With Pat Buchanan back in the news, I highly recommend this long read on his odious politics in the early 1990s. If we're looking for historical roots of Trumpism, Buchanan should be one of our first stops.
Here's a thread with my executive summary...pulling out what, to me, stood out as the most notable takeaways. But you should really read the entire piece.
FWIW, Donald Trump himself, less than 20 years ago, referred to Buchanan as a "Hitler lover" who "hates blacks and gays." Seems like some journalist might want to inquire with Trump as to why and how his evaluation of Buchanan has changed since then.

Re-upping this in light of recent revelations. A full 18 months before Trump announced he was running for President, an advisor to the Minister for Economic Development in Russia was tweeting about a possible Trump presidency. Perhaps just idle chat amongst business associates.
She was in the news back in February 2018, that's when I stumbled across this tweet. Interestingly, this English language account, which had been very active, went largely dormant after mid-February. She also now has 150K fewer followers.
She's still a big fan of Putin, unsurprisingly given that she works for his ministry of economic development. And she's also excited about resetting the US/Russian relationship along lines articulated in Helsinki.

Can we all just take a minute to LOL at Federalist 68?
While we're at it, might as well LOL at Federalist 71 as well. This is the part where Hamilton says the peoples' representatives might sometimes do stupid things, but it's ok, Presidents and Senators will be wise men who will carry us through the dangerous, populist storm.
The irony, of course, is that to the extent politicians these days are doing the part I highlighted, it's Democrats. Conservatives love to cite The Federalist Papers as political scripture...how ironic if it's the President produced by their movement that breaks the constitution.

Nothing to see here, just a few Republican Members of Congress hanging out with a Holocaust Denier. This is the same Holocaust Denier that @RepMattGaetz invited to join him for the SOTU last year. Nice party you got there, @gop.
I will tell you what, that Andrew McCarthy sure read those white supremacists in the @gop caucus the RIOT ACT! Those fools will never again associate with known white supremacists! Let the fate of Steve King be a lesson to you! <sarcasm>
Johnson also made a famous appearance a few years back flashing the ok hand gesture with Putin's favorite (now unemployed) congressman, Dana Rohrbacher. Big Assange fans these fellas.

#TuesdayThoughts: I wasn't able to be as productive as I wanted to be this year given an (often-ass-kicking) autoimmune disorder, but here's a thread of a few highlights.

As always, I remain so grateful to you all for your continued support.❤️
First, I am very proud of co-editing, with @m_hild, Reconsidering Southern Labor History: Race, Class, and Power. We had perceptive, brilliant scholars contributing essays on a wide variety of topics. Look for the paperback release in 2019!

Second, was absolutely honored to be asked to write a piece commemorating the life and legacy of #MartinLutherKing #MLK for the National Civil Rights Museum. I chose to write about #poverty and the #PoorPeoplesCampaign:

1/ Long Reads Sunday #23. Mining death spirals, token burns, hedge fund shutdowns…As we settle into crypto winter, there is an uptick in explanatory narratives. What’s real and what’s just marketing? Let’s dig in - it’s long reads time.
2/ Let’s kick off with the bear thread of the week. @DoveyWan sums up just about every reason why the poor market might persist - from fallout from a poor Bitmain IPO performance to underwhelming project launches to a potential mining crisis.
3/ There was actually quite a bit of conversation about mining this week. @MartyBent kicked off a great conversation about Bitcoin’s difficulty adjustment - the counterweight to the death spiral narrative.

1/ Manu (The progenitor of Humankind)
All different races of Mankind are derived from Manu and Shradha. The current Manu is Vaivasvata Manu.
2/ The word Manu literary means man but it is a title given to the progenitor of mankind. According to Hindu Puranas there are many kalpas (One day of Lord Brahma the creator) and each Kalpa has 14 manvantara and each manvatara has one manu. So basically each Kalpa has 14 Manus.
3/ The current manu of the present manvantara is Shraddhadeva or Vaivasvata Manu of this current Kalpa. He is the son of Vivasvat (Probably Surya) and is therefore also known as Manu-vaivasvata.
