Bari Weiss’ two accomplishments so far are hosting an interview that she desperately wanted people to watch (but they didn’t) and trying to spike a news story that she desperately wanted nobody to watch (but they did)

In terms of US politics, Bush v. Gore is the defining event of the century. It set the template: a ruthless right that instinctively seeks power & doesn't give a shit about rule of law...and a bunch of hapless, feckless octogenarian Dems worried about the good opinion of centrist opinion columnists.
The 25th anniversary of Bush v Gore is today. The conspiracy mongering & corruption of the GOP has been brewing for a long time.
Roberts, Barrett and Kavanaugh were all on Bush's legal team, where they pushed unfounded legal theories. SC justices were already enmeshed in voter fraud myths.

In 2028, any Democratic “I wanna be president,” throwing their hat in the ring, who will not commit to holding these Trump circle criminals accountable for their crimes…will be a no go for me.
What has been done, and is being done right now, cannot go unpunished.

Q: "What do you make of the president labeling affordability as a Democratic hoax? Is that claim backed up by data?"
Me: "No, it's a lie. It's patronizing and it's disgusting. This isn't how we should have economic discussions."

The next Democratic administration should expand the court.
There’s no other way to redeem SCOTUS at this point.

Mockler: Young people are having trouble accumulating capital in the form of housing or in the form of investing. And due to that, you see a lot of younger people turning against the system. We're not loyal to a system that hasn't been loyal to us.

Democratic politicians need to stop accepting Trump’s white nationalist premise that immigration is bad and proudly and loudly make a positive case for why America’s identity and history as a nation of immigrants is so important.

It's great that reporting on the double tap has spotlighted the abject criminality of this Administration.
But don't forget: Venezuela is not waging war on America or Americans, and the men killed were not combatants.
The first strike was every bit as illegal as the second.

When/IF the war starts with VENEZUELA the GOVT will figuratively shut down again. There will be no work down. Trump will declare its all national emergency related and grind it to a halt. This needs to be called the EPSTEIN WAR cause thats what it is

If the Venezuelan sailors were enemy combatants, then the 2nd strike is a war crime.
If the Venezuelan sailors weren’t enemy combatants, then both strikes are criminal murder.
It’s that simple.

Does the BBC think it's improper for a speaker to state their opinion that Donald Trump is the most openly corrupt president in American history?
Because I think almost all historians would readily agree that Donald Trump is the most openly corrupt president in American history.
