I was thinking the other day about the Republican Party my parents belonged to. The one with Dwight Eisenhower, Ronald Reagan, G H W Bush. I can’t for the life of me understand how that party now champions Marjorie Taylor Greene, Steve Bannon, Elise Stefanik, and its bully-in-chief Donald Trump.

Mitch McConnell offers an object lesson for all the Republicans who think they can tame this tiger -- even if you do everything in your power to advance Trump's agenda and sabotage two different impeachment trials that would remove him, the Felon Messiah King will still demand your head.

CPR classes, Stop the Bleed classes, and other higher order medical training emphasize one thing initially. If you feel yourself getting wound up, check yourself. Pay attention to your heart rate and your breathing. That intentional act can keep you and others from reacting badly, making it worse.

I think a thing that's poorly understood about American history is that a lot of the progress made through the New Deal was driven by the political elite's fear of the Russian Revolution happening here and not by them having a sudden turn of heart after being visited by multiple ghosts or something.

Welp.
I think we’ll hear about presidential immunity from SCOTUS today.
The fact that this is an open question is stunningly wrong-headed.
You certainly can’t claim the founders wanted it.
Or rather, you can.
But you’d be wrong.
Here’s a brief explaining why.

In my book, this is worse than secretly taking lavish gifts: Clarence Thomas cut off the boy he was "raising as a son" after the kid failed a drug test in high school. He's in jail now, but doesn't think the Thomases even know. "I just wish they’d at least communicate with me," he says.

My take from recent economic data is this: nothing. Inflation probably isn’t taking off; growth probably isn’t stalling; probably still on a glide path to a soft landing, although maybe a little slower than hoped.

All of those past protest movements contained individuals who said and thought violent, hateful things. They also were *primarily* comprised of idealistic young people who wanted a more just and peaceful future. They didn’t have the solution to every situation, but knew the status quo was not ok.

Random artist appreciation post: Tom Björklund, "paleopainter."
He has an account at @tombjorklundart.bsky.social, but he's never posted, so I guess I'll do a bit for him.
His art of our ancestors and near-ancestors is warm, beautiful, and humanizing in a way I find very rare.

This interview is really something. Remnick tries his darndest to get Raffensperger to reckon with the wild conspiracy theories and apocalyptic violence that have become ubiquitous in his party, and all he gets in return is "I don't like that stuff, but Reagan was awesome, so I'm a Republican."
