I’m in a bad place and started to comment then deleted it because you probably shouldn’t post when angry, but fuck it. My co-worker just found out his 14 year old daughter was raped by her step-dad on May 3rd and he’s plunged head-first in to obtaining custody of her. Not sure why it took the court system 12 days for…

True.  Maybe if she keeps this beautiful shit up, things will change. I’ve been concerned about her chances in the general election, but she’s been whittling away at that concern and things like this help.

Good for her! Enough with this “ gotta hear both sides” nonpartisan horseshit. She’s not going to change anybody’s mind with the Fox viewing audience; those people are, for all intents and purposes, gone and they are never coming back

great, another movie for rick moranis to not appear in despite me wanting it really badly.

This looks like a still from the next Jordan Peele movie.

Well, admittedly it’s partly because the Democratic Party is an entirely different party than the Republican Party. The Democrats have to care about facts, because facts determine whether or not you have actually served your constituent interests, which Democrats at least nominally try to do.

It’s not that Democrats don’t have good messaging skills. Made me think of this phrase:

B-b-but what about my stocks?! How will I buy my yacht... I mean, how will I create jobs??!

How about we apply this approach to basically every political subject? How about we stop being scared of how some right-wing fucking chud reacts when we tell them they’re wrong? How about we own that socialistic mechanisms aren’t a bad thing?

Fox Nazi teevee never fails to lower the bar.

As bullshit as her interjection was, it’s proof positive that going after these people’s advertisers works. Her saying:

...moderate Democrats either justified that fear or pivoted to pointing out Trump’s relationship with that classic socialist Vladimir Putin...

If the GOP keeps telling people that socialists want to give you healthcare, tackle the environment, and tax the hell out of corporations, it’s going to end well for the socialists because not every one is a craven GOP voter.

The committee doesn’t need to be ready for quite some time; districts don’t get redrawn until after the Census data comes out, and that will be in 2021 in time for the 2022 elections. But the SoS has already laid out the schedule. Searches for applicants begin this year, and I believe it will be sat next year to start…

Gerrymandering has become an issue across the country since the 2018 midterms, when several states voted for redistricting. Missouri, for example, voted overwhelmingly for redistricting by a nonpartisan commission. Now Republicans in the state are attempting to undo the initiative. Utah also passed a ballot measure

You could have offered most kids a piece of gum and they would have done this.

If knew a kid who was chosen to be a part of this briefing I would have promised him or her a pizza party, a trip to Disney World, a new car and would pay for their college education if he or she asked “Sarah, why are such a lying piece of shit?”
