hi there, everyone. it s 4:00 in new york. whatever the results of next tuesday s midterm elections, there is no denying that these midterm elections are taking place with the very real specter of political violence and the prevalence of disinformation as a political weapon, unmatched in modern political times. large swaths of the gop have been swallowed up completely by the disinformation about the integrity of our very election systems, and many on the right have normalized conversations around political violence to the point in which polls show it is accepted by many as a useful tool to achieving the right s political aims. now, this says all sorts of things about the weakness of our democracy right now. more importantly, it says a whole lot of things about the weakness of the gop as a governing party. now, a party interested in governing would be desperate to debate policy and have those debates and win those debates ridded in data and a shared set of facts. there s none
