Normally, "You're Fired" means you have instantly lost your job, not: You WILL lose your job IN TEN MONTHS.

I can't wait to see what the next 10 months are going to be like for Colbert. Now he has nothing to lose. It's a shame he lost his show, but this is going to be interesting. CBS, Paramount, and Dementia Don are all now fair game. Colbert ratings will go thru the roof. I ordered a case of popcorn.

This is precisely why I harp on the negative influence of reactionary centrists so often: Exaggerating the radicalism of the left gives voters permission to support the radicalism of the right.

If both candidates are deranged fascist liars, why not support the one that's gonna cut your taxes?
Of course, not all of them felt this way. Niall Ferguson, for example, projected a serene confidence that I found somewhat shocking

You’re publishing a book about how campus activists pose a threat to democracy while those activists are being disappeared and deported. The rise of the Third Reich doesn’t obviate study of the Weimar Republic but it maybe does obviate asking whether the victims had it coming

Contrary to Trump's claims, in the last 30 years, the US has surged ahead of all its major competitors.

Even the poorest state—Mississippi—has a higher GDP/Capita (2023) than UK, France + Japan

I asked the one high ranking policeman I saw on 5th Ave why there were so few police. He said “We did not expect anything like this. Don’t tell anyone but I’ve only got 44 officers out here — and it’s a great crowd, great event, no incidents.”
I have never seen anything like this in NYC. 5th Ave covered from 42nd St well to the 20s. Nobody prepared for this volume. Volunteers are holding the traffic on all the side streets. No police in sight. #handsoff
