If only they knew where to find a group of people who knew how to balance sound levels
Apropos of nothing....
I prefer a United States that led by example.
Your buddy decides to start a fight, you realize that if your buddy throws a punch, the victim is just going to start swinging and might even hit you. So to stop that from happening, you go ahead and stab the guy with a knife.
Our administration's justification for the mess we're in now.
I have a feeling that the timing of an exit strategy in Iran is utterly dependent on the timing of the Midterms
Now we know what Cassandra felt like ...
So we're officially at the 'let them eat cake' stage of the monarchy...
After witnessing the total lack of any kind of outrage for Dear Leader, is it any wonder that the GOP is slow-walking any sort of action against Rep. Gonzales?
Is the growing furor over Rep Gonzales and his odious behavior a trial balloon for GOP members to see if they can go after someone in their own party as precursor to (finally) starting to go after Dear Leader without the GOP Rage Machine going after them?
It's so indicative of where we're at and how we get here when so-called prestigious bastions of news post non-sourced stories simply to garner clicks and curry favor for access.
There's not even a hint of journalistic integrity anymore.
In the criminal justice system, sexually based offenses are considered especially heinous. In the criminal justice system, the people are represented by two separate yet equally important groups: the police, who investigate crime; and the district attorneys, who prosecute the offenders.
When anyone in the current administration gets cornered, they immediately deflect by making accusations against their accuser (often unwittingly revealing their own crimes), and trying to gain control of the narrative.
Against a functioning media, this wouldn't work...
Wow, Homan is really dancing a fine line between comically parsing words and outright lying.
I hope the media calls him on it ... HAHAHAHAHA.
You know, I remember when an Attorney General lying under oath to Congress would have been a big deal.
If you're more concerned about an American citizen singing at halftime of the Super Bowl then you are about the Epstein Files, you may need to examine your priorities.
Sir Ian McKellen performing a monologue from Shakespeare’s Sir Thomas More on the Stephen Colbert show. Never have I heard this monologue performed with such a keen sense of prescience. Nor have I ever been in this exact historical moment.TY Sir Ian, for reaching us once again.

It's not really a concession if the 'concession' just means doing the minimum of what you were supposed to be doing in the first place
Is releasing the movie Melania the "let them eat cake "moment that finally starts the dominoes falling? It would be on point if after everything it's something like that that finally does it.
When Grammy Award winning stars have the courage to voice their outrage while your elected representatives continue to hide behind a false sense of decorum... I think we've found one of the reasons we're in the shit we're in.
If you've ever wondered how Germany and Italy could let it happen *gestures broadly* look around.
Doing the same things (and even adding things like long-distance sound weapons) but just being sure not to do it in front of as many witnesses is NOT my idea of de-escalation....
Boy, the Epstein Files realty must be bad.
If media doesn't say, "In a blatant attempt to lie and mislead the American people, Noem/Miller/Vance/et. al, has issued the following statement..." then they are doing a grave injustice to the American people and are complicit in what is happening.
Unless people are held responsible for their actions, and in a meaningful substantive way, it will happen again.
“Get it all on record now — get the films — get the witnesses — because somewhere down the road of history some bastard will get up and say that this never happened.”
Dwight D. Eisenhower, after visiting liberated concentration camps in April 1945
Has there ever been a group of people more unprepared and unwilling to step up to the moment and actually do something than Democrats?
If 3I/Atlas is an alien ship, they're probably rolling up the windows and locking the door as they go past Earth.
Just read the 25th Amendment (you know, for kicks, no other reason)... and it's pretty straightforward.
All it requires is that Congress does it's elected duty and determine the fitness of the President and make a decision thereof.
We're doomed.
Did not have "Iran and Minnesota having so much in common" on my bingo card.
Yes, I know what's happening in Iran involves thousands of casualties, and I don't mean to diminish that... but they're both fighting the same fight against an extreme authoritarian government bent on suppressing rights.
Any time anyone can access that 60%, they win landslides and have clear mandates... but they are often forgotten in favor of catering to the 20% of the media's choice.
They are also a fearsome force when roused to action.
That's where we stand in America today.
