Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

No offense, but this thread hasn’t been about you for quite a while.

“Loving your country does not mean lying about its history.”

These days, even the boring Republicans are nuts.

Lick the third rail, it tastes like chocolate!

Republican speaker of the house Mike Johnson is the bland and smiling face of evil.

They punch you in the face and then start crying because their fist hurts.

If ‘weird’ was the finish line, they ran through the tape and kept running.

Jack be nimble, jack be quick, hurry up and indict this prick.

Text STOP to opt out of updates on war plans.

Fight for a just cause, love your fellow man, live a good life.

Too often we hand the biggest microphones to the cynics and the critics who delight in declaring failure.

Disagreements are healthy; personal attacks are not.

Every reporter and pundit should have to declare if they ever vacationed with a billionaire.

Technically true, but collectively nonsense

… pundit janitors mopping up after the gop

So fucking stupid, and still doing a tremendous amount of damage.

Putin must be throwing ketchup at the walls.

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

I might just take the rest of the day off and do even more nothing than usual.

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

Historically it was a little unusual for the president to be an incoherent babbling moron.

A thin legal pretext to veneer over their personal religious and political desires.

No Kings: Americans standing in the way of bad history saying “Oh, Fuck No!”

So many bastards, so little time.

I am watching Nightline tonight, and one of the guests is Marc Malloch Brown, the administrator for the United Nations Develoment Program. I only mention this because I am one of the first to bash the UN, in fact, if you check the archives here, I am one of the most opportunistic UN bashers in existence.

Having said that, I must admit that Mr. Brown was perhaps the most confidence inspiring UN official I have ever heard. I do not know his track record, but he answered Koppel’s question openly, honestly, with an obvious level of understanding and sophistication of someone who clearly understands his mandate and is very clearly in charge of things.

I trust this man with my money.

    OK, give him your money but not mine. Corruption at the UN appears to be institutional not a hit or miss thing. One trustworthy man is not going to turn back the tide of knavery at the UN. Put your trust in American charities that you know.
