I’ve seen my dad cry maybe 3 times in my life. He choked up on the phone the other night when commenting he thought that he’d never see this kind of ugliness again in his lifetime. That’s probably partially his straight white male privilege talking. But it was still pretty heartbreaking. The good news is that a lot of

This would have meant a lot more in November, before it was already happening.

Tonight when I heard this news, my mind immediately went to the Saturday Night Massacre. But things generally happened at a much slower pace back. It was more of a drawn out ordeal. It’s interesting to note that it was the Saturday Night Massacre that really spurred the calls for Nixon’s impeachment.

O’Reilly is a pretty canny fucker, though. He knows that he’ll look better for pulling out his humanitarian Catholic “high road” card than doubling down on this dumpster fire ban.

Dissent is patriotic. This is a democracy. Sorry, Mr. Trump and the sfgate Konservative Klowns posting on this board; the United States is not your personal enterprise. We are a multi tiered democracy, right down to the citizenry.

No, it’s really worse. At least back then we could trust most of the conservative party to respect the law, and put nation over party.

You say that...but according to Trump, if you don’t fall in line theres the door:

BILL O’REILLY said that?! Jesus, now I know I’m in fucking Bizarro World.

An astute point from The Intercept’s Washington editor: Trump had to skip over three other US Attorneys to get to one he liked.

If it wasn’t clear before, it’s time to go absolutely bonkers on Sessions. If it means filibustering risking the GOP going nuclear, so be it. Trump has already gone nuclear and it hasn’t even been a week. And, if they do that, then the Dems should just walk out the Senate chamber onto the front steps of the Capitol.

I bet Trump wishes he also had the power to fire Bill O’Reilly now:

This makes it nearly impossible to spin the Sessions vote as anything other than a referendum on the Muslim ban. You can’t claim to oppose the ban and vote to confirm him, okay? Looking at you, Graham and McCain. Looking at you, Feinstein. Looking at you, entire senate.

In the US Holocaust Museum. It’s not a fucking to do-list Bannon!

Sally is a Hero!!!

Lol, please, spare me the description of “nice” racists. I’ll be over here being Black and in reality.

I am disgusted by any description of this woman as a “lovely, kind” person or talk about her guilt or unburdening. She fucking lied and got that boy tortured and killed, then continued to lie on the witness stand. Fuck her. I hope she had no joy in her undeserved, long life.
