Mitt Romney said the quiet part out loud: the rich should pay more in taxes.
The Wall Street Journal attacked him for it.
But he’s right—and ignoring the math is how democracies crack.

This is as easy a test of your belief in the American system as is conceivable: Should this be an acceptable argument from a president?

Yes exactly. That’s the thing that’s always differentiated us, we’re the only “Christian nation.” Yup.

“She wants to be a senator, though her street girl persona is about as real as her nails."

The guy who built his brand on a fake hillbilly sob story and has three different names - wants to lecture us on authenticity.

really cannot be emphasized enough that bari weiss has literally never done journalism. i don’t mean that in the pejorative sense. i mean that in the “has never performed the job she was hired to do” sense
One explanation for Bari killing the story is that she did so as a public act of fealty to the administration. But another is that, as an inexperienced journalist, she doesn’t understand that a refusal to go on the record is a kind of comment in and of itself

There is a tremendous opportunity for a brand new generation of media outlets to rise up right now because many news outlets that spent decades painstakingly building their credibility are seeing it torched by bootlickers with incredible speed.

it’s sort of incredible to me that vance has apparently decided, of his own free will, that it’s his job to be even more viscerally unpleasant and personally charmless than spiro agnew, and that he seems to sincerely believe this will one day make him president
vance’s personal communication style is to behave like a preening, belligerent oaf in order to impress two 14 year old boys in one of the most racist group chats in history

Garcia: If you are a whistleblower at the FBI, at the DOJ, if you worked hard to put the files together and are seeing your work now being hidden by your own DOJ, contact the oversight committee. We have whistleblower protections.

The DOJ just scrubbed 16 Epstein files from its website, including a photo of Donald Trump, intensifying concerns that Trump is actively trying - & failing - to protect pedophiles.

Say it with me: IMPEACH PAM BONDI

Every member of Congress voted to release the Epstein files except for one holdout. The DOJ blew the legal deadline because they’re running cover for Trump. Bondi broke the law.

Khanna: Congress is talking about possible impeachment. They're talking about inherent contempt for the attorney general or deputy attorney general—any justice department official who has obstructed justice could face prosecution in this administration or a future administration.

Have Jack Smith walk to the gates of the WH afterwards
Let's have one of those shadow hearings.
Jack Smith still wants to speak in public:

In a new letter, Smith says he wants the American public to "hear the facts" about his two criminal cases against Trump — asking the House Judiciary Committee to release video of his closed-door deposition and schedule an open and public hearing.

folks when even Mitt is saying TAX ME let's TAX THEM

"If Musk bought Tesla stk w/ $1B and it was worth $500B upon his death, no one would pay the 24 percent fed cap gains tax on the $499 billion profit. So no one pays taxes on the $499 billion capital gain. Ever." 😡
