great piece from the always-great @pastpunditry.bsky.social and a welcome antidote to vacuous commentators whose historical memories seem to go back no further than the first iron man movie

I know we're desensitized, but it's important to note, again, that today's events would have led to the immediate impeachment & removal of any president from at least Truman to at least Obama. We're hundreds of miles on the interstate past Richard Nixon's high school prank-level crimes compared to 👇

“Health care for illegal aliens” is the new “immigrants are eating cats and dogs in Springfield.”

The Republican playbook is simple: make up a baseless lie, repeat it every chance you get, hope and pray that everyone blames Democrats for the crises you created.

My mom called me last night about the Kimmel firing, saying "This is how Hitler got started!" I quickly responded, "By firing the late night tv hosts?"

Turns out, mom was right.

Missouri has been running the pilot for Project 2025 for a couple of decades.

With a GOP Supermajority, over 30% of our schools are on a four-day week. We fund vouchers for private religious schools. Our starting teachers are 50th in the nation for pay and they pay for their own supplies.

I go to Synogogue to escape the dismantling of my country. I go to forget the disgrace that happened in the WH. Being able to forget myself in tradition and community makes me sane.

A disgrace. Zelensky came out the winner in that WH round. So everyone has to kiss Trump’s ass in order to get anything. Graham showed he knows how to kowtow already. I'm so ashamed of my country. We are a laughing stock on the one hand and a danger on the other. Sold out to Putin.
