It’s THE lesson I hope all Democratic politicians have learned going forward: you cannot base your actions on how you think the Republicans are going to respond; you cannot modulate what you do out of fear they might attack or misinterpret if you do the “wrong” thing; you cannot try to predict their response in…

That’s the problem with hitching your wagon to a carnival barker like Trump - eventually he’s gonna get run out of town, and they’re gonna be left holding the bag.

I’d say bring it on but it’s not like they will have the balls to fight a fair fight. No, they’ll just start bombing federal buildings ala McVeigh like the fucking cowardly terrorists they are.  

L’esprit de l’escalier, eh? I wouldn’t have thought of that one immediately either. I did think of these on the spot:

Yeah, it’s extremely hard to find good faith in Tucker Carlson’s argument that she should have “shut down” that person when, at literally this very moment, a conservative troll is taking Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez to court because she shut said troll down by blocking them on Twitter. So, just for the scorekeepers, when…

“probably immediately respond with a quip like ‘well, that certainly seems like a Modest Proposal, we’ll give that some thought’”

Yeah, if the Republicans don’t get their shit together and do something about this, we really need to dismantle the system of winner take all elections and go to a proportional system.  Because if anything, Trump’s presidency has shown us so far that the two party system created by SMDP representation is a disaster…

So clear he didn’t want any that he went and basically straight up asked for one on an official recorded and now public phone call. If it wasn’t for the sky high stakes in all of this(the Ukraine and Russia conflict, abuse of power, election interference, impeachment proceedings, etc...) then it would be comical.

I feel like maybe he should avail himself of readily accessible knowledge pertinent to the case over which he’s presiding, and if he feels unable to do that, perhaps he should retire. Technology is increasingly involved in our interactions with each other, and consequently, our litigations. And Twitter is hardly new.…

It sounds like the judge should try being a woman for a week. He might figure it out. I’m 58 years old. For the most part I look 58 years old. I’m physically disabled. Yesterday I was at Costco and got a hotdog when I was done shopping. I sat at the first table to eat, and parked my cart at the end of the table. A guy…

From 10:30 of the video, accuser responding about how much he got paid:

I don’t think I’ll ever get over Macho Grande....

The question is, which Chumbawumba song was it?  Oh, wait.

Just sent $50 more to Warren. Hell, yes. This is the best revelation ever: Elizabeth Warren fucks. You are damn straight it fucking slaps. 

I would really love to live in a world where at the end of the season both of those teams are 0-15-1

Particularly if that health insurance is provided by the insurance company the hospital owns or is owned by.

A lot of younger doctors are also still fresh off their suffering through residencies (a time in which they tend to be short on money) and student loans. It’s no surprise they’d have some modicum of empathy for people who can’t pay for things - chances are they’ve been in that position. My cousin is a nurse and the…

He will almost definitely be impeached. It remains unlikely he’ll be removed by the Senate.

If she truly felt sorry she would have plead guilty and we wouldn’t have had to endure this trial. She’s only feeling “sorry” now that she lost her case.

God, hearing him talk makes my skin crawl.
