I lived in Soho in 2001, on Sullivan between Spring & Broome. From my street I could see the Empire State Building looking north & the World Trade Center looking South. Remembering that gaping hole in the sky looking South remains the memory that makes my heart still ache all these years later.

All this hand-wringing and recalculating over Woke 1.0 in the wake of MAGA 2.0 misses the larger picture and historical trend to my mind. MAGA 2.0 is basically "revenge of the dinosaurs" Yes, they can recklessly rampage and cause serious destruction, but their days are undeniably numbered.

I don’t see Blanche as being significantly worse than Bondi in terms of willingness to weaponize the DOJ. They’re both derelict in living up to the principle of independence. More of the same, in my opinion.

The GOP is thoroughly corrupt & most of the Dems are afraid of offending their financial overlords. Neither accomplishes anything to make our lives easier & they haven’t for years now. Is it any wonder voters are willing to try something new? Democratic Socialism isn’t magic. But it’s different.

Conservatives whining about the odd loss or two from this clearly partisan SCOTUS are hysterical. It’s not enough to win 90% of the cases, they’re *entitled* to win all of them or the whole system is “corrupt.” Funny how we can still agree on some things.
