I’m glad I’m not the only one to reference this (although I don’t know how to embed the tweets, I did link them in my response). I certainly hope the author simply missed these tweets, because the article sure goes out of its way to ignore them. 

“It would also be good to know if Ocasio-Cortez agrees with Omar’s comments about the power that groups like AIPAC have in Washington.”

I don’t know how to embed tweets, but her earlier thread today would seem to indicate that yes, she does agree:

The thing about Batman Forever is that Kilmer is actually a really good Batman and Bruce Wayne. Unfortunately, the script didn't do much for everyone else. 

Not one word about the soundtrack though? IS IT A TOEJAM AND EARL GAME WITHOUT THAT MUSIC?!

I don't know, I think it makes sense the Seahawks would incorporate a staring contest after Russell Wilson lost his so badly against Malcolm Butler. 

It really comes down to his protection. The o-line has to erect a safe pocket for him

Oh no, shocking, who could have predicted this would happen, no one could have foreseen Trump not paying people who work under an organization essentially headed by him at this moment of time, no, there’s not a pattern of this in his history, oh no.

Seriously though, fuck Trump, fuck this administration, fuck the…

All of this. Couldn’t have said any of it better myself. 

The hypocrisy that, one of the GOP reps can sit there and say to Cohen, “you’ve lied before, thus making you a liar,” painting that sweeping generalization, but when Tlaib points out what WAS a racist act, using a black woman as a prop without even having her speak, somehow Mark Meadows does not believe he’s a racist.

…

^ this. Seriously. 

“[...]and soon I found I was actually running out of things to say that I didn’t like about myself, and the list that I do like could still continue on.”

Hahaha, running out of things to say, like that ever happens.


....wait, does that happen for other people?  

It’s almost like EVERYONE should get a full, living wage, and then have more disposable income, that they can then afford to give back into the economy by buying goods and services like, say, dinners from nice restaurants and then fueling those workers’ wages, and so on, and so forth.

^ this.

Mueller basically will give the blueprint for criminal investigations of Trump by House Dems, Senate Dems (if they get the Senate back) and US and state attorneys to follow. Sadly, this isn’t over when the Mueller investigation is over, but hopefully it leads to a firm and sweeping resolution. 

Fair point, but it can be both. Just because it appeals to his base doesn’t change that it’s an attack. 

As I said over on Splinter, nothing quite like making rules based entirely on bullshit. This should be recognized for what it is: a blatant attack on half of America’s population, nothing more. 

Nothing quite like creating rules based entirely on bullshit.

This is an attack on half of America’s population, and that’s the simple truth. That’s all it is. 

I have to wonder if it's any coincidence that he said this on the same day the Covington douchebag announced his lawsuit. 

Look, I’m just one guy, I only play Road to the Show on MLB, and I suck at Out of the Park baseball, so take this with all the grains of salt in the ocean, but Andujar was a stud last year, the Yankees have an incredible young group there with him, Torres and Gregorious (they’ll uh....figure out something regarding…

This is neat. I’ve always had a pretty typical American diet, but this year my fiancee decided to go back to being pescatarian after a year off (lived in SC, was hard to find meat-alternatives, etc etc) and I decided to give it a try despite being a fairly picky eater. I’ve enjoyed just about all the new foods I’ve…

Fine, give him the national emergency. But, let’s remember: we had Hillary in a year when there was a Supreme Court seat (that turned into 2). So, if Trump gifts us the “use a national emergency to get what I want” thing, let’s please elect someone in 2020 who would absolutely stand by using it for healthcare and…
