Sanders is being dishonest with this insistence the party has some power to ban super PACs from spending in Dem primaries and they're just refusing to use it. They don't! They can't stop people from buying ads. No such power exists. He's bashing them for not fulfilling a literally impossible demand.

Many things will take a long time to fix and some simply aren't fixable. America's international standing, for example, is never returning to the status quo ante. You can't go back to the old NATO after we elected, and then reelected, the guy who threatened to invade and annex a chunk of Denmark.

BREAKING: Trump pauses attacks on Iran, citing “perimeters of a deal” that would end Tehran’s “nuclear threat” and reopen the Strait of Hormuz.

Elon Musk’s embarrassing Economist interview and subsequent racist tantrum ought to present the media, government, investors and index funds with a simple yes-or-no question: Should huge chunks of the economy and millions of Americans’ retirement funds be tied to this man’s fortunes? (new @ms.now)

His recommendations bound nobody and were not particularly rigorously followed by the actual policymakers.

I don't see another way out. We blew up the Pax Americana and we just haven't admitted it yet.
