ACCUSATION MEETS INCOMPETENCE: Reade's accusation could be true!
*WEDNESDAY, MAY 6, 2020Also, it could be false:* Is it possible that Tara Reade's accusation is true? Is it possible that Joe Biden assaulted Reade in 1993, as Reade has now said? Yes, *of course *it's possible! In part, Reade's accusation is possible because every accusation is. Stating the obvious, every claim is possibly true until someone can prove that it isn't. That's true of Tara Reade's accusation, which could of course be true. Unfortunately, it's also possible that Tara Reade's accusation is false. Until someone can prove that her claim is true, that's totally possible... more »

The Disconnect Between The Stock Market And The Real Economy Is Destroying Our Lives
In the month of April—as 30 million Americans filed for unemployment, and destitute small businesses closed forever, and rent strikes were demanded, and city and state governments forecast years of grim austerity—the U.S. stock market had its best month in more than 30 years. Day after day, we were treated to stories of absolute ruin in the real economy, right next to another glorious rise in stocks. After a sharp selloff in March, the S&P 500 index has bounced back to where it was in the fall of 2019, as if that little devastating global pandemic were nothing more than a fleeting,... more »
Reclaiming Populism
In the years between Donald Trump’s victory in the 2016 Republican primaries and the 2018 midterm elections, a rash of opinion pieces compared him to Latin American leaders, contemporary and historic. A headline in The Washington Post declared, “Trump is the U.S.’s first Latin American president.” “In Venezuela, we couldn’t stop Chávez. Don’t make the same mistakes we did,” read another. The New York Times published virtually the same article three times: “Is Donald Trump an American Hugo Chávez?”; “What Hugo Chávez Tells Us About Donald Trump”; “Will Democracy survive Trump’s pop... more »

ALEC Leading Right-Wing Campaign To Reopen The Economy

ALEC is a corporate pay-to-play operation where legislators and corporate lobbyists vote behind closed doors to adopt model legislation on a broad range of public policy issues.

Michael Flynn Did Not Lie, He Was Framed by The FBI
[image: undefined] Two and one-half years ago, Special Prosecutor Robert Mueller unveiled charges against Michael Flynn for "lying to Federal agents." At the time I gave Mueller the benefit of the doubt and assumed, incorrectly, that the investigation was fair and honest. We now know without any doubt that the so-called investigation of Michael Flynn was frame-up. It was a punishment in search of a crime and ultimately led the FBI to manufacture a crime in order to take out Michael Flynn and damage the fledgling Presidency of Donald Trump. It is important to understand the lack of ... more »

The constant trash talking from Washington (and its corporate media outlets) that blames China as the 'source' of the corona-virus has drawn this short but clear response.

The conservative MAGA agenda assumes a mythologized and aestheticized view of their nation; instead of a coherent plan and shrewd political strategy, the MAGA agenda is fuelled by optimism, emotionalism, and nativism—but now MAGA is lost in an endless lockdown, and the ravenous leftist beast is on a rampage and unlikely to show any mercy. While the conservatives marched to the drumbeats of MAGA, they naively allowed the lockdown to happen under their watch and brought their nation to an anti-MAGA terminus. The genesis of the lockdown problem is the ban on flights from China that the ... more »
THERE'S ONE WAY TRUMP'S CORONAVIRUS RESPONSE COULD HAVE BEEN WORSE
It seems odd to Thomas Edsall that President Trump isn't doing better in the polls. One surprise with Covid-19 is not what happened but what didn’t happen. Although the pandemic might yet benefit President Trump — through heightened xenophobia, increased acceptance of authoritarian leadership, racial and ethnic schism — the political winds have not, to date, shifted in Trump’s direction. In fact, the opposite is the case. Trump's poll numbers, as I keep telling you, aren't bad, are slightly better than they've been for most of his presidency, but are worse than they were in late M... more »
