I just ordered Kurt Anderson's new book

[malaise]

Evil Geniuses: The Unmaking of America: A Recent History.

He exposes all the Friedman neo-liberal fans. The doctrine that profits are all that matters fuckery is about to be banished to the dustbin of history.

1. I just caught

The tail end of it. He did not spare anyone.

I heard him mention the Elaine Chao investigation. So much grift it is impossible to keep up. Reopen this one. Would Doug Jones be a good Assistant AG?

2. Progressive radio.

A number of progressive radio hosts, specifically Thom Hartman, have been discussing this exact information for years. Not anything new if you have been listening to progressive , liberal radio.

3. That said, however, the more people who know and learn, the better.

5. I knew it but

Hearing it again on Joe this morning brought it back. Wonder if the case can be reopened?

4. Thanks, I have listened to Thom

In the past. I really enjoyed Bill Press when he was on Current, then Gore sold it. That is where I first watched Ali Velshi. He is a treasure.

6. Friedman came up with New Green Deal.

So what?

10. Milton Friedman did?

Came up with the New Green Deal? Or New Deal? I wasn't aware of that.

7. I highly recommend his last book, Fantasyland- it really helps make sense of today's QAnonsense

America has always had a flexible relationship with the truth and with reality, and Fantasyland gives a thorough examination of it.
