Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

So many bastards, so little time.

“Alexa, change the president.”

Conservatism: there are people the law protects but does not bind and others who the law binds but does not protect.

After dobbs, women are no longer free.

Lick the third rail, it tastes like chocolate!

If senate republicans had any shame, they’d die of it.

Trump’s cabinet: like a magic 8 ball that only gives wrong answers.

They are not red states to be hated; they are voter suppression states to be fixed.

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

Rupert, come get your orange boy, you petrified old dinosaur turd.

We do not need to pander to people who do not like what we stand for.

Text STOP to opt out of updates on war plans.

Fucking consultants! (of the political variety)

Not loving this new fraud based economy.

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

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

We’re watching the self-immolation of the leading world power on a level unprecedented in human history.

Red lights blinking on democracy’s dashboard

A sufficient plurality of insane, greedy people can tank any democratic system ever devised, apparently.

American history and black history cannot be separated.

It’s always darkest before the other shoe drops.

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

When I was faster i was always behind.

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

    I liked it too. It was a bit disorganized and badly named, though. I wish they’d tried a redesign or something. I think it was doomed as was.

    Bought by Forbes. Ick. Looking forward to the look on Matt Taibibi’s face when he is assigned the “America’s Sexiest CEO’s” story.

    @DougJ:
    Yeah, the navigation and design was truly bad, and the name didn’t really make sense either. Taibbi was the only person I ever actually went there to see, and he went over to Rolling Stone over the summer.

    And I wasn’t crazy about that Roston article. Talk about burying a lead. Nowhere on the front page of the site is there anything saying the site will shut down, and you have to get at least halfway through the article to figure out what he’s talking about.

    Taibbi was forced by Rolling Stone to move his blogging activities to their site recently. That may have been the beginning of the end for True/Slant.
