"It is incredible how similar this is to the media's performance on Iraq. 1. Rely on charlatans and get everything wrong. 2. Justify your performance by pointing out that everyone else also relied on charlatans.”

Can you perhaps make the point more succinctly. It seems like you may have a really good point here.

More succinctly? Sure.

The Washington Post is a rag. When it comes to electing milquetoast, third-way Democrats, pushing unnecessary wars, and slandering progressives, they are the gold-star next to the New York Times.

Not to sidetrack FAH's overall point, but this is what this disgusting CIA controlled rag wrote about the GENOCIDE in Yemen:

So guilty on 8 charges, mis-trial on 10, and not guilty on... none.

Potential penalties for the guilty charges:

Tax Fraud: Up to 25 years
Failure to file info on foreign accounts: Up to 5 years
Bank Fraud: Up to 60 years.

That's a total of up to 90 years.

And if they retry on the other charges; up to 225 additional years.

Okay, I get that the headline is there to grab attention. But the body of the article has some legs.

Has WaPo taken a stance on Medicare for All in their editorial section (I don't know, I don't read WaPo)? My guess is that they are just as confused as most on the subject as most (including the analysts)?

Good, and that's with Judge Ellis sewing as much confusion as possible in the case. He should be removed or step down after this. Disgraceful. And what is it that conservatives always whine about...activist judges. :lol:

Doubt this means anything, but assuming trump is done...pence will fully pardon then you have the worst possible outcome... The religious right I’m by religious right I mean the far far far religious right takes over the White House and also is full control of the Supreme Court. You’re looking at overturning Rovy Wade. Something Trump would’ve never done.

What’s worse is you now have Trump on the outside campaigning for the far right to further his agenda without the stench of an investigation hunting him down because Trump and going nowhere even if nothing more than out of spite this man is gonna stick around.

And pence is been around too long. Nobody’s gonna lay a glove on him.

Prohibit corporate outlaws from working in government by banning the hiring of top corporate leaders whose companies were caught breaking federal law in the last 6 years.

ALL public corporations break some federal law - many times because two laws conflict. So, this is really the - no business people in government.

I guess this was just a publicity stunt.
