Jack Smith: "Our investigation developed proof beyond a reasonable doubt that President Trump engaged in serious crimes against our nation ... rather than accept his defeat in the 2020 election, he engaged in a criminal scheme to overturn the results and prevent the lawful transfer of power"

There is no Republican "split" with Trump. It's catnip for access media, but the desperate ploy to align with the supermajority of voters who can't stand the president is tissue-thin. The same people saying the Iran war needs to end voted yesterday to keep it going. #Realtalk here.

NEW: As a former TV news reporter, producer & exec, people often ask about my recommended news sources. One suggestion: figure out who owns the local TV stations in your community. If you are watching one owned by Sinclair, change the channel to one that does fact based reporting, not MAGA PR.

As an American history professor, I regularly read new books, articles, and dissertations, and also evaluate unpublished manuscripts for journals and book publishers. I would not categorize the recent and emerging historiography in the binary way that Ezra Klein does.
There has been a severing of American history into two visions: one that can only see glory and one that can only see suffering and sin.

Treat lies like obscenities.
Kate Cohen
Former Post contributing columnist
My dream new journalistic standard would make it unacceptable to quote a lie in a news story. In the deep-fake, bot-infested Trump era, it’s no longer enough for news organizations to seek truth; we need them to protect the public from lies. Lies should be treated like obscenities, graphic violence or sexual content. That means literally refusing to repeat a transparent lie — not quoting it early and then offering corrective facts two paragraphs or 30 seconds later. Sure, sometimes it’s a judgment call whether a statement falls just to the spin side of the mendacity line. But sometimes it’s obvious. You know how news stories avoid quoting profanity by saying things like “he said, adding an expletive for emphasis”? That’s how reporters should deal with lies: e.g., “he said, before repeatedly lying about …” As for lying on live TV? Bring on the bleeps!
