Ossoff: Absolutely RFK JR should resign. He should have never been confirmed to begin with. He is utterly unqualified. This is someone who has embraced every piece of quackery and pseudoscience that he’s come across.

A personalist dictatorship can have no settled policy except the will of the leader. No facts matter, no principles other than the leadership principle (Fuhrerprinzip)
FOX: Are you for any green energy personally?
ZELDIN: Uh, well, I am for whatever President Trump is advocating for.

Trump is talking about Americans this way.
And let's be clear - he's talking about Black and brown people in Blue cities.

R.E.M. “pushed the boundaries” of alternative rock
Herbie Hancock “pushed the boundaries” of jazz
Trump & RFK Jr. are “destroying public health & will be responsible for killing people”

You spelled ENDANGERING wrong, @nytimes.com.
“Pushing the boundaries” is a *positive* frame implying unconventional innovations. There are no innovations here. Just medieval anti-science populist attacks on some of best methods of truth seeking we have.

The people who say we talk too much about slavery are the same ones who insist that we need public monuments and statues of men who are famous solely for waging a war of treason in defense of slavery.
Statues that were created explicitly to deny any sense of "hope and progress" after the Civil War.

White House official Lindsey Halligan: "While slavery is obviously a horrible aspect of our nation's history, you can't really talk about slavery honestly unless you also talk about hope and progress ... we need to stop focusing so much on the lack of progress."

Is it just me, or does anyone else find it frighteningly surreal that the terrible atrocities, injustices and war crimes of faraway lands that we studied in history books when we were kids are now being committed, promoted and even celebrated by our own U.S. government, on a daily basis?
