I am not trying to be kind, but I do think it’s important to understand that a LOT of Americans still don’t realize whom this is impacting. Now, don’t get me wrong— probably 30-35% is the absolute floor for support— I’m talking basement floor, they see Customs shooting German or Swedish grandmothers who hold Green…

One of the most underreported aspects of this “temporary ban” is how transparently bullshit the purported justification for it is. Put aside all the arguments about which countries were included on the list and how they aren’t the ones producing terrorists that are killing Americans, and put aside the argument about…

Look, liberals,

Trump should not be allowed to nominate a Supreme Court Justice in the last year of his presidency #MicDrop

You can fit a mattress in a truck bed, does that qualify?

This is the only thing I want to talk about today. The Truck Fucking urge is starting to percolate into all facets of society. Have you ever had sex in a truck? Let me tell you, it’s one of the least sexy vehicle options. We all know it only ranks slightly higher than a mini-van.

I couldn’t give a shit about the hat he keeps in his locker. I do give a shit about somebody being asked a question he knows is coming that deals with a topic gravely affecting thousands of people who live far less glamorous lives than he, and his response is that he hasn’t been paying attention and that he’s just a…

If you voted for Donald Trump, Fuck You.

Brooks vs Sumner. Never forget.

Bannon’s fingerprints are all over this ban. Apparently (though Preibus denied this), he disagreed with DHS that the ban would not apply to green card holders, which created further confusion. I was reading yesterday that Bannon allegedly told a Daily Beast reporter that he was a Leninist in that he wanted to tear…

Being afraid of stairs and doorways is CLASSIC, well-documented dementia behavior.

A few of things that occurred to me about this ban; 1) It was swift and immediate, which Trump could look like he was keeping his promise to his supporters 2) Whoever “pushed” the idea and executive order forward didn’t have legal counsel  review it to see if it could stand up to legal scrutiny? 3) With attorneys and…

If they thought I was a nasty, shrill, bleeding-heart, progressive, feminist liberal before, they haven’t seen anything yet.

That is exactly on topic.

As someone just looking on in horror from Australia, I’m beginning to be worried that nothing will stop this short of a literal armed mob storming the White House and throwing him out (not lynching or roughing him up, just picking him up and throwing him out onto the street). He doesn’t even seem to care about…

Subsequent post-1964 laws nullify/modify this. The times has a piece (written by someone from the Cato Institute!) explaining why his band is clearly illegal, citing Carter (whose Iran ban allowed for a lot of exceptions).

Here are just some of the dangerous people our customs official was keeping us safe from:

I’ve gotta be honest, things have been fucking BLEAK for me lately. I’m on the verge of losing the job that provides me with healthcare and since the ACA is about to be gone, so will my bipolar meds and my ability to pay for therapy sessions. I am deeply in debt for a variety of reasons and will very likely end up in…

I’m just heading home from O’Hare. It was awesome. We probably had 3-5k people turn up. We. Shut. Shit. Down.

As the reporter Samantha Bee interview said, I think panic is good. Never give an inch.
