God fucking dammit. Of all trump’s shit, his bullshit fucking judges are the thing that will haunt us for years.

So what you are saying is they Don’t Speak?

The decision is the “will of the American people.”

Well WHY ELSE am I full of despair on a daily basis??

Yes SE MN here: If Dayton appoints Smith Dems will destroy each other for the seat and it will go red.

Minnesota was a caucus, which is exclusive to party members and has a high participatory cost that turns off most voters (which is why they have substantially less voters than actual primaries). In short, it’s disenfranchising, and by no means a solid sample of the electorate — not by a long shot.

St. Cloudian-ish here!

Yes! And Ellison wouldn’t have a prayer outside the metro areas. Omar doesn’t have enough experience, even for me. Betty McCollum is as dumb as a rock-sorry, but I can’t see her as a senator. Attorney general Lori Swanson would be great, and would probably do well outstate too, but I think she wants to run fr…

In the meantime, Minnesotans will likely have Smith, whose lack of future political ambitions will hopefully create an even pitch upon which future candidates can battle for the seat.

Your analysis of Minnesota politics is just dead wrong. It is strongly blue in the Twin Cities metro area and around some of the larger small cities, Duluth for example.

His most famous movie (in my heart and my loins):

Excuse me, no. Little Women is Professor Bhaer’s most famous film.

This is what being an ally looks like! Thank you, John Oliver, for using your privilege to hold Hoffman accountable. For any men wondering ‘what do I do’, this is it. You speak up and don’t let abusers get away with idiotic responses.

I’ve run out of ways to say I hate this man. I hate this man.

“Inside a few weeks I’ll be running this circus. Just keep watching, Finger. Keep. Watching...”

John motherfucking McCain is on my last goddamn nerve. This is the same guy who refused to vote for the Bush tax cuts because they too heavily favored the rich, but he’s fine with this bill, which is even MORE heavily slanted to them. Mr. Maverick who vocally stood up in opposition to the ACA repeal bill because it…

Same. This week has felt especially awful. Probably the worst since the election for me. I feel like I need one of those boundless voids like Janet has in the good place, just pop in for a bit and recharge.
