The beltway media insists "Liberals love Liz Cheney now"? No, we don't.

No rebranding for the Republican Party, though we know they'll try.  As predicted, Republicans have started calling themselves independents.  And Driftglass slams an ad claiming to be about American manufacturing, but it's really propaganda for some of the worst people on the Internet.

Where a LOT of people are this week: overjoyed... and grieving. Hopeful... and exhausted. Relieved... and deeply traumatized. Because it feels like we can finally peek over the lip of the foxhole and there’s not a terrifying monster firing back at us. But remembering that fascism never sleeps, and the next battle is coming.

Republicans want to fight about Dr. Seuss, while Democrats fight (among themselves? really?) about a $15 minimum wage. Never Trumpers, meanwhile, are obsessed with their ancestors and forget once again all about the Obama Administration. Blue Gal shares a book she's reading, and Driftglass wonders about writing one.

Marjorie "Traitor" Greene uses all the words Republicans have always used to get out of accountability for their actions. The week in media with only a smidgen of David Brooks and Matthew Dowd. Driftglass is still banned on Twitter, and Republicans have two skills:  inventing dumb grievances and traumatizing women. And we have to say, the Democratic Party of today reminds us of Republica...

We noticed this week that yes, some in the media ACTUALLY remember the past before 2016! Like, how totally racist the Tea Party rallies were! And we are only going to mention the never Trumper white guys when we do so in the context of Democrats, activist women and women of color. Because it's time to point out that WE EXIST, too.
