A big indicator of this fascist moment, for me, was exposing Hanania’s past as pseudonymous white supremacist blogger, him issuing a non-apology apology then writing gutter racist shit under real name, & nevertheless enjoying mainstream success

"The GOP is lying. Will it work?"
Scour this passage -- nay, scour all of Politico -- for even the slightest passing *hint* that lying is ... bad. That you shouldn't do it. That it degrades politics over time.
You will find nothing.

This short passage from a Politico afternoon newsletter captures a huge amount of the advantage gained by lying at scale and the why the DC press corps remains wired for the GOP.

The President of the United States threatens to withhold federal funding from an American city if that city elects a mayor he doesn’t like. Utterly wrong. Utterly anti-democratic. An abuse of his powers of office. And not one Republican will say a thing. Do not normalize this.

Last night in Poland we saw the most serious European airspace violation by Russia since the war began, and indications suggest it was intentional, not accidental.
I am in contact with NATO Secretary General Rutte and Poland FM Sikorski.

This morning MSNBC is asking the question of why Trump, underwater in the polls, has achieved such slavish obedience among Republicans.
Answer: Because they are co-conspirators who have fully invested in his criminality and cruelty. The Republican Party is the traitor party.
