If you have to “trade something to get Republicans to sign on” to so something to end this repugnant, immoral travesty, then that means the Republicans have no morals — because one shouldn’t have to ‘sweeten the pot’ to get them to do the right thing in this circumstance. Hell, this isn’t about increasing Head Start…

Your average American may be extremely dumb

And that’s fine, at least it was mocking. But I still would prefer non-news propaganda shit like this were just ignored by the media. 

It actually isn’t: Drumpf administration again blames others for its own family separation policy

You forgot a few, though he didn’t necessarily make public promises for these:

Yes, actually, I think they should. Now, they have to be more respectful to him than they are to SHS (not because he actually deserves that respect, but because of the office he holds), but it could still be done. And you’re right, he probably would turn around and scream “FAKE NEWS!” which would show him to be the…

I’m not gay, but I support same-sex marriage. And there’s no way I’m giving up CFA. It’s the best fast food around. 

Honestly, I’d have preferred if he’d just ignored Rubio’s rant entirely. The tweet could (should) be read as mockery, but it’s possible (I don’t know Wright’s work, so I can’t speak to his mindset) that this was a sincere (or at least non-mocking) tweet. In any event, it isn’t newsworthy (like most of the tweets out…

He said that fruits and vegetables have as much DNA from fetuses aborted 50+ years ago as do the vaccines, which is to say ~0. He could also have said there’s as much DNA from those fetuses in the paint on his house, or in orbit around the Earth, as in the vaccines, and it would have been similarly accurate.

No, but don’t dismiss his magnanimity just because you have nicer stuff than he does. Again, show some empathy. And he didn’t set up the GoFundMe and may not even know about it, so don’t argue that he “parlayed this into a $12K payday.” Or, you know, just continue being a shithead. Up to you.

Again, your empathy knows no bounds. Good luck in your job with the Trump Administration. You’re well suited for a role in ICE or in the Sessions DOJ. 

Yeah, great point, Mr. Empathy. It may have not been much, and it may have been “mostly trash”, but it was all he had. So how about Sintay comes to your residence and purposely destroys all of your belongings. Would you be as magnanimous? I’m guessing not.

Fortunately, they will not be federal charges, so a Trump pardon would do nothing. Kinda like his proposed pardon of Muhammad Ali.

Generally, yes. But I believe attorney-client privilege does still apply and would prevent an otherwise public record from being subject to FOIA. If an attorney-client relationship existed between Engler and Viventi, as Special Counsel to the President, then the email should not have been released. (N.B. I’m not a…

No, not really (or frankly, at all). I do mergers and acquisitions, and I’m lucky if I can handle my own speeding tickets, let alone serious white collar crime. Yes, I went to law school (one far better than Cooley), and I took criminal law and evidence, but I didn’t take criminal procedure (not mandatory), which is…

To the extent Cohen is a practicing lawyer (based on the press descriptions of what he did, he wasn’t practicing law), he was not a criminal defense lawyer. And even if he were, it’s never a good idea to represent yourself in court, let alone in criminal court with substantial charges hanging over your head. On top of…

Nope, that’s way too low. I wouldn’t be surprised if their rates were double that. 

This x 1,000,000. Some really shitty people bought the magazine recently, and it’s the only thing the same is the name. 

Are you saying you don’t salt onion rings (or really, anything else that comes out of the fryer)? There’s nothing sadder than unsalted fried foods. (Well, there’s a shit ton of things sadder, but you get my point....)

Now THAT is a pretty fucking great story!
