Susan Rice would be a better Secretary of State than Kamala Harris, and Kamala would be a better Attorney General, and Vice President, and President. So hopefully Biden picks her, though either would be a strong choice 

she’s never had to answer questions about some dumb shit her boss said.

He’ll ‘put out the fire’ by giving even more money to rich people, thus screwing everyone else, but he’ll pay lip service to minorities and LGBTQ people so people will be mollified. Because that’s how Third Way corporatism works.

Eh, this is a stupid answer and I got a chuckle out of it.

You really think the Root should just ignore Biden asking a black reporter if he’s a junkie and on cocaine? Yes it was rhetorical, but the optics are terrible.

We need to keep Biden’s feet to the fire (sorry for that gross image) because he’s 100% feeling like he doesn’t have to win ANYONE over because Trump is that bad. His campaign is the epitome of white male privilege in that he literally has to do zero work while everyone pushes him over the finish line.

The COVID pandemic is the best thing that could have happened to Biden politically. It highlighted Trump’s lack of crisis management skills, derailed the economic expansion and, most importantly, allowed Biden to avoid extensively and exhaustively traveling the country making unscripted appearances. There’s talk of…

I once got a fundraising call from Cori Bush herself and was struck by how palpably compassionate she was. We wound up talking about my sick mother and ostensibly about how things might be different for her if America had universal healthcare but I mostly just felt Bush’s love and concern for me and my family. It…

NEWS FLASH: Not everyone is an asshole in creative fields and continuing to excuse their behavior only makes it more common. 

Her face.

If that workplace has become so toxic their first stop should have been HR not fucking twitter.

I wouldn’t say I’m enjoying it, but don’t you find it mildly amusing?

Such a weird comment. People can hold more than one celebrity accountable for their actions at a time, you know.

This is way too all over the place, dude.

Nobody was comparing her to those guys.  Like at all. You can get off your white horse

When you have a show named after you, you have to take some responsibility for what is done in your name.  

You do realize Weinstein is in jail and Epstein is dead, right? Also, while Lauer isn’t in jail, he hasn’t had anything resembling a career since the scandal. O’Reilly is essentially independent and supported solely by his followers, very few of which read AV Club.

Yah she still sounds like an asshole.

Glad for her but not as excited as I should be. She was a favorite of mine until she basically became another black voice channeling the DNC’s talking points on MSNBC. What i’m looking for is an independent black voice willing to break with establishment politics and not labeling dissenting voices as “russian bots”,…

Yep. The experience she’s describing has happened to me every time I have pre-ordered/paid for food at McDonald’s (meaning roughly a couple times a month). They don’t start making your order until you actually show up at the restaurant. That means that if it’s busy or you have a large order, you’re asked to park and…
