Whenever establishment Dems talk about the need to “protect democracy” or about how “democracy is in danger” just substitute the word “oligarchy” in for “democracy” and it will actually make sense
Incoherent: “I’m for democracy, but against populism!”

Coherent: “I’m for oligarchy and against populism.”
Alex Vindman thought he was “protecting democracy” by using the bureaucracy to subvert the elected President of the United States

Who wants to tell him
Overturning Roe would return the power to set abortion laws to elected officials

Weirdly enough you’re proving my point

Good analysis, maps on to my own

That video looks like murder
Night and day from Rittenhouse

Shooter provoked the victim, and was not being attacked when he pulled the trigger
By firing the warning shot at a minimum

Looks like Twitter hit me with a “search suggestion” ban

Wonder what the reason is - Defending Project Veritas? Criticizing the Rittenhouse prosecutors?
What's going on, @TwitterSafety?
Seems pretty corrupt for Twitter to be trying to turn down the volume on its critics

This is precisely why I work and support The Internet Accountability Project (@The_IAP) and why you should too

So far, Binger's closing is simply clownish

I think he's already alienated a number of jurors and that the most likely outcome here is a very quick not guilty on all counts
"Rosenbaum didn't reach for the weapon!"
"There's no evidence that Rosenbaum threatened Rittenhouse!"

These aren't just lies, they are dumb lies
Jury has watched the video of Rosenbaum lunging for Rittenhouse's gun probably a hundred times in the last two weeks, along with Richie's testimony it's a slam dunk

Binger fighting this fact in closing just makes him look ridiculous

The FBI raided Project Veritas on a pretext and is now leaking their privileged communications to the New York Times

This is a scandal Image
These are classic privileged communications

PV asked for a legal opinion on potential journalistic activities, that opinion is a privileged communication

No idea what @adamgoldmanNYT was thinking here, he should be subpoenaed tomorrow and forced to reveal his criminal source
I didn’t even think about the fact that PV is currently in litigation with the New York Times

Makes it all the more appalling that the NYT would be publishing Veritas’ privileged communications

DeSantis and it isn’t particularly close
Need his set of skills in the White House - someone who has legal expertise and understands the contours of the President’s power
Everyone I’ve met who really *knows* about how the Trump WH worked prefers DeSantis, even if they don’t say so publicly

COVID replaced Trump in the liberal mind as a new, totalizing subject of obsession

Trump destroyed the work of many liberal artists, their once-interesting stuff became nothing more than vapid politicized crap

Now instead of anti-Trump crap, their art is COVID-paranoiac crap
I used to be a massive fan of The National, I've seen them live at least half a dozen times

They used to always put on a show

But in the aftermath of Trump's election, their lead singer came out in DC trashed out of his mind, ranting about SALLY YATES and Rob Portman
Authors have had the same problem

Don Winslow wrote some great novels about drug war

Then his brain got warped on Trump and his latest one is completely vacuous
