My kingdom for primaries to be all on the same day! Does anyone have a good reason against that? Like, I hate that some states get all the advantages to pick our next president (note - those states are white!) - and then also, someone losing in one of these early states is viewed as a loser and that actually fucks

I’m sure they’ll be getting a P.O. Box real soon before they move. 

It is honestly a miracle more people weren’t killed.  You watch the video, and it’s is horrific; I was sure when it happened he’d killed multiple people.

Jr.?  I wonder what the daddy’s like.  Jeeze.

Additionally, his attorney’s pointed out that “no individual is wholly defined by their worst moments”

I hope the judge looks in him in the eyes and says “where was the mercy for Heather Heyer?” before handing him the maximum penalty.

This guy would have to be the Marie Kondo of serving time in that case, because it sounds like they’re already pretty goddamn organized as it is.

“...under federal sentencing guidelines he’s expected to spend the rest of his life in prison.”

We shouldn’t shy away from using a term because people are ignorant of history. These fools are perfectly capable of looking up “concentration camp” on Wikipedia and they’d see it’s a term that’s been in existence for a long time. The ones making a bad faith argument are the ones saying it’s “offensive” to correctly us

I do care about people

Well, genius, they haven’t broken any laws.

This manufactured controversy is so stupid it’s infuriating. Concentration camps existed before WWII and the term existed before WWII. That’s all anyone needs to say to these morons who keeps insisting it’s somehow “offensive” to correctly use the term.

A concentration camp is not the same thing as a prison nor a detention center. It’s quite literally a camp with concentrated populations of a minority group without the resources available to serve those people’s basic needs. There is no aspect of the definition that includes rounding people up, but it is true also

We go all the way to these other countries and gather them up? Or do they voluntarily come here? If they want to go home they can rescind their asylum claim.

Yeah. That was boss. And I am loving all of the VERY insightful and highly articulate statements (and burns) coming from our our Women In Congress.

Actually they are gathered up and sent there and no they can’t leave. And yes they are camps, not actual buildings though there are detention centers too. And yes they are highly concentrated. So...

To paraphrase what someone said on Twitter, we should not concern ourselves with performative outrage from people who screech about socialism and make comparisons to Stalin over efforts to clean up coal plant emissions and expand health care access.

Have you met America? Millions of us still think slavery wasn’t that bad.

AOC has really impressed me. It’s not that I was skeptical, but having dipped a foot into the political world I knew a lot of otherwise well-meaning politicians were, for lack of a better word, a bit vapid. She’s showed a lot of depth and strength and I really respect that. I think there’s more young Democrats in the

Just admit you live in a country with concentration camps. I know it's hard, but you can't change what you don't acknowledge
