The 20 minutes of explanation served a purpose. Knocking down every rationale they’ve given for not releasing them matters. As does explaining why any tax returns from Trump are important to the public interest, because that helps short circuit the ‘zomg illegal leakz’ arguments that are inevitable.

Liberals keep dreaming of this magic bullet, this shocking revelation that will spur protective governmental action that’s going to somehow make it all better. They still think Trump is an aberration instead of the natural result of our system and the way both parties have developed over the last several decades, and…

I don’t think pointing out potential conflicts of interest and reasons why knowing Trump’s sources of incomes are now of national interest is “dithering about nothing.”

When I can’t use a coupon I brought to the store, I tuck it into the shelf in case someone else comes by who can use it. I call myself the Coupon Fairy.

I like to think I’d do the same thing with hundred-dollar bills, but let’s be real. Someone else would be doing my grocery shopping.

I’d tell you what I’d be moving up from the store brand mustard.

David Cay Johnston low key DRAGGED Trump in the best way ever. “I mean he prolly leaked his own wife’s nudes” is a sick fucking burn. Me:

And the opening about being “desperate for ratings” is a giveaway too. No one is as obsessed with ratings as he is.

Y’all know damn well Trump wrote that pathetic statement. “Totally illegal” my fucking ass

not even real faux palm plants, they painted them on the fucking wall.

Would no posts at all be better? Asking seriously.

;)

So it would be totally normal for me to take a trip to NYC just for this, right?

Unclear.

I’ve been reading more about them both because I was confused as to why there would be such division over two good progressive candidates.

You do realize Ellison said he was going to resign his seat right? Also, when you’re in the straits the Democrats are, rebuking the future of your party and your movement seems short-sighted.

A Setback= losing a life-and-death election to a respected candidate from the other party. Absolute Defcon 6: Losing to the most unpopular president since they’ve started polling on such things, losing the House and the Senate, and being at a deficit in governors and state legislatures (including every single…

“Someday they’re going to study this era of American history,” Perez said following his victory. “They’re going to ask the question of all of us: Where were you in 2017, when we had the worst president in the history of the United States?

I’m not sure what’s worse. The fact that Perez is now the new chairman of the DNC or the fact that there are rumors that Clinton is thinking of running again in 2020. The Dems have learned nothing.

I want to laugh in the faces of every fellow white person who voted Trump who’s now like “....I didn’t think he was gonna actually do [insert thing that Trump said exactly that he was going to do once he was President here].” Repeal the ACA that’s brought you health insurance, take away any shred of regulation in the…

It seems to me that many white men find the idea of privilege to be offensive to their sense of fairness. If you’re taught implicitly by society that everything goes both ways and everyone is created equal... and you just happen to dominate as a group, the suggestion that you are benefiting from conditions that you…
