I have no love for Comey but trump firing the head of the FBI while being investigated by the FBI is very troubling. I believe the last president who did this was Nixon so...

The most hilarious thing about Ted Cruz defending the Muslim ban is that for decades, and I literally mean decades, Ted Cruz has bragged about how he has the Constitution memorized.

One of these people understands the law and Constitution and how it should work in the modern world. And is doing her patriotic duty defending these things.

Back in College I had an Anthro professor who was just an adjunct. The entire department were pretty heavy activists. This Professor focus was on Hispanic LGBT community and AIDS.

Does the unemployed person in Chicago suddenly packs up his bags and moves to North Dakota because “I hear there is jobs out there”

She did eleborate her plans. Her website had them in full details, she explained everything she planned to do step by step.

Their concern is to put food on the table, so they voted for the candidate that vowed to destroy the social safety net that provides food stamps. Makes sense.

A huge mass of people in Detroit did exactly that when the auto industry moved South. Nobody’s saying it’s easy; we’re saying why do the coal workers get to sit tight and demand the jobs come to them, when the rest of us have to move to Tennessee or wherever?
