And you're what, an intellectual?

Prove your stuff - all i see is a drop-in trying to stir shit with mostly well-trodden debunked talking points, acting smug and know-it-all. Not a good start.

Your issue with Susan Rice, for example - you just name drop her and just assume everyone will agree and laud whatever sins and transgressions you think she's made? While meanwhile you presumably support a bunch of fhckwads who've been trashing and stealing from the government the last 4 years. Prove me wrong. The true believers are still lining up to suck Trump's dick as he makes his anti-Constitutional claims and is busy making rash and destructive last minute changes to justice, the military, the economy, other protections provided by different government departments, specifically counter to their function and purpose. Whether that's to buck up Putin and MbS and whoever else he owes favors to, or he's just an asshole, idduno, but it would serve the country better if the Republicans weren't still playing *their* partisan hackdom and raging against as much precedent and tradition as possible (how this is still somehow "conservatism" is beyond me). Do you back Trump & co.'s shitstorm, or do you have some independence left? Do you think it's cool for Trump kids and Pompeo and Mnuchin et al to be banking big bucks off their roles in government, and doing back deals with foreign governments while purportedly serving the US? (similar to Flynn not divulging he was working for Turkey as he entered US service). Do you think it cool for the President to call different countries to ask them to find dirt on his opponents, to call state officials to have them overturn an election?

So tell us a bit about *your* philosophy, Jeff/whoever - not just kicking against what we write, but what moral political philosophy makes you want to show up and bang it out with such a tiny backwater site.

It's not about you!

i'm all for keeping a skeptical eye on our government,.once a new one starts, that is. Just curious, though, since his one hasn't started yet, what exactly are you afraid of? Cause I can't imagine things getting much worse domestically than they already are. And just for one example, the current president doesn't trust his own government, he keeps firing everyone he hires and doesn't seem to be able to do anything he promised and promisesfor four years..

And then there's the health care system collapsing...

Usually it's pretty common for voters to thrown the bum(s) out when that happens.

Trust Trump! The glaring self absorbed con man, who salutes North Korean generals and exchanges 'love letters' with the country's homicidal juvenile tyrant?

Susan Rice claiming she will restore trust in the government is pretty funny. Maybe she's using a different defintion of "trust".

Smart move. Susan is bright, committed and gets things done. She has experience coordinating various agencies to develop coherent policy. She understands the need for reform and positive change. This will be seen as one of Joe Biden’s best appointments. https://t.co/j2ivqb7WJi
