He is corrupt. He is chaotic. He is demented. He is cowardly. He is careless and ineffectual. He is a lot of things. But he isn’t strong. Thanks for calling it out.
As for Kennedy, thanks for calling out this form of bullshit. Even if we care about food safety (and we should), what possible credentials does he have that qualify him to speak to this issue?
I also appreciate the encouragement to speak up and write. I am a prolific reader and I love to write, so post my own versions of meta analysis of the “data” daily. I do have many who tell me that my contributions are helpful and inspiring. I am not famous, so don’t have a wide audience (nor is this my goal), but I do believe that all our small attempts add up.
Yes. This is it. It’s chaos and incompetence. As the mayor of Boston put it, the number of deportations hasn’t ramped up, just the number of TV cameras.
“Axios’s Mike Allen goggled at Trump’s ‘winning streak.’” - when I read this in the Axios newsletter I almost punched a hole in the wall! And as far as I know, Charlie is the only one calling it out! Thank you, Charlie!!!
PS- As of this morning they are still at it. From Axios:
“Less than three weeks into office, his administration has already struck deals of varying substance with Canada, Mexico, Colombia, Panama, El Salvador, Guatemala and even Venezuela.”
Every one of these Senators who is up for reelection fears being primaries by DonnieFelon's chosen financed bt SpaceNazi (if he is still in The Felon's good graces)...so they will vote for his choices.
Super article except for one quibble: the team that supposedly supported a two-state solution in Israel/Palestine has exactly zero credibility on this issue. Democrats are every bit as beholden to AIPAC and Israel as Republicans are. We have refused for decades to go a damn thing to further a two -state solution.
"Julie Roginsky, In the Banter, writes about the cost of those 'protest votes' and raises a provocative question about those activists: Where, she writes, are the campus protests?”
They are where the other protests are, by everyone else, including us: waiting for someone else to take charge and make it happen.
It's really pretty simple stuff. This early on, nobody knows quite what to do and how to do it in the face of something they've never seen before. The logical reaction is to pause, look, listen, digest, and figure out how to move forward into the uncertainty. Put another way: a crazy person standing around throwing rocks is still somebody throwing rocks. No matter how bad his aim is, nobody is going to run out there to try to stop him until they figure out how to dodge the rocks, and better still if someone else figures out a way to do it first and takes control of the situation.
We are in uncharted waters. Give common folk time to get their bearings and figure out how to react. The much better target for our ire now is the political leadership that has utterly failed to exercise its constitutional power and keep the most basic guardrails in place. It was their job. They summed up their courage and made a calculated decision not to get involved. In my book there is no higher form of cowardice, perhaps even treason. Their failure to act dwarfs college students not protesting (yet) as much as the Eiffel Tower looms over a street vendor with a food cart.
The people in Dearborn were fed a pack of lies. Remember when Trump campaigned there? Standing on stage with him was his daughter Tiffany's father-in-law, Massad Boulos, originally from Lebanon, who did a lot of campaigning for Trump in Michigan along with Bisharra Bahbah, of Arabs for Trump, and Richard Grennell. Trump saw a vulnerability and took advantage of people desparate for a peaceful resolution just to get their votes. Now Trump and Netanyahu are going to wipe out Gaza once they displace the remaining Palestinians who live there. I don't thin DJT's America First supporters are going to go along with his scheme; Dearborn's residents might find some common ground with them.
As a retired cath lab nurse and public health nurse I’m disgusted by the inevitability of the appointment of a man that has NO medical background except that of a skeptic. I have a better sense of saving the environment that RFK, jr does of public health and health and disease research. It’s just bullshit. I’m so mad!!!!!
Why should we believe any of the so called concessions Cassidy is touting for caving on bobby's confirmation? He betrayed his Hippocratic Oath as well as his Constitutional Oath when he caved. Nothing that comes out of the trumpican party is truthful. Look at the lies from Bondi and the trump 1.0 supreme court nominees. As Charlie said it's BS.
Not only is he 'a clown'...he's a gangster. Intimidating his political minions into submission does not change either fact. It only makes them accomplices.
It's the duty of America to give the rest of the World something to talk about and be entertained by, and it's the dharma of The Donald to give Charlie Sykes and Keith Olbermann (and others in their position) plenty of grist to keep going. The great maw of the news cycle is unrelenting. I was both delighted and baffled by the posting about Chuck Schumer, late of Prospect Park West:
Since the information on the Department website that Musk is ransacking ,the information on the bottom is the privacy policies, and the policies say it’s illegal to access anyone’s personal information like Musk is doing now.
Who knows what Musk and Trump plan to do with our information.
However , there has got to be the basis for a class action lawsuit that can be brought against Musk and Trump .
It is a crime to release anyone’s health information or personal information.
Is there an attorney out there in cyber space who deals with these privacy policies suits and can help start a suit before it’s too late ?
The suit can be a class action suit for 300 million Americans versus Elon Musk and Trump.
This is serious, and who knows where our information is going to be disseminated if the Nazi sympathizer “Musk” downloaded all the information into a databases
And this Nazi Musk really can’t be trusted, and I wouldn’t trust him as far as I can throw them , and he’s pretty fat underneath that smirk of his .
And it’s pretty amazing seeing his ketamine glazed eyes, gazing up at the stars during the inauguration as well …. Just say’n.
But is there an attorney (s) out there that can start a class action suit as I am very unhappy if my personal and medical information was downloaded .
We should look into a class action lawsuit. America versus Trump and Musk.
He is corrupt. He is chaotic. He is demented. He is cowardly. He is careless and ineffectual. He is a lot of things. But he isn’t strong. Thanks for calling it out.

I must wonder about the Palestinians who attacked Biden and rejected Harris. Why are they silent now? Are they afraid, or just embarrassed?
Yes. This is it. It’s chaos and incompetence. As the mayor of Boston put it, the number of deportations hasn’t ramped up, just the number of TV cameras.
And, in all probability, cassidy will be primaried and the deal is moot.
Just another in a line of “useful idiots.”
Reason 1,462,899 that I LOVE CHARLIE SYKES!

If only there were more Charlies and fewer Bret Stephens.
to misquote Arthur Miller: "For them that quail to bring men out of ignorance, God damns their kind especially, for they know this to be fraud."
