Republicans peddle an economic fairy tale. That cutting taxes increases revenue and spurs tremendous economic activity. It’s a lie. A fantasy. They wreck the economy. trib.al/ndBx4Jr

The modern United States has experienced 11 recessions. Ten have happened under Republican presidents. This isn’t a coincidence. They screw things up because they try to impose a fairy tale on the country. trib.al/NIXzdCN

It’s sad that it’s come to pass that we just automatically believe a foreign government—and China’s no less—over the president of the United States (sad about him, that is, not us). trib.al/OjoK9nf

The United States ranked 128th in how it is viewed by survey respondents across 85 countries. We netted out at -16. That’s behind Russia, Syria, and Myanmar, to name a few notables. But hey, we’re ahead of Iran! By a point. trib.al/JR5KqVX

In Georgia, for example, more than half a million people—all of them faced, remember, with higher gas and grocery prices—have decided to forgo coverage. trib.al/g9R1j76

Texas limits eligibility for Medicaid to families living below 15 percent of the poverty level, meaning that a family of three earning more than—get this—$4,098 annually is not eligible for any benefits. trib.al/Gbdhvdk

Do Democrats need to engage in a mass Maoist denunciation of Biden? Obviously not. But they do need to make it clear that they’re not stuck in the past. Biden isn’t ready to move on, but Democrats need to. trib.al/eQ50Uq2

So, zeroing in on an issue that resonates in Waterloo, Iowa but may mean absolutely nothing to the young progressives in Brooklyn is a good thing right off the bat. trib.al/4KQGGpI

If Axios is correct, offering Iran about 12 times that amount. If $1.7 billion was treason, then what’s $20 billion? trib.al/VnlMH80

Washington ceremonial architecture, like the government itself, must be returned to the purpose for which it exists—to promote democracy, not the demented, bruised ego of one sick man. trib.al/grBTZHf

Trump’s wife appearing to throw him under the bus. Not that she’s any hero. But she’s pretty clearly preparing for the day when the Epstein files are made public and she may have to cut bait, depending on what’s in them. trib.al/YwRseRU

The most important lesson the Democratic Party needs to absorb here is to turn away from California and find its national leaders from elsewhere. Swalwell seemed promising, but it turns out he’s a hideous person. trib.al/IUV6Ezv

Here’s the important thing to understand about Trump at this particular point in time. He does not think like a democrat (small d). He thinks like a dictator. And America doesn’t like anything he’s doing. trib.al/gsHbbXc
