Yes, the DSA has a communist problem

Sometimes a red scare isn't such a bad thing. Over the last several weeks, President Trump has issued forth with five-alarm-fire warnings about the Democratic Socialists of America really being communists, and his opponents have blasted him for the worst sort of McCarthyism. Trump's rhetoric has been blunderbuss-like and over the top, but the DSA does have a communist problem.

Ogres on Pikes: Americans embrace the politics of decapitation

Anyone looking for an actual liar about COVID-19 shouldn't be eyeing Dr. Anthony Fauci, the infectious disease expert who spent 50 years protecting the public health and earning every accolade he got. If Republicans wanted to highlight bona fide lying about COVID, the guy they'd haul in for ...
