Mirriam Webster definition: “a political philosophy, movement, or regime (such as that of the Fascisti) that exalts nation and often race above the individual and that stands for a centralized autocratic government headed by a dictatorial leader, severe economic and social regimentation, and forcible suppression of…

Unfortunately, Trump is far more valuable to Putin alive as he is doing such a splendid job of alienating the entire world.

Sorry, The Nation, but “troubled by reports” isn’t going to cut it. This is fascism, this is how it starts, if no one puts up a serious fight, it only goes one way from here.

That motherfucker is a traitor. America has done some fucked up shit over the years, but you either live here and are loyal to the general idea of the country and it’s institutions or you are not. He is clearly not a loyal American. It just amazes me that his dotards think the border is so important (without a border…

Wait, this is bad.

Don’t do it again, i.e., definitely do it again, in fact, you better be doing it right now.

First, get an ancient phone . . .

Look, why bother pretending anymore? This is hell world.

Liberal’s got outfoxed on the judiciary, plain and simple. We lost, and there’s no making up this lost ground. It’s too late to teach our voters to use their votes strategically. The right spent decades getting to this point and their plan is now bearing fruit.

They voted to confirm Gorsuch, when they didn’t have to and it didn’t actually provide any political cover. They aren’t gettable.

I am a believer in the hell world hypothesis: always expect the worse and you won’t be disappointed. Besides Manchin, Heitkamp and Donnelly would vote to strip abortion rights as it is today.

And what if, after 2018, the Republicans retain control of Congress and introduce say, a 20-week ban at the federal level, after eliminating the filibuster? It passes and is ruled constitutional by a vote of 6-3. Abortion Wars then?

As a person long-involved in peaceful anti-war protests in this country I can tell you, conclusively, that they do not accomplish much. Getting arrested while blockading some government office makes you feel like you are doing something, but once you enter the bureaucratic process of arrest, trial, and release you are…

Sorry, not sorry, but there were quite a few Obama/Trump voters in 2016.

Check back in a year when a significant percentage of those kids are still not reunited with their parents and are now wards of the state and maybe then you can make another assessment as to whether we did “pretty good” or not.

Americans are not smart, therefore, the vast majority who held negative views of Hillary, and voted accordingly did not do so because of a reasoned and informed view of her centrist, militaristic, imperial political career, but because they heard something bad about her emails at some point in 2015 and 2016.

I can’t wait for the abortion wars of 2022.

Not a full post, but probably better than 95% of all other media ever produced, by anyone.
