Dear Reader,
“The Most Important Election of Our Lives.” That's my new column, and you hear it every time, but this year really is the most important contest in decades (or at least since 2016). Truth and accountability are on the ballot, and since that's the driving force for all of us at MoJo, I am going to make an ask: Will you pitch in $5 a month to support our kick-ass and uncompromising journalism today?
From Rep. John Fleming (R–La.), calmly discussing his national security differences with the commander-in-chief:
Simply put, President Obama is disadvantaging the United States one step at a time and undermining this country’s national defense on purpose.
Italics his. Steve Benen calls this a “casual accusation of treason.” Gotta disagree, though. There doesn’t seem anything casual about it.
