Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

Wake up. Grow up. Get in the fight.

Every decision we make has lots of baggage with it, known or unknown.

Good lord, these people are nuts.

Fuck these fucking interesting times.

I like political parties that aren’t owned by foreign adversaries.

Today’s gop: why go just far enough when too far is right there?

Our job is not to persuade republicans but to defeat them.

Boeing: repeatedly making the case for high speed rail.

There are times when telling just part of the truth is effectively a lie.

Not all heroes wear capes.

People are complicated. Love is not.

If you tweet it in all caps, that makes it true!

Prediction: the gop will rethink its strategy of boycotting future committees.

These days, even the boring Republicans are nuts.

“In this country American means white. everybody else has to hyphenate.”

I’d hate to be the candidate who lost to this guy.

All hail the time of the bunny!

Incompetence, fear, or corruption? why not all three?

Hi god, it’s us. Thanks a heap, you’re having a great week and it’s only Thursday!

“Can i answer the question? No you can not!”

I swear, each month of 2025 will have its own history degree.

Republicans choose power over democracy, every day.

Too often we confuse noise with substance. too often we confuse setbacks with defeat.

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

On Hardball, while discussing new gun laws to help fight terrorism (stop giggling), Chris Matthews and Frank Lautenberg had this exchange (paraphrased- I will correct when the transcript is up):

Matthews: “What do you do when these gun laws to stop terrorists from getting guns might keep a guy who just wants to hunt from getting a rifle?”

Lautenberg: “That is just a chance we have to take.”

Aye carumba.

    Didn’t Christopher Hedges just condemn the use of war to make people think too much of the collective? To just go along, and to give up their freedoms and their rights?

    Perhaps Mr. Hedges should have a chat w/ Mr. Matthews and Mr. Lautenberg?

    I don’t have cable, so I didn’t see the broadcast. Did the conversation have anything to do with the sunsetting assault rifles ban?
