Significant portions of Article I of the U.S. Constitution were removed from the version published on Congress’ official Constitution website. Large parts of Section 8(which outlines the powers of Congress) were deleted, and Sections 9 and 10,

"We will impeach and remove the president for his many crimes" seems like a good midterm election pitch to me idk

This past week, the 79-year-old president announced he’s ended six wars (some that have been going on for centuries), asserted that windmills drive whales insane, called for Beyoncé to be prosecuted, claimed Obama committed treason and complained a convicted pedophile “stole” teenage girls from him.

Welcome to the revolution...(checks notes)...Thomas Kinkade's heirs

Ok but Schrodinger's cat is Definitely dead by now.

Ghislaine Maxwell Can’t Help But Notice Interview Room Covered In Plastic Sheeting TALLAHASSEE, FL—Perplexed that the Department of Justice had chosen a setting with such strange decor to ask her about Jeffrey Epstein’s co-conspirators, Ghislaine Maxwell confirmed Thursday that she couldn’t help but notice her interview room was covered in plastic sheeting. “Wow, you’ve got the whole room tarped up—you guys doing some painting later?” said Maxwell […]

Overheard: I'm surprised the nickname “Pedofuhrer" hasn't caught on yet.

SCOTUS is allowing Trump to fire (at least for now) the three Democrat-appointed members of the Consumer Product Safety Commission.

The CPSC regulates safety of everyday consumer products.

Guess who recently sued the agency and claimed that it's unconstitutional?

This administration, and the modern GOP, is NOT conservative. It is REGRESSIVE. They want the Gilded age back. They want slavery. They want Dickensian levels of poverty and income inequality. It is sickening and absurd. It is a worldview built on hate, greed, and gluttony.
