You, without the guardrails of a network news show, are exactly what we need right now. Listening to today’s #politicalgabfest and really appreciate the off leash version of your perspective. Thank you.
#DavidPlotz, on #PoliticalGabfest, outed himself as a Manchin-style Democrat who's happy to let oligarchs replace our borderline democracy with permanent minority rule by Republicans.
@davidplotz.bsky.social @johndickenssw.bsky.social this seems helpful to Trump but is it a success? #politicalgabfest
@jdickerson.bsky.social Because I can hear the chatter now. #PoliticalGabfest
“[T]he way the Trump administration treats many Americans is as a defeated enemy, not as fellow Americans.”

God love ’em, but #DavidPlotz and #EmilyBazelon really muddled what should have been some basic civic and moral clarity in this week’s #Slate #PoliticalGabfest podcast […]
#DavidPlotz playing devil's advocate on Musks nazi gesture is infuriating. Not everything and everyone deserves the benefit of the doubt. The only reason to continue listening to #PoliticalGabfest is for Emily Bazelon and John Dickerson.
I can't believe this had to be my first original post here.
After many years of being a loyal listener to Slate's Political Gabfest, I am done with it due purely to David Plotz's obfuscation of Elon's clear, repeated NAZI salute. Sorry John and Emily, but your colleague is bending the knee. Fuck that guy.
