Kagro in the Morning


Dec 27, 2023

We’re back! Greg Dworkin was rarin’ to go, rounding up happenings from the extended holiday weekend. That included a reminder that while polling a year out from the election is often worthless, it’s perhaps valuable to ask people whether a criminal conviction would change their minds about voting for Trump. So, someone did.
 
I don’t know if you’ve heard this, but the economy is doing a lot better than the so-called experts said it would be. But so-called experts get a lot of things wrong. For instance, they used to insist that abortion could never be “a winning issue for us.” And now “pro-life” types aren’t even sure they like guns so much! And legislators who opted to do nothing — even after Sandy Hook — now think that just maybe, they made a mistake.
 
Greg’s fond of reminding us that Trump is a “chaos agent.” What’s the opposite of that? A stability agent, I guess. And we’ve got a pretty good one.
 
All the robots at Tesla are going haywire. Not just the cars. (Or the owner.)
 
Moms Three Liberty continues its walk of shame. “Lordy, there are tapes” is becoming cliché, but it’s still fun to talk about.

And of course, we had to revisit the Colorado Supreme Court decision, plus the denial from SCOTUS on Jack Smith’s petition, neither of which are the end of the line. There’s a lot more to say about both of these cases. But Clarence Thomas shouldn’t be among those saying it.
