If you have the authority to impose a deadline on someone to respond to someone (whether as a litigant, a government agency or body, or whatever), and someone misses that deadline, a court is not going to look on you favorably if as soon they miss that deadline you run into court and file a motion for contempt or to…

There is no reason to be “civil” with these traitors.

1879 anti-Semitic acts in 2018 would suggest they are a daily occurrence.

“I haven’t studied it,” he continued. “And I think it’s a mistake to get caught up in statistics when we are talking about — thank God — a series of events that are not yet becoming a daily occurrence.”

Yes, in this deeply corny joke, Barr was the no-show chicken, and Cohen proceeded to munch on it.

I live in Florida (Jacksonville of all places...) and am friends with teachers who work at both public and private schools (they play D&D with me).

Excellent.

The thousands upon thousands of deaths and ruined lives is what industries “self-regulating” looks like.

Draconian? Yep. But how frickin dumb do you have to be to try to get weed through an airport security checkpoint in something disguised to look like something else they wouldn't let you through with anyway? That's like trying to smuggle a crack pipe that looks like a gun.

To be fair it is still a dangerous substance that can cause real health problems to people so it’s understandable that authorities would want to investigate and punish people for its use.

I’m sure when I’m an old man and time has passed enough, the history books are going to likely just be fucking SAVAGE to the current GOP.

Like, if the American Experiment fails, there is a clear line from 1994 and Newt to this and beyond.

Still, despite blatantly accusing Barr of being a criminal, Pelosi stopped short of actually calling for his imprisonment or impeachment, saying instead that “There’s a process involved here,” adding “the committee will act upon how we will proceed.”

Say hello to the next Secretary of Transportation:

Anytime any Trump nominee withdraws for some heinous shit that has surfaced/been made public, I always immediately think “well, there must be a SHIT TON MORE heinous things that we don’t know about.”

Hold Barr in contempt of Congress now. This is a critical juncture. Dude just spat in the eye of the checks and balances of the legislative branch. The Constitution enshrines the right of the House to subpoena people and waste their time in testimony on many issues. This is not debatable.

Move to contempt/impeachment proceedings against Barr, or it’s all fucking theater (not that it isn’t anyway, but god damn—do your fucking jobs for a change).

And that KFC bit is getting some serious play over on CNN right now. In the age of bread and circuses, the elected Representative with the wit and humor of the…

Forget that nonsense. The high road is all well and good when your opponents are willing or able to join you on it. But for the current GOP that entirely lacks shame, compassion, or human decency, that is no longer the case.

That is what cost Hillary in 2016. Michelle Obama was full of shit, when they go low, you fight back because bullies never expect nor can handle being hit back with equal force. 

Meanwhile on the other side of the aisle;
