If every single Democrat doesn’t vote against DeVos, I will snap. She is a horrible monstrous person.

There MUST be something like that going on. Unless it’s just a case of “we’ll, we can’t oppose all his picks, who are we, Mitch McConnell?”

This is what I’m really hoping, especially with Devos...

I can only assume (hope?) they are backing him because they have bigger fish to fry in terms of the cabinet nominees (like they’ve made a deal that they’ll back him if so-and-so doesn’t back someone else?). This still feels like a betrayal, but there are worse cabinet picks, imo.

This shit is so dangerous. It erodes our faith in our democratic institutions. We may survive a trump presidency but the US won’t be able to survive a complete loss of faith in things like our elections and our press for example. It will breed widespread corruption and authoritarianism as people will think trump is…

Literally they are saying it’s ok to murder someone.

A particularly insane bill proposed in North Dakota would legally enable drivers to injure or kill anyone who is “obstructing vehicular traffic” on a public road, so long as it was deemed an accident.

I can’t wait for the Mark Wahlberg film.

Don’t worry, folks. The incoming national security adviser has determined that Flynn is not a threat to national security and that the investigation should be dropped. Instead, the entire staff of the CIA is going to be flown to Benghazi to continue with the investigation.

What I took away from it is that we’re only allowed to be dissatisfied with one thing at a time, and one thing only!

actual typo.

Wait, who isn’t protesting Roe v. Wade? Republicans CONSTANTLY complain about Roe v. Wade and try to gut it. What the hell is this guy on about?

And this is why Rudy Nosferatu Giuliani is a failed politician and probably couldn’t even be elected dog catcher. Thanks for your irrelevant opinion, Nosferatu.
