Bogut is despicable for this. BUT, I was pissed when that (I think it turned out to be fake but too lazy to check) story about Jerry Jones telling his players not to kneel before the anthem went around. If I think it’s wrong for owners to tell players not to protest, speak out, etc., I think it’s wrong even when they…

But didn’t you see Ronin? DeNiro’s actually in the CIA (still is in Meet the Parents, so it’s gotta be true). So I think he’s a double agent in Wag the Dog, right?

In the last three elections the GOP has won 4% more House seats than House votes. Where you put the voters matters.

What if we yell (truthfully, to be fair) “they did it first!” and then hold our breath.

Well, it would be nice if our justice system worked worth a damn, as it’s hard to give people their actual rights one season of a podcast or one documentary at a time.

There has been more of these kind of deaths with rear facing car seats, though we bought mirrors that let us see them and I too look at my kids way too much. I wonder if that’s actually less safe...

I think the only disagreement here is that none of us has seen that video. I’m guessing it’s either clear or it isn’t that he stopped and looked in the window. That’s where there’s room for reasonable doubt. I’m willing to trust a jury on this one if that was shown at trial.

And yet racist assholes lost their mind over it. I fear you might be missing the forest here.

Does she not find it a little fucked up to accuse an autistic guy of using autism as an insult? She’s basically saying that he’s a bad guy based on assuming there’s something insulting about the disorder the guy she wants to sue has. That’s a special kind of prejudice against a disabled person, isn’t it? “how dare…

his “infrastructure spending” is just tax breaks for projects that were going to happen anyway and some funding for private public partnerships. Your instinct is right, what he proposes is not helpful and is a handout.

Trump answered. It’s the Chinese. Despite the fact that they found out about it from G.H.W. Bush.

Sadly, industry actually seems to be backing off a lot of this shit but the base bought it so thoroughly that the pols can’t back off it yet.

GOP policy wonkery boils down to one overriding lie: you don’t have to do anything, the less you do, the better everything will get. Don’t tax anyone, don’t regulate anyone, don’t educate anyone, Jesus and the free market has it all taken care of, just sit back and get all fucking freedomy.

Thanks, I thought so! Every time we break a record, it’s a Big Thousand-Year Event, and then— we break the record again the following year.

You could actually bookmark it, you just click the three dots at top right on the comment, select go to permalink, and then bookmark the page it takes you to. I hope I’m not coming off like a snarky dick suggesting this since your comment may have just been a hyperbolic compliment, I was just surprised that it was…

Re: impeachment, I think having violated the Cuban embargo has no statute of limitations and is impeachable. The problem is the GOP house has no balls and know his approval ratings are higher than theirs. There’s plenty that’s sufficient to impeach, but until he’s a political liability, or until the Dems take both…

You aren’t going to try to argue that mistreating sexual assault victims is something the Catholic church would never do, are you?

I didn’t think it was possible for someone to look at the two sides of the amateurism debate and pick an incoherent mix of them. If you think school, room and board are their “pay”, you do buy the amateur “angle”. If you think that those qualify as pay, then the players have an FLSA lawsuit for not being paid…

This fucktard owns a property in Florida that was once intended to be the “southern White House” — why doesn’t he use that? He’d even be in a state that actually wanted him.

I thought that last line said:
