I love how tankies like yourself have to always go back 50 years to the despots who ruled before in order to find a defense of Castro, pretending that he hasn’t simply built on what came before in terms of not letting the Cuban people decide for themselves how they would like to be governed.  

Nope, I don’t think those are the only two options, but the problem is that those are indeed two possible outcomes of that situation. Given that, do you sincerely expect anyone called upon to deal with this situation to not either be armed or have armed backup?

What do we think this situation could have looked like in a different world?

You can add the names of any America who doesn’t own land but likes voting to that list as well.

Goddammit this dude better make it to the fucking finish line. While I like most the ladies on his VP short list the hard truth is that he’s got a better shot of beating Trump than all of them.

The most straightforward point is that Jezebel’s analysis of electoral politics continues to perpetuate GMG/G/O’s long tradition of being ... just ... bad.

Really? I’ve never played Bloodborne, but outside of a few sections that are clearly meant to be the most trying sections of the non-boss parts of the game (Sen’s Fortress, Shrine of Amana come to mind) bonfires seem to be spaced at intervals that provide a reasonable tempo of building towards some central challenge,…

Trump seemed frazzled that Swan (no relation to the lake) didn’t just swallow the president’s dim-witted explanation like the fair and balanced journalists at Fox News.

It’s worth noting that this is a part of the reason the PPP loan program can’t just be a very quick process. By the end, the issue for many small businesses, including many minority owned businesses, was not that the program ran out of money, it’s that they couldn’t prove up the basic documentation necessary to verify…

Yeah the district went D+60 in 2018 and D+55 in 2016. Clay, a definite beneficiary of the closest thing our electoral system has to nepotism, was less liberal, less intelligent and less circumspect about his love of the trappings of power than guys like Joe Crowley or Eliot Engel.  Couple that with everything that has…

I suspect that’s not going to be enforced against people who were a part of winning campaigns.  It’s a D + 60 district, which is to say it’s even bluer than the districts of the rest of the “Squad”.

Support teams?

Despite being a woman with mostly questionable judgment, I have impeccable taste in reality television.

The reports of how much explosive material was in that warehouse before it blew up were pretty staggering, and that mushroom cloud is insane.

It’s silly, it’s definitely, again, “problematic” if you squint.

For example, Arthur can randomly find KKK members burning down a cross, yet players can never encounter the racially motivated lynchings that occurred at the time. Oddly enough, the game does repeatedly acknowledge racial violence against Native Americans with a late game subplot involving a tribe retaliating against…

Except “meaningfully more progressive” than 2008 still leaves you with a party that probably can barely generate a majority in favor of core pieces of Bernie’s platform, if that is your bellwether for “progressive”. 2008 Blue Dogs are indeed mostly gone, but they have been replaced and then some by a large contingent…

Nope, not even close to my problem with this article. I’m plenty worried that things could turn, but I also am not going to pretend 2020 is 2016.

I feel like this discussion has been had before, on a specific date. I’m trying to recall what it was .... I want to say it was March 3rd of this year.

Either to get white women who have been Democrats since they could vote to click and defend themselves, to others who think every white woman is the enemy because that’s so easy than to consider each person on their own merits.
