What a day to be writing about 18th and 19th century views on public executions. Needless to say, 250 years ago, the same European thinkers that conservatives want us to read more of thought it was an archaic, barbaric, tyrannical practice that brutalized its spectators as much as its victims.

As someone who consumes propaganda all day long I’m really tired… What he really meant was… He was being sarcastic… It was a joke… I think he was trying to say… Journalists are NOT supposed to read minds. The quote is the quote. Only Trump can clarify what he meant.

Dr. Oz is on my flight right now. He is sitting in the very first seat, front row. I saw him get on the plane. So when I stepped off the jetway onto the plane I approached him and put my hand out. What the man in charge of healthcare for the people on the very margins of society said…was revealing
