Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

Reality always lies in wait for … Democrats.

Come on, man.

If you don’t believe freedom is for everybody, then the thing you love isn’t freedom, it is privilege.

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

So very ready.

Never entrust democracy to any process that requires Republicans to act in good faith.

Second rate reporter says what?

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

Is it irresponsible to speculate? It is irresponsible not to.

The unpunished coup was a training exercise.

Why is it so hard for them to condemn hate?

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

The party of Reagan has become the party of Putin.

Republicans are radicals, not conservatives.

Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

A fool as well as an oath-breaker.

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

They fucked up the fucking up of the fuckup!

Not so fun when the rabbit gets the gun, is it?

Nancy smash is sick of your bullshit.

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

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

Stand up, dammit!

Let the trolls come, and then ignore them. that’s the worst thing you can do to a troll.

Seriously, Don Lemon. Please Stop Talking.

Don Lemon has stepped in it yet again. This time he has equated disciplining children with disciplining his dog: “You have to teach who’s in control. It doesn’t matter whether it’s fear or what have you, I’m saying this, because it stops you from doing it,” he added. And then he threw in some slavery mentions for good measure.

Please, CNN. Please stop letting this man have a platform. We’d suggest a muzzle, but we realize that people and animals aren’t the same.

Team Blackness also discussed how much a woman’s virginity is worth, the charitable natures of millenials, and Miss America versus conservatives.

    @ShadeTail: Now with a slight variation. Comments sections separate this time. My money is on FYWP shenanigans deep in the works.

    As for Lemon, the Fox News lunatics have been on this Discipline and Punish rage for days, so CNN has to copy. As I said before, Lemon’s big problems is he is not as idiotically bland as most CNN anchors. When he goes, he goes all in and says something ‘interesting’ (aka, truly weird or lunatic a la Fox News). It stand out more on CNN than Fox News, of course, at least for anchors, if not for panelists and mere reporters.

    I’m starting to hear Rod Serling in my head.

    “No, no, you don’t understand! This was posted days ago! And then it came back! And it keeps coming back! It just keeps coming back! Why won’t anybody believe me!?!?”

    @gvg: Yes, it is exact duplicate post from a few days ago. Seemed familiar. Someone see if they can find Elon James White. If not, we are in twilight zone territory.

    @RaflW: Well, if we’re using this space for other issues that might be addressed while figuring out what’s wrong with the process:
    A) private message on video seconded and
    B) there’s a 404 message when I try to use the direct download link. Doesn’t provide a lot of details, it’s trying to download traffic.libsyn.com/twibiu/TWR_575.mp3
    and says something about no previous URL.
