Are They Insane, or Just Lying?   Nancy Pelosi took a break from shirking her responsibility to hold a lawless president accountable before he destroys what's left of the institutions undergirding the American republic to drag some members of her own caucus this past weekend. As my colleague Charles P. Pierce has detailed, Pelosi dismissed four rising stars in her caucus—Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, Ilhan Omar, Rashida Tlaib, and Ayanna Pressley—as "these people" who "have their public whatever and their Twitter world, but they didn't have any following.
