Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

Humiliatingly small and eclipsed by the derision of millions.

The fight for our country is always worth it. ~Kamala Harris

Fundamental belief of white supremacy: white people are presumed innocent, minorities are presumed guilty.

Bark louder, little dog.

Those who are easily outraged are easily manipulated.

Narcissists are always shocked to discover other people have agency.

The poor and middle-class pay taxes, the rich pay accountants, the wealthy pay politicians.

If rights aren’t universal, they are privilege, not rights.

Dear Washington Post, you are the darkness now.

A fool as well as an oath-breaker.

Too little, too late, ftfnyt. fuck all the way off.

Republicans: The threats are dire, but my tickets are non-refundable!

Peak wingnut was a lie.

Also, are you sure you want people to rate your comments?

American history and black history cannot be separated.

The worst democrat is better than the best republican.

if you can’t see it, then you are useless in the fight to stop it.

Do we throw up our hands or do we roll up our sleeves? (hint, door #2)

Well, whatever it is, it’s better than being a Republican.

Oh FFS you might as well trust a 6-year-old with a flamethrower.

Fight for a just cause, love your fellow man, live a good life.

The unpunished coup was a training exercise.

Sitting here in limbo waiting for the dice to roll

Our job is not to persuade republicans but to defeat them.

As I’ve said, my husband and I agree on politics in general, but he doesn’t follow it closely. He’s not on social media, doesn’t read political journals or books, blogs, newspaper articles, analysis, etc., about politics. Basically, he just shows up to vote (always for Democrats).

That makes him a pretty good gauge for the “normie” view, albeit a left-leaning normie. Anyhoo, he thought yesterday’s hearing was blockbuster stuff. The poor guy works with wingnuts, so he’ll have a report for me on how the events landed with that set later.

Thought this might be worth sharing because he almost always thinks I overestimate how Republican malfeasance will be perceived by the general public, and he’s almost always right about that. This time, he believes the party might have incurred real damage. Here’s hoping.

Open thread.
