Ezra Klein on how Republicans who once said debt would destroy America have now endorsed taking on more debt than anyone ever imagined. They're rationalizing it with this weird theory that this will supercharge the economy but very few of them seem to actually believe it and as Klein notes, "there is not a single economic analysis that agrees."
And by "not a single economic analysis," he means not a single economic analysis.
And as Jonathan Chait notes, no matter what happens, Republicans (and Trump especially) will declare the results a huge success and insist we should do more of it. Some are still trying to claim that "the great experiment" in Kansas was a smashing success.

Matt Taibbi on what Trump is trying to do to the whole concept of the government trying to protect consumers from getting ripped-off by unscrupulous profiteers. This might be a good time for us all to become unscrupulous profiteers.

But, as usual, the greatest injustice in the world today is Hillary Clinton's e-mails. Some things never change.
