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.

Oh. What A Surprise.

Turns out the FBI isn't running crooked investigations against Trump.

The problem, of course, with conspiracy theories is that their very absurdity is their armor. Once you commit to an evidence-free conspiracy theory, actual evidence against it is simply more evidence of how deep the conspiracy goes.

This won't reach the Deplorables, but hopefully it will at least reach enough of the news media that they will be more wary about repeating any nonsense talking points from the GOP.

Hahahahaha, who am I kidding, of course they'll keep doing that.
