Every time someone points out that Trumpistan feels like 1930s Germany, something like today's court ruling comes along. In this case, Jim Acosta was ordered reinstated to the White House Press Pool by a judge appointed by Donald Trump himself.
Yes, Lou Dobbs' dessicated corpse was on Faux News blathering about illegal aliens voting for Democrats. It combines contempt for democratic norms with contempt for Democrats with Goebbel's "Big Lie." But the Fox-o-Sphere is increasingly insular. It reaches too many people, yet not enough to constitute a majority of Americans. There is "a" fascist America, but America is not fascist.
It's Friday, so we remain interested in when Mueller will drop some indictments. With Kingpin Whitaker in charge of DOJ, Mueller might be biding his time until Democrats get control of the House and there is an AG who isn't a complete Trumpian tool. Still, one can hope that we will at least see Roger Stone's perp walk before too long.
