What I don’t get is that, in fact, an assault weapons ban would have worked here. He wasn’t a criminal buying firearms on the black market; he purchased them legally. A ban on assault weapons would have abso-fucking-lutely prevented him from obtaining assault rifles and bump-stocks!

There are special places in hell for this lot.

I’m not responding in outrage to the Las Vegas shooting. I’m still trying to have a respectful discussion about Sandy Hook. It’s going to be a few more years before I get to Las Vegas.

Any mention of noted clod Donald Trump, Jr. should be proceeded by “noted clod”.

#noshit will be hearing from my #lawyer!

Getting one of your employees with a Jewish sounding name to explain your anti-Semitic video is just some good, solid public relations...but having them explicitly state multiple times that they are Jewish on top of that is a little much.

Exactly. This is the not-that-subtle distinction that people who are paid millions of dollars every year to decide what goes on network TV should be able to make, right? At Fox News it didn’t really matter who was spouting the “Jesus and Santa Claus are white, libtards!” bullshit to mouth-breathing male, white…

A simulation of the exact moment when an Ennn Beee See execubot realized that he/she fucked up huge with MK.

This is one of the worst cases of a writers’ room not getting their host that I’ve seen in a long time. With the right host, either (both?) of those jokes could land.

For profit health care is degrading the United States to third world status faster than any other regressive policy the conservative fascists can burrow out of their fetid think tanks. Any not for profit system would be a boon for 95% of our population at this point. Medicare for all. Doctors who don’t like it can…

The Republicans have become willing hostages of the Kochs. When the Kochs demand that they do something or lose 400m in funding, they do it.

Ah yes, that makes this bill so much better now that it super clearly panders to GOP states with increased budgets for them alone.

This is why you don’t make scandals out of bullshit, you idiots! One after another, Republicans are getting caught doing this thing which wouldn’t have been a big deal if they hadn’t tried to make Hillary’s server into the crime of the century.

Nice, Russian. Now fuck off.

Man, these dumb fucks really are their own worst enemies.

“Even Chuck Grassley, who is voting for this, admits that the thing is terrible, but they have to be able to say they repealed Obamacare.”

Everyone involved in healthcare in any way is against this. I heard someone accusing the Democrats of being hypocrites today because they treated the health insurance industry as boogymen when they passed Obamacare, but now are citing the fact that the insurers are against it as a talking point. It’s not that we think…

I know Rupert is repugnant, but so is elder abuse.

Has the stunning hypocrisy of Nicole Kidman condemning domestic violence at the Emmy’s and thanking Wendi Murdoch in her speech been pointed out yet? If you recall, Wendi shoved her elderly husband into a grand piano and regularly abused her household staff. So, Nicole, when you are speaking about ending domestic…

When will Republicans say the word “Radical Christianity”?
