“It’s not the Senate’s fault that the Trump administration was not prepared and it did not have its nominees vetted, in place.”

I have a deep dislike of Marco Rubio, but I’m pleasantly surprised that he’s showing some spine with Tillerson.

Truth. Additionally, for all of Pence’s complete and utter lack of humanity, even he had a moment during the whole Pussygate fiasco where he actively considered resigning, wouldn’t support him, didn’t show up to a few events and then publically distanced himself. EVEN IF that move was 1000% about optics and had…

Because the documents exist and are being circulated amongst our intelligence agencies, executive branch and the gang of 8. In other words, it’s news.

My thing about Pence possibly taking over is that it won’t just secure the nukes. You will take out the cult leader of all of those neo-Nazis and ignorant right-wingers. Pence isn’t the one they’ve spent all this time worshipping and adoring and idealizing. Trump is. If he experiences a devastating fall from grace,…

At the end of the day, I’m just willing to not have trump with the nukes right now.

Cmon, you really think the FBI would leak unverified, possibly bogus or meaningless information about one presidential candidate days before an election? That sure would be crazy, if that was a thing the FBI ever did.

“They may very well be bullshit, but given that they being read by and presumably to some extent informing the judgments of our nation’s senior political leaders and journalists, they are clearly a matter of legitimate public interest”

To his credit Lindsey asked questions about Russia so he wasn’t nearly as bad as Hatch  

I don’t find the Clinton example ironic. I think it is correct. And, if Kushner had any relevant experience or expertise, I would not have a problem with this. The issue is not nepotism so much as lack of qualifications. He is as unqualified as a number of Trump appointees- is Bannon more acceptable because he is a…

Nothing says small government like a bunch of completely unnecessary legislation to make the lives of women and the working class more difficult! Keep living the dream Bevin and company!

These fucking idiots that voted red in Kentucky. I am laughing in your stupid fucking face right now. They just reduced the fucking minimum wage and did away with prevailing wage! There’s your republican vote in action!

Somehow, most of them haven’t found the time to complete an intensive ethics review

Trump and his team spent the morning furiously talking about Meryl Streep and how mean she is and how we should all pay attention to that.

Call your Senators, particularly if they are on the relevant committees. You can implore your Democratic Senators to stand their ground and grill the fuck out of the nominees; you can demand your Republican Senators simply agree to stall until there have been the appropriate measures taken.

This is reason #4,975 why I hate politics. If you are John McCain, just got re-elected and will probably die in office, why the fuck don’t you show any principles and say you won’t vote on anyone who hasn’t been vetted?

It’s astonishing that the far Right, formerly the most Commie-bashing group there could be, is now completely ok with their master tumbleweed cozying up to Russia. I would need weapons grade drugs to blow my mind more than the last political year has blown it.

Eh. When she and the Dems start fighting back against all this Trump bullshit we’re facing as a nation, maybe I’ll give a fuck about what she’s doing.

“Always” might be a stretch, but since the arrival of smartphones, being a fashion accessory is the only way wristwatches can survive.

So now we get product blogs and a news cycle because they made it so you can use common feature A in conjunction with common feature B with one less click? I thought filling around edges of rotated, trimmed, etc images was one of the prime use-cases of content aware fill. They just saved us a click without improving…
