        These as-sholes again.

        The Trump administration has announced that Border Patrol official Rodney Scott will be named the agency’s new chief, following the retirement of Carla Provost at the end of this month after more than two decades there. Provost, you may all remember, was exposed last year as having been a member of a violent and racist Facebook group that mocked the deaths of kids in her agency’s custody. Now with her leaving, the administration is probably just glad to no longer get bugged about that anymore, right?

        Except, as it turns out, Provost’s successor was also in this group.

              So, under the Alan Dershowitz theory of impeachment a President could get elected and play golf every single day (basically not do the job at all) and he/she could not be impeached for it. Cause not doing your job isn't a crime.

                According to Alan Dershowitz, having a (D) after your name is the sole necessary and sufficient reason for impeachment.

                    This is a long but great piece. I don't necessarily agree with everything but it is thought-provoking. It's not that new (5/19) but I just discovered it.

                    The Scottish philosopher Alasdair MacIntyre once wrote that there is something logical in the repeated rediscovery of Nietzsche and his superman theory. Whenever the capitalist order comes under stress and the rule of the elite is challenged, the ordinary morality that rich people profess is called into question. Repression, deviousness, lies, and even murder become the order of the day. At these critical moments, the ordinary, boring bureaucrats discover that their norms and morals were just a jumble of old rules without any logical underpinning. Because of this, wrote MacIntyre, “it is possible to predict with confidence that in the apparently quite unlikely contexts of bureaucratically managed modern societies there will periodically emerge social movements informed by just that kind of prophetic irrationalism of which Nietzsche’s thought is the ancestor.”

                    That is exactly what we are living through now, and Arendt’s thought cannot explain it—because she refused to understand fascism as the elite’s response to the possibility of working-class power, or to understand the essential role of irrationalism in all such reactionary movements, and because hers was a philosophy based on American exceptionalist assumptions of immunity to totalitarian impulses. This is sadly disproved.
