Blog Credo

The whole aim of practical politics is to keep the populace alarmed (and hence clamorous to be led to safety) by menacing it with an endless series of hobgoblins, all of them imaginary.

The Memo

I think Representative Ted Lieu put it best: Remember when Geraldo Rivera opened Capone's vault?  It will be like that, but Geraldo has more integrity.

This is a partisan press release masquerading as "intel."  The key here will be that media report it as such.  The NYTimes, naturally, is already failing by calling it a "secret memo."  No.  It's a partisan press release that seeks to undermine the legitimacy of the FBI, so that Trump can fire Bob Mueller.

How hard is that to understand?
