Musk’s coup really is just the reductio ad absurdum of the Bush-Obama education policy, where a 19 year old who can code is a more desirable outcome than all the accumulated knowledge of government, science, history, ethics, sociology, etc.

Rubio's state dept appointee is a white supremacist and a misogynist. I remember not too long ago when a Republican who said this would be disqualified from high profile federal jobs forever.

Elon Musk, who has taken control of the US Treasury and is bragging about unilaterally cutting off payments to disfavored populations worldwide in defiance of Congress and the American people, is nowhere to be found on the homepage of the New York Times. @nytimes.com, this is pathetic.

as long as journalists and pundits act as if they are amateur political strategists & not people trying to understand and tell the truth about the world, they are going to take the implicit view that voters can never be wrong, which then demands endless explanation of their morally blameless choice
