Gabby Giffords says, "Hello..."

Um, I do, but I still need sunscreen for my neck, face, hands, and feet. 

Look, I’m all for putting shithead men to task when they step out of line and treat women like shit.. but the reporter in question here herself said she would not qualify what happened to her as a form of sexual assault, but inappropriate physical contact is all. It was still a dickish thing to do but I think people

I honestly don’t think they have the votes to ban abortion nationwide. There are at least two GOP senators who reliably vote against abortion ban legislation. The real problem I think is that states will start enacting laws that technically aren’t abortion bans but will make it harder/impossible for clinics to stay

“...conveniently forgetting that in the primaries Bernie Sanders won Michigan and Wisconsin, two states the more centrist Hillary Clinton lost in the general”

Look, we’re on the same side, but we don’t have to be intellectually dishonest to prove our point. In fact it detracts from it and makes us sound foolish. 570,

Evil white male oppressor here. Not fucking scared. Like, not even a little.

Winning a primary doesn’t mean you can win the general. Hence the long history of far left and far right individuals winning primaries and then losing to moderates in the general. So its very disingenuous to argue otherwise when our resuregence has come with moderate Dems beating far right asshats. That said, the left

Skorts all day long! Not the kind we had when I was 12, either. Kinja won’t let me upload a photo, but Athleta, among others, has super comfortable, sporty skorts. They don’t get all crotchy when you sit down and they are as casual as shorts. Mine have useable pockets, too, which are handy for a phone and keys.

Dumbass in the greys:

I’m going to argue something that may come as a surprise and perhaps silver lining to most reading: if (and probably when after yesterday) Roe is overturned, it will be a terrible thing short term but probably ensures that many more battles longer-term are won.

Yup yup.  There are Democrats in Red states, that are farmers, that love their guns, that are Christians, that are pro-life.  When the far left expects full buy in to every single far left policy overnight then Democrats will lose every one of those voters.  

You personally may be far left but I assure you, without a doubt, most in purple states are not.  Running a far left candidate for president in 2020 is a pipe dream and a recipe for guaranteed failure.  Elizabeth Warren will be the Democratic presidential candidate.  I’d bet my last dollar on it.

Pushing the parties further apart is a recipe for 2020 disaster. If any of you think for one second that a far left candidate will win an election for president in the United States of America you’re high AF.  The most diverse district in the melting pot is NOT indicative of America at large.  It is an outlier, and

As long as you run the most liberal/leftist candidate your district can tolerate, you should be fine. Manchin works in WV as much as Ms. Ocasio-Cortez works in her NYC district. Run the centrists on the purple districts your DSA card holders in the city and your DINO’s in the red.

Goodbye abortion rights...

So let’s see, in the last 2 days at the SCOTUS.......

Oh, he’s joygasming at this very moment because the Supreme Court upheld the fucking travel ban.

Eh, You say Potato, I say Gestapo.

If we’re that worried about said international border, it should be clearly marked and fenced so people can’t accidentally cross it. 

I, quite literally, live around the corner from Nielsen. I was alerted to the protest this morning, because I could hear it outside whilst taking my morning constitutional. I couldn’t get my pants up fast enough to check it out.
