Grow the fuck up in your read on this. you may not love the guy that Trump picked to lead this, but this is one of the few times that paid democratically selected and constitutionally backed coup exist. We are not nation building or propping up some upstart (for once). This entire uprising is built into their…

Why are you featuring the completely incorrect tweet from Brand New Congress on here. If you wanted to highlight people who are hesitant that we might install a banana republic, maybe find a source that doesn’t get its facts completely ass backwards. As I pointed out to them: the national assembly WAS democratically…

You say to replace “the white stuff” with snow, but how is that going to work off the sink in a Miami nightclub? Instagram models noses would get too cold.

Are we back to implying Hakeem Jefferies is anything other than quite progressive himself? Really? That seems to be how you framed that comparison. They guy has some pet issues specific to his constituency that make him, at worst, moderate in those specific issues. Otherwise that guy is one of the more left leaning…

about 12 years old now I figure. Old enough for a Bar Mitzvah. Lara would probably RSVP “no”, if I were to guess.

Touro COM in Harlem. Named after the first Jewish family in America or something like that. I would have paid more attention if the pizza at orientation wasn’t kosher. 

She is an alumni of my school... So let’s add a fun wrinkle to this whole thing. SHE WENT TO A JEWISH MEDICAL SCHOOL. I mean; I also hated the deans sometimes, but never considered genocide over it. 

Arabic.... But your point remains valid

It is a very very confusing world where I am sitting here rooting for Ham freaking Nolan. Libby you *completely* lost me when part of your opening argument was asking “does that matter if they can beat Trump, and are you making things worse by supporting a candidate who is Good over one who political elites think can…

This was written by someone who... I have to assume... Has either never read the time magazines pictured above or has forgotten how the whole thing works. All of those people and groups gets in the magazine. All of them get covered. The whole PotY edition is articles about other people and groups who could have been…

Laos and Estonia. Both sort of maybe worked. The problem with finding more good examples is dictators sort of invalidate the claim to socialism as most purely envisioned and the fact that most European “socialism” is actually free market economics with high taxes, good social programs, and (most importantly) powerful…

Here is where I disagree. You have to assume the majority of Republicans want off the trump roller coaster and him losing is the perfect time to turn on him and disembark

Except those are moderates losing races that they were expected to lose. Where they were the isolated Democrat in a sea of Republican politicians from the same state and a recent history of being very pro trump at home. The progressive wing is losing elections that no one thought they were going to lose. Also Bill…

The issue here is that this is splinter where every poster feels like the supreme court is important and many of us insulate ourselves among mostly people who would agree with us. I’ve worked in Washington for the third largest lobbyist in America and got all the formal training on what does and doesn’t resonate with…

Its going to be O'Connor running again. The assumption is it will make more Democrats turn out as they felt they were 'so close'

56% of new york city households contain zero car drivers. And as one lucky enough to be from one of those upper echelon families.... id say its true across all income strata. 56% of the well do to in new york definitely have not driven a car even once in years. Your idea of the proverbial “Sunday car” doesnt exist in…

We keep discussing Bartolo Colon... but we forget about the greatest of all time old-man pitcher. Jamie Moyer! He pitched 10 games at age 48. At the time of his retirement he faced 9% of all MLB players to ever play. When he retired, Obama was in his second term. When he started Reagan was president. His fastball…

This is literally what the jets have done every year for the last 9 years (drafting sanchez) and every year they end up with a “guaranteed starter” which worked out roughly 50% of the time and the 2nd or 3rd round qb they get *every year* rides the pine until he is dropped from the team 2 years later. Geno Smith being…

I literally just showed this comment to my dentist mid-cleaning to explain why i couldnt stop laughing. Then he couldn’t stop. Miracle i still have teeth.

The song they are playing is “shut up and dance.” Coincidentally also the RNCs only current strategy for how to make Trump more palatable during speeches.
