I have been caling Ryan’s office a lot since the election. Some times I go straight to the switch board, I have been getting the busy signals a lot since them. For about a week I would be put on hold for absurd amounts of time while only getting through once to the switchboard again. (In what is probably a…

Hello! As a former Hill person, two things:

I think this kind of disruption is going to be really effective, it’s a great way to protest bullshit - and I think still relatively safe as well, there are no death camps* to risk by registering...

Many people are vowing to register as Muslim if a registry really happens. It makes perfect sense.

The problem with media neutrality is that they have been giving equal weight to things that do not deserve it. They became responsible for “alternative facts” when they gave Jenny-Fucking-McCarthy a seat at the table with the real doctors. There are some beliefs that are just wrong, and we should have been calling…

Exactly, so there is absolutely nothing to be gained from a Yes vote and nothing to be lost from a No vote. They can be on record opposing these appointments that we all know damn well are going to be disastrous.

Now when someone asks how she could support Trump, instead of admitting that she voted for a racist xenophobe, she can say it is because someone threw an egg at her.

Look, I supported Pol Pot because of his platform to mechanize agriculture, not for that other stuff. Stop judging me.

By the same argument, she is saying that everyone on the left is an egg-throwing psychopath.

I keep seeing different self important declarations like these about how someone assuming the person supports Trump was the last straw to push that person over to support him. What they are really saying is they know it’s socially reprehensible to go along with some of the more extreme ideals and are looking for an…

I think you maybe missed the point of her op-ed which was, succinctly, that she has chosen to embrace an ignorant, self-obsessed charlatan of a political figure because someone threw an egg at her once.

“The modern conservative is engaged in one of man’s oldest exercises in moral philosophy; that is, the search for a superior moral justification for selfishness.” - John Kenneth Galbraith

Maybe if it had just been egg whites, she’d have been ok with it?

It seems hypocritical to keep referring to it as an egg and not a chicken.
