This post and some of the comments aren’t quite right. Lightfoot got into the race because of her criminal justice reform credentials. She led a post-Laquan McDonald task force that laid bare the Chicago Police Department’s institutional racism, creating the blueprint for the federal Justice Department report that…

Few take him seriously, I suggest you do the same. 

This whole thing is screaming for a weekend at Bernies reboot..

If McCain is smart, he’ll find a way leverage the sympathy this whole episode has generated and parlay it into a strong 2020 primary challenge.

I couldn’t possibly give less of a fuck what Pelosi thinks. I’m not a huge fan of impeachment because strategically, at this point, it’s a horrible idea. The Senate will never vote to actually impeach him, and a failed impeachment will just give him a victory leading up the the elections that’ll rile up his base and…

BINGO!

The difference between the ACR and the other Neon models were not quite as vast as legend has it. I used to own a 98 Plymouth Neon ACR, and yes, it came from the factory with Konis stock (adjustable rebound). Beyond that, the only other factory mods were of the Colin Chapman variety - No rear window defrost, manual…

Doesn’t everyone eat sausage links with their hands?

We get it. The authors on this site don’t like any candidate other than Bernie. So that means another 1.5 years of trash talk over any of the other candidates. Yeah- real professional journalism there. And also- make sure and keep me in the greys...

New Zealander here and long time Gawker reader.This is an absolute gut-punch. The TV is saying up to 27 people shot. This stuff just doesn’t happen here. The whole country is in shock, the prime minister just spoke, she looked like a ghost. I hope this doesn’t end our innocence as a society. I hope those in a position…

Pretty sure he accidentally became president while trying to promote his new tv channel.

My wife used to work for a very prestigious medical research institute and got a masters in bioengineering from Berkeley, graduated in 2015. When she was finishing up and re-entering the job market she got so many calls from Theranos trying to convince her to come work for them. So glad she didn’t and kept a level…

This kind of sums up silicon valley.

-Someone has great idea

It’s definitely beyond me at this point. When a substantial portion of the population absolutely refuses to acknowledge evidence and reality, what recourse do we have?

This was always a favorite of mine for its arc, cleanliness, timing, and necessity. Would post a gif but Kinja

There’s so many people in your thread either completely whooshing the humor or getting offended by it....
Congrats.
