Over in State Propaganda-land:

Comey needs to sing. Comey needs to go full em’effin Pavarotti.

I think we clearly need a crossover episode of LSB and RPDR.

Exactly. Like, we couldn’t even get a public option, but people are blaming Obama for not going single payer? Are you fucking kidding me? I do get tired of people acting like we can wave a magic wand and change everything overnight.

Matt Yglesias from Vox had a good point - the French election more or less showed the limits of an extreme candidate’s viability without the backing of the establishment. Let us never forget that good ol’ Drumpf got to where he is in part due to the cowardice and craven nature of the Republican establishment.

I knew something was REALLY up when Joe got divorced in 2013 and then Mika last year. I just figured they were boning, which is why both of the marriages broke up.

I would love to exist in your universe where Joe Fucking Lieberman, I-CT, could be convinced to vote for Medicare For All.

Wisdom is relevant-being unnecessarily cynical isn’t. I’m very very concerned about the resurgence of acceptable racism in politics. I’m black. I live in America. Our racist candidate won. Do not try to tell me that I don’t think actively countering this crap is important or relevant.

There’s no need to be patronizing. It’s concerning that she got any of the vote but I’m wholly unsurprised. White people are quite reliably racist.

Turnout may have been low by French standards, but a 65% turnout would be considered amazingly high here in the USA.

I get it, but most American voters chose Clinton and I will not have the voice of the people erased! Our system can suck all the dicks, tho.

Vive le France! We drove the Nazis out 72 years ago. No way in hell are they coming back.

Le Pen isn’t done and the ideology that got her this far isn’t done. Good job France, but don’t forget that she got a third of the vote and set a record amount of results for the far right. For now though:

Suuuuuuuuuuuuuck iiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiit, Nazi fucks.

Chris Pine has had my heart since this:

I made a gif for anyone interested:

As I say in every Morning Joe post, AND I WILL UNTIL MY DEMANDS ARE MET, send Joe and Mika off the MSNBC farm up state to “retire”, and give me Morning Joy with Joy Reid and Nicolle Wallace.

I wish I were half as smart as Hillary Clinton. I am pretty smart, but god damn.

It doesn’t hurt that Clinton and Richards are about 19x smarter than anyone else in the room.
