We are the same amount of time past Obergefell as 1968 was from the Civil rights Act. And, if Shapiro and his ilk had their way, they would undo that decision.

This is also the correct ranking of Mythical Creatures I Would Fuck

Christian Zionism is an apocalyptic cult and it makes perfect sense that Bibi would find common cause with them.

I was so stoked for her goal. The penalty was absolutely the right call, but a team this good deserved to win with a goal in the run of play rather than a defender making a mistake that didn’t even deny a scoring chance. The perfect cap to the tournament.

The words sound funny. That’s really it. Only some sons are truly large adult sons, and mostly it’s just a way to say “this dude from a privileged, powerful family sucks” in a way that makes people chuckle.

No Person except a natural born Citizen, or a Citizen of the United States, at the time of the Adoption of this Constitution, shall be eligible to the Office of President; neither shall any person be eligible to that Office who shall not have attained to the Age of thirty five Years, and been fourteen Years a…

There’s a good chance that the 9 year old study is from the last year when Shapiro actually read anything. Where would he find the time?

birds are bad but this tweet is good

“My dad was a lifelong Republican, but I don’t know if he’d vote for this guy knowing how he cheats at golf.”

Medicare-for-All does not equal seizing the means of healthcare production. The hospitals, medical practices, pharma companies, medical device companies, etc. would all still be privately owned.

This is my favorite Mel Brooks movie because I am still a child. +1 for the video.

It’s really not standard corporate shenanigans to have that many board members receiving non-salary pay from the organization. There are all sorts of hoops that you are supposed to jump through to avoid accusations of self-dealing. And it looks like the NRA doesn’t even bother going through the formalities.
