    CSPAN has posted the entire nearly 8-minute exchange between Kamala Harris and Kavanaugh on the Mueller probe. It is worth your time.

    Yuge regrets at not catching up on DIETLAND earlier. You were right: clicks after the first two episodes and turns into something cathartic, sharp and wild.

    I am having such hideous gleeful reactions to lines like this... “The president was already feeling especially vulnerable — and a deep ‘sense of paranoia,’ in the words of one confidant — in the wake of his devastating portrayal in Woodward’s book.” I really do hate this era.

    As strong an analysis as I’ve seen re: the authorship of the anonymous op-ed.

    The just published an anonymous op-ed from a "senior administration official." I'd like to posit a guess as to who wrote it. Getting my on began with a single word that jumped out at me...

    Trump would've been out of office months ago if y'all took my advice and told him he's not man enough to jump a motorcycle over Dead Man's Gulch

    Huh. Seems too easy, on a few different levels, but that’s a hell of a lot of lodestar.

    I feel like I'm not getting enough credit for being an early Lodestar adopter.

    If this really IS a simulation, Trump himself wrote that op-ed, as Killer BOB.

    The *text* of the op-ed is painting a picture of Trump as an amoral child. But the *action* of the op-ed is bragging about how they have made Trump more effective at realizing his and the GOP's agenda.

    On the one hand, this is self-justifying narishkeit by someone who loves the word "lodestar." On the other hand, it is going to drive Trump ABSOLUTELY INSANE WITH PARANOIA!
