Except that these dinosaurs have a tendency to procreate and teach these small-minded views to new generations. That’s how you get people like Paul Ryan actively trying to turn back the clock on our social progress. Remember, views like this don’t develop out of a vacuum, they are taught and passed down.

This is a mistake. If the media doesn’t give her a platform, the White House will create one for her (TrumpTV) and then they will have a soapbox from which to preach their lies with no one to hold them to account. They need to book her on more shows and call her out on her special brand of bullshit every single time…

Curious, all my man card says is “See wife for info.” Have I been manning incorrectly this entire time? I’ll have to check with Mrs. Havok.

It will basically come down to him issuing an Executive Order that will give them no room to do damage control, spin. or otherwise deflect. I’ve been saying this to anyone that will listen, I think that he will eventually start to go after the 2nd Amendment. To me, that’s probably the one thing that will convince…

If Trump follows through with his plan to expand “Religious Freedom”, the remaining reasonable people of the US should form our own religion based on the concepts of respect, constitutional freedoms, belief in evolution, climate change, science, math, books, art, music, and most of all FACTS. If we file the right…

The Koch brothers sat out of the Presidential elections. They basically saw it for the dumpster fire that it was and decided to stay away from it. The group fighting border tax isn’t really a statement by them either way. This weekend they had a retreat and issued a statement directly opposing Trump’s immigration ban.…

Trump doesn’t have the full support of the Military. He cannot order US Armed Forces to march on US soil against US citizens. He doesn’t have that power. If he wanted to take over using military force, his only option would be to somehow declare martial law and federalize every state’s National Guard forces. Unless we…

As it stands, the only thing democrats can filibuster is Trump’s Supreme Court Justice nominee. That is until the the republicans change the rules so that a SCOTUS nominee can be voted in by a simple majority.

It seems that many who voted for Trump so he could get rid of “ObamaCare” didn’t realize that the ACA they got their insurance from was the same thing. That just shows how effective misinformation can be. People take advantage of the line phenomenon (where people see other people in line and as the line gets bigger,…

Clearly we live in a very divided country. Trump is widening that rift at an alarming rate. The upshot with that is that, as that divide gets bigger, more people are starting to cross over to the side of reason. And let me be clear, this isn’t about the left or right, about Republicans and Democrats. This is about…

Write to the editors of newspapers and news networks. Start petitions. Basically, do anything but stay silent. I have a feeling that Trump’s administration is generating so much noise to make it easier to drown out the truth. It has been 8 days since Trump was sworn in, how many of you are already exhausted? I can see…

His statement reminded me of this. I’m beginning to think Trump talks that way on purpose. That way, no one every really knows what he’s saying. Keeps everyone confused and off balance. But then, that might be giving way more credit than he deserves.

They should definitely keep inviting her and Kellyanne for interviews. The clip above just showed more of the same tap dance routine Trump’s talking heads have been doing since his campaign started. If media organizations stopped interviewing Trump’s people, they would have the perfect platform to cry “Look! They…

While I won’t rule out the possibility that things could get dystopian movie levels of bad, I think the more plausible outcome lies somewhere between Trump digging his own grave (figuratively) and Congress just getting tired of his shit. Since the GOP is in control of both the legislative and executive branches, they…

Action and context are two very different things. OK, you can come up with a few scenarios where grabbing a kid by the arm isn’t assault. That still doesn’t change anything. Going by Texas law, which applies here since this happened in Texas, you don’t have to cause physical injury for it to be considered assault.…

I see two different scenarios unfolding in Washington:

I’m not missing your point, I’m dismissing it.

Actually, it is assault. At least according to Texas law it is.

This is a very binary issue. There are 2 sides and one of them is wrong. First, grabbing someone else’s kid by the arm or the neck is assault on a minor. Whether or not it was “choking” is what the courts are for. Unless the kid was attacking the man, he should have never laid a finger on him. The cop made up his mind…

I’m surprised that I haven’t seen much coverage on his use of Executive Orders. From what I have read, all of the orders are being written by Steve Bannon and Stephen Miller without consulting anyone else. They are drafting and executing the orders at break-neck speed. As a comparison, Obama’s administration would…
