Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

Jesus watching the most hateful people claiming to be his followers

I have other things to bitch about but those will have to wait.

There are no moderate republicans – only extremists and cowards.

fuckem (in honor of the late great efgoldman)

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

Tide comes in. Tide goes out. You can’t explain that.

Optimism opens the door to great things.

JFC, are there no editors left at that goddamn rag?

Relentless negativity is not a sign that you are more realistic.

Republicans choose power over democracy, every day.

We are aware of all internet traditions.

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

Republicans do not pay their debts.

You can’t attract Republican voters. You can only out organize them.

Donald Trump found guilty as fuck – May 30, 2024!

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

The low info voters probably won’t even notice or remember by their next lap around the goldfish bowl.

Everybody saw this coming.

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

Quote tweet friends, screenshot enemies.

Accountability, motherfuckers.

GOP baffled that ‘we don’t care if you die’ is not a winning slogan.

Fight them, without becoming them!

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

Two teams with great speed, if not great defense. Look for end-to-end action.

    That’s the Australia I’m looking for.

    Why didn’t the Aussies wear the traditional yellow/dk green in the USA game?

    Gonna take me a few minutes to adjust to this frenetic action after the stately tempo of PGA golf. LOL.

    @ThresherK:

    Is it a “home”/”away” thing?

    @Steeplejack (tablet): I don’t think so, as the US were in the all white kit.

    Not sure which one got to be considered “home” for this, but no conflict anyway.

    Oof. That’s gotta hurt Nigeria. Aussie fundamentals pay off.

    Is it too early to start looking at the group table and wondering what it takes to be one of the 4 (of 6) 3rd-place wildcards?

    The Nigerians are simply out of rhythm. They had some early counterattack chances but they have none of the verve in the second half they showed against Sweden. Great midfield work by the Aussies.
