One of the most striking developments of the last two decades or so is that everyone on the right -- media, politician, judge, cop, pastor -- has started sounding basically the same, ie, like an unhinged blogger. They're all in the same bubble now, w/ the same shibboleths, using the same vocab.
In an unhinged dissent in our Texas redistricting victory, a GOP appointed judge seems to believe that George Soros and I did...well, I'm not sure what...but he is very mad. Bigly.

The next phase will involve ensuring Trump complies with the disclosures. Let us distrust and verify.

I mean, look, I'm not a reporter, so who am I to talk?
But on a day where the president both just called a woman reporter "Piggy" and is celebrating someone who had people bone saw apart one of my colleagues, I might just be a little ready to defend my colleagues and profession.
But that's just me

It’s not embarrassing; it’s horrifying that you received him as a guest.
Trump suggests Khashoggi had it coming: "You're mentioning someone that was extremely controversial. A lot of people didn't like that gentleman that you're talking about. Whether you like him or didn't like him, things happen. But he knew nothing about it. You don't have to embarrass our guest."

Alan Dershowitz is one of those claiming Epstein was not a pedophile because he pleaded guilty to one count of having sex for money with a 17-year-and-10-month-old person. "That’s not a pedophile." See this important response from Julia Brown, the brave reporter who broke the news on this

From Ludlow to Haymarket to Flint, the 20th Century gave us the 40-hour week, discretionary income and ultimately the American middle class. We will accept the slide back into subsistence poverty or we will have to fight the 20th Century all over again.

Increase in productivity since 1979: 87%
Increase in hourly pay since 1979: 32%
Just so happens that ~25% of workers were unionized in 1979. Today? 10%.
As unions declined, the super-rich have taken a larger share of wealth generated by labor. We must build back union power.
