And where is the Trump comparison wrong? Neither Trump nor Nixon have ANY government, civil service, or political experience. Nixon was on the Colbert show recently. Would any other state governor primary candidate been on the Colbert show? Pretty sure Zephyr Teachout didn’t get an invitation to the nationally…

BILLY MITCHELL KILL SCREEN. HEY EVERYBODY. THERES A BILLY MITCHELL KILL SCREEN COMING UP!!!

As is typical, this article tears down other people’s solution to the problem of Right Wing millionaires seeking to control all the media, without actually proposing a different solution. Any suggestions?

Anyone not blaming Republicans for this bill in the first place is only enabling that same GOP behavior. When you hold Democrats to account for what the GOP has wrought, you’re part of the problem. 

The thing is... the emails really were nothing. They simply were.

Emails, Emails, Benghazi, She gave speeches to Goldman Sachs, pantsuits. I’m just getting all the bullshit out of the way so the assholes that thought their principled stand in November of 2016 was worth it. Susan Sarandon you can fuck off also. Reading some the comments below from people trying to rationalize their…

Remember when a lot of liberals and independents said that a single Supreme Court opening wasn’t enough of a justification for them to vote for Hillary because something, something, being inspired, something, sticking it to the establishment, something, perpetuating the status quo?

I don’t even hate Bernie. Seems like he’s living his best doddering granddad life.

U.S. Soccer, which most Americans seem to only get really focused on around the biggest tournaments, hence why the MLS continues to be a paltry distant cousin of the powerful European leagues, and even Central and South American leagues, is stuck at a crossroads at the moment that it is having a difficult - albeit not…

I saw the statement in Facebook right after it was posted, didn’t even think about the SOTU. I liked the statement, I understood her reasoning and her regret. She makes no bones about the fact that hindsight is 20/20, in fact she devoted one of many paragraphs to that idea.

I’m Venezuelan so I’m just going to say this once: I know what is happening down there and so does my family. Please for the love of god don’t trot out the CIA bullshit because the people in the streets are the poorest of the poor. I’ve gone over this before, maybe even with you, and I don’t want to be lectured by an…

The Intercept is for White people and people willing to cape to them, like Fang. It is aimed squarely at white people, pretty much the same demographic as Jacobin, another bastion of mediocre, well to do people lecturing brown people what’s what. I can’t stand them for their fawning coverage of Maduro, which has…

Dude. They failed to reauthorize CHIP for months. There has been negative press about states running out of money for months, and they never cared. They were not suddenly going to get cold feet about failing to reauthorize it when they could use it as a weapon against Democrats willing to shut down the government over…

Meanwhile, hundreds of thousands of DACA recipients remain in legislative limbo, and the clock is ticking.

The good news (no air-quotes are needed because it is actually good news), is that we’ll be back here like we always were going to be, only now the GOP aren’t going to be able to hold poverty-level children hostage, and are going to have to convince voters that they’re holding a overwhelmingly popular program hostage…

Should have stuck it out, watched CHIP expire, then got nothing and still be the target of the GOP narrative?

“ Many of the people in fading, poor, forgotten counties who voted for Trump could just as easily be persuaded to vote for a left-wing candidate if that candidate were able to demonstrate a real understanding of their problems”

West later called Al Sharpton the “bona fide house Negro of the Obama plantation,”

A couple of unrelated points I’m too lazy to work together.
