"If you cannot "make your opponent's arguments," it means you are unable to accurately understand and articulate the key points of your opponent's position, which is a significant weakness in a debate or discussion as it prevents you from effectively addressing and refuting their perspective; essentially, you are not fully engaging with their argument."
Alarming Power?
To pretend there isn’t a problem or to leave things as they are, is much more ‘alarming’
“...the real issue for progressives is whether it is being used for repression of dissent.”
Democrats only get concerned with repression of dissent when they are out of power and wanting to cause trouble.
The alarming power apparently didn’t become a problem until just now.
FEAR of BEING INVESTIGATED!
And the Democrats have been the drill instructors for this type of lawfare.
An interesting perspective from an author who I assume is an old school progressive
I make the same argument with my so-called progressive relatives and colleagues (at least the intelligent ones) - progressive/leftists have spent 80 years building bloated, ideological, self righteous Fed.gov
And yet they act surprised when it starts wars, tramples civil rights, and is found to be highly corrupt
Everyone now sees what a cesspool the FBI is. We just want it fixed! Kash has more power than any director since Hoover.
It’s the same with Trump. The dementia patient’s handlers so screwed up the world, Trump has unprecedented power concentrated in his hands (Hegseth and Rubio are perfect yes men) to fix it. What other president could have arbitrarily walked away from NATO and increase his popularity by doing so?
That’s the tremendous potential in any Big Three conferences. The very legacy minded elder statesmen of the world with the power to redefine the world holds tremendous potential.
Apparently the “alarming power” gifted to Kash Patel is more “alarming” than the corruption under Obama/Comey or Biden/Wray . . .
Translation: Dims need to lie better.
Funny, it wasn’t “alarming” 3 months ago.
The forever hard Left Nation.
38,000 well I’m sure we could use less than that number get DOGE in there to shake things up.
” height of the witch hunt in 1950”
There were plenty of witches to catch.
A bit off topic, but I’d like to see an investigation into the communist infiltration that senator Mccarthy was prosecuting in the 50s.. I’d bet there are reems of files showing he was right all along.
Thanks for posting this. We need to understand the left’s positions well enough to state them accurately. I’ve had people object to posts I’ve submitted simply because they were from a leftist publication.
Now it’s a problem. The Nation would see no problem if Harris were President. His opinion can be written off as insincere and fake.
I really loved Walking Tall.
Now that the table has turned, this extremist leftist is getting nervous that he may receive what he and his leftist buddies have been dishing out.
Schadenfreude.
