Choose orders Trump to offer videotaped deposition in protest lawsuit

[stag28]

"Atwood’s story feels especially relevant now. The anachronistic sexism of some of Donald Trump’s campaign performances raised the possibility of a regression to earlier mores; and the power of this series lies in its depiction of the slipperiness of the slope from bad to worse.  [..] In this adaptation the past is closer to our world, but is an era of creeping transition. [..] “Nothing changes instantaneously,” Offred observes. “In a gradually heating bathtub you’d be boiled to death before you knew it.” This series is particularly good at portraying the incredulity – the sense that it can’t happen here – that ensues as the bathwater heats up. [..] the series’ contemporary sequences concentrate on the tipping points, when we realise that something uninspected has suddenly gone much too far. The moment a policeman opens fire on a protest march. The moment armed men enter a publisher’s office and order all the women to leave. The moment you find you’re not allowed to own property any more. And reactions – particularly from the male cast – are similarly well caught. The third episode portrays the day of the coup, when Moss’s character is escorted from her workplace and returns home to find that all her property has been transferred by law to her husband. “You know I’ll take care of you,” he says. But men “taking care” of women is the very thought-pattern on which the new regime will be built. [..] “This may not seem ordinary to you right now,” says Aunt Lydia, the cattle-prod-wielding guardian and trainer to the Handmaids. “But after a time it will. This will become ordinary.”“

In theory, no one should be surprised that it was health care that opened the first big crack in the Trumptime GOP. It's been obvious

for ages

that the Republicans didn't have any kind of consensus on how to fulfill their promise of replacing the Affordable Care Act. If you put that first on the legislative agenda, of course it's where the splits are going to start showing.

Yet it still feels weird. There are issues—immigration, foreign policy—where the Republicans have clear public divisions. Health care has not traditionally been one of those topics. Like abortion, it brought the party together: Everyone could join hands and damn Obamacare. So the GOP hasn't just been fractured by something big; it's been fractured by something that seemed central to its self-identity.

The longer the spotlight lingers on health care, the stranger the ensuing debate is going to seem. Already this month we've had one prominent Republican (and Trump crony), Newsmax chief Christopher Ruddy, calling for a Medicaid expansion plan that sure sounds a lot like the public option. Now, I certainly wouldn't bet on that becoming the next big Republican proposal. (I wouldn't bet on the next big Republican proposal having much to do with health care at all.) But I won't be surprised if we see that idea or others like it getting more traction within the party. A sizable chunk of the base is already open to such notions. (In a Gallup poll last May, 41 percent of Republicans said they'd favor replacing the Affordable Care Act with a federally funded system.) There are ways to frame the proposal that might make it seem like less of an odd fit with the party's pro-market rhetoric. (Ruddy's column takes care to point out that the status quo isn't a free market. He's right about that, though his solution isn't exactly a free market either.) And it's not as though the party has never embraced a health entitlement before. The last Republican president gave us Medicare Part D, and the last Republican presidential nominee accused Obama of cutting Medicare.

There will also be a lot of Republicans who hate the idea, of course. But my point here isn't that I think the GOP is about to move to the left of Obama on health policy. It's that the continents are drifting, and you really don't know where everyone will be standing in a few years. Washington may be dominated by one political party right now, but there's a bunch of parties within that party and we're just starting to see the battles between them.

Life During Trumptime: Latest Version

LIFE DURING TRUMPTIME, like Walt Whitman’s LEAVES OF GRASS, requires occasional revision and updating.

 this ain't no party

this ain't no Chili's

this ain't no fooling around

no more media elites and celebrity effetes

we don't have time for that now

 we dress like cowboys

we dress like churchgoers

we all stand up and vote

we do not worry about plagiarism and lies

or being influenced by Russian spies

it’s all the media’s fault

 this ain’t no establishment party

this ain’t no health care welfare state

this ain’t no place for clean green energy

this ain’t no NEA or PBS

we don’t have time for that now

 don't want democracy

don't want free public college

just wanna open carry our guns

don't like working more for less

it just makes us stressed

yelling at those who protest us

 take us back Donald

carry us back to old America

make it okay to be bigoted again

don't wanna worry

about political correctness

sensitivity is a sin

 gonna get ready

gonna get ready

gonna get ready to stay in

down with progressives

up with regressives

Washington is ours once again!
