Thank you Congressman Neguse for laying it plain.

Whoever is the next Democratic presidential candidate should vow to tear down the hideous ballroom and rebuild the Rose Garden, I bet there are a lot of votes in that

Actually, I meant so far this month.

Well. I agree. So, how many Halloween movies has she made you watch so far?

The near daily barrage of deadly mass shootings in America feels like low level warfare against normal citizens who just want to live in peace. And because people keep electing Republicans who won’t do anything about it there’s no solution in sight.

Kimmel’s refusal to capitulate stands out because so many other well-situated peopleβ€”those with the resources, platform, and power to stand up to the president, including, initially, the leaders of ABCβ€”have surrendered, withdrawn, or become Trump sycophants themselves. One by one, American leaders supposedly committed to principles of free speech, due process, democracy, and equality have abandoned those ideals when menaced by the Trump administration. These cascading acts of cowardice from the people best positioned to resist Trump’s authoritarian power grabs have made Trump seem exponentially more powerful than he actually is, sapping strength from others who might have discovered the courage to stand up. Defending democracy requires a collective refusal to acquiesce to lawless behavior from many different sectors of society. All of these powerful people trying to save their own skin have effectively multiplied Trump’s attacks on constitutional government, by enhancing a false sense of inevitability and invincibility.

Kimmel’s defiant return highlights one of the most disturbing dynamics of Trump II, that so many people in positions of leadership are chickenshit frauds who would rather fold in advance than put up anything resembling a fight www.theatlantic.com/ideas/archiv...

Exactly. There are plenty of qualified people who could run in the primaries against these people who are afraid to do their jobs.

Here’s an idea. The west has held about $300 billion in Russian assets. They should release 2 billion a day to Ukraine until Russia stops the war, or they disperse it all.

Then Russia will have to accept the war has an additional real cost per day

There are violent extremists on the left but they are not in charge of the party. You can find them on social media, not in the halls of power.

The violent extremists on the right are in congress, on courts, and sitting in the Oval Office.

This is an extremely interesting theory and very plausible scenario that fits all the evidence.

Important to remember that everyone involved in renaming the DoD to the Department of War is afraid to take the subway.

Trump and the GOP are hellbent on killing our kids. Whether it’s no gun control or defunding pediatric brain cancer research/trials.

Our kids deserve better than Trump and his feckless Republicans.

Shabbat shalom. May a miracle happen here to stop Netanyahu, Trump, Putin, and all the other monsters from creating a living hell on earth for so many.

When we get a real president, I want Jackie’s rose garden restored. I want the Kennedy Center name put back. I want that $200M gold-plated ego chamber demolished. And I want the Saudi jet dropped in the water outside Mar-a-Lardo and turned into a nonstop immigrant welcome tour.

This is the best thing you'll see today, and I say that as a person who wrote something awesome today and does not lack for confidence.

Turns out the best way to make a deal to get out of your child sex trafficking conviction is to have one of your clients get elected president.

The secret to Baltimore's extraordinary year This April, Baltimore saw five homicides.

1. We interrupt this programming for some LEGITIMATELY GOOD NEWS

Violent crime in Baltimore has PLUMMETED to historic lows

How did the city do it?

Baltimore adopted a comprehensive set of "woke" policies, treating violence as a public health issue
