You have now made a far more courageous statement of support than the Clinton campaign's official response:

There's pretty good evidence that police use social media to track activists, so part of what this tactic might disrupt is the ability to find and follow people who are actually there:

Two good podcasts for Lefty politics:
Chapo Trap House - here's an episode about how the concept of "human rights" is often cynically used by centers of power ("we need to invade Iraq because we care so darn much about how Saddam gassed Kurdish people back when he was our ally")

I hope that means Samantha Bee is frankly and unapologetically defending the efforts she and her husband have undertaken to make sure their childrens' Upper-West-Side schools remain segregated
Unfortunately, my internet is still out so I am unable to read or comment on this article.
Meh. Oliver's boneless, gatekeeping centrism is showing more and more every week. If we can bail out the financial sector, we can bail out student loans. It's a matter of priorities. Argue that Stein can't win, but let's not pretend policies that much of Western Europe take for granted are impossible.
The fact that a wealth-addicted racist sociopath is a coin-flip away from being the most powerful human on Earth says an awful lot about the nature of our institutions here in late capitalism.
I saw that. Fucking bananas. And some on the religious right were trying to get #TrumpTheRedeemed trending ha ha
Nothing is going to mobilize the protofascist right like a Clinton presidency. They are fucking nutty about her, just totally unhinged. Join a union and at least 2 or 3 other progressive groups during this next 4 years. Being organized is gonna really matter.
The Clinton campaign literally put together an ad of Republicans denouncing Trump, they put Bloomberg on stage at their convention, and they amplify it every time someone like the previous Bushes, Mitt Romney, John Negroponte, Brent Scowcroft, Max Boot, etc. (they especially do it for NatSec types) endorse Clinton or…
Also, google "schwarzenegger assault" and check out the list of women who've accused him of doing exactly what Trump was talking about.
Condoleezza Rice just made a facebook post saying the same thing.
Oh man. I respect this duo a lot and am disappointed they're working on Marky Mark's latest tragedy tourism bullshit. The Boston bombing is already one of the more grossly exploited murders I can think of, and Marky Mark is a turd on the shoe of American culture.
I think Trump is a bad choice for president and I don't even care if that's controversial around here.
I'm sure Marky Mark's other upcoming disaster movie about the Boston Marathon Bombing with be the sort of thoughtful, contextualized meditation you're looking for.
Is it about butts? I haven't read the article yet. I bet it's about butts.
It's really awesome that AVClub has an article about this! This is really important and really good. That crazy communist Bob Dole called it, "the biggest giveaway of the century. Here we are, trying to balance the budget, cutting welfare, cutting other programs, and about to give a big handout here to the rich, the…
I guess I would feel way better about the Khans if I thought the Dems were committed to rolling back empire and stopping interventionist wars, and I'd feel way better about the moms if I thought the Dems were committed to making structural & material changes (housing vouchers, de-militarization of police, more…
I love Colin Quinn's twitter feed. It's just really aggressively banal and stupid.
