There’s a 100% chance that border wall construction would have started by now if any other human being in America was Speaker. I doubt anyone else in the House would have had the pull to keep the entire party in line during a 2 week shutdown

An NBA franchise paying a guy one hundred and twenty-five million dollars to fuck off would be next level.

Seriously Jalen, feel free to move to Bangladesh. No one will hassle you about vaccinations there.

If Steve King is any indicator, you have to literally call yourself a white supremacist or say the 14 words. Anything less is in the grey area.

They still peddle the lies about No Go Zones in France and think you can’t walk down the street in London without getting acid thrown on you by a refugee. 

People like Maggie Haberman know what’s up, but they also know if they report on certain topics, they’ll likely lose sources from within the White House unless they release it on the White House’s timetable.

They gave just as much money to Eastman as they did to Finkenauer, and Finkenauer actually won in a redder district, so maybe they were onto something with not pouring money into these candidates?

I see this brought up pretty much every time anyone talks about women’s soccer, and I just don’t buy the idea that it was a competitive match where both sides were actively trying to win. I mean, the USWNT were all taking goofy selfies with the boys after the game. If they had just gotten clobbered in a serious match…

The Sandhills are nice. I like Toadstool and the areas near the Badlands in the northwest corner. Scotts Bluff and Pine Ridge are okay. But I’d never compare the scenery to the west coast, Utah, or the areas near the Great Lakes.

As a transplant in Nebraska, I’d argue that the people aren’t any more friendly than…

My first thought was getting a dog to focus on one thing for 10 minutes (even if that thing is eating) would be incredibly difficult. Like, training a seeing-eye dog takes 16 hours a day of training for a full calendar year and even they get thrown off sometimes if they spot something unusual out of the corner of…

No idea about a crash, but your comment was about Obama’s approval numbers at this point in 2011, so I figured it was relevant. 

Based on 1992 exit polling, Perot voters would have went 38/38/24 between Bush/Clinton/Would Not Have Voted if Perot wasn’t on the ballot, so a 3rd party presence didn’t really matter in…

I had the misfortune of stumbling on a handful of reddit threads about this, and they were filled with thousands of users and tens of thousands of comments all upset about this casting. I’m sure there’s some people just trolling to get a bigger rise out of people, but it’s way more than “like 6 bot accounts”.

The line about embracing leftism or socialism falls apart when looking back just 8 months ago. Justice Dem/OR candidates flipped a grand total of zero red districts. In fact, Paul Ryan’s and Don Bacon’s seats were winnable until the Justice Dem won the primary.

Bernie’s been in the Senate for 12 years and he has changed literally nothing. 

The entire premise of this article is flawed if you look at real-world opinion polling rather than just the Extremely Online Primary. The fact is that Bernie and Warren aren’t competing for the same votes. Bernie supporters’ 2nd choice is Biden. Warren supporters’ 2nd choice is Kamala. Biden and Bernie are competing…

HW Bush lost in 1992. At this point in his presidency, he had 71% job approval. 

The supermax has only been around for like 2 years and only 5 players have ever signed one, so it’s not exactly a great sample size. Curry, Harden, Westbrook, Wall, Lillard. Giannis will probably get offered one within the next 3 months, so if he takes it there’ll be 6 signed, and only 4 active.

To answer the first one: No one who is upset about this would have ever found out this existed or wanted to attend anyway if not for the internet outrage. You can look up the event webpage. It’s just some hastily thrown-together narrative filled with misspellings. It barely seems like a real event. Then you can look…
