I know you be typing fast, MH. But I want it to be clear to the clear-people, that’s 400+ years of foot-necking.

Watergate took two years to investigate and finally precipitate Nixon’s resignation.

Even if the Dems retake the House and Senate and impeach Trump, laws that he signed, executive orders that he issued, and lifetime appointments that he makes don’t just disappear.

It drives me nuts that a lot of liberals are hanging onto the idea that Trump’s actions in the WH will somehow be undone if he leaves office. It’s that kind of magical thinking that could help him be reelected. If we want to stop Trump, we have to stop him at the ballot box. Period. End of story.

If Gorsuch actually possessed the character necessary to be a SC Justice, he would have withdrawn his nomination as soon as the Senate changed the rules.

How the hell have we reached the point where the confirmation of a Supreme Court Justice is confined to “shit we couldn’t cover today”?

My sister went to a private middle school, and after reading “The Diary of Anne Frank,” they visited the Holocaust Museum. The next day, they had to sit in silence, with the lights turned off in the classroom, and the blinds only partially open. Even the most hormonal kid was profoundly moved and changed by the…

I’m not understanding why people feel the need to reenact a slave auction, unless it’s a part of a Play, movie, etc. In a classroom setting, I think discussion is quite enough, especially at the elementary level. I understand that the children “used creative license”, but the responsible adult should’ve stepped in and…

I don’t understand what hotep means in this context.

Parton is beloved in East Tennessee cause she made good and came back for her people. Everyone loves her, even my mamaw that watches nothing but Fox news.

You rolled up six or seven cars deep into a mostly African-American neighborhood with Confederate flags flying from every single vehicle. You purposely went out looking for a fucking conflict, and when you noticed…

I’m a bad person for what? Hoping that maybe Trump has to see his kid go through a fraction of the kind of suffering he’s inflicting on other kids? I’ll take it. Yeah, I really don’t have enough shits to give about Baron, sorry.

Awfully generous of you to assume he gives a shit about his kids.

And Ms. DeVos, faced with the choice of resigning or defying the president, has agreed to go along.

there is literally no outrage or snark in this blog i love isabelle huppert and she also frightens me

I’m holding out for ancient psychic tandem war elephants.

capitalism cannot reform itself; it is doomed to self-destruction.

It’s always so strange to me how people have such a hard time believing that 1. law enforcement officials have often chosen their professions specifically because it allows for abuse of power and 2. how unjustly and poorly women - especially poor women - are treated in this society.

Another thing lost in this whole shit sandwich story is the $10K bail for driving on a suspended license. Granted, I do not know all circumstances, but in what world is this an appropriate amount?

My father is white. He doesn’t accept responsibility for all white people nor their viewpoints any more than I accept responsibility for all black people and their viewpoints. To do so would indicate a level of the white guilt that I address in this piece.
