Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

They were going to turn on one another at some point. It was inevitable.

This really is a full service blog.

To the privileged, equality seems like oppression.

That meeting sounds like a shotgun wedding between a shitshow and a clusterfuck.

The fundamental promise of conservatism all over the world is a return to an idealized past that never existed.

I am pretty sure these ‘journalists’ were not always such a bootlicking sycophants.

“I was told there would be no fact checking.”

The arc of the moral universe does not bend itself. it is up to us to bend it.

The “burn-it-down” people are good with that until they become part of the kindling.

Pessimism assures that nothing of any importance will change.

Since when do we limit our critiques to things we could do better ourselves?

Let’s bury these fuckers at the polls 2 years from now.

Republicans in disarray!

It’s pointless to bring up problems that can only be solved with a time machine.

Washington Post Catch and Kill, not noticeably better than the Enquirer’s.

Republicans: “Abortion is murder but you can take a bus to get one.” Easy peasy.

It’s always darkest before the other shoe drops.

Republicans are the party of chaos and catastrophe.

People are weird.

Anne Laurie is a fucking hero in so many ways. ~ Betty Cracker

Come on, media. you have one job. start doing it.

rich, arrogant assholes who equate luck with genius

The fight for our country is always worth it. ~Kamala Harris

GOP baffled that ‘we don’t care if you die’ is not a winning slogan.

Why can’t they just GO AWAY?

Roger Clinton Said to Be Deeply Tied to Pardons– House reform panel says ex-president encouraged his brother

With President Clinton’s encouragement, his half-brother, Roger, collected hundreds of thousands of dollars to lobby on behalf of as many as 13 people seeking presidential pardons and other favors, a key congressional panel has found.

This characterization goes far beyond what Roger Clinton has acknowledged about his activities in seeking presidential pardons and suggests that he was much more deeply involved than previously known.

Read the whole thing if you must. I am sure this report from the right-wing LA Times will be used as evidence that Republicans and Conservatives just can’t get over the Clintons. And yes, I know that the committee is headed by a Republican.
