There has never been a clearer example of the fact that we do not have a legislature in the United States right now. Trump tells them to vote no, so they all vote no. Then Trump changes his mind and they all change their votes. That is autocracy. Vote them out!

Every time I hear someone compare Trump to Caesar, I think of what happened to Caesar in the end.

When he’s compared to Hitler, I think what happened to Hitler in the end.

When he’s compared to Mussolini, I think of what happened to Mussolini in the end.

This is what gives me hope.

Sorry Neal. I will only accept Veep for the Supreme Court.
Neal Katyal says he's working on a TV show that he describes as "The West Wing for the Supreme Court," and my question is, have We As A Society not suffered enough
A Brief History Of Awful TV Shows About the Supreme Court
The concept of “The West Wing for the Supreme Court” might be the only thing more upsetting than the actual Supreme Court.

Was thrilled to help consult for this fantastic John Oliver segment on the tragic plight of U.S. public media and why, if we hope to be a democracy, we still need public media for so many things that commercial media will never provide. Deserves a wide viewership. www.youtube.com/watch?v=yknM...

Security cameras caught this Border Patrol agent ditching a loaded gun behind a tree at a restaurant parking lot. Is this standard training for Bovino's Border Patrol agents?

It's like they're actively looking for increasingly insane detention possibilities, just to see how much their base will accept.

“I’d release my taxes but they’re under audit.”

“I’d release the Epstein files but they’re part of an active investigation.”

“You’ll have it in two weeks.”

America is tired of the excuses and lies.

Here is Moshe Hoffman, formerly of MIT Media Lab and now a lecturer at Harvard Econ, thanking Epstein for introducing him to Ehud Barak and then waxing philosophical about why men are "attracted to young curvy women" as a part of "taste."

The Saudis are meeting with Trump tomorrow. There is a lot they want from the US govt. And they have been enriching Trump and his family over the past several months with one deal after another to make sure they get it. Something tells me they will get what they want.

The UK outright engaged in stationary banditry, stealing from the poor to give to the rich, all in order to appease the most petty xenophobe bigots on earth. And I feel sure it won't even work on the Home Secretary's terms, ultimately all this will strengthen not weaken Reform.
The Sun has been told Home Secretary Shabana Mahmood will on Monday propose confiscating jewellery, watches, necklaces from asylum seekers to meet asylum costs

This reflects the most controversial aspect of the Danish scheme - the Jewellery Law. The toughest Labour MPs thought this was OTT

i just read something about grief from C.S. Lewis and his book, “A Grief Observed”

basically, when someone you love dies, it isn’t just them that you miss, but the parts of yourself that person brought out of you that can never be brought out again.

i feel that with my dad.
