Wow. My opinion of Ms. Porter has really soured. I used to admire her, now I see her as a bully and an arrogant jerk.

Never thought I'd be saying that, but here we are.

All for the cost of a worn-out 747.

Gotta hand it to Qatar, they are absolute masters at bribery.

If there is one thing I learned from thoroughly reading the Bible, it's that God is a narcissistic, uncaring asshole.

Perhaps this is exactly what a Christian is?

Trump has invented and created whatever problems he thinks he is fighting against today.

10 months ago this country was peaceful and civil, and we followed the law.

I don't understand the strategy one bit.

The Republicans have complete control of Congress, SCOTUS, and the White House. If Trump is impeached and convicted for his personal conduct, they still have all the power, "Just Dance" Vance as POTUS, and a new VP.

Why protect Trump? Would he protect you?

Mike Johnson ignores a question about when he'll swear in Rep.-elect Grijalva and walks away

I would go a step further. Prop 13 assessed value should be tied to living in the property at least 51% of the time yourself.

But I thought it already was.

China doesn't have all those job-killing regulations like the U.S. does, so this is largely the result of unencumbered freedom!!

News today that ICE shot a woman is chilling. The videos online show that there are some abusive, masked thugs masquerading as law enforcement.

Nobody deserves this. The courts need to step in.

I am just happy that she is benevolent with her power.

That's rare these days.

Trump put them out of business, and now Ernst wants to bring him in as the hero who saves them from.....Trump?

Are you suggesting that Donald Trump is full of shit?

Because I am.

Not where I live.

If you have the option, life is too short to squander half of it in shitty weather.
