Establishment "Democrat" Jamie Dimon Joins Mitch McConnell On The Losing Side Of History

DownWithTyranny at DownWithTyranny! - 12 seconds ago
The "Losing Side of History" phraseology comes from yesterday's column about #MoscowMitch in *Politico* Magazine by John Harris. Harris wrote that McConnell's (and the GOP's) "sprint to install a justice for a lifetime appointment this year, either days before a presidential election or in the lame-duck session afterward, looks a lot like the dying spasms of a political movement that began five decades ago." Now, at 78, McConnell is leading a party that depends on exploiting every avenue to preserve power despite not commanding national majorities. Starting in 1992, in seven p... more »

Warfare History Network at The National Interest - 1 hour ago
*Warfare History Network* *History, Americas* In 1862, the Civil War became deadly serious, and the people of the North and South realized the war would be long and bloody. No one expected this—not the fiercest “fire-eater” in South Carolina or the flintiest abolitionist in New England. By the time the guns fell silent at Shiloh on the night of April 7, 1862, soldiers on both sides of the battlefield realized that they had endured something never before seen in American history.

Jonathan Kanter at The National Interest - 5 hours ago

A white physician mistakes a Black physician for a janitor and says it was an honest mistake. A white woman asks to touch a Black classmate’s ... more »

Stephen Silver at The National Interest - 5 hours ago
