  • "They're Eating the Pets": The Lie Was Dead Before He Told It. The Bomb Threats Came Anyway.

    On the night of September 10, in front of the largest audience either candidate will address all year (more than 67 million people), the Republican nominee for President of the United States said this about the legal Haitian residents of Springfield, Ohio: "In Springfield, they're eating the dogs. The people that came in. They're eating the cats. They're eating the pets of the people that live there." Moderator David Muir corrected him in the room, …

  • "Poisoning the Blood of Our Country": The Frontrunner Skips the Euphemism

    In Durham, New Hampshire on Saturday, the Republican frontrunner said immigrants are "poisoning the blood of our country." Historians identified the phrase within the hour, because it is not a common English idiom, and the most famous prior user devoted a chapter of his book to it. Three days earlier, a candidate on the same primary stage had called the Great Replacement "a basic statement of the Democratic Party's platform." The party has stopped needing …

  • The Confederate Flag Entered the Capitol Today. Four Years of Civil War Never Managed It.

    Filed near midnight, January 6. A mob broke into the Capitol today to stop the counting of electoral votes. This page is not going to pretend the story is election law. The crowd built a gallows on the Hill, flew the Confederate battle flag at the base of the Grant Memorial, carried it through the halls inside (something four years of Confederate arms never accomplished), and chased a lone Black officer up a staircase. Congress …

  • "Go Back": Three of Them Were Born Here, and the House Put the Word "Racist" in the Record

    On Sunday morning, the President of the United States looked at four Democratic congresswomen (Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez of New York, Ilhan Omar of Minnesota, Ayanna Pressley of Massachusetts and Rashida Tlaib of Michigan) and tweeted that these "'Progressive' Democrat Congresswomen, who originally came from countries whose governments are a complete and total catastrophe," should: "...go back and help fix the totally broken and crime infested places from which they came." A brief geography lesson for the …

  • "Why Do We Need More Haitians?": The President Grades the World's Countries by Toilet

    On Thursday, senators brought the President a bipartisan immigration deal covering, among others, people from Haiti, El Salvador and several African nations under Temporary Protected Status. The President of the United States, in the Oval Office, in front of members of Congress, asked: "Why are we having all these people from shithole countries come here?" He then suggested the United States should instead take more immigrants from countries like Norway, whose prime minister he had …

  • "Very Fine People": The President Reviews a Nazi March and Finds It Mixed

    On Friday night, several hundred white nationalists marched through the University of Virginia's campus carrying tiki torches and chanting "Jews will not replace us" and "blood and soil," which is a Nazi slogan, translated for convenience. This was the warm-up act for Saturday's Unite the Right rally, the largest open gathering of white supremacists in America in decades: Klansmen, neo-Nazis, and the freshly rebranded "alt-right," together at last, in matching polos. On Saturday, one of …

  • Republicans are doomed: How the GOP’s cynical election strategy is imploding

    As Donald Trump enmeshed himself in a bitter fight with the parents of an American Muslim military hero -- and Paul Ryan, Mitch McConnell and John McCain looked to put distance between themselves and their party’s presidential nominee -- there’s actually worse news for Republicans. Several important court victories for voting rights since Friday could dramatically remake the campaign for Congress and the White House, and this time, GOP leadership may have a harder time …

  • ALTERNET: Donald Trump and the GOP's Demise
