@nateraymond @WSJ Has he read Article III?

1. Joe Biden ran for president as Mr. Normalcy. During the pandemic, with the body count rising and the economy teetering, he looked pretty good next to a lying, thieving, philandering sadist who refused to lead the nation or take responsibility for it.

Medicare for All would save $450B a year.

Every dollar spent on food stamps generates $1.50-$1.80 in economic activity.

Each dollar going to low-wage workers adds $1.20 to the economy overall.

It’s not about what this country can or can’t afford.

It’s about priorities.

What a complete joke. Amazing how much Donald Trump still maintains sole custody of the GOP. They all line up to carry water for him working with a hostile foreign power to subvert a US election.

The gaslighting about this was intense, despite the obvious signs Garland was dragging his feet

[Brian Beutler @brianbeutler]

NEWSLETTER! Necessary as it is for Biden himself (and federal employees who speak for him) to stay mum on Trump’s indictment, the rest of the party needs to engage. @danpfeiffer laid out problems with leaving pro-Trump spin unanswered. But there’s more. https://t.co/GHRnEBNYzW

@kylegriffin1 Former Marine … that matters why? (Not directed at you)

Prosecuting Donald Trump could have a chilling effect on future presidents’ ability to break the law and brag about it on tape.

We hear a lot about the "woke mind virus". But if there's any "mind virus" out there it's the one that has tens of millions of adults threatening guerrilla warfare over a 70-something codger doing some kind of Benny Hill cat and mouse game over bankers boxes at his beach hotel.

[Aaron David Miller @aarondmiller2]

A criminally indicted former president is bad enough; a Republican Party that defends his hypocrisy, recklessness and cruel disregard for the Republic’s security and rule of law takes the pathology that infects our political system to a whole new level.

[Mehdi Hasan @mehdirhasan]

To be clear, CNN has to ask Trump tomorrow about today’s shocking sexual assault ruling against him. And not just a single, solitary question to tick a box, with no follow-up, but a sustained period of questioning - which I’m not sure the live town hall format allows for tbh.

@bluestein “traitor to the principles of the party” … what principles, fealty to traitors?

[Jacobin @jacobin]

Almost none of the reports about Thursday’s conviction of four Proud Boys members mentioned the fact that the far-right group was riddled with FBI informants. But this kind of law enforcement collusion with the far right is a profound threat to democracy.

@GregPacknett @borrfdad @rvonglahn @jamieson @daveweigel Not certain they are really comparable https://t.co/Io9A6Ahi12 vs https://t.co/WYpd55TBLq but guess we’ll see how it all plays out

@GregPacknett @borrfdad @rvonglahn @jamieson @daveweigel WI appears to have papered their retaliation better … probably won’t matter today. Tis what it is

[PJO @pjo1127]

@GregPacknett @borrfdad @rvonglahn @jamieson @daveweigel WI appears to be more comprehensive and tied to other policies … FL appears to be amateur hour retaliation. As would be expected from FL today. Like I said, we’ll see how it all plays out. Today’s “conservative” “Justices” don’t call balls and strikes so there’s that for you
