Because, again: Disability is the only minority anyone can join at any time, & which everyone will join, if they're lucky enough to live that long. A disease, a quirk of genetics, a bus, a bad fall from a curb. Anything. And the only thing we have that could consistently make this fact survivable…

Did I miss a first reference to "McEnany" in that piece? The name pops up in the third paragraph but nowhere before that.

How many Trump Cabinet members/senior staff have called on the US to reject him? Hint: it's a much larger number than D officials vs. Biden and you'd think that putting that counter alongside this one would be the minimum of balance required of an ethical news venue.

The best tweet of the day… no, the month. I really didn’t know that the neo-Nazis had these many sympathizers. If you are still wondering how millions of people perished in concentration & death camps, well, it starts with people like this guy. Yes, I’m saying it & meaning it quite literally.

The "let's go with the fascist so the revolution can happen" crowd is especially wild because, like, they had this literal exact fascist four years ago, and did not have a revolution? Didn't even come close to one? Actually ended with the moderate in question just barely sneaking into office?

Well... they certainly seem to mean what they're saying here. Whether that in fact makes them serious is questionable.

Just to be really explicit about what’s happening here, the cover conflates age, physical disability, and cognitive disability, and goes on to conflate disability with unfitness for office. It’s utter bullshit.

When you see the way the press is treating Joe Biden for aging in public, you see how they could treat Donald Trump for committing fraud, rape, espionage, and insurrection and never, ever will.

Remember how the "retail theft crime wave" disappeared as soon as companies had to do their annual reports? That's because it's illegal to lie to shareholders.
