So far Chelsea Clinton hasn’t tweeted anything about McCain’s death, and really who can blame her pic.twitter.com/4wnCdkrjk3

"McCain was a good man for standing up to his party sometimes" is the closest many people in this business are allowed to come to saying "The Republican Party is A Problem" even though they know they probably should, & I feel like this might explain some of how he's been covered.

2. Bridget McCain was only 9-years-old when she was used by Karl Rove as a part of his bigoted attack against Senator McCain. Rove has yet to apologize to the McCain family for his despicable strategy. pic.twitter.com/iHoeqCwfQK

Karl Rove engineered a push poll during the 2000 South Carolina primary that asked voters if they would be less likely to vote for McCain if they knew he had an illegitimate black child. Rove knew this would be effective because the McCains adopted a little girl from Bangladesh twitter.com/karlrove/statu…

Say what you will about John McCain, I thought he did the right thing when he lost the Vietnam War.

His last official act as a public servant was declining, despite being unable to work, to resign and trigger a special election, so that his Trump-supporting governor could appoint a Trump-supporting senator who'll serve for two full years

One thing that is not John McCain’s legacy is Martin Luther King Day

I left one out. No single figure of our time has done more to dramatize the moral and intellectual bankruptcy of the Beltway media.

John McCain’s main legacy is his awful daughter and her awful racist plagiarist creep husband and the massive tax cut they’re getting on their unearned fortune.
His other legacies are the Iraq War and the Trump presidency.

So.......
When are we going to start talking about how Brett Kavanaugh is now likely to receive his 51st vote (perhaps only his 50th) from a non-elected replacement for John McCain, two months before a national election — tipping the balance of SCOTUS power for a generation?

It’s probably best for everyone that I’m at a lovely wedding and not supposed to be tweeting right now

The argument isn’t that this is so much “shoddy” journalism as “biased” journalism: biased against the left and against critics of Israel in particular. Another word for this is oppo research. And maybe Samuels et al are good at oppo research!

He also says he believes (and he’s right) that Samuels brought a particular set of biases to the story and fit Rhodes into a fundamentally unfair narrative, which Rhodes should have seen coming.

Rhodes says outright that Samuels accurately quotes him, that he’s not even mad at Samuels, and that he was dumb to agree to the profile at all. He says he let his ego get in the way of the administration’s interests.
