Mitch McConnell makes a mockery of decency, fair play and the United States Constitution. And, of course, soup.

At this point, the Democrats’ reservations about protecting the integrity of the system are fantasies. The system has already been broken. A respectful retreat to the rules that were in place in 2015 would be meaningless and futile.

I said before on here (I think) that my boss is very much a reagan conservative, into a strong dept of defense...I was debating with him about how the DoD literally wasted like $15 trillion due to shitty accounting over the course of two decades, and he replied with “that’s ok, because they work on top secret stuff. …

Well, Betsy here was born into one billionaire family and married into another. She got chauffeured this far in life.

Married to a teacher. Granddaughter of a DAMN fine teacher for 45 years. Many family members also teachers at various levels. Let me just say 1) This woman is a disgrace. 2) Thank you for all your hard work.

They like unborn children.

Fuck her. The lack of decency in so many people appointed to high power positions is mind boggling, disgusting, and plain unfair. DeVos is the unhinged, morally bankrupt, evil villain in a teenage dystopian horror novel. How do such depraved people get this far in life? The fact that she hasn’t suffered for her public…

As a teacher, this, out of all of Trump’s horrific appointments, has stung the most. Imagine if this person and her family had donated that bribe money to public education what could have been accomplished.

I wouldn’t count on her being incompetent, if I were you. Unfortunately.

I don’t know....look at Detroit.

I’m not 100% sure we’re going to have the luxury of existence for three more generations, but I like your optimism.

In the conversations about the risks Trump poses to women, religious and ethnic minorities, LGBTQ people, and the non-wealthy, we haven’t paid nearly enough attention to the utter devastation that is about to descend on public school students. This woman is as terrifying as any other nominee he’s put forth.

Rember folks, this pasty weasel believes in repealing child labor laws! She wants to go back to the days of children in coal mines! Honestly, that bothers me more than money. How morally bankrupt can you be?

Well, great. God, we are fucked. And we’re probably going to be cleaning up this mess for the next three generations.

I really loved her character. You assume at first she’ll be like the oblivious 80's mom stereotype but I loved when she tried to tell Nancy that she could trust her about the new boyfriend. I thought she did really well as a mom who was really trying her best to connect to her teenage daughter and her son. I felt for…

I loved the difference between Mike’s mom and dad. His mom was slightly clueless but knew something was weird, and very invested in all of her children. The dad was wrong about literally everything. Everything that man said was 100% false. I also loved how he was sleeping through a bunch of important scenes.

That had me unabashedly weeping. It was so pure mother. A kind of love and comfort that El had never known, even in the middle of all this.

Cara Buono also nails breaking the trope as Nancy and Mike’s seemingly overprotective and clueless mom. She only really gets two scenes to shine through with her handling of Mike’s ‘grief’ and confronting Nancy after she knows what happened at the party.

The scene with the pool was absolutely heartbreaking. Wanting so badly to know what was going on with Will, but being so caring and concerned with Eleven. It was my favorite scene of the whole series.

I was also taken by the way she gives Eleven so much love and support, kindness the girl had never had, and she gave that love so freely that it played very realistically. I was touched by the way that all the adults, the teacher, the mom, the sherrif, all were really good people that were totally trustworthy. Mike’s…
