Kudlow does tricks on that thing: "Donald Trump is the most dominant figure on the world stage. Far greater than anybody else in decades. It's not Putin. It's not Xi Jinping. It's Trump. Trump holds the cards in his hands & he knows how to plan them. That's what's happening... he's utterly dominant"

I no longer view the crisis before us as a GOP vs. Democrat issue, and I haven't for a long time.

This is a profound issue of choosing to fight supremacist politics, of necropolitics-- of whether you believe it's worth protecting people's right to live with a measure of dignity and respect, period

W.E.B. Du Bois on Robert E. Lee:

“Either he knew what slavery meant when he helped maim and murder thousands in its defense, or he did not. If he did not he was a fool. If he did, Robert Lee was a traitor and a rebel–not indeed to his country, but to humanity and humanity’s God.”

Back next door with the cat I'm cat-sitting. She has accepted that I am her key to survival until her mom gets back tomorrow. She is going through the motions of play and affection. Meanwhile, my cat is watching me from my house next door through a window that looks into this house and she's mad.
