2020 Democrats Wrestle With A Big Question: What Are Reparations?
Several Democratic candidates have been quick to embrace reparations recently. Bernie Sanders is more cautious.

Left Wing Mob Takes A Scalp: Conservative Writer Fired From The Atlantic
Other items have made me hold off on The Atlantic’s hiring (and now firing) of conservative Kevin D. Williamson, which set off a 8.0 Richter scale triggering from progressive circles.

The ‘Big Lie Is No Lie’ Lie
The thing about Donald Trump’s “Big Lie” is that it is: 1. big and 2. a lie. Trump has now filed a $475 million lawsuit against CNN, insisting that the news channel stop referring to his lies as “lies.”
That’s High Trumpism: lying about lying while putting your hand out and asking for money.
CNN’s lawyers can rest easy. The lawsuit (which I encourage you to read) is an

"Medicare-for-all" and free community college are just the starting point. Some candidates vying for the Democratic presidential nomination are going beyond promising gobs of government benefits and proposing a more straightforward approach -- simply giving away money.

Here Are The Billionaires Funding The Democratic Presidential Candidates
As Democratic candidates drop out of the race, more billionaires are jumping in.
