In our roundup of the craziness of week we go over the political scandals shaking up Washington. We talk about the latest sexual harassment scandals from Al Franken to the mounting evidence against Roy Moore. We discuss all the different testimony against Moore and how Republicans are mostly sticking behind him. We talk about his chances and focus on Trump’s support for Roy Moore in contrast to his continued tirade against people of color, this time Lavar Ball. We examine how Trump varies his response and what insight this gives us into his followers. We then talk about the great idiot of 2017, Cater Page, and our ongoing fascination with this repeated unforced incriminating admissions. Finally we conclude with a long discussion about net neutrality and the dangers of the shrinking public space of the internet.
