Apple pie is bad. This is not really debatable. So is key lime pie, while we’re on the topic. Pecan pie is the 🐐 tho.

Again, what we’re seeing is a repeated and increasingly explicit offer of white reconciliation over a shared commitment to preserving white supremacy.

A mayoral candidate is repeatedly asked to condemn Hamas and denounce anti-Semitism simply because he's Muslim.

A sitting president who promotes white nationalism, employs gutter racists and dines with literal Nazis is given a free pass.
A mayoral candidate saying maybe the city should cover the cost of bus rides gets the full socialism panic treatment before he even tries it.

A sitting president taking billions of dollars worth of shares in private companies gets “I must say, a tad unusual” after it’s been going for nearly a year.

this is interesting in part because this is, uh, not the young guns.
Wow — Senators Van Hollen, Smith, Murphy, Sanders, Warren, Markey, Merkley, Heinrich have created an official internal "Fight Club."

They're challenging Schumer & Gillibrand's leadership, arguing the party is using an old, corporate-friendly playbook insufficient to take on Trump or win elections.

After one of the worst acts of racial terror in our history, *we erased it.*

We didn't teach it.

We didn't take anyone to trial.

Police records disappeared.

So did newspaper archives.

The silence continued until 2020, when people, you could say, woke up.

B. 2PM

Long enough since breakfast, but enough daylight left so the kids can still run around outside after the meal, and for adults to nap and start a card game or game of dominoes.

This is identical to Russia invading Ukraine. Illegally invading a country for their resources and likely killing thousands—if not more—is immoral and should not be supported by anyone with any shred of moral conscience.

The fact that this took so long should be a cause for reckoning. One thing we have to understand is, most people aren't changing their news sources when their news sources are embarrassingly wrong and late, and we need to deal with that urgently and swiftly
Finally, the media worm is turning on Trump:

*NYT reports Rs quietly looking beyond Trump
*Axios says "red alert" time for Trump/GOP
*Politico reports MAGA culture-war now failing
*Trump clearly declining in many polls

On the pod we parse through all this evidence:

alas, there's a lot of sanewashing in this piece - even as it expresses frustration in RFK, it treats him as a legitimate, good faith actor in a way that's just not true.
Over many interviews, Robert F. Kennedy Jr. told Michael Scherer about how he plans to remake America’s public-health system. Can he lead the scientific establishment he’s spent much of his life crusading against?

Media literacy is down, so to be clear, when the WSJ writes “Ultimately, the fact pattern Meta relies on to meet its conflicting objectives strains credibility” about your accounting practices and runs an accompanying flowchart, that is the equivalent of a 500-foot neon sign reading “FRAUD”
This feels like one of those stories you're going to look at a year from now and say to yourself, "Why didn't I move more of my portfolio into cash?" **
