren’t appreciating the NYT’s subtlety here; that it’s actually a searing indictment of this group of elites, just in a “show me, don’t tell me” kind of way. That take relies on ignoring that it’s in the New York Times.

“Agents didn’t arrest anyone Sunday morning. They rolled down their windows, ‘grinning’— it was ‘the same grin they had when they pinned a teen to the ground,’ Han said.
‘Even though I knew my rights,’ Han said, when agents with guns and masks stormed into his store ‘I still felt helpless.’”

It’s pretty simple.
When you do a huge armed midnight raid on an apartment building rounding up and terrorizing children and later find out there were no criminals there everyone involved resigns in shame and we have loud showy Congressional hearings.

A knock-on effect of Trump suddenly looking weak is people feel emboldened to push back against his flunkies too. Turns out the media knows exactly how to do this when they want to
KARL: The president claims that Thanksgiving costs are down 25%. Does he know that's not true?
HASSETT: Well if you look at Walmart--
KARL: Wait a minute. I've gotta stop you. The Walmart package this year contains much less than the one last year. That's why the price is less.
