Thank you Rachel.

I am going to take a little pat on the back. On the Dublin incident, I ran into a right leaning site, supporting the "protesters". I pointed out the destroying buses and businesses was rioting not protesting. I pointed out that destroying your own town was dumb and didn't save or help a single child. My have fallen on deaf ears, but I engaged.

I am not replying directly to @forrest because I think he or it is trolling. Phrases like "real issues" the idea that this show or station "loves Trump" are the giveaways because it is ludicrous. (*BTW Trump's real estate fraud and the legal - ish market selling to landlords who won't rent unless their price is met -- *and that of everyone enough like him) is an important reason why the cost of Housing keeps going up in my area at least.

Heroes come from every angle. Being born and live in Belfast, Northern Ireland. I have lived through the terrorist attacks ( The Troubles) and have seen heroes come out from the woodwork, people from both sides of the community helping out regardless of who caused it. I got caught up in the Shankill road bombing on my way to work, and because my mum was the the community worker in the Methodist church right next door, she got involved. Both my mother and I saw things I could never ever relate to my own son.

I literally left the GOP in 2017. they have lost their frikkin minds

[@jamesratliff5164]

The GOP has always been the enemy of America. History proves it. In the history of our country, The United States of America. Each time we let too many republikkklans have a seat in government, the economy just gets destroyed by their stupid ideas. The GOP is the worst enemy the American people have ever had. Between the Republican Great Depression of 1929-1937 and Reagan's inauguration in 1981, the United States experienced a few recessions, but nothing as severe as Republican President Herbert Hoover oversaw back on Black Tuesday, October 29, 1929. Hoover's crash was set up by the election of 1920, when Republican Warren Harding convinced Americans to abandon the trust-busting, high tax, progressive policies of Presidents Teddy Roosevelt, William Howard Taft, and Woodrow Wilson in favor of that generation's version of neoliberalism or what we today call Reaganomics. Harding referred to it as "Horse and Sparrow Economics" - it was the early 20th century version of what Reagan later reinvented as "trickle-down economics." If the horses (rich people and big business) were fed more oats (through deregulation and tax cuts), more of those oats would pass undigested into the horse manure that then littered the streets of American. The sparrows (working class Americans) could then pick the extra oats out of the manure. In 1920, Warren Harding won the presidency on a campaign of "more industry in government, less government in industry" - privatize and deregulate - and "a return to normality," his promise to drop the top tax bracket from its then-91 percent rate down to 25 percent. Harding kept both promises, putting the nation into a sugar-high spin called the Roaring '20s, where the rich got fabulously rich and working-class people were being beaten and murdered by industrialists when they tried to unionize. Harding, Coolidge, and Hoover (the three Republican presidents from 1920 to 1932) all cheered on the assaults, using phrases like "the right to work" to describe a union-free nation. In the end, the result of the "horses and sparrows" economics advocated by Harding was the Republican Great Depression (yes, they called it that until after World War II). FDR's response to Hoover's Depression was to raise the top income tax bracket back up to 91% and impose stiff regulations on banks and Wall Street, creating the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) and putting Joe Kennedy in charge of it. Gloria Swanson, who knew Kennedy well and intensely disliked him (he'd robbed and exploited her), told me over one of our many dinners in her New York apartment that FDR knew, "It takes a crook to catch a crook." And FDR was going after the crooks. High taxes on the morbidly rich and aggressive government enforcement of banking and securities rules prevented another large-scale crash for a half century until Reagan came all High on oil and repeated Harding's mistakes in the 1980s. After Reagan finally dropped the top tax rate from the 74% he inherited when he came into office to 28% there was a one-day 22% stock market crash - Black Monday on October 27, 1987 - that rivaled 1929's Black Tuesday for the first time. When Reagan deregulated the Savings & Loan industry the banksters stole so much money they crashed S&Ls across America, the first serious bank panic since the Republican Great Depression. We're still living in Reagan's neoliberal deregulated economy. It brought us two financial crises while he was President, the dot-com bubble-bust of 1999/2000, the Bush Crash of 2008, and arguably the 7.8 trillion-dollar-heist of 2020 when Trump passed out money to his fat-cat buddies without controls (we're still trying to figure out where all that money went). Now, if Dimon is right, hang onto your hat for another "event." The core tenant of both Harding's and Reagan's versions of neoliberalism is that the economy is essentially a force of nature. It's why Harding did away with regulations on stock speculation and why Reagan deregulated everything he could as fast as he could. The economy "operates according to its own rules," they'd tell you, and anything government does to interfere with it will simply produce a bad outcome. In actual fact, the opposite is true. Players in the top reaches of finance, banking, and speculation are much like players in boxing or football: they're engaged in a competitive high-stakes game defined by very specific rules, and when they know they can get away with breaking those rules, they'll often do it. The difference is that instead of winning or throwing a football game or boxing match, when bankers and speculators violate the rules they can take down the entire economy. The financial speculators, of course are rarely injured in the process. We bailed out the banksters and speculators in the 1980s, 1999/2000, 2008, and 2020 to the tune of trillions of dollars. Senior executives and shareholders took home hundreds of billions of those dollars, looting the system they themselves had crashed. Since 2008, most of that money was created out of thin air by the Fed. Now the Fed wants it back, but the banksters and speculators have already stashed it in their offshore tax havens. As a result, working class Americans and small- and medium-sized businesses will largely foot the bill. Dimon and the purveyors of doom may be wrong about a crisis at this particular moment, but the system is still shaky and fraud is rife across banking, brokerage and finance, as Elizabeth Warren and Katie Porter continually remind us. As in The Hidden History of Neoliberalism: How Reaganism Gutted America, it's probably going to take another 1929-type event to shake Americans up enough to reject Reagan's vision of a deregulated economy and put the nation back on the course of the stable and steady Keynesian growth that FDR gave us from 1933 to 1981. Now, in addition to an economy held together with the baling-wire of Fed stimulus (that's coming to an end), both the US and the world are facing a wild spectrum of assaults that could have huge economic impacts. And Republicans are committed to doing everything they can to cripple our economy, refusing to pass much of Biden's economic agenda, in their belief that a Crash will help them in the 2022 and 2024 elections.

Bravo to Clark Cunningham, Georgia State University Professor of Law, for his keen insights regarding the failed attempt of the Georgia Republican State Legislature to keep a law which would enable them to oust Georgia Prosecutors on a political whim. Bravo to the Georgia Supreme Court!

Complacency is not a civic duty. Your civic duty entails action, speaking up for the right thing to be done because it is the right thing. Too many of our citizens are hiding their heads in the sand, because1) I want no part of it., 2) I'm only one person, what can I do? 3) It's just easier to pretend I don't see or hear what is going on. You get it, the list goes on and on because, well it's not my job to police society. No we can leave that to who? Not Trump, he is responsible for bring it to a rolling boil.

[@christophertoyne8857]

So why did the “expert” lawyer from Georgia say, “UNFORTUNATELY” their speaker went about it in the wrong way. He is obviously partisan and therefore NOT an expert.

Maddow's appropriately sarcastic closing comment at 19:44 ("Other than that though, things are looking good.") reminded me of the joke about a reporter asking "Other than that Mrs Lincoln, how was the opera?"

I am a resident of Dublin, and what happened in the City of Dublin last Thursday night was that an ugly, tiny mob of thugs and far right activists used a tragic and brutal attack on innocent children as an excuse to riot, to burn and loot property and to attack the Gardai. (Irish Police). The man who attacked the children was an Irish Naturalized Citizen, living here in Ireland for 20 years, and who was receiving treatment for severe mental health issues. The far right in Ireland used this awful tragedy as an opportunity to riot and burn Dublin City Centre. Despite the claims of the National Party, and their International Right Wing liars, they are not representative of the the vast majority of decent Irish people, and they never ever will. Irish Citizens respect our laws, laws that were made by a government which was elected fairly, freely and democratically by a majority of the Irish people themselves. This is how our democracy works. The far right respect nothing but their vile racist hatred.

A class based law system is our current (unspoken) system, to make any public law that codified that system would just be "too" unconstitutional.

In the Netherlands we count all elections by hand. In the last election we had to choose between 26 parties, and within a party, you can choose among its list of candidates. The election form is the size of a newspaper. But all counting was basically finished on the next morning, with only the exact winning candidates still having to be determined. Hand counting can work. But it also takes some trust in local people doing that work.

[@susan3037]

Didn’t Netherlands just vote in a right wing candidate as its leader?

[@chezmoi42]

@susan3037 Yes, they got their version of Trump back.

[@salventi5665]

Netherlands is a bit larger than New Jersey with about a population of about 14 million. The United States is quite a bit larger with a population of over 330 million. You're comparing apples to Range Rovers.

We need to adhere to norms when it comes to a lot of this traditionally constitutional and institutional functioning. When one side takes advantage, another side will do the same when they are in power. We have to be really careful what we allow for.
