I have been in Italy for two weeks and I can tell you firsthand, the story coming out of the Trump camp about Georgia Meloni begging for a photo op is political spin of the highest order. Let me give you the real numbers.
The New York Times ran a Father’s Day essay that had nothing to do with fatherhood. I want to talk about a different Father’s Day message, one that’s 150 years old and more relevant than anything in today’s media.
Washington is begging you to be scared of China while they rob you blind with deficit spending that would make a Vegas loan shark blush. I am not buying the boogeyman, and neither should you.
I am going to call out something that has infected political commentary the same way junk fees infected the financial industry. It is whataboutism, it is intellectually dishonest, and the people running it on you every night are laughing all the way to their next contract renewal.

Let’s be blunt: the GOP has been incompetent on this issue for more than a decade. Completely, undeniably incompetent. I remember Trump’s first term when Republicans were chanting “repeal and replace.” Great. Repeal and replace. Except they only had the first […]
Every time we hit one of these “must-pass” funding deadlines, I tell you the same thing: watch what they do right before Christmas, when nobody pays attention. And like clockwork, here we are. Right now, Senators Mike Lee, Ron Johnson, and Rick Scott have brought five appropriations bills to a standstill. Why? Because of earmarks—the same pork-barrel garbage Republicans once […]
