Reader Supported News
26 July 19

If we keep going at this pace we will fail financially. But we don’t want to offend anyone, so we are looking for feel-good way to panic.
The reality is that we need to pick up the pace.
Please.

Marcetic writes: "Remember the frenzied, paranoid style of right-wing anti-Clintonism? The lies, the conspiracy theories, the deeply personal disgust? Well, it's back - only this time it's migrated to the Democratic Party and its unhinged attacks on Bernie Sanders."

Excerpt: "On Thursday a report from the Senate Intelligence committee concluded all 50 states were targeted in 2016 and ahead of the 2018 election 'top election vulnerabilities remained.' But there's no help coming from Congress."

EXCERPT: 

The Senate Democratic leader, Chuck Schumer of New York, called inaction by Congress a “disgrace” and pledged to keep pushing for votes. Mueller’s testimony “should be a wake-up call,” he said.

“Leader McConnell, let me read you that sentence,” Schumer said from the Senate floor, citing Mueller’s testimony Wednesday before the House committees about Russian interference. “‘They’re doing it as we sit here, and they expect to do it in the next campaign.'”

Republicans Are Trying to Smear Ilhan Omar With a Ridiculously Doctored Video
Rafi Schwartz, Splinter
Schwartz writes: "The right-wing smear machine revved up again on Thursday, continuing President Donald Trump's racist attacks on Minnesota Rep. Ilhan Omar by promoting a heavily edited video they're spinning as a smoking gun to show that Omar's the REAL racist." 



 

EXCERPT [THIS IS ARMED WHITE DOMESTIC TERRORISM]: 

Just this week, FBI Director Christopher Wray testified that the majority of domestic terrorism arrests made this past year were related to white supremacists, a trend Omar was clearly drawing on in making her point about conservative hypocrisy.
Oddly enough, I haven’t seen any denizens of the right-wing fever swamp demand Wray apologize for being racist. I wonder why?
