Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

White supremacy is terrorism.

It may be funny to you motherfucker, but it’s not funny to me.

“Squeaker” McCarthy

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

Putin dreamed of ending NATO, and now it’s Finnish-ed.

When your entire life is steeped in white supremacy, equality feels like discrimination.

Accountability, motherfuckers.

You don’t get rid of your umbrella while it’s still raining.

Reality always lies in wait for … Democrats.

Perhaps you mistook them for somebody who gives a damn.

Following reporting rules is only for the little people, apparently.

Accused of treason; bitches about the ratings. I am in awe.

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

Republicans seem to think life begins at the candlelight dinner the night before.

This year has been the longest three days of putin’s life.

Thanks for reminding me that Van Jones needs to be slapped.

Battle won, war still ongoing.

Everybody saw this coming.

In short, I come down firmly on all sides of the issue.

“Jesus paying for the sins of everyone is an insult to those who paid for their own sins.”

A consequence of cucumbers

Imperialist aggressors must be defeated, or the whole world loses.

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

Russian mouthpiece, go fuck yourself.

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 http://traffic.libsyn.com/twibiu/TWR_575.mp3
    and says something about no previous URL.
