Faster Pander More

I'm blaming a two month lockdown for making everyone crazy.

The Minneapolis Student City Council will disband the police. Not cray-cray, by the way - Camden NJ disbanded the city police force and ended the union. Hired back a lot of the old cops and more young ones, doubling the size of the force while cutting payroll. A few years later the police voted to re-unionize. Camden has been handling the recent protests successfully. Keep hope alive!

Meanwhile, in another wing of the asylum insurgents have overrun the NY Times editors office. Editorial Page editor James Bennet will be leaving to spend more time with his book deal, or something. Times coverage notes his earlier mis-steps at the Times. This will warm hearts here:

Mr. Bennet’s tenure as editorial page editor, which started in 2016, was marked by several missteps. Last spring, The Times apologized for an anti-Semitic cartoon that appeared in the Opinion pages of its international edition.

Last August, a federal appellate court found that Sarah Palin, the former vice-presidential candidate, could proceed with a defamation lawsuit against The Times over an editorial edited by Mr. Bennet that inaccurately linked her statements to the 2011 shooting of a congresswoman.

Ben Smith, now of the Times, reports on other Newsrooms Burning. This paragraph is an instant classic, my emphasis:

But the shift in mainstream American media — driven by a journalism that is more personal, and reporters more willing to speak what they see as the truth without worrying about alienating conservatives — now feels irreversible. It is driven in equal parts by politics, the culture and journalism’s business model, relying increasingly on passionate readers willing to pay for content rather than skittish advertisers.

Alienating progressives remains a critical worry.

That media dynamic - the hunt for clicks and likes from engaged partisans - got a lot of attention during the Covington HS meltdown.

MM, I don’t know what happened to Mitt. Back in the day he seemed a decent man. He’s gone full commie, as many say here. My brother thinks that people who lose the Presidential election lose their minds. Seems to be the case. McCain, Romney, Clinton (although she was out of her mind way before).

Well in that case, the NYT's sleepless nights will never end.

Good.

I guess Bob Dole is the exception that proves the rule. Fullthroated Trump supporter since 2016 IIRC.

The barriers being erected to my organization reopening are infuriating. Especially here in Austin where more and more businesses are reopening by the day.

The decisions are being made by people who listen to NPR all day long and are convinced that a second wave is going to hit. They're clearly actively hoping for it (because they think it will help them in the election, I guess).

If grocery stores can be open, libraries can be open. Especially a huge library like ours. It's pathetic.

[Narciso]

Hey beasts how have you been.

[Pinandpuller]

Blacks didn’t build America.

White Functional Alcoholics built America.

[Porchlight]

This morning for the first time at our small church, we had a security guard patrolling. I'm scrolled off the vestry so I had no idea. It was reassuring on one level, but I had to wonder if we'd had any specific threats. We are one of the most openly conservative congregations in town.

[Porchlight]

Hi Beasts! I don't know why I always forget he played on that track.

[BeastsEngland]

Doing well, y’all - getting back to a bit of normalcy...

Yes, Porch - I’m not a big Clapton fan, but that’s a monumentally exquisite guitar track.

Back to radio silence. Hugs and kisses. :)

Woah! Bob Dole is still alive!? I had no idea. I asked hubby and he thought he was deceased. Huh. That’s great if he supports Trump.

As you can see, I am no good at staying away from politics.

[MissMarple2]

So that you can see how things are going in the mm

Yes, ccgirl, Dole really came through. Like many Repubs, he was skeptical at first (I think he initially supported Rubio). But after they spent some time together leading up to the RNC he came out strong.

Hubby has on old nfl tv. He has run a family and friends pool for the last 25 years. He says he will not this year. He’s so disappointed in the nfl. It was such a fun way to keep up with great friends and and family. Why, why is this happening!? It’s so sad.

[Porchlight]

1 Minneapolis disbanding their police force.

Can this be real? I mean truly, what does it actually mean? They're all fired? Surely the union will have something to say about that.

Anyway, congratulations Trump on turning MN red without having to spend any money.

Porch, I need to go to bed soon. I appreciate your posts. I commented earlier that I don’t understand any of these “rules.” My two daughters I love and respect, but I think they think I am crazy. I think they may eventually hear what I am saying. My son is full on board that this is nuts. I just keep telling my daughters my thoughts, so that maybe it will sink In, when they see the true reality.

[Narciso]

Porch already mentioned Dole, but I think the rule is actually *Democrats* who lose the Presidential lose their minds. McCain and Romney didn't lose their minds, they just stopped pretending to be conservative. I was never a big fan of GHWB, but he seemed to handle defeat pretty well.

The funny thing about the washing of feet if you're not a biblical illiterate is Jesus, the Creator of the universe, deigned to wash the feet of his lowly disciples as a demonstration that even the most revered among us should be willing to serve the lowest.

[Ignatz Ratzkiwatzki]

We had our first in situ church service today since March and it was pretty sparse. Lots of geezers stayed home. People sat a few seats apart but pretty much nobody social distanced and pretty much everyone shook hands and a very small percentage of people had masks.

“The funny thing about the washing of feet”

It’s only one step away from kissing the boots.

A few videos have made the rounds again of whites, on command, kissing the boots of black men. I’m perfectly positioned to believe those were produced videos, but the messaging is clear.
