Outside the Beltway

Is it time for the Democrats to move to the center?

Keeping a running list of examples of the dishonesty, unreality, poor governance, and authoritarianism of the Trump administration.

It was rather unusual.

More from the annals of unrealty.

Or does it?

Budgets are choices and choices reveal values.

Is the worst of the idiocy over?

Another example.

One piece of a larger puzzle.

This time: the Social Security Administration.

He is either too dishonest or too stupid to hold the office (or, you know, both).

The GOP budget bill.

That’s a problem, given her job and all.

Some images from the White House Flickr pages that caught my eye.

Zeke Emanuel minced no words.

Check yourself before you wreck yourself.

Trump’s weird rhetoric on trade.

On renaming commemorations.

A case from rural Alabama.

A major reshuffling of the foreign policy team 100 days into the administration.

A basic definition.

Gee, I wonder why?

A reminder.

The country is not happy with Trump. Except for Republicans.

Even Republicans are balking at some Trump policies.

Apparently, this is who we are now.

The polls are showing a really weird dynamic.
