I just binged Meltdown. It was everything I thought it could be when I envisioned Alex Gibney working with Matt Taibbi and David Dayen and Thomas Frank years ago Will Dana Gut-wrenching would be an understatement. But then it occurred to me Paul Pelletier they did us all a solid!

Urban Carmel @Tepper_Jonathan Meanwhile, the Democratic Party has abandoned the working class and become party of the elite coastal clerisy. As Thomas Frank asks in the subtitle of Listen Liberal, “What Ever Happened to the Party of the People?” The VA election should be a wake-up call.

De livre en livre depuis plus de 15 ans, Thomas Frank fait le portrait, en positif et en négatif, du glorieux héritage populiste des classes laborieuses et des classes moyennes diplômées qui leur ont succédé dans le cœur triste des partis « de gauche » => agone.org/auteurs/thomas…

Pity the Billionaire by Thomas Frank. Good quick read. PLEASE GOD get the audiobook read by the author because it might be one of the most entertaining 5 hours you'll have this year. Also he basically lines up the coming Trump era like some kind of Cassandra.

As per Thomas Frank in The Guardian: "If it does indeed turn out that the lab-leak hypothesis is the right explanation for how it began—that the common people of the world have been forced into a real-life lab experiment, at tremendous cost—there is a moral earthquake on the way".
