Y’all need to get a grip on reality. We know that Gorsuch is a strict constitutionalist with exactly one caveat: that there is a fundamental right to “life” that applies to fetuses. He will vote to overturn Roe. We know that Thomas would vote to do it. If Trump puts in someone like Barrett, who would almost certainly

Is the “corrupt individual” Scott Pruitt, Jeff Sessions, or Donald Trump? Because that really doesn’t narrow it down.

I don’t think it’s likely he’s going to do it before the mid-terms on purpose, both for fear of comparisons to Comey and the fact that he’s also a Republican. But we know that he intends to make public conclusions about the “obstruction of justice” portion of the investigation some time this summer. We also know he

Democrats can’t even bring themselves to rally around abolishing ICE or impeaching Trump. But if a Democrat presidential candidate had “extraditing the Trump administration en masse to the Hague to stand trial” as a plank of their campaign, that’d be great.

How are Trump voters possibly going to boycott Wal-Mart? It’s literally the only place in most Trump-voting communities to buy shit. Thanks for that by the way, Wal-Mart.

I’m only going to be excited about this if Rian Johnson gets a co-writer this time. TLJ is a movie full of interesting ideas hobbled by poor writing.

This whole period has been a test of his leadership that he’s failed pretty substantially, in my opinion. Denying ACA repeal was an easy layup that just about any Democratic senator could’ve managed. Otherwise, Trump’s had free reign to nominate pretty much anyone he wanted to any post he wanted. The judiciary is

Obergefell is definitely something to really be worried about. But to consolidate both of your replies, I think it’s important to note that you’re right: a case based on strong legal principals is insulated from ideological attack. But neither Romer nor Obergefell are based on strong legal principles. They don’t put

Obergefell had a wonderful effect, but as precedence it’s pretty useless. If a liberal justice had written it, we might have seen LGBT rights get a huge jump through greater Constitutional protection. Pretty much the only thing keeping me going through this is remembering that losing Kennedy isn’t going to be as great

I’m glad someone is making this point. Casey is not a win for abortion rights. It’s the stepping stone between Roe and whatever hypothetical case comes next the wrecks everything. 

It’s been hard watching the Titans slowly roast over a dumpster fire for the last few seasons but I’m still glad they drafted Marcus Mariota over Winston. I’m sure having Winston around must be very shameful for the six or seven people in the Tampa Bay area who can feel shame.

The same people wringing their hands about this were the same people who wholeheartedly celebrated Joe Wilson interrupting the fucking State of the Union to scream “you lie!” at President Obama, like a petulant child. They’re hypocrites of the highest order.

I understand guns, vigilante-ism etc. is a sensitive topic for a lot of people but there is really no comparison between Iron Fist and The Punisher. The Punisher ranged from “good” to “mediocre” while Iron Fist is just objectively terrible. It’s more offensive, more drab and more poorly written than Punisher by a

*Robert Mueller adjusts reading glasses*

What’s your proof that Hillary Clinton’s actions as Secretary of State were swayed by donations to the Clinton Foundation? Where’s your proof that Hillary Clinton was using Clinton Foundation money to enrich herself? Without those, you have no argument, just false equivalency.

1. Michael Wolff alleges Trump had an affair in the White House.
2. Ivanka has an office in the White House.

It can’t have Captain America on it because Captain America fought the Nazis that were in control of the US government.

I definitely think Alice Johnson should be pardoned but I don’t know if we should set a baseline of “if you haven’t committed a violent crime, you shouldn’t get a life sentence.” I mean, Trump and his cabinet haven’t committed “violent crimes” but they certainly all deserve to rot in prison.

Haha, you’re right. I’m sure he curses his matinee-idol good looks every day.

Fair enough. My own personal experience would be Masterminds, which is stocked full of hilarious people but is about as funny as a root canal.
