The best tool against disinformation? Media literacy.

That's what Barb McQuade says in my next episode, who urges that you go beyond the headline: bit.ly/42X2RPq

Why doesn't Justice Merchan take the approach of Judge McAfee in Atlanta? His daughter can sever her relationship with the consulting firm, the appearance of impropriety disappears, and the trial can proceed.

Many well meaning supporters of Israel think Bibi is the right man to lead the war effort. They are wrong. Without him, there would never have been an October 7th. Let's look at the full history:

* Netanyahu voted for the Gaza disengagement, which allowed Hamas to take over. He…

I agree. He must take action even if he loses in court. But, first and foremost, he should take the fight to Trump and compare his strategies with Trump's on the border. It was Trump's failure to buld the wall and put them all in cages strategy which led to the current crisis.

Axelrod: 'I would not rely, if I were Biden’s people, too much on the fact Trump killed the border bill. I think he’s going to have to do something by Executive Order. He has to look like he’s seizing control of this situation...Time is growing short.'

No other choice. Trump moved to recuse/disquialify judges in New York, but lost. Neither of the NY judges as biased as Cannon. It rerally is shocking.

“We live in a world where the only US president ever to attempt a coup has a too-close-for-comfort chance of being re-elected on a platform of overt fascism. That changes everything. We do not have the luxury of indifference.

We do not have the luxury of being “just”…

Welker is an airhead, and a dangerous one at that. Some NBC lawyer should take her to the woodshed and explain that an attack on a judge's daughter by a criminal defendant is not free speech.
