You’ve seen this movie before: Maybe Reagan guessed, Bush hoped, and Trump tried—but tax cuts never paid for themselves. Given the mountain of evidence, claiming once again that "tax cuts will pay for themselves" is no longer ideologically motivated optimism. It's a lie.

This is remarkable. New Quinnipiac poll finds support for path to legalization for most undocumented immigrants has risen to 64%. Only 31% want most of them deported. That's a 14 point net swing for legalization since Trump took office. On immigration generally, he's at 41-57!

On so many issues right now, Republicans are the dog that caught the bus. They've done an outstanding job of selling the public on magical promises and internally contradictory double-talk, and now they're actually trying to implement it, with horrific, evil, disastrous, obvious consequences.

How do I get it through to progressives that even the most drenching soak-the-rich taxes will not pay for everything they want. Hell, it won’t even pay for all the things I want. I don’t care how your favorite revolutionary tells you his funding plans: the numbers will just not add up.

Apparently, it’s totally cool to tell Jews what we really think and decide that you know more than your Jewish friends on Israel, Palestine, and Zionism because you’ve “listened to people online”. I will say this as many times as I need to, but other people don’t get to redefine Zionism for Jews. 1/

LaRouchists consider all family planning assistance in the developing world to be some sort of genocidal Malthusian conspiracy courtesy the British royal family to cull the human population. Funny, then, when I look at women in the LaRouche Movement, and how few children they tend to have, if any.

Claiming that a guy going to a Jewish museum to murder Jews somehow wasn’t antisemitic because his victims, unbeknownst to him, happened to work at the Israeli embassy and one was religiously Christian is exactly why I don’t feel safe around the left.
