I actually agree, and there was some talk about it even then.

On the other hand, they should be pissed off if we win the Senate back and don’t add two more seats to the court.

Dems didn’t hold the Senate in 2015/2016 when Trump started to emerge as the frontrunner. 2014 was her last opportunity, and Trump didn’t factor into it.

Simple: if they fill the seat and Democrats win the Senate back in November, they change the size of the court to 11 the instant Biden is sworn in. If Republicans are going to be this venal, that needs to be the threat.

Too bad they won’t do it.

Does this mean they’ll stop whining about kids being too fragile nowadays?

No, of course not.

I did and all I could find were a bunch of photos of Bill Barr, like this one. Maybe I’m not looking hard enough.

We white guys own everything else. We want to own being slaves too. We want to be acknowledged as the oppressed population. Not to be actually oppressed, of course; we just want credit for it.

This has been going on forever. This is just the latest (and most pathetic) case for white oppression so far.

You elected him to throw women and ethnic and sexual minorities under the bus, as well as anyone who doesn’t live in a swing state.

How does it feel, motherfucker?

You are absolutely correct. This article needs to be retracted with an apology and replaced with one that provides complete information.

They didn’t. Not even in this article. Mormon Nailer is either not paying enough attention or they’re arguing in bad faith.

Does anyone else remember John Boehner’s giant gavel?

1 or 2% or possibly even less than that probably does cover the very worst abusers, the ones who are so obviously corrupt or morally depraved that their crimes simply cannot be covered up forever. But the ones who commit the “lesser” crimes, including the use of excessive force, as well as the ones who lie or simply…

Because their go-to of lying or blaming the victim is still working, even if it’s not as effective as it used to be. Their key advantage now is that the issue is extremely politicized. If you are critical of the police, you’re someone who wants rioters to run rampant across the suburbs. Their best play, if they’re not…

That about sums it up. It’s absolutely exhausting. There’s no point in saying anything because there is no one left who can be convinced by rational arguments. If you’re not fed up with Donald Trump by now and want to see him gone, or you think JOE BIDEN is a dangerous radical who is just as bad or slightly worse than…

Dude, what the fuck are you talking about? You’re responding to an argument no one made, let alone the person you’re actually replying to.

The article itself says the causes are complex. But there is absolutely no doubt that higher temperatures and drier conditions make these worse. You may as well be arguing that,…

Of course he isn’t worried. The monster they created may not look or act quite like they intended, but it’s still going to accomplish the goal of pushing extremist views into the mainstream.

The party leadership couldn’t give less of a shit about the social policy objectives of these types of candidates; they only care…

It may be rhetorical, but it’s worth pointing out that the lowering of the bar hasn’t been some sort of natural phenomenon, or can be adequately explained by the Internet’s enabling of the proliferation of previously fringe viewpoints. The right has been lowering it for decades, and the Democratic Party has been…

Which is weird, because with the Trump crowd, she could have gotten away with saying that they carry guns because there are filthy, degenerate drug-users around.

Of course, if she wins, the bar drops that much lower, and if she loses, well, they can try again in two years with a safer, but still insane pick.

At the very least, it means they’re touching their masks less often than they might otherwise. Hopefully they’re using hand sanitizer too, though.
