This poor girl.

These people are exhausting.

That sounds about right. I once made the mistake of trying to convince her that Donald Trump lies all the time. She demanded an example of ONE lie. I thought the easiest one was Trump’s assertion that his father was born in Germany. The birth certificate is available online and clearly shows that Fred Trump was born…

I wonder what SDNY plans to do then?  Surely they want to figure out a way to go ahead with this.  Can they stall until after January?  Can they re-file charges if Barr dismisses them?

You could have Barr chasing his own tail all day. Just send out news that indictments were coming for Trump family members, and associates, and let him waste his time chasing those down around town, then hit him with the real thing. He is such a predictable stooge.

Such a good point.  I never realized, until Trump, that our whole system of government is pretty much based on the honor system.

The thing is, if Trump were just a little less incompetent, had a little more self-control, and were able to even feign a hint of normal human empathy, we’d already be well on our way to an authoritarian dictatorship. That there is even a reasonable chance that Trump will be booted out of office after just four years…

In 6 months I’ve lost about 30 pounds through diet and exercise, but everyone where I work (a hospital) just thinks I have cancer.

I just assumed with the staged photos this was obvious?

Are you familiar with this vaudeville act / marriage?

Here’s the issue though: George and Kellyanne are not actually all that different politically. They clearly disagree about Trump and the current administration, but they are both otherwise pretty conservative Catholic Republicans and have been forever. My guess is that they agree on 98% of things and that is why their…

This. It’s kind of wild to see a bunch of folks on the left wildly cheering for George Conway just because he’s anti-Trump. Don’t get me wrong: I love the trolling coming out of Project Lincoln as much as the next socialist, but like, let’s not forget that the people pushing that would happily repeal gay marriage,…

I, too, enjoy loosely following Claudia’s antics on Tiktok and Twitter. It is pretty funny most of the time to see her 1: directly challenging her parents’ ignorant beliefs (and listen, I know we are all Team George right now bc he’s anti Trump, but George Conway has some seriously problematic, backward ass views like…

They aren’t mixed political affiliations though. They are both conservative republicans. He just doesn’t like Trump - that doesn’t make him a democrat.

I follow her on tiktok and she has been worryingly open about her mental health issues — or rather, her mental health issues are worrying, and putting them on social media when she has almost 600k followers is also worrying. She also posts thirst traps more often than I’m personally comfortable with, considering she’s…

I don’t understand what’s going on with this family at all. If George and Claudia are being genuine, why are George and Kellyanne still married? I thought maybe they were staying together for the kids, but if the kids (or at least one of them) are this adamant in their feelings about what their mother is doing, what’s…

I can’t even imagine things what things are like in the Conways’ household. It’s great to see young people standing up for what they believe in.

Well, the argument is more about the power differential than the age differential, but you’re right that this seems more benign than most such scandals.

Belief has never been all too troubled by an absence of facts. And doubly so today. I mean, where are all the tales of MS-13 today? Did they just pack it in because of the raw power of Donald Trump? (Well of course they did.)
