I’ve said it before, and I’ll say it again: as soon as it is possible for the Democrats to do so, they should dissolve the entire Department of Homeland Security. ICE and HSI should be wholly abolished; the FBI can manage their duties from here. The Border Patrol should be placed back under the aegis of the Justice…

As a fellow “Latinx”, I agree! I understand that it’s in the Gizmodo Media Group style guide, so all the writers here are forced to use it, but holy shit is that word irritating. I live in NM, so we mostly call ourselves Hispanic anyway, but I have literally NEVER seen any person—Latino, Anglo or otherwise—use that…

Assuming he stays out of prison, where could he even live?

Thrush’s reassignment is widely seen as a demotion. So what’s telling here is that the Times considers covering essential government services for the poor of lesser importance than covering the White House.

Trump demanded to know why Comey was allowed to fly on an FBI plane after he had been fired, these people said.

We can defund, delay and/or demolish the wall just as soon as we control the Presidency again, and our prospects for 2020 are excellent in that regard. We also have a great chance of taking back the House in 2018, and the Senate is within reach by 2020 as well. The wall would be a massive, pointless boondoggle, but it…

This is actually a good idea, which is why the GOP’s friends in the telecom industry will never let it happen.

Wait, are you seriously suggesting that people go out and try to murder ICE agents? I’m all for the resistance, dude, but come on.

I’m Latino. So... no.

I, too, use “does it make the librulz mad?” as my most important (read: only) criteria for determining my opinion about a given presidential action. After all, it doesn’t really matter how corrupt, incompetent, damaging, counter-productive or outright stupid and/or evil a policy is! As long as the “president for…

Haven’t you heard? Dave Chapelle is now a Bad Man Who Is Wrong and Bad, because he told some jokes about transgender people. So even though he’s black, which buys him approximately 100,000,000 extra Justice Points, Isha now puts him on the same level as U2 (a Bad Band Which Is Wrong and Bad—because they are white).…

all these tings, lost to public record...like suds, in the tub. time to loofah falafel.

You guys remember the last shutdown, don’t you? When we were all outraged that the Republicans were using millions of federal employees as a political football, intentionally inflicting serious economic harm on all those families over some bullshit? Of course, they were trying to defund Obamacare, and we’re trying to…

I attribute it to the fact that Jeff Bezos is now the richest man in the world, which put a giant target on his back for the likes of GMG. The new Gawker Gizmodo Media Group is obsessed with virtue signaling, and there is no better way to signal one’s virtue than to trash the only man (excluding, perhaps, Vladimir…

Wow. Not a SINGLE vote, huh? That’s a bold move, Cotton...

That’s a good point, and something I hadn’t really considered. A person’s cycle can change on short notice for a lot of reasons, which might explain some of the difficulties these women had with the app.

I mean, yeah. The app uses an algorithm to track your cycles and ovulation dates over a period of months. Gradually, more days on the calendar go from red to green, which means you’re “safe” on those days. If you have a very regular cycle, as my girlfriend does, then you can say with a fair degree of certainty which…

My girlfriend uses this app to track her cycles. Part of the process includes taking your temperature with a basal thermometer every day when you wake up, which apparently improves the accuracy of the ovulation estimates tremendously. So it’s not just your average period tracker—they put considerably more thought into…

Take it from a New Mexican: this is probably not gonna happen. The Democrats control the state House and Senate, and Susanna is an extremely unpopular lame-duck governor who is term-limited for 2018. Because of her (and Trump’s) unpopularity in the state and our nearly unbroken pattern of flipping the governor’s…
