  5. I’m not gonna say shouldn’t have interviewed a fascist. I will say the interviewer needed to prepare. It was so predictable that Jason Kessler would claim science on his side when he said whites are smarter than blacks. For God’s sake, have an answer ready. There are plenty.

  6. As I travel to discuss my book (((Semitism))), I am amazed at the complacency in the face of rising bigotry, especially from those who believe that anti-Israel sentiment on college campuses is more threatening than spreading racial & religious hatred.

  7. "The white nationalists know that despite their infamy and humiliation, their pathetic adherence to a genetic determinism they desperately hope will rescue their lonely lives from insignificance is slowly succeeding at remaking the country in their image."

  9. “What we’re seeing today is making me, frankly, calibrate not only what my children will be living but what I will be living, what I am currently living.” I saw The Babadook the other night. This jeremiad is scarier.

  10. . on Omarosa: “Instead of telling the truth about all the good Pres Trump & his admin are doing to make America safe & prosperous, this book is riddled w lies & false accusations. It’s sad that a disgruntled former WH employee is trying to profit off these false attacks”

  11. “My answer to anybody who doesn’t like the direction our Republican Party is going is to elect good Republicans.” w/ a so smart story on the most popular politicians in America right now: Republican governors in Deep Blue states.

    Pissed off middle aged women are the soccer moms of 2018. (Except their votes aren't up for grabs.) Love this on The Liberal Women of Chesterfield County (sounds like a title for a novel) and their quest to oust Tea Party darling Dave Brat.

  16. Melania’s parents become citizens, w/ the dreaded chain migration. “It’s a dirty — a dirtier word.” He went on: “It stands for a bedrock of our immigration process when it comes to family reunification.”

  17. At a prison reform discussion, Trump introduced Texas Atty Gen Ken Paxton: “Ken just filed a very interesting lawsuit that I hope is going to be successful.” This appeared to be a reference to Texas’ lawsuit to kill DACA. Paxton replied, “I know we’re right on the law."

  18. You'd think that if wanted to advance bipartisan legislation on prison reform at a meeting in Bedminster, he'd invite, you know, more than one Democrat.

  19. Inbox from Senate Leadership Fund: "Phil Bredesen announced today that Ben Folds and Jason Isbell will be headlining a political fundraiser for his U.S. Senate campaign. It’s a bold strategy for someone masquerading as a moderate."
