Outside the Beltway

What could go wrong?

They repeatedly said he has been found “liable for rape.” The nerve.

The cruelty isn’t the point.

The Florida governor is among several names being floated to replace Pete Hegseth.

The President-Elect is testing the guardrails early.

When the abnormal ceases to be.

Trump’s Deputy AG nominee is an promising choice

An indefensible choice.

The Congressman and Green Beret colonel will head Trump’s national security team.

Trump’s foreign policy team is taking shape.

Putting down markers for future reference.

The 45th President looks to be the 47th.

My turn.

A low confidence Election Day forecast.

Trump’s core policies will drive inflation

Each state sets its own election rules. That’s not a good thing.

Subtle demographic changes may have created a tipping point.

Bizarre conspiracy theories shared by powerful people are immune to fact checking.

Trump is significantly outpeforming his 2020 results in New York and Florida. It doesn’t matter.

Lying about hurricanes and stoking ridiculous theories about weather control are the latest examples.

Some direct evidence of the effects.

The actor known for “Good Times,” “Roots,” and “The West Wing” is gone at 84.

And the grotesqueness of the Trumpian response.

The New College of Florida invites a white supremacist to campus.

The skews may offset.

The would-be gunman was captured before he could get off a shot.

Thoughts that didn’t fit in my last post

These people are frustrating.

A microcosm of the campaigns and the candidates.

Trump on X.

Beyond politics, there’s culture.

On hacks and different treatment for Clinton and Trump.

That’s not a rhetorical question.

One of the most notorious war criminals in American history is dead at 80.

More endorsement and support for Harris.

Cruelty with compound interest.

Because I really do have too many open.

Expect an appeal and a long wait

He’s doing better in all the swing states but one than in 2020.
