Well, early on, at least as far as DeVos’ confirmation is concerned, 2 GOP senators have claimed to flip their votes (both of whom have tough re-elections in 2018). While that creates a tie (with the tie-breaker going to Pence), it has also shifted focus to two other GOP senators in similar spots, who couldn’t…

Kellyanne Conway is her own worst enemy, and it’s glorious. Between the ineptitude of this administration, the sudden arrival of what appears to be spines among the house and senate democrats, and seeing the toll that all the phone calls, texts, emails, and faxes are taking on the GOP weasels, there have been some…

March for Science is April 22!
