That is certainly true in a lot of cases. But with this repeal of Obamacare, they were quite upfront with saying it was too expensive and had to go. And if they kicked millions of people off health insurance, then hey, it was a win because the government was spending less on people’s insurance and keeping more money…

Sure, but lots of countries have had “enemies.” That hasn’t lead them to pursue campaigns against human rights in their own countries. In Canada, abortion is never on the ballot, because our Supreme Court has declared access to abortion/contraception a fundamental human right, and NO POLITICIAN, regardless of party,…

I don’t understand the American two-party system. How can you have one party in favour of every single thing a liberal democracy stands for: human rights, civil rights, equality and fairness (judicial, social, and regulatory), basic human freedoms, access for all to health and prosperity, safe workplaces,…

You’re assuming the next bill they pass won’t be the indefinite suspension of further elections.

This whole thread is funny to me, because Margaret Atwood actually wrote a short story called “Rape Fantasies,” in which her narrator shamefully confesses to having fantasies about things like, for example, being cornered in a dark alley at night by a handsome stranger who ravishes her despite her protests... the…

It actually DOES exist, just not an app! Back in the 90's, my mother bought her friend a keychain as a joke. The keychain was a small voice recorder, branded as a “memory aid.” The way it worked was, you parked your car, pushed the button on the voice recorder keychain and explained where your car was parked. Then you…

Ok, I know not EVERYTHING should be looked at through the feminazi lens of gender politics.... but no way would he EVER have the stones to do that to a male leader.

Disagree. With all the outcry and public interest in his tax returns, actually obtaining part of one IS news, and it’s certainly not “nothing.” Just because it doesn’t say anything explosive doesn’t mean it’s of no interest. And with the interest generated by the segment, I can’t fault her for giving a quick recap of…

It’s not just Girl Guides. Our school districts as well are calling off trips to the U.S. And it’s not just paranoia or solidarity, we are actually getting stories in our newspapers on a near-daily basis about Canadian citizens denied entry at the border, often just for having an unusual name or “Middle Eastern”…

I doubt it’s the gay issue. I imagine Putin is just threatened by Gaston’s raw masculinity.

Why does this man continue to find work? BECAUSE PEOPLE KEEP PAYING TO SEE HIS MOVIES! Want him to go away forever? Never give projects that benefit him one dime of your money. Hollywood won’t stop making terrible decisions (hiring bigots, whitewashed casting, etc) until it is no longer profitable for them and not a…

That’s exactly right. I’m mad at journalists who keep taking the bait. And I’m mad at her for being so GOOD at derailing interviews, and I’m mad at us all for falling into her trap, and I’m mad at all the other news sites I’m looking at today that seem to have abandoned the “Trump vs. Nordstrom” feud in favour of this…

Honestly, I am so sick of these stories. Why does the media, including Jez, keep playing right into her hands? She is a despicable human being, yes, but she sure is damn good at her job. The PRESIDENT of the UNITED STATES enacts a morally bankrupt and probably unconsititutional Muslim ban that is being used to deport…

Can’t wait to read her book. I hope she makes a cartoon adaptation so that Trump can understand it.

Yeah... Actually, when you put it that way, I think that’s kinda what I mean. Kellyanne doesn’t MEAN any of this, she’s just BS’ing her way out of the terrible things her boss says. It SUCKS to watch her get pounced upon over and over again for things TRUMP said, because she doesn’t actually believe in anything Trump…

I know she’s a monster, but I can’t help but feel pitifully sorry for her. Having to go on national TV (practically beg them to have her on, now) so she can get repeatedly scolded and dressed-down for her boss’s ignorant and offensive remarks. (With, of course, a little bit of time dedicated to HER terrible…

Yeah, this is the problem with “life” begins at conception... of course it does! We’re talking about living organic tissue here! Technically, life was present BEFORE conception, because a living sperm wriggled its way into a viable egg! But that life is not a person, or a distinct being, it’s just a glob of living…

Thank you! I find the fact that both these items are in the same article distasteful, and even more so, the fact that the comment section’s defense of Amy Schumer seems to be more or less “I’d do her.” There is a point here, and if we all keep looking hard enough, we might just find it!

At the top of this article, a d-bag is rightly criticized for his judgments about Amy Schumer’s looks w/r/t a movie role. At the bottom of the article, John Krasinski’s looks are criticized w/r/t a movie role. Be the change, please, Jezebel.
