What percentage of the shitheads who work in the five plants that are closing who voted for Trump will admit that they fucked up and voted against their own self-interests? Is it none?

If she falls in the forest, does she make a sound? And does she need to be raked up?

I think Colburn should do an on-air demonstration, to show how safe and tasty it is.

“...Gillibrand, painting her as “duplicitous” and “opportunistic.””

Could be, could not be... we’ll see how it develops. If true, though, it wouldn’t be a major loss.

I hope this means we’ll never have to hear about Avenatti 2020 ever again.

This guy being a giant skeeve was obvious to me and the collective crush on him here was so fucking weird.

It’s great that turnout was higher than it has been in a long time, but it’s still depressing on so many levels that it’s still less than half. 

She was a grown woman deemed intelligent enough to score an internship at the White House.

I’m more interested in the Democrats demonization of Pelosi.

She’s an extremely competent, Older, Democratic woman. Have they ever needed anything more?

Um, I think Nancy Pelosi should be Speaker because... she’s fucking good at her job?

She’s the right person for the job right now. I have a record of encouraging the party to promote younger people, particularly for the 2020 Presidential. But the job of Speaker (when performered properly, as she did 2007-2011) is managerial, and she’s an excellent administrator/delegator.

“Pelosi, meanwhile, in a speech on election day and the day after, called for bipartisanship, unity, and the need to ‘seek common ground’”

I saw and responded to something that ties into this beautiful ode to this cool guy. The AVClub was asking about favorite Stan Lee characters. And sure, you had heaps of praise towards Spiderman, but one comment pointed out Stan Lee’s vision of Captain America. Before Lee Captain America punched Nazis and was a huge

Policy time = talking to Sean Hannity

RBG broke three ribs and went home to sleep it off. Fat Donnie couldn’t attend a memorial service for our honored dead because it was drizzling rain. And he thinks he’s tough.

My only takeaway from this article is that The Notorious RBG looks better in lace gloves than Madonna.
