CNN anchor Jake Tapper laughed and shook his head on Sunday morning when White House economic adviser Larry Kudlow insisted that the United States is “learning to deal” with the novel coronavirus in a “safe” way, noting that virus infections have been surging across the country. Appearing on Sunday’s State of the Union to discuss the Trump administration’s attempt to restart stimulus deal talks after President Donald Trump announced last week that he was killing negotiations, Kudlow tried to thread a needle by saying the economy had already rebounded sharply but that additional stimulus was still needed. “It’s a question of […]
Maryland’s Republican Governor Larry Hogan has fired an employee for supporting Kyle Rittenhouse on social media. Rittenhouse, of course, if the teenager who shot rioters that were attacking him in Kenosha, where he worked as a lifeguard. On Saturday, Governor Hogan’s office announced the termination of Arthur “Mac” Love IV. Since 2015, he was the deputy director of the Governor’s Office of Community Initiatives, which oversees the state’s ethnic and cultural commissions, community service programs and religious outreach. The Baltimore Sun reports that “Love has posted memes showing support for Kyle Rittenhouse, a 17-year-old from Illinois who is charged with fatally […]

Ohio House Speaker Larry Householder is among five local political insiders reportedly arrested Tuesday in connection with a $60 million bribery scheme related to the state’s new nuclear bailout law. According to several media reports, FBI agents and local authorities stormed Householder’s Glenford farm on Tuesday morning. Four other men were reportedly arrested alongside Householder, who has led the Republican-controlled Ohio House since last January: Neil Clark, a lobbyist and founder of Grant Street Consultants; former Ohio Republican Party chair Matthew Borges; Juan Cespedes, co-founder of The Oxley Group in Columbus; and one of Householder’s advisers, Jeffrey Longstreth. A spokesperson for […]
There’s a joke that Richard Kind likes to tell about himself. It goes like this. The executive in charge of actor contracts comes home one night and asks his wife, “You know that guy who you like so much? He was on Mad About You and then you liked him on Spin City, and then he was on Curb Your Enthusiasm?” The man’s wife says, “Oh, I love him.” “Yeah. I really fucked him over today,” the man responds. Few character actors work harder or more consistently than Kind. He had major regular roles on the sitcoms Mad About You and […]

Former U.S. Treasury Secretary Lawrence Summers praised stablecoins, but said he would be surprised if a global digital currency became a reality in his lifetime. During a special episode of Circle co-founder and CEO Jeremy Allaire’s podcast, “The Money Movement” last week, Summers said he foresees more innovation in the blockchain space but a global digital currency is still at a nascent stage. The comments came as part of a broader discussion on the current state of the global economy, the future of a global digital currency and the role of stablecoins in cross-border transactions. “I’m sure there’ll be a variety […]

Larry Kramer, the late LGBTQ and AIDS activist, author and playwright, has been much praised and analyzed over the last 24 hours. But Larry Kramer was also both a friend and professional collaborator to many. Lost amid the tales of fire and brimstone are stories of a certain paisley pocket, an unexpected delivery of chicken soup, and the linking of arms late at night on a Broadway street. On Wednesday, in my obituary of Kramer, who died Wednesday at the age of 84, I mulled what people invariably mention most about Kramer: his anger. That anger, as I wrote, could be […]

Even if you worked in the intelligence community at some point in your life you might not understand it. So let me help you understand how astounding and damning the documents are that were declassified by DNI Grenell and released by Senators Johnson (no relation) and Grassley today. Here is a section from the testimony to HPSCI (i.e., House Intel Committee) of an unnamed FBI Agent. Let’s assume that this was a report that […]
White House economic adviser Larry Kudlow attempted to strike an optimistic tone on April’s historically bad unemployment numbers on Sunday, insisting that there was a “glimmer of hope” in the report showing over 20 million jobs lost and the unemployment rate surging to nearly 15 percent. Asked on ABC’s This Week to react to President Donald Trump’s recent promise that “all” of the jobs will quickly come back, Kudlow said that he didn’t “want to sugarcoat” the devastating economic situation amid the ongoing coronavirus pandemic—before going on and sugarcoating it. “Inside the numbers there’s a glimmer of hope,” Kudlow said. “We […]
