I definitely question anyone who willingly eats at Subway, but I’d be more inclined to call a psychiatrist or a dietitian than the police.

Scott Pruitt left now so that he can speed up his impending corruption trial(s), in time to be pardoned before Trump is voted out in 2020. It almost certainly will not work, but it’s probably his best shot at avoiding prison.

I’d settle for a fight right now. I know the odds are very long that they stop this. It’s not inconceivable Susan Collins holds up an ultra-conservative threat to Roe v Wade. It’s a hail mary for sure, but this is the fucking Supreme Court. You do everything you can, even if it’s in vain, because the stakes are just

There’s a reason Trump uses MS-13 and not Latin Kings or Mexican Mafia as his example, and it’s because anecdotally they’ve committed some really heinous crimes, even by street gang standards. They earned a reputation for being notoriously dangerous and violent. If you’re hellbent on demonizing young, Latino men,

I find it hard to believe anyone who has worked for Trump is willing to do time for him. Eventually he fucks over everyone in his sphere, and he doesn’t have enough money to keep them from rolling over.

Right/wrong may not be the proper descriptors, but there are certainly ways to cut fruits and vegetables that are unsafe and/or inefficient, like, for example, the picture at the top of this article.  Efficiency goes a long way with tasks as mundane as cutting up vegetables.  

I use the word fuck all the time in casual conversation, or when commenting on the internet. It’s a fine word. But it’s not for every situation. It doesn’t belong in formal or polite discourse. Unless you’re an entertainer of some sort, it’s not professional. Not everyone is as desensitized to it.

How fucked up is it that Trump calling her “an extraordinarily low IQ person,” which you know is racist as all get out, barely even registers? Could you imagine the furor if any previous president had called an elderly black congresswoman “low IQ?” He’s lowered the bar so fucking low that he could probably go full

He thinks Mexicans can give Koreans green cards?  What fucking world has he been living in?

Doesn’t seem to be any question a recession is looming. The only questions are how bad it will get, and how long it will last. I have zero confidence in our government to manage a recession, so I would brace for the worst.

I understand Hillary didn’t need his vote in NY, and I wasn’t crazy about her, either. But I’ll never understand how anyone who purports to be on the left failed to recognize that the general election was a binary choice between Trump and not Trump.  I’m sure many of them would like a mulligan, but it really angers me

Pelosi getting Obamacare (or more accurately, Pelosicare) passed was incredibly impressive, especially when you see how Ryan and McConnell failed to repeal it, which should have been much easier. You can tell when she speaks now that her time has passed, but when the pressure was on her to make something happen, she

I’m with you, he’s completely impotent. And there’s certainly an argument to be made that he’s played a big role in getting us to where we are now. But now that we’re here, given the circumstances, I think denying quorum is a pipe dream, regardless of who is whipping. There are just too many Dems who are going to have

Well, all of that assumes McCain doesn’t make it back to Washington, or that he doesn’t step down so a replacement can be named. The Repubs have 51 seats, so if they can produce 51 bodies, it’s a moot point. With that in mind, there are a lot of sitting Dem senators up for reelection this fall in states that voted for

You’re not wrong, of course, in that the Dems ultimately can’t stop this. But after the Garland affair, they have to make it as painful for McConnell and the Repubs as possible. Make them use the nuclear option. See if you can force Pence to have to cast a deciding vote. Fight it every step of the way. They won’t stop

I don’t see this as a major setback for the DNC, rather a miscalculation on their part. They didn’t take Ocasio-Cortez seriously, and didn’t even bother to deploy the bulk of their resources. Crowley has an immense power base, and they didn’t show up yesterday. 28k total votes in a district in NYC seems like an

Perfectly said. She understands you need centrists to win swing districts, and you need swing districts to win control. But there’s zero reason safely blue seats should be centrist.

It has most of the hallmarks of his writing, other than the humor.  I’m sure if he’d waited until this evening, he could have found plenty of ridiculous pieces to give the FJM treatment, while making the same points.

I’m pretty disappointed if this was really written by Magary.
