Fewer than 1 in 10 of our Congressional races are considered competitive - in a country that's politically more or less 50-50.

People compare the United States' fascism today to Germany's fascism in the 1930s, but it's actually far more shameless and stupid.

So, Tom Homan can straight accept a bag of $50K in cash from the FBI in a sting operation, have the investigation dismissed by this corrupt Justice Department, but all of Trump's critics somehow face indictments?

Cool, cool. Cool.
