None our new "heroes" - the Bulwark crew, the Lincoln Project crew, Rick Wilson, Adam Kinzinger, the Cheneys, et al - are Liberals. A number of them have had conscience searing moments over the years, perhaps, though others are just out of jobs in this new much more Fascist GOP that now runs the show they used to be leaders of.

As for Stewart, his shelf life is pretty much expired. Both siderism is really not funny anymore.
