The Dems don't need a candidate who can control the news cycle like it's an episode of Here Comes Honey Boo Boo. They have, you know, like actual politicians in the running.

I don’t know if this has been widely seen but I just thought it was funny and not much about Ted Cruz is.

Cream of Water. But he uses a can of skim milk when he’s feeling fancy.

“Hmm," said Ridley Scott, "that cat gives me an idea."

if only it had sound you could hear the octopus whispering:

This is actually really interestingly strategic.

This definitely. And it’s a clever move on his part to show, “look even these assholes won’t approve what most of them would consider to be a ‘best possible choice’ candidate”. So yeah, good luck idiots with whatever liberal justice Hillary nominates.

The other leading candidate was Sri Srinivasan, and while I was at first disappointed to here Obama was going with Garland for the same reason you are, I think it actually does Srinivasan a favor. He’s young, and certainly will have other opportunities. Had he been nominated and blocked now, that would have hurt his…

I feel like Obama must kind of feel the way I feel when I try to get my kids to eat anything. “Okay guys, here. I know you like this. It’s bland, inoffensive, yet substantive and you have definitely eaten something like this before. Now chew and swallow. GODDAMNIT WHY ARE YOU SAYING NO!?!?! YOU’RE JUST TRYING TO BE…

Shrewd move on Obama’s part. Garland is a centrist who has voted with both sides in the past. Republicans are going to have a tough time justifying their fuckery. And yet...here we go, I’m sure.

The police knew a few weeks in advance the tape was going to be released.

I’m all for keeping the pressure up but he won’t resign unless he can score himself a “better” position that he can spin as a step up. He won’t want to lose face. And since we can’t recall him, he’ll likely survive this term. The key is not making it possible for him to run again.

It’s been pretty extensively covered here. I think all Americans, black and white, liberal and conservative, can come together on agreeing that Rahm Emanuel is a vile piece of shit.

There are a lot of powerful entrenched interests that she’s going to bump against, like the cops, for one. It isn’t going to he easy.Wish her luck.

feels so good to hear this news!

As a Chicago area resident: GOOD. Alvarez was elected on a campaign of transparency and reform, but she has fought to keep wrongfully convicted people in prison and protected cops who killed without justification. She needs to go.

Good. I’m glad that voters were able to oust her. She was so arrogant in the wake of the footage of McDonald’s murder being released.

Rahm Emmanuel straight up conspired with the alderman of Chicago, including many black ones, to cover up the shooting of Laquan McDonald in exchange for political favor. You should write as many articles on this as you do on Trump until that pos resigns.

Best news I’ve heard all day
