For the right, antisemitism too often becomes a prop. MAGA Republicans ignore antisemitism when their presidential candidate dines with antisemites, invokes dual loyalty tropes, lectures Jews on their faith and channels Hitlerโs โblood purityโ lingo. They decide to puff theirโฆ

Too many progressive commentators have spent time insisting the threats, harassment and grotesque hate speech directed at Jewish students on college campuses is not โas badโ as what we saw in the deadly Unite the Right rally in Charlottesville in 2017. This is not a contestโฆ
Trump demands everyone be tested before visiting him but will not demand the same for Americans before "reopening" the country. Conclusion: He doesn't give a darn about your life.

If you worked for this administration you are complicit in what happened on Monday. If you work for Fox News you are complicit. If you voted against removal in the Senate trial you are complicit. If you vote for Trump in Nov. you are complicit. You should be shamed and shunned.

Cities and states where violence occurs plead with Trump not to come because he incites violence. This has NEVER happened with a president. He is quite simply a threat to public safety.

Biden-Harris should start running on "Trump is destroying the Post Office" in red states. Also with seniors. Make it a top issue. He wants to deprive them of RX they get through mail. Biden-Harris: We want you to get your mail.

for the morally dense: This is why you don't elect a president who abuses women -- he will tolerate it in others, give cover to the abusers and demean women brave enough to come forward. Oh, and since abusers lie you'll have someone dishonest to the core

Trump pretends to have powers he doesn't have (reopen) the country and refuses to exercise those he does have (e.g. ramp up testing). He is a snake oil salesman not a leader.

We are down more than 800 pts on Dow after a .5 rate cut. Maybe instead of blowing up the debt we should have left a little in reserve for fiscal stimulus when the economy went cold. Or maybe electing an incompetent narcissist wasn't good for the economy after all.

Any R now promoting rejection of an election or calling to not to follow the will of voters or making baseless allegations of fraud should never serve in office, join a corporate board, find a faculty position or be accepted into "polite" society. We have a list.

Think of it this way: Trump has been impeached. A healthy majority think he abused power and obstructed Congress. The trial is about whether Republican Senators want to be accomplices. It is they who are on trial.

Amy Coney Barrett is complicit in appearing in Senate under these conditions. On this basis alone she should be rejected. Frankly, no judge countenancing this should be on the 7th circuit either.
