Driftglass chooses between ranting about Glenn Greenwald and ranting about Michael Gerson. Blue Gal wonders if she’ll ever again be as optimistic about the future as Elizabeth Warren, and that makes her sad yet resolute.

Bill Kristol, Maggie Haberman, and the beltway media's circling of the wagons.

Mainstream media's obsession with "precedent" collides with Republicans persistent denial of their own history. Nixon? Never happened! George W. Bush? Never happened! And once Trump is gone, there will be a COLLUSION between the Republican power base and the beltway media to pretend it's all over and we can go back to "normalcy" and a "two-party" both sides system. We cannot. More at ProLeftPod.com.REVIEW US ON iTUNES | SUPPORT OUR... Read more

In spite of his administration’s efforts to front-load the narrative, the release of the Mueller Report has taken away the ability of Trump (and Barr) to tell the story of the Russia investigation. Narratives matter in Democratic politics and policy as well. More at ProLeftPod.com.Show Links:The G.O.P.

History will not judge Donald Trump, we will. It will require fighting the Trump-off machine that will inevitably be turned on by the frequently re-branding Republican Party, helped by the beltway media.

Driftglass and Blue Gal celebrate the day we met face to face eleven years ago. Oh sure, Roger Stone has a gag order from a federal judge, but Driftglass is in Twitter jail (again!). We feel chided by the Mister Rogers documentary, and instructed by Stacey Abrams. Ann Coulter's brand is undergoing a "transformation" ha ha ha. We are right about Never-Trust-a-Never-Trumper, and Donald Trump is totally off his own deep end. More at P... Read more
