Doctors say that vaccines are the best way to protect children against measles. A guy who eats dogs and snorts cocaine off toilet seats says they should just swim in untreated sewage water instead. For busy parents, it can be hard to know who to trust.

congrats to the mens hockey team for letting a demented 80 year old sex criminal steal your shine and make himself the center of your accomplishment

Statistically, someone should probably check their hard drives.

It's certainly insolence in Trump's case, but to be honest several members of said Court are trying their damndest to hand over their power to him.

As Congress has done.

This is true, but it's been true for about 40 years now.

"Nothing" will continue to be Job One right up until there ARE no more Republicans.

I was educated in America so maybe I'm missing some details, but I don't remember a past US Department Secretary who knew nothing about their own Department, which was openly run by their fucktoy while the Secretary just posed for pictures...

Don't congratulate John Roberts or the Supreme Court.

Congratulate Rick Woldenberg, the Chicago-area leader of Learning Resources, an educadtional toy company that had the courage to sue the president of the United States to save his family business.

As well as everyone else who stepped up.

Please read this long but important thread from an immigration defense attorney.

If this administration is permitted to scale its current abuse, neglect, and inhumane treatment of immigrants to the breadth and scope for which they’re currently planning, we’ll all be witness to mass atrocities.

I'm not sure this is true. Not that he's a citizen, he clearly is that, but there are a surprising number of Latino folks, citizens and otherwise, who really identify "illegal immigrants" as a major concern, and more than I would expect are strongly in favor of the Trump (Miller) approach.

The concentration camps known from "last time" are all known by the towns where they were built. They're not "Camp 47" or whatever, they're known as "Auschwitz", "Treblinka", "Belzec", etc.

Hutchins might want to consider what "Hutchins" may be remembered for in the future.

Thankfully it was just the building itself that must have done it, in Tim's mind. Daddy T can still make it all better, out of his well-known lifetime dedication to racial equality.
