Opinion || The Weaker of the House

The parents of Republican politicians must have taught their kids not to make the bed, sweep the dirt under the carpet, and that a little dried egg on the corner of the plate is okay. In the intervening days, since the Republican party was literally at each other’s throats on...

meanwhile in Bizarro World, Alabama GOP Passes Resolution to Remove the USA from the UN

State level GOP parties are doing all kinds of stupidity, censuring its US senators, and following on the usual RW craziness, resorting to the pre-GQP tropes, as befits a state that elected Tommy “not Mr. Potato-Head” Tuberville. This is another extension of the old CT of global new-world order, something,...

“It’s much more fun to cosplay as Robespierre than a financial literacy teacher.” Žižek on GameStop

No one wants to hear about GameStop(gate) even if it’s not really a scandal or a flaw in capitalism. Slavoj “we must end capitalism but won't” Žižek on GameStop is like imposing a libidinal economy on Sudetenland when you take it over. Was the appeasement good for you too? There’s a market...

Sanders or contested convention? – wait until super-Tuesday or Bernie isn’t Public Enemy’s Yoko

ESEJOLsXsAAfd17.jpg

FiveThirtyEight predicts a contested convention, especially if there are no surprises on super-Tuesday. The less-mentioned fear is a repeat of 2016 where Biden wins because of superdelegates on the second ballot and disaffected dems take their ball and stay home.

Chuck Todd confesses he was naive about GOP disinformation being spread on his program

MSNBC host Chuck Todd attempts to get a word in while Louisiana Sen. John Kennedy peddles falsehoods.

A new Chuck Todd interview with Rolling Stone in advance of a special program on disinformation also demonstrates MSM complicity. Bothsideism writ large, and Jay Rosen takes Todd to task. Chuck Todd: “So look, whether we’d liked it or not, our platform has been used, or they’ve attempted to use...

Alice Rivlin's defense of “centrists” is a case study of myopia and denialism.

I bear no particular grudge against Alice M. Rivlin.  She appears to have led a fine life of public service, and, as discussed below, considers herself a “moderate Democrat.”  She is the type of moderate Democrat who was a member of the Simpson-Bowles deficit commission – and so I disagree...
