FWIW, Marc Short is the 2nd generation descendant of the GOP's Southern Strategy, and a very devout Christian.

Few things are as awesome as these men who love America because it's a meritocracy were people are free to become whoever they want and pull themselves up by their bootstraps...who also inherited both great wealth and their politics from their powerful fathers.
Marc Short worked on the Marco Rubio campaign in 2016. During that campaign Rubio called Trump a "first rate con artist." Not quite "imbecile," but close.

The six most iconic notes of Irving Berlin’s God Bless America were probably taken from the old Jewish Vaudeville hit “When Mose with his Nose Leads the Band.” jta.org/jewniverse/201…
The famous riff starts at the 40 second mark.
The fascinating interview where I learned this. npr.org/templates/stor…

Editor at The Federalist is very concerned about bias in the media.
I think the key phrase here might be "pretends to be fair." I suspect in his own defense this person would say that they do not hide their biases, therefore they are being honest with their listeners.
Figured this would be as good a place as any to re-up this embarrassing episode in my long-running relationship with The Federalist.

TIL that Jesse Ventura, former "maverick" governor of Minnesota, has a show on RT. Neato! rt.com/shows/the-worl…
Reminded me that Ed Schultz (RIP) also found his way onto RT post 2016, playing a similar role of "straight talking white populist guy" who also happened to be very comfortable mouthing pro-Russia talking points.
What I love about RT, is that they don't even pretend to be anything other than an agent of disinformational chaos. Question everything...but don't ask questions about the things we don't choose to question.

Want to know the REAL reason for the ICE RAID on that particular food processing plant in Mississippi? And why it was carried out for maximum cruelty effect?

The plant owner was abusing the workers & not paying them. The workers sued & won.

The plant owner is a GOP donor.
More...
Allegations of labor abuses dogged Mississippi plant years before immigration raids, w/company threatening deportation for those who complained.

Workers sued & after 8-year court battle, company settled last year, agreeing to pay $3.75M, etc. /2

reuters.com/article/us-usa…
That Trump admin carried out raid w/NO repercussions for company hiring so many undocumented workers is telling.

The ICE RAID reeks of "payback" & serves as warning to other abused undocumented immigrants of what will happen if they speak up for their rights.

This the #GOP /3

1. Look, @SteveSchmidtSES, I get it. You want your party back from Trumpism - you want space for the ideologies on which you've staked your careers. Same for other Never Trumpers like @MaxBoot, @DavidJollyFL or @davidfrum. Running @HowardSchultz as an IND in 2020 isn't the way.
2. The #GOP didn't get here overnight. The Southern Strategy, the alliance with Evangelicals, the anti-intellectualism, the systemic voter suppression - this has been a set trajectory for decades. One you were all a part of, even though you may not like where you landed.
3. And, yes, it may be that your party is forever ruined and a new one must rise, but there is no quick fix. Running Howard as an independent allows you to bypass the primary process. Claiming he is an "independent-centrist" is disingenuous. Independent of what?

1/ LOVE the guys .@tntradioempire: they make poop in a box as funny as dick in a box. Listen live, online, or via your favorite podcast.
Covered a few things, but NE!!! Please take note of thread for info on Medicaid-SPREAD FACTS.
Then: get out & vote FOR 427 Medicaid Expansion
2/ No, no, NO—Milk’s NOT racist! You know what’s racist? NAZIS.
Up to 75% of the world’s population has lactose intolerance-but most can tolerate limited amounts of dairy; & dairy is GOOD for you! And it does NOT cause cancer!

3/ Scientists did find (in a MOUSE model) that THC fits in receptors in the olfactory bulb, causing increased smell & increased food intake. The same group also found that regular chronic marijuana use affected short-term memory. So…eat up—again.

1. This idea that some #GOP have that the DT’s risky behavior is worth the risk because of the potential gains needs some tempering. In fact, the idea that DT would bring some flair for fortune-building from his business acumen was always dangerous.
2. For starters, there are few similarities between running a country and running a business and even fewer similarities between ‘business deals’ and global relations, foreign trade and the balance of power. And the latter issues, our POTUS barely comprehends.
3. #GOP leaders know this, but they’re still clinging to this monster of their own making. Let’s face it, 2 #SCOTUS seats, Ryan’s coveted #taxscam and busting up the #ACA is almost worth the destruction of the global economy, peaceful alliances, even their party, worth it.
