In Berlin 1920. Vertigo is a great new book about Weimar, it talks about the unreal level of misogyny that developed in the propaganda of the right wing paramilitary units who failed to subdue a worker insurrection in 1920 and then claimed the women and other civilians should not gave been spared.

Matt is supposedly a writer, but his post somehow doesn't acknowledge that there is this thing called a book nestled in between those front and back covers.

You deserve it. Great work covering broader observations and the things that should be in focus. Thx for posting the Krugman talk, a good example of that.

Dem party loves to recruit these private equity and big military/tech/ finance-backed candidates. Jefferies a huge disappointment, broader situation in ny - house was lost with Dems losing 5 ny seats, gillibrand supports crypto, Schumer also under aipac control.

Reality is even Dems need to be pushed, no way the right abandons continuous strategy laid out in the Powell memo w 50 yrs of determined efforts to achieve its most consequential goal, with related consequences of judicial superiority, presidential immunity, destruction of the 14th amendment, etc.

Certain things just lend themselves to rational bipartisan solutions like releasing the Epstein files and reforming the Supreme Court over time.

Ok, we understood your personal respect for her. But when Rep. Mondair Jones and Senator Markey introduced a bill to reform the Supreme Court, when pelosi was still speaker, she stated louder and clearly her answer to the question of whether she supports it. One word was given as an answer - no.

Huh? Nyt today reporting on July garland's jacket. They are KNOWN for their hard-hitting critical journalism!

Who else might tell us what a high-priced Beverly Hills diet doctor thinks about key public health issues, like Covid immunities?

The court's plan to put the president beyond the reach of the law and systemic checks / balances goes back over 40 years. This will continue past his terms in office, whatever they may be, unless a real Congressional majority interested in changing this shows up.

Dunno, but presumably the same years as CIA operatives like Evelyn Farkas and Abigail Spanberger were recruited or given the highest level of party support to keep up the good work on the surveillance state and techno-military complex.

Certainly it's not about a "client list" and also not only about the abuse and destruction of minors. MAGA obsession supposedly ALSO emanates from sensing that elites and their lawyer friends enjoy a different system of justice than everyone else. Pelosi dems don't seem to want to recognize that.

Well, doesn't seem that weird if his great ambition was massive tax breaks and a reduced level of review for the project to build the tracking and surveillance systems for ice and trump.

Where exactly would he go in Florida? Doesn't he realize that the "Epstein hotel" in Palm Beach was shut down?

Hoffman covered in first chapter.
