Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

Not loving this new fraud based economy.

One way or another, he’s a liar.

The cruelty is the point; the law be damned.

You are so fucked. Still, I wish you the best of luck.

When do we start airlifting the women and children out of Texas?

The real work of an opposition party is to hold the people in power accountable.

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

Why is it so hard for them to condemn hate?

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

Every decision we make has lots of baggage with it, known or unknown.

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

If you tweet it in all caps, that makes it true!

Our messy unity will be our strength.

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

He really is that stupid.

Disagreements are healthy; personal attacks are not.

T R E 4 5 O N

Give the craziest people you know everything they want and hope they don’t ask for more? Great plan.

Radicalized white males who support Trump are pitching a tent in the abyss.

You passed on an opportunity to be offended? What are you even doing here?

We’re watching the self-immolation of the leading world power on a level unprecedented in human history.

Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

The world has changed, and neither one recognizes it.

Baby steps, because the Republican Party is full of angry babies.

    I’ll donate when I get paid next, and will throw in something to Bob Etheridge (NC). He’s in a tough district in Eastern NC, was noncommittal for a while, but was never a Stupaker to my knowledge. North Carolina dems disappointed overall, I would say he was the only vulnerable one who voted for it.

    Has anybody tried to connect the dots between Michelle Bachmann, Sarah Palin and Hutaree yet?

    Today’s dispatch from Lake Batshit (shorter):

    “First they came for Ron Paul.
    But I was not Ron Paul, so I said nothing.
    Then they came for Glenn Greenwald.
    But I was not Glenn Greenwald, so I said nothing.
    Then they came for David Frum.
    But I was not David Frum, so I said nothing.
    Then they came for Jane Hamsher.
    But I am Jane Hamsher, and I WILL NOT SHUT THE FUCK UP.”

    Tee hee.

    (sorry, can’t help it. Yes, I KNOW I have a problem…)

    Militia raids were over plot to “levy war” against the US Government

    Detroit — Nine members of a militia group arrested in Michigan, Indiana, Illinois and Ohio were planning to “levy war” against the United States and “oppose by force” the nation’s government, according to an indictment released this morning in U.S. District Court in Detroit.

    The eight men and one woman are members of the “Hutaree,” identified as an “anti-government extremist organization” in the indictment, and each faces three to five charges, including sedition, attempts to use weapons of mass destruction, teaching/demonstrating use of explosive materials and two counts of carrying weapons in relation to a crime of violence.

    @SIA:

    re: claustrophobia and flying.
    Try imagining that the People’s Citizens United Republic of Baby Jeebusstan has just been declared and you are on the last airplane out. Sort of like Saigon in 1975. Maybe that will help.
