I taught college political science courses for 43 years, and I've lost all faith in the "mainstream media" and their coverage of American government, and especially of U.S. foreign policy. Has no one at CNN, the New York Times, the Washington Post or the major TV networks learned anything from the Vietnam War, the invasion of Iraq or the continuing violence in the Middle East? Thank goodness for the insightful coverage of commentators like Jack Mirkinson. Dana Bash is only the latest talking head to mindlessly parrot the lies and biased talking points of the national security state. If, God forbid, President Biden loses the election in November, it will be because he insists on carrying his 20th-Century Cold War mentality into the 2020s. And no one in the mainstream media is doing anything to warn him about the impending catastrophe.
Remember, Biden fell hook, line and sinker for the beheaded babies lie and repeated it in a national speech. The power of propaganda to steer government policy is staggering. In this case, the amount of money and military weaponry unconditionally being given to Israel by the Biden administration is outrageous and unless Biden snaps out of it, it's going to cost him, and us, dearly in November.
He's said it more than once, even after the WH supposedly walked his original comment back. That's the kicker. He's saying it on purpose. There is nothing for him to snap out of--this is it.
He will lose. Ever notice how the wealthy are rarely worried about fascism? They see no slot for themselves in the Niemöller progression. They will be looking the other way when the pike parade finds them, and if Donny DrillDrillDrill gets in that will come about, because the kids are the only ones with skin in the climate crisis game; the rest of us will cash in whatever chips we have and climb onto our WALL-E people deck chairs - the ones salvaged from the Titanic.
FWIW, eric adams needs to be reminded that ANYONE protesting genocide, if their so called country is signatory to the UN Convention on Genocide then those citizens are doing what the convention requires: taking action to prevent. Anyone not doing so is complicit.
Finally, couldn’t resist this observation: as I regard Dana Bash’s literally chiselled (ok, scalpeled) face, I realized that even though her makeup is wrong, you can’t miss The Joker’s gash of a grin.

We see you, Dana.
