In video games, you will often find a fully roasted chicken abandoned on the ground, and eating it extremely quickly makes you feel better. What's less known is that this is also true in real life

I really don't think you're accurately representing what the reporter asked here and the whole framing is a bit misleading

this really is all just about resentment over obama being given the prize

BARTIROMO: On your point about the Nobel Peace Prize, do you think maybe the reason Trump won't get it is because you had to get the application in before Jan. 31, and that was only 11 days into his term?

SCALISE: Look, they can play technicalities. They gave it to Obama for just getting elected.

I really don't think it's a fair representation of the reporter's question. The reporter briefly described Trump's threats and then asked the committee their thoughts on it and how it affected their deliberations.

Wasn’t really sure what to expect from Chapel Bill. But after that drive, I have him as second best college coach I’ve ever seen, just below Saban.

Don't fund fascism! That's such a simple and imo easy to sell stance and it's right there dems just have to reach for it!

Seeing the entire DOJ collapse like a house of cards because Comey decided to stand up for himself makes me yearn even more for these prestigious lawfirms, universities, and billion dollar corporations stand up for themselves and tell the admin to bring it.

I know the racism is the point but Bad Bunny has also done a bunch of events and work with Pro Wrestling! So there's gotta be at least some crossover appeal there lol

Oh no Mr. Speaker! A woman and an undocumented immigrant receiving adequate healthcare and hospital's having less than maximum profit margins, how can we possibly continue as a nation under these conditions

Also in some ways Trump had already shutdown huge parts of the government. Grants not being issued, mass layoffs, services delayed or not rendered.

Laughing about how all the political knowers thought McCarthy was politically untouchable because he was some generational fundraiser. As if money doesn't just follow power.

Hey friends-

It’s really hard being alive right now for those of us who care about things like humanity, decency, the environment, democracy, etc,

If you are here still fighting for what is right I love u.

None of this is easy. Please take care of yourselves. Logging off sometimes is A-OK.

Great story! Laughing at how Kennedy thinks Scalia had some moral hangup solved through the power of friendship, when it sounds like a man very much aware of his impending mortality and doing the just-in-case good Catholic apology.
