"Don't filibuster because then they might take away the filibuster" seems like a weird strategy.

Worse: we're relying on Jeff Sessions to not be racist as fuck.

Even though the new Acting AG was never confirmed by the Senate to work in the Justice Department, the Bannon Administration is claiming that he has this authority due to being confirmed by the Senate as a US Attorney.

I'd find it hard to believe that they didn't work hard enough to pass the ACA.

So they shouldn't oppose this fascist wacko nominee because… what? It might encourage Trump to nominate another fascist wacko later?

The problem there is that the Democratic Party doesn't march in lockstep like the Republicans. He did get a whole bunch of extremely popular healthcare policies instituted, but wasn't able to make the law as good as he wanted to because of Blue Dog Democrats like Ben Fucking Nelson.

Ideally the Republicans would've been punished for this bullshit by Democratic voters. But they thought President Donald Trump was better than holding their nose and voting for a person they agree with like 85% of the time.

Just like Hillary Clinton was talking about jobs, and education, and the environment every damn day. But people don't believe she did because it didn't end up leading the 6 o'clock news.

Which was only necessary because Republicans blocked perfectly qualified judges for no actual reason.

It's a shame she was right there on camera the whole time. I really wish the conversation were about how much fire Harbour was spitting and not about how many tabs she'd popped before the speech.

At least the Netherlands has learned this lesson. They've got their own alt-Reich party which very well may win a plurality of seats in March. But, like last time, every single other party has said ahead of time that they won't form a government with them.

Don't cut yourself on that edge, Buzz.

Yes. For some reason it was the goofy smile at the end that made me think of Mayim Bialik.

She lost by a total of 80,000 votes in 3 states, because someone came out with bullshit news a week before the election. I mean, that's not ideal. You could argue that it shouldn't have been that close. But damn, to fault somebody this badly for a razor-thin loss seems excessive.

I am not in love with the album, but I want to make babies with that track.

Debunked by the Washington Post: https://www.washingtonpost….

I always just call it Pellegrino. I don't think I've ever called it San Pellegrino. Until now, I don't even think I knew that was its name.

Barely did one thing right, yet somehow won the popular vote handily, and only lost the election by 80,000 total votes when Chaffetz leaked meaningless information a week before the election that people latched on to, yet was confirmed meaningless a couple of days later.

That narrative drives me nuts. It's false. It's fake news. It's brought on by the belief that the only things Clinton cared about were Trump and power.

I don't have anything lined up yet. I'm searching frantically. Worst case scenario is I get a visitor visa while my girlfriend completes her Master's degree (which is why we're moving in the first place).
