The commercial flashed a series of images of people washing another person's feet, with most offering an attention-grabbing role reversal of oppressor and oppressed: A cop washing a young Black man's feet, a white woman serving a migrant, and, for the one that made me guffaw the loudest, an anti-abortion protester kneeling before a presumed patient of a family planning clinic.

Trump and Carlson land in Putin's hands From Heather "Digby" Parton: Even after four years as president, Trump is still as shallow and vacuous as he was the day he was inaugurated. It's no doubt a coincidence that he made his NATO comments within days of the Tucker Carlson interview with Putin. I find it hard to believe that Trump slogged through that tedious conversation or understood what Putin was talking about. But you can bet that Putin heard Trump and rubbed his hands together with glee. If only the American people heard him just as clearly.
