When last we saw Rudy Giuliani, he was either getting locked out of his own phone or scouring Ukraine for the Chili’s placemat Jesus wrote the Bible on. Or something. I forget, honestly. Well, he’s back, and his brain is still as curdled as month-old goat yogurt. Here he was...

Full disclosure: My candidate is Elizabeth Warren, for reasons I won’t go into in a Bernie diary because, well, it’s a Bernie diary. But though I prefer Warren as my progressive champion, I’m not among the cohort of Democrats who think Bernie would be a disastrous candidate. And I’m in...
Well, “friends” might be a stretch. I don’t think Trump actually has friends. Associates? Gobsmacked, open-mouthed starers? Mike Bloomberg knows Donald Trump and knows how to get his goat. After Trump attacked the self-made billionaire business genius’ height yet again this morning, Bloomberg hit Trump where it hurts: x .@realDonaldTrump –...
I was — and continue to be — peeved at Michael Bloomberg for throwing his fancy, bejeweled billionaire hat in the ring at an absurdly late date. I’m not much for rich guys buying their way into our politics. But you have to hand it to him for this ad:...

A Survey USA poll released today shows several Democrats beating Donald Trump in Georgia as the candidates...
White guy who has never been stopped and frisked for no reason by cops here. My BS detector just went off the scales with Bloomberg’s apology on pursuing “stop and frisk” in NYC. Nothing like running for president in a Democratic primary to see the light, huh? 'I was wrong':...
I am not a Biden fan by any stretch of the imagination. He falls ahead of Tulsi Gabbard in terms of who I would vote for in a primary, but that’s about it. But I can’t help feel sorry for the guy. It feels like his natural allies have knives...
Here’s a quick news quiz: If you were editing The New York Times and advisers to Michael Bloomberg were telling your reporters that the billionaire might run for president, would you run that story on the front page? For how many days in a row? Considering he is the former mayor of New...
Look,I have no problem with rich people being full of shit. In fact, when you look at it generally, rich people being full of shit almost seems baked into the cake. People notice and listen to you because you’re rich, whether you’re full of shit or not. The ultimate example...
