Congratulations, grads. You managed to take one of the more boring experiences of life (sitting and listening to people dispense mindless platitudes about life) and turn it into an exciting event filled with drama and tension. And you got to make Betsy DeVos appear deeply uncomfortable. You kids are awesome, and…

I shared this last week, but I finally decided to go to law school, got a scholarship, committed to a school, and was pretty nerve-wracked about it. I haven’t told many people yet, just close family.

Even this?

They spent the entire time trying to deflect onto “But the leaks - But Hillary’s emails - But your firing”. It was disgusting. Meanwhile, we apparently needed 3000 investigations into Benghazi to find nothing.

I hate everything.

Are you sure that wasn’t the asshole from Louisiana?

Also, despite what the media makes you believe, attorneys do not know a terrible amount of citations off the top of their heads, it is asinine to lecture her about not knowing the cite instead of just reading it to her.

There was an earlier moment in the Cruz/Yates exchange that really pissed me off and makes Yates’ response so much more delicious. Cruz asks Yates if she was familiar with 8 U.S.C. 1182 and she says “not at the top of my head, no.”

You guys. You guys.

Smart people are smart enough to know when they’re in over their head and should remain quiet.

Is it possible that Ted Cruz is not a great constitutional scholar or master debater...?

Boy, first we find out Paul Ryan isn’t a policy expert and now this. My faith in the party of Lincoln is starting to waver, guys...

She utterly destroyed Ted Cruz, which was satisfying to watch. Evidently Harvard Law and Princeton can’t teach their students common sense.

I’m sorry that you had shitty teachers.

So when are we going to ban white guys? Or husbands??

I know this story is very entertaining, but for me it raises more and more questions every time new details come out.

Sometimes I think white people are just pure sadists. I can’t understand why they hate our children so fucking much.

I personally know about a guy who didn’t have insurance because my stupid state didn’t expand Medicaid. He ignored the signs of being pretty sick because his only option was the ER and he’d already been there a lot recently and couldn’t afford it.

As GOP reps are called on to defend their votes (especially after the CBO scores the bill), I’ll bet this is not even close to the worst we hear from them. They fucked up because they needed a “win”, and now they’re going to flail about trying to explain it.

The police officer’s parents are already in the media trying to spin him as a “good father” and a “family man”, never mind that he’s divorced and has two children born within 12 days of each other by two different women.

I wish his obvious remorse (he looks like he’s been crying) was for his victim instead of his own predicament.
