Years from now, a writer will use the symbolism of workers under an early morning shroud, removing Donald Trump’s name from the Kennedy Center. I picture a future story about a long ordeal, the nation recovering from the damage wrought by MAGA Republicans. Gone by then, I hope, in a nation healed.
To me the most important revelations in the Sixty Minutes fiasco were the revelations from Scott Pelley and Cecelia Vega that they had been told to insert falsehoods and bias into their stories. I’ve had beefs with my media bosses but nothing approaching that. CBS News is a tragic mess.
When a perp runs for office and his defense attorney jumps up to endorse the other guy, that’s the end of the line. Holy crap, his lawyer turned state’s witness. “You honor, no matter what my client says, he’s guilty as hell.” Ken Paxton, what a piece of work. Only in Texas.
