As I stated before I remember when I swelled with pride when HRC’s support for Iraq made her a toxic figure in 2008 primary.

Olivia Nuzzi continues to write these useless profiles. Who is she writing this for?

And, if confirmed, Haspel will be the first woman to lead an intelligence agency in our nation’s history. You’d think that fact alone would be cause for celebration for the party that, just one election cycle ago, made breaking glass ceilings a central part of the case for its presidential nominee. 

I dunno, I think this is impressive. Too many of these kinds of things go overboard with the sarcasm and tip their hand. Libby This guy manages to balance right on the edge, with everything he’s saying being completely ridiculous yet also a plausible argument that a mainstream publication like the NYT would publish

Public money built the internet you dork.

Jones JUST voted the same way Roy Moore would have voted. To argue that he’s no Roy Moore is hollow at best.

In the wake of Conor Lamb’s victory, there were some headlines that suggested that candidates can win by “not criticizing fellow Democrats (and Trump)” openly.

If you didn’t notice, all of the Democratic moves to the right and pushes for cautious and “moderate” solutions led to a) no immigration reform b) no DREAM Act c) a DACA order which is now in tatters with a very real possibility that there will be no long-term fix and d) a right wing mob that despite all of this STILL

Border/Customs security is called U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP). ICE is not at all CBP; ICE exists to terrorize people who are not committing criminal offenses, and because of their actions ICE should be eliminated.

Superdelegates are anti-democratic and any party that uses them is ultimately anti-democratic as a result.

A PAC that was formed to help candidates without much money get their name out there to jump start their campaign now only wants to support candidates that already have money. It’s not a complicated criticism. 

I won’t bother taking you out of the greys “Hellspawn1221" for your moronic reply but- just curious what your enlightened version of history is?

Just watching part of a PBS doc about the history of middle east conflict and the long ongoing battle between the Saudi’s and Iran.

I remember holding off on the Bush wiretapping as being the day I for sure lost any trust in the NYTimes to be a respectable paper. It was just “a newspaper” after that.
