    This is what Reagan’s speechwriting team called ‘bomfog’ — ‘brotherhood of man, fatherhood of god.’ Rhetorical taffeta.

    Dignity is jarring when it appears out of nowhere like this.

    Hardiman ingratiated himself with Team Trump last year by pretending to head to DC in an elaborate ruse to deceive reporters into thinking Trump wasn’t picking Gorsuch

    In 2013 I was attacked on Twitter for suggesting the Bangladesh factory collapse, which killed more than 1,100 ppl, was one if the most important stories of the year...

    One of the jarring things about the Thai cave story: 41 people died when a boat capsized in Thailand on Thursday evening and nobody really cared. It’s a pretty clear illustration of how we latch onto stories that are gripping while ignoring worse human suffering that lacks drama.

    Bravo for writing the story that most perfectly encapsulates our country’s role in the world in 2018.

    This seems worthy of a state AG investigation. Oh, it’s Pam Biondi who herself received a $25,000 contribution from Trump, who campaigned against a ‘rigged’ political system.

    review of the Trump Foundation’s tax records found a pattern — donations, typically $25,000 — to eight charities after they relocated their events to Maralago

    I hope everyone takes a moment today to remember Saman Gunan, the Thai Navy Seal that died making sure the kids stuck in the cave had enough oxygen so that today's rescue would even be possible.

    Glenn have you ever read Evicted by Matt Desmond? It paints a picture of Milwaukee that Sheriff Clark seems to be unaware of.

    Context: 4 people died under Sheriff Clarke’s tenure running Milwaukee’s jail system — including an inmate who died of thirst and infant.

    With LIBERAL DEMOCRAT Mayor Rahm Emanuel and Chicago Police Superintendent Eddie Johnson in charge, the GREAT CITY of CHICAGO is on the path to becoming the NEXT DETROIT. Businesses leaving followed by middle class residents. God PLEASE save Chicago.

    Huh

    Dershowitz appears to be conflating two things here. When the president exercises power to pardon or fire it cannot be reversed, regardless of motive. That doesn't mean the act itself cannot constitute obstruction or breach his oath of office.
