Thank you for this comment; as someone who spent a portion of his legal career directly adverse to your clients, I have to say that this issue is more complicated than this article portrays it as being. While that work was not a comfortable ideological fit for me, as my politics generally would put me on the side of…

This Admin is redefining the term ‘political corruption’ in ways that are so ridiculously flagrant, it’s almost like they know they’ll face no consequences from a knuckle-dragging base of supplicants, a cowed press, and terrified political opponents. Weird, huh?

I don’t know if I agree that the experts quoted in this article support the article’s headline. To me, they seem to be saying, “well, yeah, they are a measure, just one you have to be aware of the limitations of.” We make practical use of many things like this in everyday life where the thing being approximated with…

Progressive taxation. I mean real progressive taxation - like there should be a 90% bracket over say $5 million a year.

Of the 16 shows you mentioned, 4 are HBO which is a different line item (unless it’s a time-based promotion, such as “included in the first year”). So $15 (HBO) for 4 shows.

HOLY SHIT ARE YOU KIDDING ME?

i feel it was a little disingenuous of you to have removed the ‘Sent from my iPhone’ signature at the end of your article

B&W makes excellent headphones, but not especially affordable headphones. Their wired headphones are worth the premium in terms of sound quality and build. I don’t expect sound quality to be quite as good on these since they’re wireless, but if it’s close they’re probably worth the $400.

1. Whataboutism is weak argument. Don’t deflect. Is this good behavior or not?

But Russia DID interfere with our election. There’s literally nothing false about that “narrative.”
