Once again, if even a single municipal level Democrat ever said something like this about rural Iowa or Texas or its citizens, it would be a week-long National Conversation™️ on CNN about the need for liberals to respect Real Folkz & be more civil. This? Gone tomorrow. Because it’s another week.

The most charitable explanation of the Chicago Sun-Times insert fiasco is the CST assumed due diligence out of Hearst (who put together the insert), which in turn assumed due diligence from the writer, who clearly did no diligence at all. Again, in another era, this might have worked. Not this one.

Van Hollen: I should also just say, I mentioned the fake margarita, they actually wanted to have the meeting by the side of the pool in the hotel. They want to create this appearance that life was just lovely for Kilmar. Which of course is a big, fat lie.

1/4. On the White House’s theory, if they abduct you, get you on a helicopter, get to international waters, shoot you in the head, and drop your corpse into the ocean, that is legal, because it is the conduct of foreign affairs.

Say what you will about Herbert Hoover, I don’t think he packed up and headed out to his place in the Blue Ridge Mountains on the evening of Black Tuesday.
Trump touches down in Palm Beach, on his way to Mar-a-Lago. It’s the ninth weekend he’ll be in Florida since his inauguration.
Didn’t take questions from the press pool or those of us huddled on the risers.

Can you imagine the headlines & the speed of the impeachment vote if the press secretary for any Democrat from Truman to Biden said, "The president feels strongly that we should permanently end the territorial sovereignty of one of our NATO allies"?

👀 There's a court hearing tomorrow in the U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops emergency bid to stave off State Department contract cuts.
So today State abruptly canceled the conference's contract entirely and said Judge McFadden has no jurisdiction anymore.

I think what this shows is that most people aren't actually anti-vax, they're just extremely obstinate about being asked to do anything even slightly inconvenient when they don't see an immediate benefit for themselves
In Texas, said one doctor: “We’ve vaccinated multiple kids that have never been vaccinated before, some from families that didn’t believe in vaccines.”
