    We have learned nothing.

    Beto O’Rourke got the cover of Vanity Fair. Pete Buttigieg got the covers of New York magazine and Time. You’d never know that Kamala Harris leads them in the polls, or that she out-raised Buttigieg, or that her CNN town hall had higher viewership.

    The Fred Trump kicker on this is savage.

    Breaking: "In fact, year after year, Mr. Trump appears to have lost more money than nearly any other individual American taxpayer...His core business losses in 1990&1991-more than $250 million...were more than double those of the nearest taxpayers..."

    "I have Marx in my bones and you have him in your mouth." Some artists work in oils, others in whoop ass.

    I just read Joan Robinson’s “Open letter from a Keynesian to a Marxist” for the first time, and it really is a marvellous piece, peppered with gorgeous metaphors, insightful economic asides, and the occasional sick burn.
