Yes, this. My uncle is this guy. Goddamn, I love him but he’s an asshole (in so many ways.)

Thanks for the info, I simply didn’t know that the new camps were also being removed.

Damn, uncle.

One of my Native cousins voted for Trump. He thought Hillary would be worse....

This is not surprising to many of us in Indian Country. We knew this was coming when Trump was elected. We are expecting more encoachments on our rights and violations of our treaties. Trump honors nothing but himself.

Two things worth noting. One, this quote from the WaPo. “The Standing Rock Sioux Tribe had already passed a tribal resolution asking protesters to leave and requesting federal aid in closing the camp.”

Venus is very happy, and I’m happy, too, because  she’ll be playing her sister in the final.

California doesn’t need the government’s money, the government needs California’s money.

In case anyone doesn’t know, a big part of the reason why Obama has granted so much more clemency than previous presidents is because he is effectively making the Fair Sentencing Act retroactive.

I think they missed an opportunity with Diane, who is a character modeled off of little girls who have a lot in common with Hillary Clinton.

I am white, but my grandfather on my father’s side was not and grew up on a reservation. He adopted my father when he married my grandmother and was the only father that my dad ever knew. You would not believe the number of white people that have told me that I should use that connection to my advantage (especially…

Just going to point out that commutation of ones sentence does not absolve one of the crime. It does not remove the verdict. It does not remove the felony. Its simply a ‘and we’re now letting you go’ for whatever reason.

But if the average sentence for her crime is 3.5 years, she’s already served that time. She has paid her debt.

The sentence was way out of range. Trump’s own National Security adviser leaked intel to Pakistan with at least as much consequence to field operations, and what was his punishment? He was informally reprimanded

My husband and I had a good talk about this on Sunday. My reaction was and remains that the core “joke” there is “haha, men kissing each other is weird, especially if the men are good looking and famous!” It’s a classic “surprise!” joke, where the humor is supposed to come from your shock at an unexpected thing…

Who would have thought Seth Meyers would emerge as the hard-hitting late-night personality?
