This but unironically. It was and remains a huge scandal, as demonstrated in the Mueller report, the bipartisan SSCI report, and Trump’s criminal obstruction. It helped Dems win the midterms in 2018, and as soon as they could, they dropped it to talk about health care.

Dems still insist Trump is uniquely beatable, and the party should thus work against his more electable rivals. I’m not sure their assumptions are right: The whole party carries the Trump taint, and he’d try to sabotage whoever beat him. offmessage.net/subscribe

Haley would be a very bad president and is a fairly unprincipled person. But there’s Haley bad and then there’s Trump bad. offmessage.net/p/democrats-vo…

Republicans threw the collective weight of their bodies behind the Harvard story. What stories that reflect poorly on Trump and the right have Democrats been pushing?

I'm a pretty engaged Jew and Zionist and I don't know what Alan Garber's views on Zionism are. A quick Google search doesn't generate much either.

He is Jewish though.

FIRST EPISODE OF POLITIX IS UP.

Me and Brian Beutler take a deep dive into Nikki Haley's Neo-Confederate adventures, Donald Trump's Bad Christmas Tweet (which I think was good!), and much much more.

POLITIX—the pilot! Me and Matthew Yglesias on how we ended up in a 2020 rematch and what’s broken about Republicans (and Dems!) to make Trump viable again. Plus why Matt thinks Orange Man Bad despite getting a tax cut and book deal out of him (I got neither). politix.fm/p/how-we-got-h…

The MAGA mob is bullying elected officials into line with threats of violence. City councilors, school board members - they literally fear for their lives.

It won't stop escalating.

Happy 2024. Since we're still pretzeling ourselves to explain why folks think the economy is bad despite all the data, here's the latest update of media coverage of inflation/recession vs unemployment/recovery, thru 12/31/23. The truly astounding imbalances persist even in Q423.

This is a warning beacon (again) for Election 2024. Another election overseer leaves, this one the second registrar in a year to depart NV's second-largest county. Clark, the largest county, also has a new registrar and county clerks in rural NV have departed, too.

Worrisome.

Meg Tirrell Unfortunately you left out that this came about b/c the Biden/Harris Inflation Reduction Act reduced insulin price cap for seniors and then drug companies volunteered to cut it for others.

NEW: The idea that democracy supporters are actually anti-democratic for trying to apply the 14th amendment to Donald Trump is a lame gotcha. It’s about as clever as saying tolerant people are actually intolerant because they don’t tolerate bigotry. offmessage.net/p/trump-above-…

“Republicans are howling in bad faith about the sanctity of the democracy they tried to overthrow…Trump’s attempt to steal the 2020 election is relegated to the footnotes.”
