The best question a reporter ever asked of Trump was the one S.V. Date asked in 2020: “Mr. President, …do you regret at all, all the lying you’ve done to the American people?” The White House press corps needs to be at least that tough today—indeed tougher, given Trump’s degraded state of mind.

IMO it’s clear from Richard Hanania’s own words that he believes that rape, both statutory and violent, is the right of a certain kind of man. Elite men

It’s appalling that this man is given a drop of ink or a second of interview time in our media. My latest: www.liberalcurrents.com/richard-hana...

Hanania is a reminder of the dangers of rehabilitating extremist intellectuals.

He is also a constant cheerleader for “age-gap relationships.” Hanania doesn’t seem to believe any man should be denied a teenager they find attractive.

I've noticed that most of the men who are mad at statutory rape laws are aggressive middle age types who seem to have a deep personal interest in the issue

like for example 41-year-old Richard Hanania

Remember when he and Putin got caught on a mic and Putin was rambling about how biotechnology was going to let people live forever and Xi was trying to make small talk.
Xi Jinping looks like a man who has psychologically prepared himself to hear a lot of bullshit and just ignore it.

Wow….wild to hear Taylor say she’s glad Elon took over Twitter and that it’s better than ever.

I mean, the unconstrained growth of the far right on there? Musk’s thumb seemingly on the algorithm’s scale during elections? The impact on democracy?

MAGA deny how truly stupid they actually are. Not because they want different political policies, but because they go along with all of the rhetoric, nonsense & full blown lies that #Felon and his band of idiots spew forth from that nasty gash under their noses.

We shouldn't have to rebuild whatever Trump destroys.

We SHOULD be MORE than capable of protecting landmarks from Trump's destruction, in the FIRST place.
Donald Trump might yet demolish the Kennedy Center

But he will never vanquish the spirit of America

And whatever he destroys can-and will-be rebuilt
