I know David Brooks isn't popular on DU, but this column....

...expresses my hopes almost exactly. Especially the Biden president, Warren-with-a-mandate-to-take-on-big-tech. And the rise of intellectual religion. Well, then, there's the total collapse of the Republican party. That's good. I'm afraid David Brooks is going to get fired from his posts as conservative representative at the NYT and PBS Newshour.

He WON'T be fired, imo.

It's FRIDAY, so he may appear on PBS NewsHour, along with Mark Shields.

..you know like Pink Floyd did in Careful with that Ax Eugene... a sweet melody that lulled us into sweet sensations of sleepiness and floating on clouds.... then BOOM..the angry reality takes over.
