I wouldn’t be surprised if Biden reached out to the McCains.

Could this explain his strange questioning during the Comey hearing?

Colloodling?

Of course he did. Putin may not be the Bond-level super villain he is often made out to be. But he’s an experienced pro. And when your opponent is as weak as Trump, the game is easy.

He ought to be: 25% of Nevada’s budget is Medicaid reimbursement and once you leave the Vegas Metro area you’re hard pressed to find a local doctor for a mining town in the middle of nowhere.

I found this online as a way to reach him:

Like a lot of moderates, he gave a heartfelt statement about how concerned he was about the bill, how he was against harming good, hardworking Americans, and didn’t want Medicaid harmed. Then he met with Sheldon Adelson (gazillionaire casino mogul and huge Republican donor) and has been conspicuously quiet lately.…

There’s a really good article on WP today about a Muslim doctor in rural Minnesota who’s reluctantly giving talks about Islam to the mainly Trump-voting, Christian population who largely get their ideas of Islam from FOX. It’s an excellent piece, but this part jumped out at me:

When I was a kid I thought I had to wash all over with soap...and all I ever got from that was dry, itchy skin. At some point in my lazy late teen years I just started hitting the possible smelly parts and my lifelong itchiness went away. 

I GOT INTO GRAD SCHOOL HOLY SHIT I’M GOING TO LONDON IN SEPTEMBER!!!!

Have you seen most American conservatives? There’s not much to work with in that group. It’s not like any of them were ever a young Sanders, Biden, or Obama. Or Kennedy. Or Booker.

I wonder when the GOP voters and Trump supporters that won’t be benefitted by a tax credit will realize that this will fuck them over. They’ll probably hear “tax credit” and say “hey, free money!” Until reality hits later on...

It is so maddening that a tax credit is supposed to help pay for things. I make so little a tax credit will do zero to help me. It’s such a privileged political ploy.

Are these children going to be in protective custody organized through state CPS systems? If so, the Texas state system, which I imagine would be a major provider, is in shambles, with over 100 children dying in protective care last year. This is cruelty and incompetence at its lowest level, and is creating a very…

Those are not swimsuits.

I personally am praying for Harris-Duckworth.

I also want SNL to start having more female comedians play the roles of Trump’s (mostly white male) administration. There’s no doubt that sexism was a huge undertone of this last election. And so there’s no doubt that THAT would reeeeally get under Trump’s skin.

Ollie’s headed to the White House. Pussy’s about to grab back.

I pity the satirists whose jobs are being overtaken by reality.
