When he's at the podium at a press conference, he's in control and reporters are at a disadvantage. It's the kind of thing that used to happen in Argentina under the military dictatorship, but then the storm troopers arrived in Ford Falcons.I see the Portland situation as a step to nullifying the election. I could guess that perhaps, having filleted Trump in such a devastating manner, Wallace might not want to pigeonhole himself within the Fox News Universe as a Never Trumper. I, too, have taken an oath to uphold the Constitution and laws of the US. You will recall that those briefings were a political disaster for Trump, and I see no reason to believe it's a good idea to repeat the self-harm, but I guess they are the closest thing to the rallies Trump needs like other people need oxygen, so here he comes. My father was a bigot, but I turned 180 degrees in the other direction and I've never looked back. His life was one that was well lived. Momentum right now is on the side of civil rights; what can be done to reduce the extemism which often comes with activism. His column appears on Tuesdays and Fridays. In 2009, he received the Pulitzer Prize for Commentary for his columns on the 2008 presidential campaign that focus on the election of the first African-American president. An American hero, long time medical expert and public servant, and a huge Nats fan. He will not change.
Is Wallace trying to triangulate between MSM and MAGA, or does he genuinely believe that the proper way to push back on gaslighting is to find polite euphemisms for "lie"?First and foremost, I thought that Chris Wallace did a terrific job in that interview. This president will simply take control (or send his “police” to do so) of various, bluish cities, effectively shutting down polling places and/or intimidating voters into staying home. Kemp has taken the most extreme anti-mask position of all the GOP governors. It is Trump’s enablers and lackeys that politicize his obscene whims. Earlier Saturday, Robinson lounged by the hotel pool with his wife, Gia, and their 9-year-old son, Brandon. Fauci deserves the honor.
The loss of the courageous and brilliant John Lewis saddens me greatly, but it also leaves me grateful that this country -- all of us, no matter who we are -- had him in our lives. He is married to Avis C. Robinson. Why else do it and then escalate it to other cities?Well, the other reason to do it would be as a performance -- an episode in the Trump Show -- designed to appeal to the "silent majority" that Trump imagines will save his bacon.He's just going to use them to repeat his lie that our high case numbers are just because we do so much testing. The youngest of the three who were murdered by police was 17 year old Delano Middleton, a high school student. He's just ego and self-interest, lashing out in directions that don't cohere into any kind of political philosophy or strategy.Posting early but I've got to get this out.

Is there no requirement at all that they have to have some suspicion that the person is undocumented before they can snatch him or her off the street. Polls show him doing even worse on the racial justice issue than on the virus, so that could be self-harming, too. John Lewis got his skull fractured on that bridge to secure voting rights for all Americans. I'd like these politicians to be on record for when the reckoning comes, and I'd also like them to be on record for when the President transgresses the politicians' personal boundaries.I'ed like them on record, too, but they won't answer that question.
Eugene, if I am not mistaken, you lived in this area at the time. These are bully tactics, and the only way to deal with a bully is to stand up to him. I'm guessing that it is because they have some really, really broad powers to stop and detain people within X number of miles of any border or coastline of the US.
There is no looting.
Gene, I'm terrified of what we may be in store for come November: an outbreak of “Portlands” across the country. Anonymous federal officers are active in Portland, Oregon. I am seriously worried about this, as he has shown he has no respect for this city and its residents, and people here are frustrated and worried. I take it very seriously. But no, he won't be able to cancel the election.What an absolutely brilliant move by the Nats to have him throw out the first pitch. If this were a Democratic president doing these things, you would hear a deafening howl of protest from Republicans who saw liberty itself being exterminated. Well, buckle up. The federal thugs make me sick to my stomach.This sickens me, too.
However, the idea that Trump is politicizing these things is incorrect. And I hope he throws a strike.Did you notice the pale TAN suit that Senator Mitch McConnell was wearing yesterday for his Oval Office visit? Submit your comments on his columns and any other questions you might have.
