@AbeGreenwald Subscriber & daily pod listener in Portland, OR here. You exaggerate the mob’s power, Abe. Or, conversely, you underestimate the silent majority’s dwindling tolerance for these shenanigans. These aren’t revolutionaries hardened in Yan’an or the Petrograd Soviet—these are dorks.

@SethAMandel I interned for Sen. Inouye in the mid-90s; even then I can recall his positions on this topic. What a feeling to be in the presence of the man. RIP to the hero of the 442nd.
met a guy who brought Sun Ra to LA to play - Ra was at his house for a week and each day would dress up in his full regalia (including headdress) and disappear in the middle of the day for hours. Finally he asked Ra where he'd been?
