Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

When we show up, we win.

I was confident that someone would point it out and thought why not me.

Good lord, these people are nuts.

The truth is, these are not very bright guys, and things got out of hand.

“I never thought they’d lock HIM up,” sobbed a distraught member of the Lock Her Up Party.

You cannot shame the shameless.

Impressively dumb. Congratulations.

When you’re in more danger from the IDF than from Russian shelling, that’s really bad.

“The defense has a certain level of trust in defendant that the government does not.”

You can’t love your country only when you win.

If you are still in the gop, you are either an extremist yourself, or in bed with those who are.

Pessimism assures that nothing of any importance will change.

Let’s delete this post and never speak of this again.

I was promised a recession.

And we’re all out of bubblegum.

Glad to see john eastman going through some things.

Hi god, it’s us. Thanks a heap, you’re having a great week and it’s only Thursday!

The current Supreme Court is a rogue court. Very dangerous.

No Justins, No Peace

Authoritarian republicans are opposed to freedom for the rest of us.

Let us savor the impending downfall of lawless scoundrels who richly deserve the trouble barreling their way.

I’d try pessimism, but it probably wouldn’t work.

Republicans choose power over democracy, every day.

In my day, never was longer.

It’s 2016 And It’s All Still Awful

Good to see that even though we’ve been off air, the horrible things keep coming. Bill Cosby has finally been charged with drugging and sexually assaulting a woman in 2004. Camille Cosby is being forced to testify in the defamation suit:

U.S. Judge Magistrate David Hennessey in Springfield, Massachusetts, said Camille Cosby failed to prove that she and her husband were protected by the state’s marital disqualification law. He also rejected claims that the value of the testimony would be outweighed by the “undue burden” the deposition would cause.

So that’s one down, 5o-some more to go.

Team Blackness also discussed #OregonUnderAttack and the Tamir Rice verdict.

    No fan of Cosby in all this, but I don’t understand how the time honored “spouse can’t be forced to testify against you” can be dismissed out of hand by the judge. How is that possible?

    When “The Cosby Show”was on the 80s I thought “We finally have State Television, with Reagan’s official model family posed for us to emulate. Not a fan.
