“What a lovely tree, Mother.” - Mike Pence, probably

I’m not surprised he has shitty fake hair — after all, consider his boss. He learned at the feet of the master.

Hopefully a judge will injunction these laws.

But with the way it’s been going with the cavalier disregard for honor, precedent, decorum, and even the rule of law, it’s a matter of time until Republicans start ignoring judicial rulings en masse.

DON’T TRUST THE NEWS MEDIA! Except Fox News. They’re okay, because they’re not news media.

That NYTimes article last week about women who were illegally charged for their rape kits, as outrageous and horrifying as it was, had this extra cherry on top of the shit sundae:

That is literally “The Art of the Deal.”

What worries me most about this, and all the other times where someone talked Trump down, is the dire warning of “consequences” — “You mustn’t do that, Big Orange Daddy, or  bad things might happen.”

I don’t think I’ve ever seen two people start the “let’s break this off ASAP” back-patting more quickly.

What does it feel like, I wonder, to know that your party’s values are so bankrupt that the only way to win elections is to prevent as many people as possible from voting for the other party?

The best thing the FBI can do is not interview her. There is no way they can conduct a thorough investigation in a week. By not interviewing her, they deny Republicans the ability to even claim that it was a thorough investigation; how could it be, when they didn’t interview the key witness?

This is the Republican party today. Facts don’t matter; what you feel is what is true. Her testimony was potent, therefore she must be telling the truth.

First, there are plenty of high-end insulating layers which have DWR finish (are “water repellant”), from companies which exclusively produce outdoor gear for outdoor enthusiasts.
