It's amazing how quickly "the President is going to cheat to win" is just normalized as a factor we must all work around because the system itself is far too corrupted to stop him.
The thing I like about Beto's stunt is it shows a willingness to try anything at this point. Which is exactly the emergency stance every Democrat should be taking right now.
I don’t think Brett Kavanaugh’s family should be put in jeopardy as a result of his decisions.
But I also think my family shouldn’t be put in jeopardy as a result of his decisions.
Nothing stopping Joe Scarborough from devoting a weekly segment from now until Election Day to highlight a different Trump sexual assault accuser’s story.
Just to be clear, Trump's lawyer saying a government official should be executed is a "joke," but Kathy Griffin, who makes jokes for a living was making a "threat."
Let’s be honest here, if we’re going to float unsubstantiated conspiracies, Trump getting 74 million votes is much more suspicious than Biden getting 80 million.
Has Trump expressed any sympathy to the families of the dead yet? Any compassion for the medical professionals in harm’s way? Any human feelings at all beyond pride in his ratings?
Biden issuing an emergency declaration for a state that didn't vote for him without even a little insinuation that it's really kind of their fault? Weird.
Regarding the Newsom move, I hope other Democrats are taking note of just how giddy the base gets when fire is fought with fire and not just stern pronouncements of disappointment and wishful thinking.
I'm not sure a week ago I would have bought that it would make a difference but I really do think Jon Stewart dropping hot inside the GOP media bubble had a catalytic impact that blindsided them.
9 days between Katie Hill being accused of an affair and resigning. It's now been a month since the Matt Gaetz story broke and he's raising money off of it.
The thing about going zero tolerance on people spoofing Musk’s screen name is did he really think million follower accounts would stick with the bit for more than a day or two? The actual funny response would have been for him to change his to Kathy Griffin.
People who think Joe Rogan has had a rough week should talk to a doctor or nurse who has to look forward to watching people who did their own research die every time they clock in.
I'm just a little skeptical of the motives of the politicians saying today's tragedy requires an instant rethinking of policy but after every mass shooting in this country insist the only answer is to do absolutely nothing.
The subtext of the Carl Bernstein CNN article is there are really a lot of people around Trump who know he's an existential threat to the country and they are freaking out.
Has it occurred to anyone that the White House that wasn't concerned about Democrats dying because they weren't going to vote for them anyway feels the same way about school children?
The rush from MAGA media figures to performatively condemn the halftime show is a great example of how much ginned up white grievance is the glue holding the right together.
Fox News: Right after we mock Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez's fear of being targeted by a murderous mob, Josh Hawley is here to tell us one more time how a canceled book is the worst thing that can happen to someone.
In light of this week's revelations it sure seems like Mike Pence has a patriotic duty to explain why he wouldn't get in the car with the Secret Service.
I just want to say for the record when in the future people say, “We had no idea the extent of the damage he was doing to the structure of the government,” some of us knew.
Stephen Miller, Trump’s architect of mass human rights abuses at the border (including child separation & detention camps w/ child fatalities) has been exposed as a bonafide white nationalist.
He’s still at the White House shaping US immigration policy.
Miller must resign. Now.
At some point maybe more people will notice that Republicans are actively trying to make everything worse so they can run in how bad things are. And that’s the extent of their plan.
Sure would be a nice break from the Manchin and Sinema show if some press would ask Collins and Murkoski their take on stuff like family leave or vision and dental for seniors. Republicans get to be against popular legislation without any heat whatsoever.
I do appreciate that the one short clip of Jared behaving like an aged out John Hughes villain instantly undid all the reputation repair work they've done with the New York Times.
