So, FEMA botched the preparedness and the response?
I love how his use of Russia as the exemplar of despotism is so fortuitously fitting for the current moment.
I am not a Know-Nothing. That is certain. How could I be? How can any one who abhors the oppression of negroes, be in favor of degrading classes of white people?

Logan, in particular, was about facing mortality and reckoning with a life’s work and purpose. I don’t know what could be more human than that.
Comicvention is really terrible.
