This paraphrase of 60 Minutes journalist Sharyn Alfonsi in Playbook is really the thing: “declining to air a story because the administration wouldn’t comment for it amounted to handing the state a veto on journalism”

Whether or not you support political violence won’t change where we’ve come to, nor where we’ve been for some time in this country. I am quite taken aback by how many people only invoke the term ‘political violence’ when it happens to a person with power. It’s political violence the other way too.

What can you do? Vote for the Democratic candidate. Not just for President but for all levels of government, House and Senate, State House and Senate, Governors, State Supreme Court. If we can break the Republican monopoly maybe we can save our democracy.
We are in very dark times. It’ll take an entire political/social movement, an overwhelming rebuke at the polls, and a new vision of governance to unstick this country from whatever this collapse is.

We’ve bombed Iran. And dismantled our joint terrorism task force. And sent a third of the FBI to help ICE. And gutted the National Security Council. And a drunk guy is in charge at the pentagon. And our intelligence allies probably won’t share intel with us. Because people couldn’t vote for a woman.

I agree. BIG mistake, but he'll blame it on Biden somehow.
As a rule thumb, always expect Trump to make the worst possible decision with the worst possible outcomes and you will never go wrong in your predictions.

It’s been disgusting to see the abject cowardice by folks supposedly grownups. I have seen more courage by 1st graders on a playground.

They should be embarrassed by their sniveling behavior. History will not be kind.

CNN: “Trump showed a screenshot of Reuters video taken in the Democratic Republic of Congo as part of what he falsely presented as evidence of mass killings of white South Africans.”

Not white. Not farmers. Not South Africa.
