Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

I’d like to think you all would remain faithful to me if i ever tried to have some of you killed.

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

Many life forms that would benefit from greater intelligence, sadly, do not have it.

The real work of an opposition party is to oppose.

How stupid are these people?

People really shouldn’t expect the government to help after they watched the GOP drown it in a bathtub.

There are consequences to being an arrogant, sullen prick.

People identifying as christian while ignoring christ and his teachings is a strange thing indeed.

Roe is not about choice. It is about freedom.

Today in our ongoing national embarrassment…

There is no right way to do the wrong thing.

Republicans: slavery is when you own me. freedom is when I own you.

Marge, god is saying you’re stupid.

So it was an October Surprise A Day, like an Advent calendar but for crime.

Narcissists are always shocked to discover other people have agency.

The next time the wall street journal editorial board speaks the truth will be the first.

Republicans cannot even be trusted with their own money.

“Facilitate” is an active verb, not a weasel word.

It is not hopeless, and we are not helpless.

He seems like a smart guy, but JFC, what a dick!

We cannot abandon the truth and remain a free nation.

Fundamental belief of white supremacy: white people are presumed innocent, minorities are presumed guilty.

Museums are not America’s attic for its racist shit.

This has so much WTF written all over it that it is hard to comprehend.

Gov’t Seeks to Ease Airport

Gov’t Seeks to Ease Airport Hassles

They can not be serious.

Airline passengers soon may be able to board a plane without being asked whether they have kept a close watch on their bags. And starting right away, they can take drinks through security checkpoints.

I guess after failing to trip up a bunch of terrorists with those tricky interrogation techniques “Has anyone unknown to you asked you to carry an item on this flight?” and “Have any of the items you are traveling with been out of your immediate control since the time you packed them?”), they have now realized what the entire public has known since day one. These are needless hassles, not precautions. I guess mother’s will now be allowed to carry their breast milk through airports.
