Absolutely. 💯.
And to make matters worse, they show up with their "ackshually" comments to tell you how much you don't understand about anything. Ffs, if you can't acknowledge that we *wouldn't* be in this position if Harris had won, you've got no understanding of how politics works.

Imagine if "combating homelessness" meant housing people, not brutalizing and disappearing them.

DC statehood is now an imperative. No more dicking around. Next Dem majority, get it done immediately.

F'ck him and the f'ing horse he rode in on. UGH!!!!

I'm sorry; change that to *golf cart* he rode in on, not horse. (Id absolutely love to see him try to ride a horse, but that's never going to happen.)
OP - Forgive my ranting - sometimes I just need to let loose. Rage overcomes me.

President Trump taps federal law enforcement agencies to police Washington, D.C. President Trump has ordered federal law enforcement agencies to begin policing the streets of Washington, D.C., citing crime in the city.

I wanted to know if this was just an internet rumor, exaggeration or what - here's a link for this of us who value sources. (I'd love to see citations for sources become a requirement here lest we turn into another FB)

Probably actually got targeted bc he didn't pay licensing fees to use the "Trump" name.

I read that as "wankers" and thought, yes, a nice British epithet would fit the bill.

For off-the beaten-path choices:
1 The Education of Little Tree
2 Pilgrim at Tinker Creek
3 Travels in a Tree-top by naturalist Charles Conrad Abbott
4 Mrs. Mike (based on the true story of a young woman's life in the Canadian wilderness at the turn of the century) -wins for best WORST title, too.

Is this an on-purpose portmanteau of gaudy and jaunty? Or just a happy accident? Either way, that's an awesome new word.

I'm imagining you probably just meant gaudy, though, bc nothing attached to Trump could ever be light-hearted enough to be jaunty.

Ah, the Burger-meister Meister-burger. I wouldn't be surprised if he needed to get out some aggression, though, considering he didn't have any toys growing up.

Exactly! The real spelling of her name is "Jizzlane" Maxwell.

Where, in God's name, is the rest of the team? Get off the f*cking bench people! We have a slam-dunk issue that should easily invoke unequivocal unity.
