Nazi Bannon has been very clear about why he is “all for them being in the White House”: because Trump is a means to an end for him. Trump got Nazi Bannon where he wants to be. “Trump is a ‘blunt instrument for us,’ Bannon told Ken Stern for Vanity Fair last summer. ‘I don’t know whether he really gets it or not.’”…
It’s about time she found her fucking spine.
I’m only more adamant this is the case. It’s all low stakes though so Idgaf
Yes. And I feel woefully unprepared. I’m broke, out of shape, and don’t have any weapons. My kitchen knives are even dull. I read an article where the writer explained that he got LASIK surgery on his eyes. Because wearing glasses or contacts will make things difficult in the wars to come. It nearly gave me a panic…
“We took some unprecedented actions today due to the unprecedented obstruction on the part of our colleagues,” Sen. Hatch said in a statement. What does unprecedented mean again?
Also INCREDIBLY tedious. That passage above is supposed to be an example of compelling writing? Oh, for Chrissake.
Drug memoirs are so boring. I can’t decide which I like less - new mom think-pieces or reminiscences by a junkie.
Of all the reasons to hate politics, the hypocrisy of the right on our current and last first ladies is right up there. Melania is on the cover of Vanity Fair eating diamonds and won’t move to DC yet it’s crickets on her because the left is too nice and the right doesn’t care. Michelle Obama asks kids to eat healthy…
45-50% of the entire country is liberal - even in the reddest state, 35-40% + voted against Trump, and that doesn’t even count people who can’t vote either because they have been disenfranchised or because they are too young, etc. There are, what, 330 million Americans? You can’t take 132 million plus of us. And, the…
I see that progress looks like insufferable arrogance.
Let me rephrase that: “Tough shit. I’m tired of being Captain Save-a-Ho to all the working class African Americans being lumped in with knuckle-dragging mouth-breathing country, who have never left the red state they were born in and absolutely do not have the resources to relocate. It’s not the job of California,…
Huh? There are plenty of other states that are proportionally as liberal as yours, and plenty of backwards areas in your state.
Are you forgetting that California spawned Richard Nixon, Ronald Reagan, and Proposition 6, among other treasures? It’s just not true that California has always been a bastion of progressive virtue. The Central Valley, Orange County, and San Diego are still as conservative as it comes. I have lots of family in CA (El…
Hey Dicklicker, you guys aren’t as progressive as you think you are. Why don’t you look up and see which state uses the most green energy? It sure as fuck isn’t you guys. Hell, you produce more oil than any one in the union. Fuck I hate California liberals.
I’m sure others have mentioned this, but an independent California would suffer mightily once the rest of the mountain west starts negotiating trade deals with them for all the water they need.
You mention being glad to see Heche and Oh finally in a movie again.... But Alicia Silverstone is also in this?!?
Of course it’s Tiffany’s box.
Perhaps this is me grasping at straws, but I wonder if part of the inevitability of autocracy and failure of resistence in Gessen’s experience is at all related to the fact that Russians had already lived under an oppressive government for generations before Putin came along.
In my more Pollyanna moments, I hope that…
