Old enough to have gone to McGovern rallies but young enough to still care. Somehow maintaining cautious optimism through the angst.

it remains irreplaceable in many ways. but it takes my breath away the sheer corruption and power-set values that animate the Times
Those with sharp eyes might detect a subtle difference in NYT play last month of an event in one city, w 100,000+ attendees, versus play this morning of some 2500+ events w many millions of attendees, in all 50 states.

Apropos of nothing in particular this morning, I've been told that, in essence, there are two things that physicians can't do at the White House medical unit: MRIs and surgeries. Virtually anything else can be done there if you have to or want to.

Pope Leo criticizes 'inhuman' treatment of immigrants in US
Pope Leo on Tuesday appeared to offer his strongest criticism yet of U.S. President Donald Trump's hardline immigration policies, questioning whether they were in line with the Catholic Church's pro-life teachings.

The president announces he is going to send troops into American cities (again) and immediately there is an outpouring of social media and mainstream media reaction minimizing the statement, saying it's just Trump being Trump, commenting on its weirdness. So, please, don't ask how this all happened.

Every single one of these clips was taken today in downtown Portland. Portland doesn’t want or need a federal takeover. If Trump insists on sending federal “resources” he can start with funding health care, bridges, affordable housing, and wildfire protection to name a few.

This is such a no-brainer that the lack of a coordinated response feels deeply damning. A Democratic leadership team that can't mobilize an instant all-hands-on-deck effort on RFK Jr. isn't a leadership team at all.
I know Democrats are overwhelmed (or rudderless, if you are less charitable) by the sheer volume of Trump authoritarian moves, but I’d like to see them unified behind specific goals like “RFK Jr is a threat to public health and needs to go.”

HUGE FLIP: Democrat Catelin Drey wins deep-red state Senate seat in Iowa, breaking the GOP's supermajority.
Drey won by 11 points in a district Donald Trump carried by 11 points last year. It's another massive overperformance. The Iowa GOP should be very worried for the midterms.

The irony is not lost on many in Washington that Trump says spitting on a DC cop is justification for hitting/punching back "hard" when he pardoned hundreds of Jan. 6 rioters who assaulted those same cops — and said attacks on them that day were "minor."
