- In a recent column on her dumb documentary that made MAGA folks big mad, I said she was complicit in everything, just another grifter. Because that's exactly what she is.
- So subtle.
- The decimation of the Washington Post is another moment in U.S. journalism when one of our alleged "good billionaires" could build a muscular publication that protects democracy with all necessary resources. That we're not seeing that happen makes me question the existence of good billionaires.
- The Republican Party’s early messaging in advance of this year’s midterm elections seems to boil down roughly to: Work longer, don’t carry guns and “It is not a crime to party with Mr. Epstein.” My column encouraging them to continue: www.usatoday.com/story/opinio...
- The great @willbunch.bsky.social with a damn sound argument against the farcical notion that federal immigration agents can be “reformed.”
- They weren't rookies The two federal agents who murdered Alex Pretti had a combined 20 years of experience with BP or CBP, and simmered in a toxic culture with an absurd crime rate that must be erased, not "reformed" My new column on what really killed Alex www.inquirer.com/columnists/a...
- Somebody’s gettin’ fired.
- While vetting the Epstein files, the FBI created a list of prominent names mentioned in the documents—and they noted which people had "salacious information" about them in the records. Trump was on the "salacious" list. Bill Clinton was not. www.justice.gov/epstein/file...
- It's a continuous indictment of the press corps that they don't walk out en masse when this flatulent meat sack says things like this.
- Can the history book writers just start working now and put this all in a chapter titled "Shameless Embarrassments of the Trump Era that History Would Not Forget."
- Great piece by @sarapequeno.bsky.social: "It’s ironic that MAGA considers Trump Derangement Syndrome an ailment affecting the left, when the real derangement seems to be coming from faction members who are willing to do mental gymnastics to absolve the president of any wrongdoing."
- Hoo boy, that's the "however" heard 'round the world.
