I was shocked, shocked I tell you that the fox I hired to watch the henhouse ended up eating half of them.

That’s because trump just made that term up. No one had used that term before trump created it. In fact, no one knew what God was until trump created it.

Liberty and justice for all: built on slavery.

He and his lawyer are so fucking dumb, it is amazing. Not only does he keep doing slimy shit while under investigation, his lawyer complains about his clients treatment in jail and wants he released. Then it comes out he is living pretty well for an imprisoned person, so the Judge decides to move him to the DC area.…

Tammy made the right move, risky though it is. Wisconsin desperately needs voter enthusiasm amongst progressives this year. 

Manafort’s legal team: “it’s soooo unfair, our client is locked up too far away and we can’t properly prepare under these totally unfair conditions so we should just delay these trials.”

A very nice note from Chairman Kim of North Korea. Great progress being made!

Woohoo! the UK leg of this shitshow is in full flow - and I think Trump might just have surpassed himself.

Things like private prisons are an unfortunate reminder that, even once we lose the orange turd (outside of some apocalyptic means), we still have a whole country’s worth of shit that needs cleaning and fixing beyond whatever he ruins. :/

What?

That’s... a depressingly feasible long con.

Because then we won’t know who’s using EBT cards, and how else will we judge their food selections?

I don’t quite understand why there needs to be a whole separate system to accept these payments in the first place. Why not just give them a regular credit/debit card? There are ways to set it up so it can only be used to purchase certain items or used at certain places; like those health FSA account cards. 

I have a theory that the Department of Agriculture wants to limit SNAP payments for fresh produce, in order to steer SNAP monies to processed food manufacturers, as a gift to the high fructose corn syrup people.  It’s why conservatives all thought giving the poor a box of canned goods was a dandy idea, rather than…

must be nice to have a choice. must also be nice to think you can deny others the same.

I wouldn’t put it that strongly. I do, however subscribe entirely to the rule that republicans are the party of the 1%, and Democrats the party of the 10%.

The phrase you’re looking for instead of ‘make a fuss about’ is ‘pay lip service to’. Because they don’t really make a fuss. They wait till the center (of the political divide) sits firmly over something before they actually make anything resembling a fuss.

He lives in Virginia. His kids go to school in Virginia. It would be trivial to change his residency to his real home.

I want his name-the one who wished her “Happy Mother’s Day” before abducting her child.

When affirmative action is done away with who will white kids blame for not getting into there perfered college.
