Brr! David Waldman brings us the news, plus traffic and weather on the 10’s:
Greg Dworkin brings up Howard Schultz again. Schultz made money bringing us all together over a cup of coffee, just like Papa John promoted family unity over a slice of pizza, and Scott Tucker passed us a couple bucks when we were down and out. Self-deluded billionaires without political experience promising nothing but to run the country like a CEO could never win an election, could they? Howard wouldn’t know, he doesn’t vote. Now, Michael Bloomberg, he knows how to do this.
Voters would elect Elizabeth Warren’s tax plan in a landslide. Nancy Pelosi gets more credit than Chuck Schumer for taking on Donald Trump because she deserves it. If you want a chance to take on Trump, take a number, but hurry, before all of the cool policies are spoken for!
Donald Trump figures intelligence agencies wouldn’t be so passive and naive if they saw the same reports he sees. What has NATO even done for us lately? Mitch McConnell realizes his shell is not nuke-proof.
Emptywheel gives us the details on the disinformation campaign targeting Robert Mueller. Russia pretended to hack its own court documents, and altered them, and Mueller caught them. Worldwide organized crime is like The Sopranos, but just bigger.
Armando clamors for all of us when he clamors for public hearings to begin now!
