That is some Grade A bullshit, Ivan.

Let’s be clear: Trump nominated Nauert 75% because she’s an attractive (Fox) blonde, and 25% because “she’s been a supporter for a long time,” i.e., she’s sucked up to Trump. All of the talk about how this is consistent with some plan to minimize the UN Ambassador position is surplusage. Trump couldn’t give two shits…

Warren needs to get behind whoever is the eventual nominee and just take the CFPB job in the next administration, eventually maybe moving on to a D.C. Circuit seat (but maybe not). Everyone but her seems to know it.

You could point out that they beat Duke and Washington without their starting big man, Tilley.     They will get better when he’s back.

I think he’s maybe a 3 in the league. I’ve been watching him since he got there (my money and my kid went to Spokane) and I’m not sure what to make of him. He’s got a great motor but is still pretty raw. Came into school not speaking a word of English.

Independent redistricting panel ballot measures need to be the number one priority in every R-gerrymandered state.   Get the petitions going and get them on the 2020 ballot.  Just as Medicaid expansion ballot measures passed in blood red states like Idaho and Utah, and and independent redistricting panel measures…

My son dragged me to see this yesterday. It was easily the worst movie I’ve seen in years. Nearly claw my eyes out bad.  Slow, boring and predictable outside the fight scenes, wandering down useless side plots.  Creed himself comes across as dumb as a post.  And if Ivan Drago clearly realizes the error of his ways at…

What the hell is up with Trump’s weird forward lean?  Is it because his ass is so big that if he stands up straight he’ll tip over backward?

Also: “I’m not on the ballot, don’t look at me. Do you see my name on the ballot? No sir, you don’t. Not on the ballot. B-a-l-l-o-t. Not on it. Not my fault. Has nothing to do with me. Although if all those terrible candidates the GOP fielded had just embraced me, I mean really, really wrapped themselves around me,…

This article is like the one yesterday whining about the PSA guys’ success and alleged lack of purity. It acknowledges that most of the people opposing or potentially challenging Pelosi have their own issues, and Lee is an ally of Pelosi and already running for conference chair. Wow, 17 people signed a letter. That’s…

Funnily enough, CTH is itself a million dollar a year plus business (as, I assume, is this joint, globally). Certainly not as big as PSA, but pretty hilarious to hate on the PSA guys just because they figured out a successful formula and ran with it. Nick seems bitter.

Obligatory:

I think Collins already went along with McConnell, so Jeff’s in the clear.

Jesus, the volume of lead paint chips a large part of the population must have eaten to keep falling for this shit.

Hah..nooooo I’m older than that. Francis Peay. Who followed Denny Green, and preceded Barnett.

I’ll say it again: the alarm bells about the old adage about pictures of a dead hooker or a live boy are going off loudly with Lindsey.

All true. I like your comment that we’re not a “traditional school” but in the category of “other good schools.” Like we’re at the little kids’ table at Thanksgiving. True, but funny. When I was at NU, they ended a 30+ game losing streak, and 4-7 was enough to get the coach a multi-year extension.  

I agree with you re: their various techniques for refusing to answer questions (and the malpractice by much of the press for a long time in allowing it). However, I think the midterms have exposed Trump’s non-teflon underbelly. The election was an unmitigated disaster for the GOP, entirely because of him. Other than…

As a Northwestern alum, I’ll say that anything that gets us two more conference wins a year is fine with me.

The difference between the Whitaker thing and the vote fraud thing is:
