I wonder when it’ll start sinking in for Progressives that culturally speaking they’ve now taken the place of the neocons and evangelicals of the ‘90s.

We used to rail against those guys and their propagandist media allies like Fox News. It’s what made the Daily Show so great in that era. It’s so weird how power corrupts.

Also, the grift is real. The guy moved from DLA to Willkie: big step up in firm. Willkie trying to cash in on their political connections.

A7 - I feel the same way. I try to give victims the benefit of the doubt but refuse to be naive about incentives to lie. Without further corroboration, it’s hard to draw any firm conclusion one way or the other but I do think it’s still a valuable data point.
