"Anti-woke" darling Richard Hanania is exposed: What this says about the "intellectual" right Amanda Marcotte: Under his real name, Richard Hanania runs a think tank called the Center for the Study of Partisanship and Ideology, has a spot as a visiting scholar at the University of Texas, and was published in the New York Times and Washington Post. But Hanania also had a robust secret career as "Richard Hoste," who wrote for white nationalist websites, where he expressed a belief that Black people are intellectually inferior, obsessed over "miscegenation," and advocated for forced sterilization of those he considered "low IQ." After his writings were exposed, there was a mad scramble among self-styled "independent thinkers" to disavow Hanania. But the protestations of shock at his secret fascist views are hard to swallow, as there is very little difference between views Hanania espoused under his own name and those he shared under the "Richard Hoste" pen name.

"These shallow attempts to explain away the damning conduct described in the indictment are a clear sign that Trump does not have a strong defense to the charges, Temidayo Aganga-Williams, former senior investigative counsel for the House Jan. 6 committee told Salon. "Trump's lawyer is instead ignoring the detailed indictment and leading with baseless claims. This may work for Trump in front of his political base, but it will not work for a jury."

What climate change deniers get totally wrong about the Little Ice Age Climate change deniers often uphold the Little Ice Age, which lasted roughly from the early 14th century through the mid-19th century, as evidence that climatologists are lying. In reality, the Little Ice Age actually demonstrates just how fragile the Earth's climate is — and, by extension, just how easily human beings (or anything else) can radically change it.
