This receives the Smartass Upvote of Approval.

The Balbo Monument is still standing in Chicago:

Put me on that woman's jury and I will nullify the shit out of her case.

You're one to talk.

"Unite the Right" did have permits, but so did the counter-protesters. Trump's fascist staff is going to keep repeating the talking point that only the terrorists had a permit, but that is most definitely not true.

Any contact with him will only encourage more contact, no matter what you say. You might also make a request to your parents that if he ever tries to use them to contact you again, they should shut it down. To not even tell you that he tried again.

Joe Cocker singing a love ballad will never, ever, make sense to me.

"The only way to make sure the Washington Monument and the Lincoln Memorial remain standing is the preserve all the pro-Confederate statues across the country."

If he's in the Senate and the Dems pick up a couple of seats to create a 50-50 split, he's going to have a tremendous amount of influence. He can threaten to withhold his vote unless his own pet concerns get addressed. And EVERY one of his pet concerns is an attack on religious liberty.

The British model always struck me as giving much more control to the writers. So, if the writers feel that they can come up with high-quality material for another season, then they're given another season. If not, then they aren't.

So someone who'd attended even a single meeting (and may have accepted an invitation to a meeting without…

A former lover kept her socks on because, as she explained, all the blood rushed to her naughty bits and her feet would get cold.

Oh yes, that's consistent. There's a lot of overlap between these folks and the religious extremists who are convinced that democracy is a failure and we're headed for a totalitarian government. And whoever controls that government will commit mass murder against everyone not in power.

The irony is in danger of burning out my monitor from all the fascist pigs applauding Trump for his "leadership" which he supposedly showed by blatantly changing course to placate whoever was yelling at him most recently.

Yes - he conflated two slave-owning Founding Fathers with the military leader of an armed rebellion against the very republic those Fathers Founded. So an attack against Lee is also an attack against Washington and Jefferson.

Nor France or Poland or Holland.

People do love to believe pure propaganda wholeheartedly.

Theory: Trump is not a White Supremacist.

"The U.S. had the best slavery, out of all the countries that used to have slavery."

"Bridges over the Mississippi? Why can't people just take their private jets?"
