Yesterday, though I am certainly not following the Manhattan criminal trial closely, this headline intrigued me, and after reading it, I thought y’all might enjoy it (Including the comments.) I remember watching video on the first day Cohen had to appear in court. He was on the sreet outside the courthouse, and he must have been early, because he was moving around somewhat aimlessly and waas clearly uncomfortably. Other people were on the sidewalk, going both directions, but no one made eye contact with him. I said to myself then that the gravity of his actions had come home to him, and that he already was not the same person, even though he’d have a long rioa growing fully into the new Michael Cohen. I have seen no reason to change my mind about that. (I planned to watch Lawrence last night for what he might have to say – but I’ll have posted this before that happens.)
This, from Robert Reich, is perhaps the best description I’ve seen of what is happening in the U.S. which greatly upsets me (and probably you also.)
And this, from Heather Cox Richardson, I can only call a masterpiece. It reveals just about everything about how we got herer, without even using the term “trickle-down.”
