Mike, Thank you for the short history of Dick Cheney. How could we forget? The waterboarding was so egregious that we chose to put it out of sight. The withdrawal from Afghanistan was a turning point in American foreign policy, but what is going on behind the scenes? Please keep us up to date!
Mike, Cheney, together with Bennie Thompson of Mississippi, led the greatest exposure the country has seen against Trump's attempted coup. It costs her her seat in Congress. During the proceedings that day, her Dad helped her with personal armed security against the fascists, which she needed. She is everything you say she is, with one exception. She defends the Constitution against fascists, and is organized all she can to vote Kamala to defeat them in Nov. Would you repudiate her effort? If so, we have very different ideas about the strategy and tactics. You can denounce her conservation, warmongering politics til the cows come home. But do you share her assessment of Trump as a clear and present danger? At the moment, we have a broad front under the Dem tent, from Chomsky to Cheney. We don't have to shut up about anyone in it. We exercise our independence and initiative. I'm surprised I even have to argue this point with you.
Not quite true on Noam. He usually says he'll vote Dem in the end, even while maintain his anarchism. I recommend Liz Cheney's book, but you can read my review of it on Substack. But you're in an odd spot. Urging a few GOP notables not to oppose Trump effectively.
I am not advising “GOP” notables on how to vote, Carl. Nor am I interested in reading Liz or Dick Cheney’s books. I’m more involved in getting Democrats not to behave like them — especially around support for Israel, torture, union busting, and war, so that the Dem base of young swing state voters can turn out and vote in good conscience. Not an odd spot for me at all. Been there since the 60’s.

Stop it Carl. You're making Dick Cheney blush.
And please don't use Chomsky's name in vain. He's never been a "big Democrat tent" guy.
