On behalf of Bobby Jindal and Andrew Yang, how dare you sir

Respectfully, you need to realize that the party is the problem. It is unfixable.

AOC (and Zohran) need to lead a defection

What you really need is several parties and coalition government, not structural minority protection.

Counterpoint: fuck you I got mine

Really really excited for whatever your next chapter is, John. You are not only good; you’re necessary.

No, he was knighted by Robert Baratheon

Ben Carson kicking himself that he could have gotten cash instead of furniture

Of course I would not counsel anyone otherwise. But one may readily conclude that speaking out after being indicted in an obvious show proceeding designed to suppress dissent, is an acceptable risk.

What if the purpose of the indictment is to prevent a candidate for political office from speaking to the press?

Never thought I’d be nostalgic for the “she did drugs once!!” conservatism of the 80s but here we are

My two favorite musical acts are Kraftwerk and John Denver, so I get it.

Can someone translate “play stupid games, win stupid prizes” into Latin

Admonish them gently for being late, praise them heartily for being right

I didn’t see the subreddit name and assumed this was about a waifu pillow. Not sure what’s worse

I’m old enough to remember six weeks ago when their governor was a Reasonable Republican who Talked About Civility

“It’s out of our hands,” says (checks notes) the United States Congress.

It’s good that he left rather than get marginalized under new ownership. I hope he can find a way to get Propublica or a similar organization to fill the void left by the networks and PBS.

It’s never going to reopen.

The inability of someone to shut up and go away when they desperately need to shut up and go away is itself disqualifying

Maybe I’m dense but I don’t understand why the Grijalva situation is any different, since theres no dispute she was validly elected and meets qualifications.

Right, I get that the speaker is elected by the whole body and the issue is moot if the Dems have a majority. But if the GOP has a majority (thanks to gerrymandering and election fraud) what’s to stop them from passing exclusionary house rules?

A bit outside the box here, but would a Grijalva constituent who needs services typically provided by a congressman have standing to sue?

I don’t understand the distinction between Grijalva and new members? Suppose the speaker kicks out the democrats and swears in everyone else. Or passes a house rule saying no democrats allowed. What power does a federal judge have to stop that?

What’s stopping them from refusing to swear in any and all democrats on January 3?

It’s like if Ted Bundy issued press releases.
