The very last episode of Maron's podcast with Obama and I am really disappointed about his missing guidance and perspective on the current state of affairs. Weak language, passive stance, no clear & bold messages, not even to his fellow democrats.

Another great article on suppressing data collection and hindering measuring the effectiveness of policies.
By slashing teams that gather critical data, the Trump administration has left the federal government with no way of understanding if policies are working — and created a black hole of information whose consequences could ripple out for decades.

Was Jens #Spahn versucht, ist brandgefährlich. Er will die rechtsextreme AfD behandeln wie jede andere Partei und trägt so zu ihrer Normalisierung bei.
Gleichzeitig verschiebt er die Union inhaltlich immer weiter nach rechts. Wohin das führt, sehen wir in GB beim Brexit oder in den USA mit Trump.
