If Biden had been wearing some weird device, reporters would have asked questions about it. But the White House press corps fears Trump, so they don’t ask about this or the spackle covering his bruised hands.

The problem? No federal official can seize control of election administration from the states and counties, who hold the power run elections under the U.S. Constitution.

After ICE murdered Renee Nicole Good on a Minneapolis street, Karoline Leavitt called her a "deranged, lunatic woman" who committed "domestic terrorism." Good's last words to the ICE agent who killed her were: "I'm not mad at you." The NY Times didn't mention that in its story about Leavitt.

My most basic take is you can't get to outcomes like this unless you're willing to use your leverage. Impeachment is the leverage. Do one every month on a new set of charges, he's done well over 24 months of impeachable stuff. Keep him on trial the rest of the term, park John Roberts in the Senate.

The NY Times uses words like “fierce,” “steely,” “nimble” and “homegrown star of the Trump White House” to describe Karoline Leavitt, who just got a Fox News gig. Not a single mention of her relentless lying to the American public. Reporter Michael M. Grynbaum and his editors suck.
