This is the same old, “Your speech is violence, their violence is speech” standard in which questioning whether burning down cities is a good idea is worse than the BLM riots burning down cities. You may think this comes from Jennifer Rubin, Greg Sargent, Margaret Sullivan, or one of the Washington Post’s more embarrassing party…

Ukrainian diplomacy is starting to feel like being accosted by a homeless man on the subway. “Give me a buck, give me a smoke, I need a dog.” When it comes to Israel, Zelensky’s people made it sound like he was demanding Iron Dome.  Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky used his address to MKs and cabinet ministers…

These are really bad numbers, especially for an era of rigidly lockstep partisan politics, mindless echo chambers, and constant media spin. The Biden numbers are obviously bad overall, but the weakness among Democrats is what really stands out.

But I can’t think of a worse time for Biden to decide to screw American steelworkers and throw away whatever’s left of the Rust Belt.  Then…

Remember the ridiculous whining from Kamala’s fans (all 5 of them, who work in the media) about a Vogue photo of her that was seen as unflattering. Apparently, this was coming from the top down. The leaked cover photo, which featured Harris in Converse and skinny pants, was “an approachable but less than grand depiction of…
