Horseshoes belong in the fire to be reforged as something useful -- not in politics.
W.T. Sherman was right, and stopped way too soon.

I find it odd that only one of the child abusers/traffickers in the Epstein Files is incarcerated & she's a woman.
Pretty sure Epstein himself was killed.

Stephen Colbert says he was told by CBS lawyers "in no uncertain terms" that he could not have Texas State Rep. James Talarico on his program.
"Because my network clearly doesn't want us to talk about this, let's talk about this."

You may think it’s cute to see raccoons playing slots, but they keep shoving clams in there and it’s really ruining our machines.

from the perspective of someone who might want to be president, the best time to run for the white house is now, not later. so if AOC is thinking about it — if the white house is her ambition — then her best bet is to throw her hat in the ring

Trump recently suggested that he is getting ready to issue a new anti-voting executive order. Last time he issued one, we sued and won. If he does it again, we will sue and win. Trump knows this. It is why he and his allies hate and attack me.
