ah, perhaps instead of pumping millions into endless factional infighting Dem donors could invest in making local Dem organizations genuine civic spaces that can reach people during and between elections

You can't really complain about the party not nominating a more moderate candidate when the moderates tried to run a disgraced sex pest and notoriously creepy sociopath who's about as likeable as ebola. That was their unforced error, it's that decision you should be angrily condemning.

it's time for journos to start asking Johnson meta questions

"Speaker, on 5 occasions last week you said 'I haven't seen it' when asked about news events w/big implications for public policy. Do you ever read the news, and do you agree it's problematic for the Speaker to be so woefully uninformed?"

Fantastic new development in AZ06 race.

I just donated to my local food bank. If you can, you should too. People are already suffering but next month, in particular, is going to be so difficult.

“Again and again, the government has claimed that they are targeting criminals and getting rid of the worst of the worst, and this is in reality who they’re going after.”

you can’t really call this anything other than cowardice

You guys wanna see a dead body

the president has destroyed the east wing of the white house without so much as a word of input from anyone else to build a royal ballroom paid for with bribes

learned recently that the guy who wrote "The Night Before Christmas," clement clarke moore, also wrote a takedown of thomas jefferson's proto-scientific racism in "Notes on the State of Virginia," basically accusing him and others of making it up to justify slavery. which, that's right.

MSNBC Grandmas in Skechers seamlessly reclaiming the frog from 4chan Nazis in about six weeks has gotta be the political upset of the century.

"Violence is when people cannot afford a house, violence is when a voter cannot afford medicine, violence is when mothers continue to lose sons and daughters to greed and guns," Rev. Valtoria Jackson told about 600 people at a "No Kings" protest in Montgomery. (Ralph Chapoco/Alabama Reflector)
