Yet more blather indicating a complete lack of self-awareness on the part of Marshall … particularly in relation to the … checks notes … US ‘negotiating’ ‘team’.
Oh, *really*? In ‘secret’, huh? Like with paid, embedded informants?
Thanks for this!
A little background on who the Southern Poverty Law Center is and what kind of work they’ve been doing for decades makes it clear that DOJ’s indictment (which is of the center, not of any individuals) is vindictive & malicious, an attack on civil rights work itself. open.substack.com/pub/joycevan...
“Out of the mouths of babes,” particularly those with absolutely no self-awareness … or sense of irony.
Looks like Comer’s been reading his Nostradamus again …
"Out of the country of Greater Arabia shall be born a strong master of Muhammad. He will enter Europe wearing a blue turban. He will be the terror of mankind—never more horror."
COMER (sotto voce): WHY?!? Why do I keep saying such stupid shit every time I am presented with a news camera and a stupid softball question?
A glass half empty is over-designed by a factor of two …
I discussed this very thing last night.
California and Virginia had the voters decide.
NOT Texas.
On moving to CA as a teenager, I was mercilessly disabused of my NM ‘accent’, in which ‘warsh’ was common. It took me a year … but ‘wash’ replaced ‘warsh’ and ‘aunt’ replaced ‘ant’ in rapid succession.
Please let his replacement be a cow.
We are all complicit if in any way we have supported their existence and their activities.
I’m proud of it. How about you?
REPUBLICANS: "We are going to gerrymander the shit out of the next election!"
DEMOCRATS: "OK, so we will gerrymander back to level the playing field."
REPUBLICANS: "Whaaaaaa! Whaaaaaa! Not fair!!!!! You are beating us at our own game. So sneaky!"
Marc is 100% correct. The WaPo of the Watergate years is dead and gone, killed by its current owner.
How could any donor NOT have known – or at least suspected – how SPLC did their work, learning and sharing what they could about organizations like the KKK and their ilk?

Is this *really* how this is going to work? Are we – the tax payers – going to get shafted AGAIN by Big Oil and the Orange Menace? Is this a bailout?!?

*Warsh … seems autocorrect wants fix that name as desperately as do I.
What on earth is Wash ‘signaling’ here? That he has to fluff Trump’s ego or face a ‘come to Jesus’ meeting with the Orange Madman?
IF you get there …
Spoken like a paid spokesperson for the ‘clean’ coal industry.
This is what’s called ‘warshing’ one’s hands … Pilate, I’ve heard, was an expert at it.
And, yet even then Tillis will disavow Trump’s involvement.
My question … EXACTLY.
Might it be more fair – as well as accurate – to stress, equally strenuously, that Karp is neither subtle nor a thinker?
Yep. They are. As are many of the media talking heads.
