NEW: NEW: John Fetterman's fundraising firm, MissionWired, quit working for him in June. So he started offering right-wing groups like RedMajorities and TrumpTruth a hefty commission to raise him money. Even Sen. Mike Lee has joined the rush for cash. Gift link: www.theatlantic.com/politics/202...

what a strange coincidence that every woman has friends who have been sexually assaulted (and quite possibly has been herself) and no man seems to be friends with any rapists!

NYT has now independently corroborated all the major allegations against Susan Collins in the ProPublica report, including that investigators were prepared to move against her and then Trump intervened to shut it down. This put Trump in a position of exceptional and extortionate leverage over her.

F.B.I. Shut Down Inquiry Into Top Ally of Senator Susan Collins
The inquiry was closed last year because senior bureau officials questioned the veracity of a campaign donor’s account, according to current and former officials.

The American people spent years claiming that Trump was “playing 4D chess.” He’s a complete fraud. A moron, a coward, a malignant narcissist, and a serial sex abuser. Unfortunately, our electorate is no better, and idolize him for being “one of them.” Stupidity is everywhere around us.

My 4 cents ( inflation).. rate hikes are worst remedy for what ails the economy because it’s bad policy choices away from the Fed that are driving inflation not the tilt of monetary policy.. this tack leads to widespread demand destruction
