I’m gonna guess that most cultures hold that unruly boys who will not grow up and unruly girls who will not settle down must be taken in hand. I’ll grant that some cultures’ patriarchal violence is bigger than others, though.

“In Russian traditional family culture parent-child relationships are built on the authority of the parents’ power,” adding, “The laws should support that family tradition.”

It’s really hard to build your career on denouncing the Castro regime and then turn a blind eye to what a horrifyingly evil motherfucker Putin is. Not impossible, mind you, but pretty damn hard.

clearly fake news...C-Span doesn’t even get a measurable rating...sad!

Our late night comedians (with the exception of Fallon) and Teen Vogue are hitting Trump harder than the NYT, WSJ, etc.

Pence, although evil to the core, is also boring. He’s a Q-Tip brought to life. The crazies won’t get the entertainment value Dump brought and wander off, so that might limit his scope a little.

If a blowjob took down Clinton, golden showers and sex workers in Russia caught on tape should be fucking dynamite against Trump. And yet, we all know that it’s only immoral when Democrats do it.

It’s the espionage, the allegations that Trump and his campaign *were* in collusion with a foreign power, that get me.

I am normally as rational as hell but this whole Trump thing has me almost turned inside out in terror. I’ve been studying history for WAY too many decades not to see the parallels to WWII (and not just Trump, but LOTS of unbalanced leaders at once.) And Trump is just gagging to use nukes (WTF does he care, he’ll be…

I mean, the point of this is that Russia (allegedly) had unsavory information and were blackmailing Trump. It’s relevant, even if stupid.

Given the choice between Trump and Pence, and just Pence (and some other “typical” Republicans), I’ll choose the latter. Trump not only is crazy and might be compromising our national security with goddamn Twitter, but he is the hero and figurehead of a disastrous movement. They’re not going to follow Pence like they…

That’s what I’m saying, about Comey! Like, he has thwarted investigations, lied to create scandal around Hillary days before the election, and he has been an active participant in obscuring information. W. T. F.

It’s now come out that the FBI pursued and eventually obtained FISA warrants on four different Trump campaign staffers suspected of Russian collusion way back in October. Yet the Weiner laptop is the thing that deserves an unprecedented pre-election letter? Such bullshit.

No. It wouldn’t. Because they would not have been privy to this news.

Now we know why the Repugnican leadership didn’t stop Trump from getting the nomination. They knew he was their best chance to get the presidency into their hands. They figured if they stopped him his deplorables would revolt and destroy the party, but if he won they could depose Trump and (if necessary) Pence,…

Y’know what, now it doesn’t matter anymore whether or not it’s true! Can’t stuff that toothpaste back into the tube. And I’m happy to watch it spread & fester as it will. He’s relied so much on fake news, he deserves this.

No doubt that it was that close. But if the swing reporters didn’t care about xenophobia, corruption, mendacity, ties to white supremacists, and incitement to violence, why would this have changed their minds? The idea that he was being blackmailed by Russia had been tossed around, and legitimate affection for Putin…

Hookers? Don’t care.

“The news also helps explain Senator Harry Reid’s open letter to FBI director James Comey a few days before the election, in which he alleged, “In my communications with you and other top officials in the national security community, it has become clear that you possess explosive information about close ties and…

I’m worn out trying to explain to people on the twitbox why #PEEOTUS and #GOLDENSHOWERS are trending.
