I’m happy to inform. They’re in Hungary, hearing from its autocratic leader, and how they need to overtake the media to control the authoritarian message. Really patriotic stuff.

The Senate has changed as well. Over time. From state legislatures choosing Senators to direct voting. I’m glad we’re having the conversation about it. I’m not here to advocate anything. Just take the temperature. And apparently a lot of folks have an opinion about it. /end

The country has changed a lot in 240+ years. And our constitution has as well. Black people - dragged to this country in chains - are recognized as fully human now (as opposed to 3/5ths), women have been voting for 100 years. Alcohol was prohibited and made legal again. And...

Some would say one chamber - the one w/ equal representation for each state, big/small, has more power than the other. And if either chamber can’t agree or reconcile (or a bill cannot even get a vote, as has happened numerous times in the past) then how fair is that? You tell me.

How about a win for people who legally voted, despite their political party?
The Supreme Court will allow absentee ballots in North Carolina to be received and counted up to 9 days after Election Day, in a win for Democrats.

I suspect some would argue rock bottom was not giving a president, duly chosen by a majority of the people, the ability to nominate a Supreme Court justice of his own and have that judge get even the first Senatorial hearing.
Sen. Susan Collins: "Our Supreme Court confirmation process has been in steady decline for more than 30 years. One can only hope that the Kavanaugh nomination is where the process has finally hit rock bottom."

He was one of the first normalizing the Trump campaign. And I remember this piece about him in particular:
In case you sometimes wonder why reporters fail to hold the President accountable... why they fail to ask tough questions.. why they write columns about Trump’s “reality show” Presidency...
You’ve probably thought: Cillizza could not possible be this ignorant.. this mediocre.

Honest to God, I try to be as objective as I possibly can be, about everything, but what happened at the United States Capitol today - May 28 - is even worse than what happened there on January 6. This ain’t a story for both sides. This is our country.

My dad fled war-torn Greece to come to America in 1950. Served in the US Army for 4 years at Panama Canal. Operated restaurants for decades, raised a good family and flew the flag of freedom every day from his front porch. Died 8 years ago. He would be horrified by this moment.
