By the way, good job by newspapers to push back against the “fake news” idiocy from the Gropenfuhrer today; the CNN story is here, and nice work by The Intelligencer in these parts is here (but Eric Boehlert is correct IMHO here too).
Update 8/17/18: Yes, Jack Shafer made a good point here that the press blew it in covering our Treasonous, Tiny-Handed Orange Dictator, but are they now supposed to do NOTHING in response? I was always taught that you're supposed to stand up to bullies.
Now, turning to our demented orange child king…Seth Meyers gets into some Omarosa-related stuff here (again, I don’t care about the “N” word tape, not because it isn’t bad but because you’d have to be stoo-pid at this point to think Trump ISN’T a racist)…
…and Brett Erlich and Ana of TYT tell us about the one racist guy getting yelled at by his dad and the other one complaining about life on his boat, or something…
…and I thought this was a hilarious idea from Frederick Joseph, even though he was trying to make a serious point, but of course there was nothing even remotely funny about some of the reactions he got for it…
…and RIP to the Queen of Soul, remembered by critic Jon Pareles in this fine New York Times feature (more here - for what it’s worth, Elvis passed on this day in history too)…
…and trying to highlight her best work over only the next couple of days is a fool’s errand I know, but here are a couple of selections we know well.
