Much like the insistence that it’s grossly unfair to ask men to cook, clean or care for their children, because their poor little brains can’t handle it, but somehow they’re perfectly capable of running companies and countries.

Color me

Darling it’s not an either or situation! They are utterly incompetent AND entirely racist.

Even better, this is the literal definition of a 1st amendment violation. A member of government wants to punish a citizen for her opinion.

Here I thought that the right was obsessed with free speech when it involved nazis and people like milo whatever his name is but calling trump a white supremacist is a bridge too far. And they say we’re the snowflakes

Except for the fact that our policies and actions over the last few decades are directly responsible for those people being refugees in the first place.

Even if you could somehow remove the other context (like, for example, that Jamele Hill was absolutely correct), this is the White House press secretary openly calling for a private organization to fire a journalist for criticizing the President. That is fucking insane.

Short of seeing a mushroom cloud while looking out my bedroom window when I get up in the morning, there just isn’t any bottom to this shit show is there?

Trump also said it was his favorite uncle. Not sure what he meant by that.

The democrats: hey, guys, we have had all these ideas about how to help you from the beginning, from years ago. We lowered the uninsured rate by ourselves despite the fact that it turned out to be political suicide. We have other ideas, here is a list of ideas Hillary has ideas.

Here’s a mind blowing concept: What if wages had been keeping up with the cost of living over the past 20 years and you wouldn’t need two incomes to even be considered lower middle class?

The fact that citizens have to donate to disaster relief and medical bills for their friends and strangers is proof that we’ve regressed back to “alms for the poor” medieval standards of social safety net. Protecting citizens from acts of god (both by setting risk-mitigating standards before

Even traditional Medicare leaves 20% of the bill to be paid by someone else, often a private insurance company. That’s not a single payer system.

We need to get our collective vocabulary straight to have a comprehensive discussion on this.

When you open a business you agree, in return for some serious financial and legal protections from the state for being a business not to mention enjoying the benefits that every taxpayer in society (even the gays) paid to create (roads, police protection, fire protection, etc...) that supports their business, to

Dear wedding cake bakers and florists:

This is a very accurate and cheerful summary. Making a deal without having to give any concessions is a good thing. Taking advantage of an egomaniac is a good thing. Learning relatively quickly how to take advantage of an egomaniac is a good thing.

I still don’t think she’s going to doom 2018 the way some progressives on the internet want her to. Clinton beat Trump by 3 million votes, and who leads the Democratic Party isn’t going to factor into most elections. These are the same progressives who’ll go out of their way to paint anything the Democratic Party does

They didn’t unleash him. He defeated them. He took out a dozen awful, but far more qualified candidates and the party reluctantly supported him through the election.

I am so enjoying the GOP realising what they unleashed just doesn’t care about them at all.
