She has written for The Federalist so she has that going for her. But seriously folks, this strikes me as whining “But what about the Clintons?” and “How dare they not take the Bill bait!” Also this re: Trump:

I especially like the KCK reference. Very topical for those of us who also follow sportsball.

It seems to me that The Atlantic is quadrupling down on contrarianism even as Trumpism and its satellites are (way too) slowly spinning down the toilet.

See Willie Sutton and the famous comment concerning his chosen line of work. We’re in a bit of a social-media Klein bottle here.

I’m still very curious about the “many more” turn of phrase. If it were 8 times and he claimed 1 or 2, doesn’t feel like a “many more” situation to me.

I respect WBF but we all marinate in this 💩and can’t really judge the common clay. I would also argue that 60 Minutes at best hits the next layer of the informed. I do think that this news about the segment may cause others to look up the seg. As others have said: Streisand on Internet steroids.

I guess they figured that one Tarlov was enough to prevent another $800M loss and the rest could be decorative bobbleheads.

Thanks for the description. I looked her up and I saw Reason and said “I now know enough.“

Since I’m old I now want a caricature of Trump as Orangeface done in the style of the old Dick Tracy comic strip.

The problem with applying Hanlon’s Razor ("Never attribute to malice that which is adequately explained by stupidity“) nowadays is that there is so much of both malice and stupidity floating around.

BlueSky Dems tend to be their own genre and as insular as Twitter used to be, this hecksite is downright incestuous. Even people whom I respect here seem to be afraid of a Karl Rove/Dan Rather redux situation. Newsflash: I consider Rove overrated but he is Hawking compared to the current 🤡🚗.

The producers tried to get comment from the administration; at that point it ceased to be their responsibility. Weiss wasn’t trying to improve the piece else she would have bothered to show for screenings. Please don’t shill; think WWDD (What Would Dan Do?).

His resilience in repeated Dem wave elections has been both remarkable and annoying. I’m not so sure this time: the suburban Dem shift coupled with his abject cowardice with discharge petitions won’t serve him well.

Ahhh the glass cliff. Despite the man’s off-the-charts political talent, the 💩 economy of 2008 was IMO what got Obama elected. Things were so bad the stupid fringe was willing to take a gamble on the black du.

I find it interesting that three of them are from the districts bordering NJ and north of Philadelphia. I wonder if they finally took lessons from the recent shellacking administered by Sherrill.

The “moderate“ House GOP Reps are wastes of protoplasm. Thomas Massie has been more useful to the Dems than any of that sorry lot.

The second strike is far easier to explain to morons and also needs no evidence beyond the video. The Trump administration was put on the defensive on this one. The entirety of the program is illegal as 💩 but needs a lot of explanation to truly penetrate. It’s easier to pursue the single recording.

I think the embedded post was a bit of a strawman because nobody is gonna snap outta nuthin’. What will happen is the balkanization of an empire as you described it. The same people will still exist but without a central authority.

I think this is true also of the other 2 legs of the MAGA stool: evangelicals & OD Catholics. Mostly the pull of Fox gravity draws them all closer to fundies but there are exceptions. For example doctrinally Baptists have no problem with birth control or IVF within marriage. That’s a Catholic thing.

Yep. Seeing the ESPN alerts crescendo over several hours certainly made me think, “Well that escalated quickly.“
