"Fringe" is not a fixed category that simply means "extreme." Today's GOP is extreme precisely because the fringe has become the mainstream. @walshfreedom.bsky.social from the archives: www.thebulwark.com/p/is-cpac-ou...
Is CPAC Our Future?
Laugh, if you must, at the CPAC craziness. But take seriously what it portends about American politics.

Our beloved Alice Wong has joined the ancestors. It was one of the great honors of my life to call Alice my friend, co-author & co-conspirator. She was a true genius, a force of nature the likes of which the world has never seen before. I love you, Alice, and am equal parts grateful and devastated

In normal times, it would be a major scandal for the President to direct his AG to criminally investigate his political opponents to deflect from his own involvement in a major scandal — and for the AG to immediately announce she is doing it. The Epstein scandal and cover up just got even bigger.

A campaign that could evolve into bombing a nation thirty times the size of Panama, larger than Ukraine, and home to nearly 30 million people cannot be slipped past either Congress or the American public as an extension of drug policy. www.thebulwark.com/p/no-venezue...
No, Venezuela Is Not a ‘Small Latin American Country’
And talk of a quick invasion and easy ‘regime change’ is dangerously misleading.
