Dasvidaniya, Trumpites.

That From Russia With Love arrest video is starting to seem like a pre-documentary.

Speaking of new media, I’m going to raise an OT matter that seems important but hasn’t been covered by TPM:

Senator Markey (D) has a bill to save net neutrality. He needs 30 cosponsors to force a vote on the Senate floor. He currently only has 29. That means that 20 Democratic senators have not yet signed up.

Can anyone explain why Markey hasn’t simply got 49 signatures in double-quick time? I know that Democratic congress critters couldn’t win a hand of poker if they were dealt 4 aces, but this is simply mind-boggling.

I mean, who among us hasn’t emailed back and forth with senior leadership of Russian social media?

Was that wrong? Should I not have done that? I tell you, I gotta plead ignorance on this thing, because if anyone had said anything to me at all when I first started here that that sort of thing is frowned upon… you know, cause I’ve worked in a lot of political campaigns, and I tell you, people do that all the time.
