  1. They call it the American dream because you have to be asleep to believe it. -George Carlin

  2. The Fox "News" host's reaction is a man angry and upset reality is intruding into his carefully constructed fantasy.
    143
  3. Honestly, I think people like Marjorie Taylor Greene proves that we need to make passing a civics test a prerequisite for running for office.

  4. I'd call Trump a clown, but I wouldn't want to insult all clowns from Ringling Brother to the Insane Clown Posse.
    58
  5. She was right, he was going after her. However, he wasn't attacking her character, he was attacking her words and her stupidity. She has NO character.
    54
  6. A real father wouldn't offer up one of his children to save himself, he'd sacrifice himself to save his children.

  7. Did you see them attacking Harrison Ford for saying punching Nazis isn't just permissible, it's morally correct? They're upset claiming he's calling for people to punch Republicans. I mean, WE didn't call them Nazis, THEY admitted being Nazis!
    25
  8. The religious right believe they have the right to do whatever they want and use religion as an excuse for terrible behavior. Jesus was about kindness and compassion, someone following him would be the same. They aren't followers of Jesus, they just fanboys and fangirls. I think if Jesus were real and here right now, he'd be weeping tears of blood for all the hate and evil done in his name.

  9. RFK Jr. is proof positive that political acumen isn't hereditary.
    17
  10. Hearing MTG try to get a chant of "Impeach Biden" going was just hilarious. Did she REALLY think she was going to get the crowd there to start chanting that?
    16
  11. I'd say ol' W has a guilty conscience.
    16
  12. He's politically clever though. The worst consequences of his actions will be after he's left the governorship, and it endears himself to the Republican party. It might give him a leg up in politics. It's disgusting this is how the fascist, I mean Republican party works.

  13. I'd say ol' W has a guilty conscience.
    15
  14. Cruelty is the point.
    15
  15. What do you call a line of Trump supporters standing ear to ear? A wind tunnel!
    13
  16. Teddy Roosevelt was two things you never see in the Republican party today. A progressive and an intellectual.
    12
  17. Some people were calling Rick Scott Voldemort. That's insulting! Voldemort isn't nearly as evil as Rick Scott!
    12
  18. Let's not forget that Elon Musk was fired from his first job as an executive for gross incompetence. The reason he's rich is because he held stock in that company when it was bought by Ebay, not because he's smart.
    11
  19. It was totally mutual. Fox News said, "you're fired, get your shit and get out," and Tucker agreed he'd leave before armed security threw him out on his ear.
    10
  20. This is what happens when you try to substitute fantasy for reality, reality come crashing in.
    10
  21. It's like trying to kill a single cockroach by burning the whole building down. Sure, you got the roach, but you've hurt yourself a LOT more.
    10
  22. I've bled more shaving.

  23. It's called acting. She's got an agenda to push, and faking outrage sells that to her gullible viewers.
    9
  24. Biden IS moving to the middle, thing is the middle he's aiming at is THE middle, not the center point between the near left and the off-the-reservation extreme far right. For them, the center is far right and the center is far left, and that is so wrong it's pathetic.
    9
  25.  @kanetakeo268  One has to HAVE a testosterone level for one to have a dip in testosterone. Tucker looks like a doofus Ken doll, he has no testosterone.

  26. Remember when someone jump kicked Arnold Schwarzenegger a few years back? He didn't even get knocked down, just pushed forward a bit and looked back like, "did someone just bump into me?" He didn't even know he was attacked until someone showed him the video. Compare that to what Giuliani just claimed. One's a tough talker and the other is just tough.
    8
  27. If you are in charge or have access to classified information, you shouldn't be able to even sneeze without someone in charge of securing that classified information handing you a tissue.
    8
  28.  @benfrench727  And in a rant about Capitalism and the owner class. I swear, knowing he's dead and thankfully never had to witness the rise of Trump, I'd swear he's talking about Trump. Maybe he was psychic? ;)
    8
  29. Man, when someone's defense as to their incompetence is, "I don't read the newspapers," you know they're stupid.
    7
  30. Anyone else remember a couple of years back, Arnold Schwarzenegger was in South Africa doing some event there and some jackass drop kicked him? Ran at him, jumped, and kicked him right in the middle of his back with both feet. He stumbled forward a bit and looked back like, "did someone bump into me?" He even Tweeted later that he didn't realize he'd be attacked until he was shown the video. Now compare that to Giuliani and "almost dying" and feeling like he was shot by a tap on the back. One's a tough talker, and the other is just tough.
    7
  31. Of course, DeSantis waited this long. He's a Republican, a party that genuinely believes it can both have its pudding and eat it.
    7
  32. Make Orwell fiction again!
    7
  33. They see cruelty as strength. It's not, and compassion is not weakness.
    7
  34. He said, "beginning of time," not his birth. That's roughly 14 billion years!
    7
  35. I love that compilation of Republicans saying, "end quote." That kind of goes up there with making air quotes with your fingers. It's just a form of rhetoric used to emphasize a point, not sings of a faulty brain. No, signs of having a faulty brain is if you put an R after your name and believe that somehow makes you a better more moral human being while stripping your fellow citizens of their rights.

  36. Keep Santos in congress. He will not win reelection, and for two years he will sit as an anchor around the neck of the Republican party dragging them down into the muck with him.
    6
  37. Conservatives read the U.S. constitution the way the read the Bible. They look for the parts that confirm their ideologies and ignore the rest. The overlap with cut-and-paste Christian that quote Bible verses out of context is massive with the people that quote the 2nd amendment verbatim but can't tell you what's in the rest.
    6
  38. I will never understand how U.S. soldiers, marines, sailors, and airmen, some of the most patriotic and honorable people this nation produces, can dedicated and even sacrifice their lives to this crowd of craven, cowardly, and, quite frankly, evil people to ever slither across the face of the Earth.
    6
  39. Not only did Jesus demand his followers be kind and helpful to people in need, he also demanded an end to greed and to keep one's prayers private. In that respect, the GOP that take more than they need, kick down at the needy, and pray embarrassingly publicly. In other words, they aren't followers of Christ, so they aren't Christian regardless of the labels they give themselves.
    6
  40. "He's the physical embodiment of Whomp from Mario." Man, that had me rolling!
    6
  41. I'd say ol' W has a guilty conscience.
    6
  42. We fought a bloody war some 80 years ago to kill fascism, but we failed. It was wounded, but not dead, and now it's back with a vengeance.
    6
  43. Man, this guy has been living in a complete fantasy world.
    5
  44. J.D. Vance doesn't speak with any amount of respect or decency. The man has no honor.
    5
  45. Locked him out of the computer immediately. I'd wager 24 hours to clear his office.
    5
  46. I know plenty of my neighbors here in Oklahoma that are willing to fight if they have to, but they would never start one. My grandfather, born and raised here in Oklahoma, always told me, "Never start a fight, but always be ready to end one." Mullin standing up to pick a fight with the Teamster's Union president is profoundly not how any Oklahoman I know would behave.
    5
  47. I'm in Oklahoma. I got a decent education growing up, but my nieces and nephews are getting a subpar education today. Thanks governor Stitt, thanks for ruining Oklahoma.
    4
  48. This has never been done in our country before. True. Why? Because we've never had a president so blatantly flout the rule of law before and attempt to take this nation for himself.
    4
  49. She'll probably cover Tom Petty's You Don't How It Feels next and butcher that too.
    4
  50. When Marjorie Taylor Greene shakes her head, it sounds like someone shaking a spray paint can.
    4
  51.  @lifecloud2  The Beto O'Rourke method!
    4
  52. I swear, while it's not possible in an in-person interview, these interviews via satellite need to have the interviewer be able to mute the interviewee. This filibustering to push an agenda really needs to be stopped.
    4
  53. greed destroys everything.
    4
  54. Hearing Trump say family like two dozen times in a few minutes made the word lose all meaning.
    4
  55. Never interrupt an enemy in the process of making a mistake.
    4
  56. The sad thing is, the people that need to hear this either won't hear it or won't accept it if they do. They already live in a fantasy world and no amount of reality is going to change their mind.
    4
  57. He's not just wrong, he's wrong at the top of his lungs.
    4
  58. I'd say ol' W has a guilty conscience.
    4
  59. Q Anon's attempts to halt child sex trafficking is having the opposite effect. With their accusations of pedophilia being cast willy nilly, it's giving protection to people who are genuinely hurting children. They can claim false accusation and\or persecution.
    4
  60. My sympathy for person who has been abused ends when that person starts abusing others.
    4
  61. He has a reputation. All bad. Lies, deceit, cheating, stealing, dodging responsibility, refusing to pay his workers and lawyers. It's a solid reputation, just one that's seated in disgrace and soaked in bullshit.
    4
  62. Didn't know I was going to watch a grown man being spanked in public.
    4
  63. My grandfather was in the U.S. Army Air Corp right when they switched over to being the U.S. Air Force. Never saw combat as he was in logistics. Full career and retired a Master Sergent. Sadly, he passed away a week ago today, but if were still alive, he'd have some choice words for this valor stealing buffoon.
    4
  64. I'm from and currently live in Oklahoma. I would say, getting logic and reason to sink into the average Oklahoman's head would require a drill and a pump. So many of my fellow Oklahomans are thicker than hardened concrete.
    4
  65. I used to go with my grandmother to Tinker Air Force Base and they had Fox News on at the pharmacy waiting area, the BX, and even the goddamned Burger King on base. I once spent an hour and a half waiting for my grandmother's prescription to be filled being held hostage by Fox News's coverage of the funeral of Michael Jackson. Felt like I needed a shower after that.

  66. Marjorie Taylor Greene isn't a congresswoman, she's a blogger with a congressional side-hustle.
    3
  67. I said this on the series 1 set, but I'll repeat it here. I have two nephews, one is 9, the other is 19. If my 9-year-old nephew showed me pictures of himself as a superhero, an astronaut, and a firefighter, I'd say it was cute and creative. If my 19-year-old nephew did the same (he plays football), I'd be taking him to the hospital to check for brain injuries. This is SOOOO juvenile!

  68. Remember a few years back someone drop kicked Arnold Schwarzenegger? Jump and kicked with both feet right in the middle of his back. Happened on camera, and he just looked like, "oh, someone bumped into me!" Later said he didn't realize he was attacked until he saw the video. Giuliana is like that but in reverse. Also reminds me of that woman in some public hearing that got tapped on the back of the head with a folder and pulled a soccer flop to end all soccer flops, falling out of her chair dramatically, squalling like she just got punched.

  69. Republicans love our troops... as a shield against any political attacks.
    3
  70. The fact that the right likes to call being woke a mind virus, they are totally unaware of the actual mind virus, fascism, eating away at their brains.
    3
  71. Stitt only cares about two things, money and himself. If he thinks he can get an extra nickel, he'd sell his own children. Anti-woman, anti-education, anti-tribal lands, and I would say, anti-American.
    3
  72. Would only all police be as worthy as Officer Goodman.
    3
  73. Man, that was a leap Evel Knievel couldn't make on a rocket powered motorcycle.

  74. I know I'm sick of Red Dog Republicans.

  75. MTG is what you get when you elect a guest from the Jerry Springer show.

  77. Bill Burr is one of my favorite comedians. He's not afraid to call out both sides for their silliness and stupidity.
    3
  78. As a white guy, it constantly baffles me how other white people truly believe they're exceptional simply because of their skin color. They always borrow the accomplishments of people who did great things but also happened to be white, as if simply sharing their skin color means they're the same. If the only thing exceptional about you is your skin color, as it is with white supremacists, there is nothing exceptional about you.
    3
  79. A tough guy not afraid to vote for a woman and support people who are having a harder time than he is. Dave Bautista is one hell of a man, need more positive male role models like that.
    3
  80. I don't like Pizza Hut. Oh, not because of their Book It program, and not because they're promoting a book about a trans kid, those don't bother me in the slightest. I don't like Pizza Hut because their pizza sucks. Though, I'd eat a thousand Pizza Hut pizzas before eating a single shitty Papa John's pizza.
    3
  81. You can also easily defeat a shipping container wall, unless they filled them with concrete, with a goddamned Sawzall and get WAY more people through it faster than with a pair of ladders.

  82.  @marty4278  Oh, terrible shame!
    3
  83. If you're going to lie to protect yourself, be consistent. Telling conflicting and mutually exclusive lies is a surefire way to tell someone is guilty as hell.
    3
  84. Her husband should be impeached and removed. He was never unbiased and lied under oath to get his appointment. This cannot stand!
    3
  85. If it weren't for all the double standards, Fox News wouldn't have any standards at all.

  86. 🖐

  87. Media's job was never to present both sides and walk away. It's to break things down, try to gather as much useful information as possible and present only what is verifiably true. If you're "both sidesing" an issue, you're failing hard as a journalist. If you're only representing one side and ignoring the other or dismissing the other, you're a propagandist. Media is meant to be a bulwark against state lies and propaganda, not a delivery system for it.

  88. The only, ONLY, reason you should ever be drinking your own urine is if you are in a life-or-death situation and can't find clean water as a stopgap until you can.

  89. Not just wrong, wrong at the top of her lungs.

  90. Never interrupt your enemy when they're making a mistake.

  91. Biden is sharper at almost 80 than the entire Republican party.
    3
  92. I will disagree with you about us having a functional democracy. We have a thoroughly dysfunctional democracy. It's held together with duct tape and chewing gum. In a way, we owe Donald Trump a debt of gratitude for showing us just how broken and dysfunctional it really is. He should be punished severely, jail time at worst. Hanging would be fitting for a man who committed treason and insurrection, and those gallows would need to be very wide to accommodate all his conspirators in congress.

  93. A parent can object to their children reading a book if they want. What they can't do is object to MY child reading a book they don't like.

  94. Morbid as this is, it would have been better had Pence been caught and either assaulted or outright murdered. Why? It'd have been impossible to pretend this was anything but a coup attempt with blood dripping from the president's fingers.
    2
  95. Republicans are the law-and-order party my hairy white ass.
    2
  96. When you started with the boxing analogy and suggesting the right isn't trying to improve, I started thinking of Mike Tyson biting Evander Holyfield. Then you made the reference at the end. Same wavelength.
    2
  97. We used to elect smart people. Corrupt, self-interested, overly ambitious, yes, but people who were generally smart and well read. MTG has the corruption, self-interest, and extreme ambition, but she suffers from terrible and incurable stupidity. I think a book touching her skin would be like a cross touching a vampire.
    2
  98. The problem here is that their deception is working. They just have to make a loud and splashy lie knowing the correction will be unseen by the vast majority of people. All people are going to remember is that Pete Buttigieg didn't know what was happening when they first heard about the issue. Lazy journalism and sensationalist propaganda have ruined American's ability to discern fact from fiction.
    2
  99. When it comes to The Bible, I say this: any book that can argue both sides of any argument is not a defense for any argument.
    2
  100. People who want to write books should read at least ten thousand books. They really need to understand the written word before they try to use it.
    2
  101. These NFTs were ALWAYS worthless.
    2
  102. Donald Trum says about MAGA, "we're very solid people." Yeah, thick as a brick and twice as dense!
    2
  103. This country is in dire need of a political enema. Flush out the excrement that is this Fascist movement NOW, or we WILL regret it later.
    2
  104. This is a direct result of the Republican party playing pattycakes with the Tea Party movement. They let crazy into their house and now its knocking things over, breaking things, and relieving itself all over the carpets.
    2
  105. What makes anyone thing any football star would make a good leader? Leader on the gridiron? Sure. Leader in crafting legislation and protecting society? They played a game where their heads were regularly subjected to harsh punishment and frequent concussions. I wouldn't trust anyone to lead who's willing to get beat in the head for money.
    2
  106. Man, it's almost like Donald Trump is easily predictable and an obvious traitor!
    2
  107. Nothing like a 100-year-old woman widowed by Nazis to standing up (so to speak) against some serious Nazi censorship sweeping through Florida and the Republican party.
    2
  108. My grandfather served in the U.S. Air Force since right before it changed from the Army Air Corps, never saw combat. He was in logistics. He served honorably and was just as important as anyone in a theater of war. Soldiers can't fight without supplies. This Majewski did important things, but he didn't see combat. It wasn't, in his opinion, filled with glory, so he lies and steals valor. If my grandfather were still alive, he'd have a lot to say about this idiot.
    2
  109. I'm an Okie too, about a decade younger than you. I always feel I'm surrounded by crazy people and represented by them too. Kevin Stitt is an idiot. And people voted for him twice, even after he screwed our children out of a quality education.
    2
  110. This is how a man acts when he's never been truly held accountable for any of his misdeeds or crimes. Now he's finally having to pay the piper and he doesn't like it.
    2
  111. The left's celebrities are more popular than the right's and it pisses them off to no end. Really brings a tear to my eye, mostly from the laughing I'm having at their expense.
    2
  112. If I were a MAGA strategist, I'd be demanding this bipartisan deal get pushed through and then crow about how, because of Trump's "strong leadership" <eyeroll> this border deal was pushed through and made "weak" Joe Biden had no choice but to accept it. Of course, I'm a more rational person than anyone in MAGA. They aren't a bright group.
    2
  113. You mean Tom Petty is more famous dead than Lara Trump is alive? Naw, you do go on!
    2
  114. I can't STAND that woman's voice. Her hissing S sounds just make me cringe.
    2
  115. Would that all Republicans had as much spine as Liz Cheney. I don't agree with her politics, but I do appreciate her integrity.
    2
  116. Goddamn it, do we REALLY need to fight WWII over again? We fought that war to END fascism! Now it's here! Vote these MAGA fascists out of office or we won't have a country anymore.
    2
  117. You'd think a man who is a doctor would understand how science works. George Carlin's words are echoing across the years. "Somewhere in the world is the worst doctor." Rand Paul is in contention for that honor.
    2
  118. State's rights is code for Republican authoritarianism.
    2
  119. Yes, madam speaker, I think a session on the floor of the house covering the birds and the bees discussion might be pertinent.
    2
  120. MTG is the trashiest of white trash freaks.
    2
  121. "You brought that into the conversation." No, seriously, this Arkansas senator brought it into the conversation. What a freak, and I mean the senator not the trans pharmacist.
    2
  122. Why solve a problem when you can use it to frighten people and keep your position of power?
    2
  123. This country needs a political enema. The Republicans, writ large, need a massive cranial enema.
    2
  124. If there's one thing I can't stand it's a cut-and-paste Christian. Someone who quotes the Bible out of context. I usually defuse them by demanding the previous and following passages and to put the passage they quoted into context. Nice to see someone actually do that here. Words mean nothing without context.
    2
  125. Here's hoping you guys reach 2 million subscribers before the end of the year and keep going.
    2
  126. MTG isn't a representative, she's a right-wing blogger with an elected position as a side-hustle.
    2
  127. Republicans are so weak that the only way they can win is to cheat.
    2
  128. Any time a conservative uses the words liberty or patriot, you know some shady stuff is going on behind the scenes.
    2
  129. If MTG's vocal chords became paralyzed, the collective IQ of this nation would instantly double.
    2
  130. Marjorie Taylor Greene could starve a zombie.
    2
  131. Not allowed to bring in through the back door what isn't allowed through the front door.
    2
  132. I blame the NRA for this raft of violence. Not for making guns easy to get (it doesn't help, for sure) or for lobbying on behalf of the gun manufacturers (again, it doesn't help). I blame them for making the culture in this country around guns and gun ownership horrifyingly sick and toxic. Guns went from a tool for sport and hunting as well as a last resort for self-protection to the solution for your problems. If we still viewed the gun only for sport and hunting, we wouldn't be in this mess.
    2
  133. They don't want to teach American history; they want to teach American mythology.
    2
  134. Call them what they are, goddamned fascists!
    2
  135. I swear, if MTG had a brain, she'd have lost it in a toilet years ago.
    2
  136. I have two nephews, one that's 9 and one that's 19. If my 9-year-old nephew showed me pictures of himself as a cowboy and an astronaut, I'd think it was cute and imaginative. If my 19-year-old nephew did the same thing, I'd be taking him to the hospital to check for head injuries.
    2
  137. Trump isn't the cause of Republican evil, he's a symptom. In that respect, he's a perfect representative for that party. It has devolved into psychopathy and needs to be burned to the ground. Let some genuine conservatives, people who want to reign in excess not micromanage people's lives, start a new party.
    2
  138. Michael Cohen is always entertaining to listen to.
    2
  139. Damn! Someone drop kicks Arnold Schwarzenegger a few years back and he says he barely felt it. Someone pats Rudy Giuliani on the back and he acts like someone tried to assassinate him!
    2
  140. Not only have Democrats not banned gas stoves, they haven't even submitted a bill to consider banning stoves. This is a literally totally unnecessary hearing.
    2
  141. Wait, you had to alienize Adam Conover? I thought he already was! ;) Naw, I really love Adam Conover. Great podcast and miss Adam Ruins Everything.
    2
  142. Did he think that maybe they sold out of the "cute white girl" dolls because it was Rockefeller Center and the majority of the people visiting that store were likely white and looking for the same thing, that being a doll that looks like them?
    2
  143. They know the election is secure. They know there isn't massive fraud. What they believe is they can trick their base into being afraid the Democrats are "stealing" elections to make them more motivated to vote in higher numbers while they gum up the works. It seems to be backfiring, making Republicans believe there isn't a good reason to vote because it's all fixed and thus make their propaganda a self-fulfilling prophecy.
    2
  144. Aw, don't compare Trump to Voldemort! Voldemort was competent!
    2
  145. Okay, I get it, people don't like the word Bitch because it's often used in a derogatory manner towards women. Fine. Context, however, is key. He's not calling women bitches or equating Josh Hawley to a cowardly woman, he's using the word to define weakness and lack of moral character.
    2
  146. Capitalism might work for some things, but not for everything. Medicine and news are two great examples of how a profit motive, greed, destroys what's good in the world. People's bodies and minds are sick because we can't afford medicine or the truth anymore, and it will destroy us as a nation.
    2
  147. Conservatives read the U.S. constitution the way they read the Bible. Looking for what they want to support their ideologies and ignore the rest.
    2
  148. The only polls that matter are the places people go to vote, not whatever skewed data gathering that gets pushed out by biased media groups. Worse, like measuring systems at the quantum level, they can change the results by attempting to measure them.
    2
  149. Of course MTG doesn't want us supporting Nazis overseas when she wants us to support her Nazi party here at home!
    2
  150. I'd like to show the founding fathers what idiocy has gripped our nation, the people looking to use the rules to try and destroy the rules so they can institute rules that are in complete abeyance of the laws set forth by our founding fathers.
    2
  151. I want Putin to invade too. I mean, he thinks he's getting the shit kicked out of him by the Ukrainians, just wait until Uncle Sam starts swinging. Hell, it'd be a two-fer. We'd break Russia AND liberate Ukraine without leaving our own shores! Win-win!
    2

  153. We're just about to cut our cable off. Going to streaming only. But the tax money being given to Fox is a travesty.

  154. Ron DeFascist needs to fall off the face of the earth.

  155. You can see and hear the anger, the sadness, the frustration, and the determination of this man on full display. Too bad he's an actor (a good one) and not someone in a position of power to help fix this mess.

  156. Expecting consistency from Republicans is like expecting wild lions not to kill.

  157. It's time to call a spade a spade. This man acts like Hitler, thinks like Hitler, and talks like Hitler. If we can't call someone who is distinctly Hitlerian Hitler, we will end up being destroyed by him.

  158. Donald Trump strikes me as the kind of guy you'd sit down to play a game of Monopoly with and he'd be the one making up rules as he went, stealing Monopoly Bucks, demanding rerolls, and generally making an already contentious game a royal pain in the ass to play because he thinks he always should win.

  159. Prager U is to education what crack cocaine is to healthy living.
    2
  160. It's a real shame, for Michael Cohen (not for us), that he didn't see this coming early and get the hell out of Trump's orbing. It might have messed up his legal career, but it certainly gave us a really large weapon to blow a massive hole in Donald Trump's ambitions.
    2
  161. I don't like politics. It's ugly, it's disgusting, it's filthy, and it's dividing. But I DO pay attention to politics. I pay attention because when people don't, they do things that will ruin lives, and one of those lives just be my own.

  164. If I were a doctor in this situation, I'd be in jail because I'd put my patient's care ahead of my own. I'd be happy to fight this in court and, hopefully, force people to see what reality looks like. Too bad I'm not a doctor.

  165. MAGA is a purity movement and purity movements always collapse. No one, NO ONE, is ever pure enough. Eventually, they fall upon themselves like rabid wolves.

  166. Tommy Tuberville is a white supremacist trying to tap dance and pretend he isn't one, unsuccessfully.
    2
  167. The thing that disturbs me most about this is how completely childish it is! I have two nephews; one is 8 and the other is 19. If my 8-year-old nephew showed me pictures of himself as a superhero, a cowboy, an astronaut, and a racecar driver, I'd think it was endearing and creative. If my 19-year-old nephew did the same thing, I'd be taking him to the hospital to see if he'd had a brain injury.
    2
  168. People don't think much. Just in general. They let other people do the thinking for them, tell them what to believe, what to do, what to buy, where to live, who to love, who to hate. It takes seeing a man with a monumental level if stupidity to realize how they've been misled. We need more Hershel Walkers running so that people realize that we really need more Raphael Warnocks running things, people that actually encourage people to think for themselves.
    2
  169. The sad thing is, even with this acknowledgement and realization of how he was lied to, the rest of MAGA is going to call him a traitor, you know, the one that confessed his crimes against the U.S. government.

  177. Remember a few years back someone drop kicked Arnold Schwarzenegger? Jump and kicked with both feet right in the middle of his back. Happened on camera, and he just looked like, "oh, someone bumped into me!" Later said he didn't realize he was attacked until he saw the video. Giuliana is like that but in reverse. Also reminds me of that woman in some public hearing that got tapped on the back of the head with a folder and pulled a soccer flop to end all soccer flops, falling out of her chair dramatically, squalling like she just got punched.

  178. I can't trust anyone for whom everything is somehow a transaction to be made, profit to be had, and only oneself to consider.

  179. I have a friend who is a Never-Trumper Republican and I asked him why we're sending arms and munitions to Ukraine. Without missing a beat, he said, "so we don't have to fight them (Russia) here." While I doubt that he believed Russia would invade the U.S., his point still stands. We're sending Ukraine our arms and munitions so THEY fight Russia and we won't have to send our soldiers to do it.

  183. Trump dementing further and further does worry me, but it's his continuing and deepening stupidity that worries me most. He really thinks putting a battery in water is like dropping a plugged-in toaster into water. Assuming both Trump and Biden are dementing and one of them is going to be president, I'd rather have the dementing but still smart Biden over the dementing and devolving deeper into stupidity Trump.

  188. You're all mistaken. Trump DID tell you what his medical system plan is. His plan is to keep saying there is a plan coming while doing nothing. His plan is to lie to you.

  190. Goddamned fascists.
    2
  191. I disagreed with John McCain and Mitt Romney politically, but I never had to question whether or not they lived in reality. All current GOP candidates, save Chris Christie, all live in MAGA fantasy land. You can't live in a fantasy world and any real good.
    2
  192. I'm not a Democrat, but I'll be damned to hell before I vote for the fascist Republicans. They've lost their collective minds and we have to stop them unless we end up in gulags and concentration camps.
    2
  193. Imagine believing or pretending to believe that not beating on people is somehow woke and unamerican. What a loser. Every damned time I think I can't be more embarrassed or ashamed of being an Oklahoman, some idiot from here gets on the national stage yelling, "hold my beer!"
    2
  194. This is why having a profit motive in a news organization is a terrible idea. Sometimes the truth hurts but it's important to hear it and understand it. Comfortable lies are like opium, it might feel good, but it'll kill you in the end.

  195. You can't shame a Republican for lying or being a hypocrite. You might as well try shaming a dog for being furry and having a cold nose.

  196. Take away the abuse, take away the nonsense attitude in congress, she'd still be trash. She's a 36-year-old divorced grandmother. I'd wager if she weren't in congress, she'd be living in a double wide trailer working at the Cheesecake Factory. And before you call me prejudiced, I live in Oklahoma and know a lot of people with the same story.
    2
  197. I have sympathy for people with mental illness and neurological issues... provided they aren't actively trying to harm me or people in general. Elon Musk has Autism. I'm sympathetic to Autistic people. I'm not the least bit sympathetic to Elon Musk because he's a greedy and self-centered man selling empty air to people who believe he's a genius. Hershel Walker appears to have CTE. I'm sympathetic to people who have CTE. No sympathy for the man trying to take the reigns of power not being able to express a singer coherent thought. Can we separate our sympathies from the dangerous people being used to hurt us? I can.

  200. Conservatives read the U.S. constitution the way the read the Bible. They look for the parts that confirm their ideologies and ignore the rest. The overlap with cut-and-paste Christian that quote Bible verses out of context is massive with the people that quote the 2nd amendment verbatim but can't tell you what's in the rest.
    2
  201. The reason they did this is because they don't like the idea of a Democratic president getting the credit for signing it into law. They don't serve the American people, they serve themselves and it's high goddamned time they get the fuck out.
    2
  202. It's pretty sad that Republicans think just having a black person in their party should automatically make black people vote for them. Not their policies, not the ideals, just having one black person. Yeah, not a good look.

  206. Which is more toxic, lawyer brain or politician brain? Why on Earth would I vote for a candidate that can't or won't directly answer a question?

  207. When conservatives lose elections, they won't abandon conservatism, they'll abandon democracy. Nip this fascist movement in the bud now, or it'll be a lot of shed blood to extricate it later.

  208. There is a sick culture around guns in this country, glad you aren't part of it.
    2
  209.  @tinaandro1178  The NRA is pushing this shit today. Sad thing is, the founders of the NRA would be rolling in their graves. They created the foundation to further understanding of gun and to educate people in proper ownership including proper gun safety. They understood guns were inherently dangerous items and needed to be treated as such, with care and responsibility or not at all. Parasites infested the organization and turned it from an enthusiast organization proper ownership and safety to an unpaid lobby group for gun manufacturers (that is, unpaid BY the gun manufacturers, they're paid by the idiots they terrify into buying guns). At this point, the organization is far too corrupt to be salvaged and needs doing away with.

  215. One way someone can tell when a person is guilty is when they tell multiple, mutually exclusive lies to cover themselves.

  216. You can tell by her tone she thinks all these things are bad, plus she knows the audience she's in front of also thinks this is bad. But it was recorded, and the Democrats are going to use this to show the American people what Biden had accomplished so far and what he's attempting to accomplish in the future and I really don't think most Americans are going to hear this and think it's bad at all.
    2
  217. I do understand why we'd keep Adolf Hitler's staff car, it's a historical artifact. But why on Earth would anyone want to pose with it or hold a political conference in front of it?

  218. Let's face it, they wanted him gone for a while. This speech was to save face because he is the most watched host on Fox.

  219. The Republican transition from conservatism to fascism is coming along very quickly.
    2
  220.  @jimelliott9153  No kidding... Ew!!!
    2
  221. They see the writing on the wall and are afraid that they'll get Trump again. They're worried because they know Republicans are trained to vote for any candidate with an R after their name. We've heard it from people in his administration that believes he did wrong but tell us they'll vote for him if he's the nominee. So, the people making money stoking fear in Republican voters realize they'll lose power if he's elected again and want to nip this in the bud.
    2
  222. I guarantee, if the shoe were on the other foot, if Barack Obama instigated a riot that attempted to take over the capitol building, he'd have been hanged by this point. The Republicans have lived by the motto, "one rule for me and another for thee." We need to make that end or we won't have a nation.

  229. These cringey men bad mouthing Taylor Swift makes me laugh. They're the kind of men that pretend to be virtuous, and then go trolling for women to sleep with. Saying she's ugly, undesirable. What a joke. If Taylor Swift had thrown herself at any of these men, they'd be bragging about having sex with the hottest chick ever. Saying she's dressed slutty, revealing? WHAT?! Christ, were they raised in Amish land or something? I've seen women go to church dressed in less!

  234. I'm upset at the video for a totally different reason. That food was not spoiled. They chucked it in a dumpster because they could write it off as a loss and still get paid. I'm actually amazed the dumpster wasn't lidded with a lock on it to keep people from taking it. It's criminal just how much perfectly good food supermarkets in the U.S. throw away. Don't we waste enough food as it is? I say good on these people for taking it back and using it!

  244. I am so glad I'm not a child today. I grew up in Oklahoma. OKLAHOMA! And we didn't have book bans when I was a kid. We didn't have revisionist history taught at my school. For crying out loud, my middle school, MIDDLE SCHOOL, brought in a survivor of Auschwitz and he brought in a mason jar with Zyklon B tablets. They weren't concerned about making me feel bad about history, they were concerned I LEARNED history! Now it's like opposite world in this state. Book bans, revisionist history, the whole nine yards.

  245. The major issue with the church and sexual abuse is that they see all sins, of which they count sexual impropriety as a sin be it rape or consensual infidelity, as being the same. Taking the lord's name in vain is the same as raping a child as they claim God would see it. It gives them permission to discount such activity as something they can ask God for forgiveness for instead of a mandate to protect their community from someone who would hurt them.
    1
  246. Tim Miller vs. Kari Lake is what it looks like when you have a conservative vs. a fascist. Someone who genuinely believes in his position so much he's willing to lose and regroup expecting people will eventually come to his way of thinking vs. someone who is so intolerant of any other opinion they need to enforce their ideology at the point of a gun (metaphorically no, genuinely later).

I don't care which side you're playing on, it's bizarre. The only time it's appropriate for a grown man to wear a Confederate uniform is if they are in a movie or TV show depicting the American Civil War. Period.

  270. Politicians. Christ. More worried about their jobs and the kickbacks and perks than they are about the people they serve. It's our fault, of course, for allowing these craven monsters to get a taste of power to begin with and it needs to be us to take them away from power, forever.

  282. It seems to me that there is one danger of an overzealous gag order, and that is Trump using it as another delay tactic. Every appeal slows down the process, delays when the trials start and subsequently when they end. He's attempting to push these trials until after the election supposing he can manage to reclaim the presidency and then stop all his trials altogether then pardon himself so he can't be charged, possibly attempting to change the system so he can never be charged even after leaving the office.

  294. I didn't much like Hillary Clinton either, but I voted for her. Trump is insane and I could see how he would act. Hillary Clinton might not have shared all my values, but she's at least demonstrated the ability to change her mind when she's given evidence or when enough people tell her she's wrong. Someone tells Trump he's wrong or shows him the evidence, he yells, "fake news," and proclaims himself correct forever. He can't admit fault.

  296. If you're a Republican voter and you love the Republican party, you need to vote against them until the party pulls its collective head out of its collective ass. If they keep going down this path, there won't be a Republican party, there'll only be the new Fascist party.

  301. My grandfather, listening to me talk about the state of the world always asks me, "well, why don't you run for office?" Well, for one thing, I still have my soul and I'm not willing to sell it for a popularity contest. You see any politician today get into trouble and what do you get? Cover up, distraction, a whole bunch of me, me, me! I could never be capable of being THIS selfish, so I could never make it into politics.

  302. Trump was shot at. That's not in dispute. Neither is that this was an assassination attempt. What is in dispute are his injuries. MAGA wouldn't consider anyone other than Trump getting nicked by debris during an assassination attempt to be heroic. With Trump, if they do manage to convince everyone he wasn't even touched by a bullet, they'd shift the goalpost fixating on the attempt, not the injury. They really want him to have taken a bullet heroically, and will see it as less if not, even if they won't admit it publicly.

That being said, let them have their plant-base fake meat substitutes. If they want to live that way, more power to them. I certainly won't be eating it.

  306. Damn. I gotta respect a man who is able to look at himself after doing such wrong and realizing he needs to change and try to become a better man. Too bad not enough people, especially in Traitor Trump's orbit, are capable of the same.

  308. And yet, if it were his state trying to prosecute someone he doesn't like or pass a law that would be prohibited by federal statute, he would be arguing "state's rights," until he was blue in the face. If it weren't for double standards, they'd have none at all.

  309. True conservatism is about holding onto the past and tradition. A functioning conservative movement wants to keep progress from charging forward without thought or consideration. I haven't seen a true conservative in my life, at least not one that claims to be a conservative. All the ones I see want to halt progress altogether, thinking they can stop the march of progress, and to drag us back to a time when they were most comfortable. I might be able to criticize my side equally, but my side isn't in danger of destroying everything the way the extreme right is.

  316. To be fair, had he warned the press, the military, anyone outside the bubble he was in, his life would have been in much more danger than it already was. Trump might have ordered the secret service to arrest him for treason, illegally obviously, but they likely would have done it. Of course, most of us would say we'd choose integrity over a megalomaniacal dictator, but it'd hard to know what we'd do with that gun pointed at our heads. We know what Pence did, the safest thing. Doing the right thing at the end matters, but much less if you dragged your feet and tried everything else first.

  318. There is a massive brain drain being led by the Republicans. Keeping people ignorant and stupid helps them keep power. Fine. But it also makes the nation less productive, less innovative, less capable. They want to make America great? Get the hell out of people's way. Promote education. Elevate the intellectuals. Smart people shouldn't make you feel stupid, they should make you proud they're on your side.

  321. If that mob of violent protestors had managed to get ahold of Mike Pence and do what they claimed they would, we'd be in a very different world. Do you think the impeachment trial would have gone the way it did if Republicans in congress were afraid for their lives if he stayed in power? Barring that, do you think the big lie would have as much traction if there was blood on their hands of the VP? I'm almost disappointed that mob didn't carry out their threat.

  331. A fetus is not a person, it's a collection of cells that may, if things go right, become a person. Until then, it's a parasite. It sounds grotesque for a person to describe what they believe to be a fully-fledged human being as a parasite, but from a purely clinical, purely scientific standpoint, that's what it is. Thing is, they don't all survive to birth. Miscarriages happen all the time. Even BEFORE things get that far, a fertilized egg can be flushed out because it didn't make it in time to implant. Yet, they would call that a person. A person is what survives outside the womb. Full stop.

  334. Again, this is the Trump family. Donald Trump's older brother, Fred Trump Jr. died and wished to be cremates and scattered because he very specifically did NOT want to be buried. What did they do? They cremated his remains, then buried them. There is no sentimentality in death for the Trump family.
    1
  335. They got into power by stoking fear, and they vote irresponsibly because they realize it won't hurt them. The Democrats vote responsibly so the Republican votes won't do anything. If they really had power and tried this, they'd be punished and hard at the next ballot.

  336. "When you pray, do not be like the hypocrites, for they love to pray standing in the synagogues and on the street corners to be seen by men … but when you pray, go into your room, close the door and pray to your father who is unseen.” Mathew 6:5-8 It's almost like these people don't read the Bible they're thumping at us.

  345. Voting is advanced citizenship. Too many voters are in remedial kindergarten. Those who only care about elections once every 4 years don't care about the nation. You can't just vote once every 4 years, once every 2 years, and then check out the rest of the time. We all need to pay attention and get involved. There's a reason leadership, and I use that term loosely, in this nation had become so pathetic. They know they can depend on people not paying attention while they take away our rights and rob us blind.

  348.  @cireenasimcox1081  The American religious right have been indoctrinated with the mythology of the United States being founded as a Christian nation by people who are as hardcore Christian as they are or are the ones propagating said myth. They actually believe they have the right to push whatever religious ideology they have on people because of that propaganda. Most of the founding fathers were nonbelievers, deists (not believing in a personal God or in Jesus but believing that some sort of god or godlike being created the universe), or were outright atheists. Thomas Jefferson actually freaking edited the Bible to remove all miracles and claims of divinity, but sure, this is a "Christian Nation." I'm glad you lived in more decent places than here.

  355. The Republicans are not, and never have been, supporting the troops. They support the military industrial complex. Smedley Butler, decorated marine and a major general, called it in 1935 by calling war a racket. It's the Republican's favorite racket.

They'll take over, piss off everyone, people will leave the church, blame the people in power, and a revolution will end with their heads coming off. If Christianity wants to survive, they NEED a secular government. There is no religion called Christianity, it's a blanket term that covers THOUSANDS of denominations, many totally antithetical to one another, and not one would be happy if a different denomination were in charge.

The Republican party wouldn't just have distanced themselves from Trump, they would have sprinted away from him so fast it'd make the planet shake. He wouldn't have simply been impeached; he'd have been removed. Tell me, wouldn't that be worth the life of a man willing to protect the man who would have gotten him killed?

"...You have clearly proved, that ignorance, idleness, and vice, are the proper ingredients for qualifying a legislator; that laws are best explained, interpreted, and applied, by those whose interest and abilities lie in perverting, confounding, and eluding them. I observe among you some lines of an institution, which, in its original, might have been tolerable, but these half erased, and the rest wholly blurred and blotted by corruptions."

  366. Politicians only care about power. They believe they have power because we let them believe that. We don't stand up, we don't speak out. Hell, most of us don't even vote. But they're mistaken. They're borrowing power from us, and if we all stand up and say we're going to take it back, you better believe they'll shape up and right quick.

They're VERY weak, so we need to pick up a political bat and beat that party back into the shadows.

    1
  377. I would have the capacity to have censored myself in that moment. I'd let loose a blue streak on Donald Trump. Then again, I doubt I have the real capacity to be a president. Biden knows if he lets loose such a blue streak, he'd be attacked as unhinged by the right and it would likely stick. So, good on him for having the self-discipline most of us don't.

  386. While I think Santorum is wrong about most everything, he is right that pure democracy is a bad idea. There's a reason our founding fathers made this nation a representational republic. People should be allowed to make personal decisions, private decisions, decisions that affect them. They shouldn't be allowed to make decisions that affect everyone else. Rights can't be up for a vote, lest people vote to take yours away. We can't put EVERYTHING on the ballot for people to decide. Yes, our system is corrupt, but replacing it with a worse system won't help anyone.

  389. Isn't he on the way out? I mean, yeah, he's right, but he's right when it won't hurt him to be right. Liz Cheney was right when it could disrupt her political career.

We elect one person, but they have to appoint hundreds of people to make this nation function, and that's on top of the 538 people we elect to congress, the state, county, city, and district representatives\leaders. If Joe Biden is slower, so what? He's got a team of many, MANY people doing everything and he's just there to pick between already fleshed out options. A golden retriever could do his job if we had the people already in place. I'm going to pick the guy who has a functional government built over the guy who's threatening to tear it all out and burn it to the ground after.

  407. Our founding father have got to be rolling in their graves. They might not have wanted just anyone to vote, to hold the franchise in the hands of the elite, but if you look at people like the MAGA Shaman over here running, you might agree with them. We can't have the stupidest, least informed, cultists running things. We need people of intelligence, of capability, of strong moral fiber, and of basic human decency running things. MAGA has none of that and they're taking what little of that was in the Republican party and throwing it away.

  412. Tucker Carlson is the shadow of a hollow shell of a man. In a way, I feel sorry for him. His early family life and upbringing ruined him. That sympathy evaporates the moment I see how vile, cruel, and, quite frankly, evil he currently is. Much like a boy who is sexually abused and then grows up to become a child sexual predator, you feel sorry for the child he was, not the monster he became.

  413. That's the problem with our government. Democrats get no credit for what's good and all the blame for what's wrong.

    1
  420. Donald Trump is tough? One good slap and he'd crumple to the ground in fits of tears. Tough people never talk tough and tough talkers are never tough.
    1
  421. Republicans have become so completely allergic to reality, they'd dissolve like vampires in sunlight were they exposed to a tiny fraction of it.
    1
  422. Imagine so pro-religion that you end up destroying people's rights and getting children raped. And people wonder why I'm an atheist.
    1
  423. The party itself has no ideas, so it's no wonder this walking example of CTE is being embraced by this party.
    1
  424. Mike Lindell is a prime example of why you shouldn't ever do cocaine. The man totally fried his long ago and can't understand much of anything anymore.
    1
  425. Did they really think acting like children playing a game of tag and yelling, "nuh-uh, you didn't tag me" would work in a legal system with definitive rules and regulations?
    1
  426. I never liked the term woke. When it was being used by the left, it was usually meaningless virtue signaling. Say you're woke but never actually try to fix the problem you've become woke to. Now it's a cudgel being used by the most repugnant and twisted people to attack things that are genuinely good for our society. It's the new scarlet letter. And adopting a new term might retire the word woke, but it'll just end up the same way, just like Antifa, BLM, and Woke, noble ideas that get weaponized against us.

  427. Does anyone here actually believe this was a mutual decision between Fox News and Tucker Carlson. Raise your hand if you believe this. <Looks around> Huh, I don't see any hands raised.
    1
  428. J.D. Vance said Donald Trump exposed corruption in our government like no other president. He's right but for the wrong reason. Trump exposed the corruption of our government by enacting the most corruption by both volume and heinousness.
    1
  429. My Republican voting friend has been threatening to start a new party called the Sane Republican party ever since Donald Trump took over. Good luck, my friend. It couldn't be worse than this clown show.
    1
  430. There is Wonton murder going on? We need to call the Gazpacho police!
    1
  431. Ben Shapiro's primary job isn't watching movies and telling people why they did or did not like it. Everyone is a critic from a technical standpoint, but you should ask yourself why any one person's opinion is worth listening to over anyone else's. Siskel and Ebert spent decades watching movies and reviewing them. Ben Shapiro spent decades being a pathetic little wimp and trying to pretend he's tough.
    1
  432. We are fully into the 21st century. How hard is it for people to acknowledge the truth about the Civil War? It was about slavery. I didn't come up with that idea, YOU didn't come up with that idea. Wokeism didn't come up with that idea. The Confederacy itself came up with that idea. Their foundational document specifically say that slavery is why they left they Union and that white people are superior to black people. THEY told us why they left, why this war happened. Gordian's Knot has fewer twists than Republican logic on this issue. Stop pushing long-dead mythology as though it were fact.
    1
  433. We've got a senator that knows nothing and a journalist who knows how to do research. Yet, one has power and the other does not. We've got the wrong people in office.
    1
  434. Let's hope Trump's end mirror's Adolph Hitler's. Consequences coming to take him, and he takes the coward's way out.
    1
  435. It sounds to me like maybe some MAGA supporters and so-called leaders might benefit from going to the ghettos, as they call them, and actually talk to some poor black people. Gain some perspective on the people they're holding up as a prop to lie to poor white trash.
    1
  436. It seems to be a man explaining reality to someone who has lived their entire life inside a complete fantasy only to have them desperately playing Uno reverse card after reverse card in an attempt to maintain their fantasy.
    1
  437. Tucker Carlson seems to have an M&Ms kink. He's not upset they've got woke Ms now, he's upset they're messing with his kink!
    1
  438. I can think of one other that got fired from all 3, Keith Olbermann. A totally different man too, not a fascist liar like Tucker Carlson.
    1
  439. Anytime Donald Trump quotes someone beginning with, "sir," you know it's an outright lie. This general either A) doesn't exist or B) exists but said nothing of the sort.
    1
  440. Book banning. Those swastikas are becoming less and less hidden in the Republican party. Maybe if they actually read some books, they wouldn't be fascists.
    1
  441. If you're looking for a party that is pro religious freedom, don't go to the Republican party, they're the party of enforced religious orthodoxy. If you like religious freedom, being a Christian of any denomination, a Jew, a Muslim, a Buddhist, or an atheist, then you need to go with the Democratic party, the party of actual religious freedom.
    1
  442. I'm 43 and I have got no difficulties going to see a cartoon movie in public by myself. I'm not worried about looking like a "dirty old man" because I don't look or act like a dirty old man in public (or in private for that matter). Makes me wonder what's going through Herschel Walker's mind when he's in a room full of children now.

  443. Normal is just a setting on the drier.
    1
  444. The MAGA candidates aren't crazy, but their supporters damned well are.
    1
  445. A Christian is meant to be a follow of Christ, that is to say, someone who follows his example and tries to act the way he did. I've never met a Christian that was a follower of Christ, just fans of his. He wouldn't recognize any of them as his followers.
    1
  446. I was only listening, not watching, when I heard clips of Donald Trump talking and it was punctuated with the sound of an accordion. I was baffled by why I was hearing that, so I looked at the video and laughed at the animated accordion they added to his hands to illustrate the phantom one he's always playing.

  447. Garland didn't make the Republicans look like fools. They ARE fools. He simply illuminated that fact.
    1
  448. Is anyone surprised Trump picked a white supremacist and Christian nationalist for his VP?
    1
  449. Law and order party my ass.
    1
  450. Wow! I'd call that guy a douchebag, but douchebags help women and interact with their sex organs. This guy hasn't touched a vagina since being pushed out of one. Maybe if he did, he wouldn't be so psychotic.
    1
  451. I don't know what planet Republicans are living on, but it's not planet Earth.
    1
  452. A well-constructed bad guy is one that we feel good about having their butt handed to them by the good guy. In that regard, Trump is an excellent bad guy.
    1
  453. The man who gave a microphone a blowjob calling a classy lady nasty is hilarious.
    1
  454. If I had the power of God, I'd offer the GOP a sweetheart deal. Leave office and politics forever and I won't send you to Hell for all eternity.
    1
  455. We're living in a time where we have two parties, one of which is living entirely in a fantasy world of their own making.
    1
  456. Thank you for calling a spade a spade. I refuse to call the people on the right conservatives or Republicans, for they are neither. They are goddamned fascists and need to be called out at every possible turn.
    1
  457. This is a HUGE win for Mars. Here we are talking about cancelling their mascots instead of Mars profiting from child slave labor to gather the cacao they use to make their chocolate.

  458. How many white sheets and hoods do you think she has in her closet? I'll bet she wears swastika underwear too.
    1
  459. You can tell by the way that man forms his words that he's missing teeth. Maybe all of them. He needs a proper set of well-fitting dentures. He also needs a cranial enema to clean out the filth in his brain.
    1
  460. Political courage is an oxymoron.
    1
  461. MTG telling everyone that she'd put a book down if it were too ridiculous is laughable. She'd put it down because it's a book. She probably hasn't read a book since high school.
    1
  462. The second amendment fetishists have never been against tyranny, they've always been the ones attempting to push tyranny.
    1
  463. The racist vote shouldn't be a factor. Like, if one group only gets the non-racist vote and the other only gets the racist vote, the second group shouldn't be at all viable candidates. The problem is all the people who have convinced themselves they aren't on the side of the racists; people who are, in their personal lives, not racist and don't think race should matter. They're inadvertently giving cover to the actual vile racists like Nick Fuentes until it becomes a problem.
    1
  464. This is what happens when policy gives way for politics. It creates Frankenstein's monsters left and right with no means of controlling them. A genuine conservative legislature still wants freedom, but an ideologue wants authority. When you give way to ideologues, you lose. Period.
    1
  465. That flopper made me laugh. I got knocked off my bicycle as a kid by a car and didn't yell that loud. He threw himself over a knee-high wall and acted like someone beat him half to death. What a wuss.
    1
  466. There are people out there that are stupid. There are people out there that are insane. There are people out there that are evil. Alison Steinberg is all three.
    1
  467. If one of my very young nieces or nephews told me they just figured the word us is spelled with the letters used to abbreviate United States, I'd think they were clever. If my college age nephew did the same, I'd be taking him to see a neurologist to ensure he's not suffering a concussion or brain damage.
    1
  468. The sorry fact of the matter is that the second amendment crowd, the ones that fetishize guns as the panacea to tyranny, are on the side of tyranny.
    1
  469. I like to pit them against each other. They say they want Christianity as their ruling code? Fine. Then I start suggesting branches that are opposed to the branch they are one. For example, if I'm talking to a Southern Baptist, I suggest Catholicism. There is no such thing as generic Christianity, there are ten thousand different denominations, and they all think they're the only one that's right. It'll rapidly become a purity movement pushing out every other group until one is supreme and then it becomes mandated that you belong to that church or else. Why do you think we have the 1st amendment to begin with?!
    1
  470. It took decades for things to get this bad, it's going to take decades at least, and probably generations, to fix things.
    1
  471. Too many people get propaganda instead of news. When we have entire channels trying to disguise their propaganda and their outright lies as news and truth, our nation will collapse.
    1
  472. Man, and I thought Jesus suffered while on the cross. Now he's the scapegoat for every Christian chauvinist using his name to push all sorts of nonsense.
    1
  473. I know for a fact that I had slave owners in my ancestry. Even so, I don't identify with them. I don't think what they did was good or right. The point of understanding history is to not make the same mistakes. If you're a Republican or a conservative and you think teaching genuine history is going to make children feel bad about the past... GOOD! They SHOULD feel bad about the past, THAT'S THE POINT! You feel bad about it so you don't think you can do it again today. Mythology might make you feel good, but it will never make children capable of understanding the world they are in and improve it. You will condemn them to needless suffering and failure. STOP IT!
    1
  474. What oversight do we have for the Supreme Court? Ostensibly, it's Congress. They can't oversee shit. It's all broken as hell.

  475. LOL! Man, only 15 seconds in and the humiliation is fantastic! All mammals look the same at that stage in fetal development.

  476. While it's nice this person managed to leave this cult, there are far too many that haven't or have yet to.
    1
  477. Men and women are different. That's just biology. That being said, the difference in men and women when it comes to neurology and cognition is so small an electron microscope couldn't find it. When it comes to rights, there should be no difference.
    1
  478. Man, Giuliani is STILL Mr. Noun a Verb and 9/11!
    1
  479. If the Republican party will not learn humility, let them feel humiliation instead.
    1
  480. Trump is a hypocrite? Wow. And in other news, water is actually wet!
    1
  481. I love hearing MAGA idiots proclaim how broken Joe Biden's brain is, then watch them cheer one of Trump's speeches where his brain glitches and he can't say words properly.
    1
  482. NIMBY (Not In My Back Yard) makes for terrible policy.
    1
  483. George Carlin had a joke about somewhere in the world being the worst doctor, punchline being, "and someone has an appointment to see him tomorrow." Alina Habba fits that framework except replace doctor with lawyer. What a joke!
    1
  484. All the men in the opening of this video talking about Taylor Swift being unattractive are lying like crazy. If she threw herself at any of those men, they'd definitely have sex with her and brag about having sex with the hottest woman they ever did. And saying she dresses slutty? WHAT? THAT'S slutty to you? Man, these are the kinds of guys who freak out over seeing a woman's ankle or elbow. What freaks!

  485. It would take hours for a therapeutic dose of fentanyl being absorbed through the skin. Touching it won't OD you. If you've got someone overdosing on fentanyl, you know they've consumed it.

  486. She's not lying, she has to know what she's saying is bullshit to intentionally misrepresent it. She knows fuck-all about anything.
    1
  487. We really need abortion rights now, so we need to abort the Republican party.
    1
  488. There is no such thing as reverse racism, there is just racism. Privilege and power have nothing to do with hating someone because of their race, actual or perceived.
    1
  489. Call them what they are, goddamned fascists.
    1
  490. I think the Republican party is populated by vampires. It's the only explanation why they are so incapable of self-reflection.
    1
  491. Imagine being a grown ass man and calling yourself cat turd. Now imagine wanting the attention of a man who calls himself cat turd. How starved for affection and attention must Don Jr. be?

  492. You show me, even one example, even 100 years ago, of a black Santa and a child dressed in KKK regalia. Go ahead, I'll wait.

  493. They're like the Mafia except in one respect. The Mafia is competent.

  494. And here I thought this was the party against government regulations!
    1
  495. Donald Trump has been in one court or another since the 70s. Bullshit he didn't know what a subpoena was!
    1
  496. It's one of the most dishonest things in any form of media to quote mine. Taking a phrase out of context to push your agenda is called lying.
    1
  497. Oh, that clip of Peter Griffin saying, "awful lot of honkeys in here," caught me off guard! I cracked up and had to pause the video to catch my breath!
    1
  498. I'm no genius, plus I'm not corrupt, but if I were someone like Trump and knew I was going to be committing fraud, I'd be doing the plotting of said fraud in a soundproofed room after having everyone strip searched and have any phones or recording devices confiscated. If I'm no genius, Trump is a total moron.

  499. Marjorie Taylor Green is like someone took a guest from the Jerry Springer show and made her a congresswoman. Bad idea.

  500. Their own religion tells them that a baby isn't a person until it takes its first breath.

  501. I come from a military family. Both my grandfathers were in the U.S. Air Force and my dad was in the U.S. Navy. Anyone speaks ill of the military or veterans is no one I want to associate with and I especially don't want them in office.

  502. The Bible is used to argue both sides of every issue. Anything that argues every side of all issues defends nothing.

  503. If you take the average European, African, Asian, Australian, or American from the pre-Columbian era, the number of things each knew was right around the same just like if you give any racial group the same access to education, you see an equal level of intelligence. No group is superior to another. Racism is a product of ignorance and willful stupidity, not genuine superiority. Circumstances more than genetics plays a role in which group(s) have which advantages and which handicaps. BTW, a smart man wouldn't air his biases in a classroom full of people that all have cameras in their pockets. How long before he's fired, and rightly so?

  504. Hey, Republicans! There is more music in the black community than rap! Blues, Motown, jazz, rock, symphonic\classical, country. Be less racist!

  505. Let's stop calling them Republicans, let's stop calling them the GOP. It's time to start calling them what they are, goddamned Fascists.

  506. Christ. This is the rhetoric of a wife-beater after beating his wife. "It's your fault I beat you up."

  507. Am I the only one that thinks Thorgy Thor's alien transformation is oddly sexy?
    1
  508. You know that any time a Republican says the word freedom, they mean for themselves exclusively.
    1
  509. Here's where his logic breaks down. The loss in productivity due to family grieving is going to be an issue. The loss of a member of society that will go on to contribute also loses productivity. Overall, the loss of this child isn't a boon to society even on a monetary level. It's like saying having a car crash is a boon to the car owner because they won't be paying for gas and insurance anymore neglecting that now they can't get to work and earn money. DENSE argument.

  510. Reality to the Republican party is like sunlight to Dracula.
    1
  511. Ben Stein knows better. His father was Nixon's chief economic advisor, and he was a junior speechwriter. He knew Nixon was a fucking crook.

  512. The gears of justice grind ever on, slowly sometimes, but they never halt.
    1
  513. Breitbart is a news source like McDonalds is fine dining.
    1
  514. Be wary of people claiming to support and be all about freedom who then do what they can to curtail voting rights. They aren't capable of winning a fair fight, so they try to hobble their competition. We need to fight back harder, force them to show their true fascist colors. Make them drape themselves in the Swastika instead of the Star-Spangled Banner.

  515. They can spin anything, especially to their idiot base of ignorant buffoons.

  516. To Trump, all the people of the world are just props in his play. Worst case of main character syndrome ever.
    1
  517. Well, he IS full of shit.
    1
  518. Joe Biden as Hilary Clinton before him has shown the ability to have their minds changed. Donald Trump, in the other hand has shown the willingness to force his ideals into law over the guiding laws of this nation and the will of the people. Which would you rather have in office, one who will force you to do what he wants or one who can be pushed to the conclusion you desire?

  519. May Donald Trump be struck mute. The collective IQ of the nation will go up 20 points.

  521. When Dick Cheney has become the voice of reason for your party, something horrible is going on. It's not just evil, it's Saturday morning cartoon villain evil.
    1
  522. One party tries to wrap itself in the flag and patriotism, but patriots would never use information that would hurt this nation to take power. They are leeches and it's time we scrape them off!
    1
  523. I did like the Christmas music being played on the Theremin. Probably the only time I've heard Christmas music this year and didn't groan. I wouldn't be so against Christmas music if it weren't played LITERALLY EVERYWHERE! War on Christmas, my ass! If there is, Christmas is winning and always has.
    1
  524. Godwin's Law is that the longer an argument goes on, the more likely it will reference Hitler or the Nazi party. The man that crafted the law, Mike Godwin, wanted to stop trivializing the Holocaust. He also said that it doesn't apply when talking about the alt-right and the extremists running the Republican party. They aren't conservatives, they are goosestepping, book burning, goddamned Nazis!

  525. Donald Trump's father Fred Trump Sr. spent the last few years of his life suffering from severe senile dementia. The kind of dementia that is hereditary. He's already cooked.

  526. Did you add another Army of Darkness audio clip? That, "let's get the hell out of here," clip, I am 100% certain those were Evil Ash's skeleton minions fleeing after they were defeated.
    1
  527. One of my favorite quotes about American politics came from fellow Oklahoman, Will Rogers. "I am not a member of any organized political party. I am a Democrat." For the longest time, it always felt like that was the truth. After this sh*t show of a speaker election from the Republican nitwits, I think that needs to be updated. The Republican party isn't organized any longer.
    1
  528. I loved the bit where she complained about the judge "slamming a table." One, it's called the bench, and two, he was "slamming" a gavel, which is punctuation for, "I have ruled." Never went to law school and I know these things. Why doesn't she?
    1
  529. So, the man's argument is essentially that if it's illegal in Alabama, then it's illegal to take someone from Alabama to a state where it is legal and do the thing that is illegal in Alabama. Well. Say goodbye to going to Las Vegas if you live in Alabama. Gambling is illegal in Alabama, so if you plan to go to Nevada inside the state of Alabama, that's now criminal conspiracy. What a dunce. No idea of the concept of unintended consequences.
    1
  530. The fascist Republican party will do everything, block every bill, if it means a Democrat gets even the slightest hint of a win. They are traitors and tyrants, and the Tree of Liberty is wilting. I think it's time to feed it.
    1
  531. Shapiro talking about masculinity is rich. Our military doesn't fight with its muscles, we aren't wielding swords anymore. Hell, even then, strategy, not physical might, wins wars. Ask our founding fathers who were fighting a war of independence against a foe with superior numbers. Our strategy, not our physical might, won that war. Ben Shapiro not only isn't a masculine or strong man, he's also historically illiterate. NEVER listen to what he says with any seriousness.
    1
  532. We keep hearing the 2nd amendment fetishists that the 2nd amendment is to protect against tyranny. If this court with a word destroys this nation by allowing this nonsense through, it will become tyrannical, yet the 2nd amendment fetishists will fall into lockstep obedience with this tyrannical government. Strangle this in the crib or we will have to fight it forever after.

  533. When consequences come knocking on the door of the wealthy elite, to them, it feels like the unwashed masses showing up with pitchforks and torches while erecting a guillotine on their lawns.

  535. If there was a just and loving God, Donald Trump would have gotten cancer of the tongue and throat.
    1
  536. The supreme court just handed Donald Trump a dagger. If we don't keep him out of office, he will plunge that dagger into the heart of this nation.
    1
  537. It's also damned foolish. It's self-defeating. How many people that lost their power, maybe even got hurt or sick because of it, are now going to side with the drag show people because of the terrorists' stupidity? Their actions are tantamount to trying to kill a single cockroach and burning the whole building down to do it.
    1
  538. You can be angry and funny, just look at Bill Burr or Lewis Black. You just have to know how to diffuse the anger with laughter. Being hateful and funny? No. That's why conservative humor isn't funny, it's so full of hate.
    1
  539. Tet Cruz has a point about Hollywood playing footsie with the CCP in order to get their movies into China in order to make more money. They're capitalists trying to appease a communist authoritarian government. Is it something Congress needs to be involved in? No, he should be focusing on helping his constituents, making the economy work for everyone not just the wealthy, and working on solutions to the climate crisis. Hollywood will eventually realize they'll lose more money trying to appease the CCP than they'll earn and they'll eventually stop.
    1
  540. I know for a fact that I have slave owners in my history. Learning that didn't make me feel bad. It made me understand that we need to keep moving forward. Yes, I feel bad that people in the past were treated badly, but not that I was specifically culpable in that evil. And history should be discomforting, it should make you feel bad about the mistakes and cruelty of the past, so you learn not to repeat them. It is the heat and the hammer that forges strong steel. Anyone trying to revise history or teach mythology in its place is condemning children to suffering and failure, and that hurts a lot more than a few anxious moments learning of genuine history.
    1
  541. You notice he caveats his statements with, "I believe." I believe he's molesting children. I have no proof of that, but I'm going to continue to say it. And you can't sue me for defamation because I didn't proclaim directly that I have evidence he's molesting children, it's just a belief I have.

  542. Debates are only a way for fools to sound smart and smart people to be dragged down.

  543. They don't have to say a horrible idea to be tied to it. Yeah, a woman said this, but he agreed. He endorsed it, meaning it took ownership of it alongside her.
    1
  544. I didn't serve myself, but I came from a military family. Both my grandfathers were U.S. Air Force, my mother's father joined when it was still the U.S. Army Air Corps. My father was in the U.S. Navy. I'll be damned if I'm going to say something disrespectful of the U.S. military. And Tuberville's father was in the military. I'd wager he'd be totally ashamed of his son for what he's doing for political clout.
    1
  545. There was a character on Star Trek Deep Space Nine named Garak. He was a spy for one of the adversarial species but was outcast. He lived by the code, "why tell the truth when a lie will do." Who knew Donald Trump as a Cardassian?
    1
  546. I find it hard to understand how we've gotten to this point. I was a kid when the internet was just becoming ubiquitous. No one needed to tell me not to take my clothes off and send pictures to someone I met online, and I wasn't a genius or morally supreme either. Maybe that wasn't as much a thing at that point, but I'm sure it happened some. My family wasn't looking over my shoulder either. Maybe it was not having the internet when I was younger and so meeting strangers online wasn't commonplace yet, but are children really so naive today? I'm sure older people were saying they wouldn't have gotten into a stranger's windowless van when that was becoming more common, so I don't really know what to think here.

  547. <Sniff, sniff> Does anyone else smell burning paper?

  548. And we wonder why they want to stop teaching history. This is some classic Nazi shit. Educated people would see this, recognize it, and be totally against it. This man need to be taken out of office and put on trial.

  549. On behalf of all Oklahomans, I would like to apologize for this radical idiot getting this close to power.
    1
  550. If Donald Trump took the worst insults the left made of him, put it on a mug, and sipped from it to show how he doesn't care what the left thinks of him, they'd be calling him an Alpha Male. This is them afraid and trying to look tough.

  551. I love your enthusiasm, but justice? Inditements? I will believe it when I see it.
    1
  552. If MTG had a brain, she'd have thrown it away years ago.
    1
  553. There are a myriad of reasons for the right-wing crowd to fall in behind Trump. Stupidity is one of the bigger ones, but not the worst. Otherwise intelligent people fall in behind Trump because they're power hungry or opportunists. People who don't care who they hurt as long as they are made rich or powerful.
    1
  554. What the fuck is a secular religion? Secular is defined as denoting attitudes, activities, or other things that have no religious or spiritual basis. It's NOT religious. Our government is secular. It's not anti-religion, it takes no position of religion.
    1
  555. I would feel sorry for Mike Lindell for the obvious brain damage he has after being a habitual abuser of cocaine if it weren't for his malevolent stupidity trying to tear down the U.S. government.
    1
  556. So, what they're attacking him for is having empathy and compassion. Oh, I know what they THINK they're attacking him on, trying to cover up his son's drug addiction. People who are Fox News viewers watch that channel the same way they read the Bible, uncritically and accepting what someone else says what they just heard or saw means.
    1
  557. Damn. Funny, I finally found something I agree with Donald Trump on. They don't know what woke is. I know what they mean by woke. They mean, "I don't like it!" If they were children at the dinner table, they'd be calling brussel sprouts and lima bean woke.
    1
  558. They propose legislation with absolutely no clue as to the consequences said legislation will have. Are there drug dealers that deserve to die? Maybe. I'm sure some cut their drugs with horrible stuff and get people killed. That being said, it's not all of them. I'd be willing to say it's not even most of them. Drug dealers make their money from repeat customers. Can't sell drugs to a corpse. If you want to stop drug dealers, you have to curb the craving for mind altering substances, and if you can do that, go and walk on water next.

  559. She would obviously argue that all the benefits she's enjoying are earned while if we got them, it'd be socialism. These people actually love socialism as long as it benefits them and their donor class, but anyone else and it's horribly evil and needs stamping out.

  560. How many toes does the Republican party have with how many times they've shot themselves in the foot?
    1
  561. Since when is a person who goes to congress as a senator a housewife? She's not at home taking care of the house or children, she's going to congress.
    1
  562. If it were Donald Trump doing the exact same debt forgiveness for the exact same people Biden just has, they'd never be able to sing Trump's praises loud enough. This isn't about worrying about debt forgiveness or about genuine fairness, it's desperately trying to stir up nonsense to anger their idiot base.
    1
  563. Conservatism is brain rot.
    1
  564. What a know-nothing psychopath.
    1
  565. The idea of voting is to make the cream rise to the top. Republican rigging has made the rot spread faster than it otherwise would.
    1
  566. It's true that I didn't vote FOR Hilary Clinton or FOR Joe Biden, I voted AGAINST Donald Trump and MAGA fascism. Guess what, I'm going to continue to do so. As long as Republicans are fascist shit heels, I'm going to vote for anyone who has a pulse that isn't one of them.
    1
  567. Notice how MAGA fascists are trying to depress the vote, but our side is trying to promote it, even to the MAGA fascists?

  568. Just when I think I can't be more ashamed of or embarrassed by my state of Oklahoma, some idiot in office here yells out, "hold my beer!"

  569. Greed destroys everything.

  570. One of the best counterprotest methods for bigots. Form a nice long line of your counter protestors and be totally silent. Just a nice long line of everyone flipping them the bird. Or, alternatively, laughing and pointing at them like they're monkeys at a zoo. Nothing takes the air out of a bigot faster than being mocked and ridiculed by a large number of people.
    1
  571. Wow, the projection on display here is absolutely next level!
    1
  572. Here in Oklahoma, we had a ballot measure a few years ago that was about prison reform. It passed overwhelmingly, and this is one of the most conservative states in the nation, meaning it was conservatives that passed this prison reform bill. The language our state legislature used to say they were overturning the will of the people is frighteningly similar to what Ohio Republicans used to say they were going to overturn the will of the people there. Beware, my state carried out its threat and overturned the prison reform our people voted for. Stay vigilant my Ohio friends.
    1
  573. Better than Washington, better than Lincoln? What? As if Washington or Lincoln had the temerity to scam people to this degree. Washington could have made himself king and Lincoln could have acquiesced to the slave owning states. Both had far more integrity in their nail clippings than Donald Trump has in his entire body.
    1
  574. Tucker Carlson reporting from the 1930s here! Reefer Madness was put out in 1936 and has LONG SINCE been debunked as ridiculous fantasy. And what school is handing out drugs of ANY variety? Christ, a kid can't even take prescription medication for diabetes without reems of documentation to free them of liability, but they're going to just give a kid some psychotropic drug without the parents' consent? What planet is Fucker Carlson living on?
    1
  575. Christ. Wind, not a disaster, fucking WIND, took down the power grid? That is ridiculous.
    1
  576. Imagine being someone claiming to love this country and then denying a Marine citizenship because they were born in a different country. Someone loved this country so much they voluntarily put their life on the line to protect it and you can't give them citizenship because, "foreigners bad!" I'd trade ten thousand of you bigots for just one of them.
    1
  577. I think we can all admit the abortion ban is primarily going to affect women. Yes, there are trans and nonbinary people who are capable of becoming pregnant, but seriously, the overwhelmingly vast majority of people this is going to affect is women. Should we care about the trans and nonbinary too? Yes, obviously, people are people. Problem is, this finger wagging is what is giving Republicans and conservatives power. They think we're nuts, and the average public agrees.
    1
  578. What does vindication feel like after all these years?
    1
  579. There are jobs that you will find far more men than women, firefighter for example. It's often tough for women to get those jobs. If anything, those women deserve greater respect for both earning such jobs and overcoming the gender gap.
    1
  580. And the cynical part of this is, they know by refusing this bill, by deliberately hamstringing our economy, it'll be laid at the feet of the current president. Power corrupts and greed destroys everything.
    1
  581. Gaetz shouldn't be out running his idiot mouth. He needs to be in court defending himself against child trafficking charges and in his state fending off a recall election.
    1
  582. THIS is exactly why I say no ideology is true, only reality is true. Republicans have, for far too long, embraced ideology over reality. A good ideology is capable of changing when reality exposes flaws, a bad one desperately tries to force reality to fit it. Look at Marco Rubio lying about what the government does and then desperately beg his constituents to trust the government's weather information and evacuate. Embrace reality, adapt to it, use it to your advantage or be crushed by it.
    1
  583. Have you ever seen a man more capable of using an abundance of words to say absolutely nothing? Politicians in general all have this skill, but Trump is the undisputed master of it!
    1
  584. Someone calling out a group as being fascist and your response is an apoplectic, "NO I AM NOT!" Chances are, you're on the wrong side. That was a seriously guilty reaction.
    1
  585. Incest causing genetic issues is all about probabilities. On a technical aspect, Oz is correct. That being said, it was TOTALLY tone deaf. You have someone telling you they're having regular sex with a cousin and your advice isn't immediately, "you should stop doing that," no matter how correct you are on a technical level when it comes to genetics, you're just wrong.
    1
  586. Fred Trump Sr. was a horrible excuse for a human being, but he was a much stronger financially sound businessman than his son ever was or ever could be. The man must be rolling in his grave with how bad Donald has destroyed his legacy.
    1
  587. The only white people I know that are uncomfortable talking about race are racists.
    1
  588. This seems to me to be an example of an otherwise decent and intelligent person being duped by slick talk and frightening rhetoric. It's also an example of how to deal with such a person, not with accusations and blame, not with shame or embarrassment, but with honesty, decency, and sound information.

  589. I'm glad it's these aliens watching us and not ones that would decide to nuke us from orbit.

  590. MAGA is a pizza cutter group, all edge, no point.

  591. In a just world, Trump would already have been hanged for his treasonous attack on our capitol, Putin and his government would have been ousted by a popular uprising as would the Communist party of China, and we would be looking to bring the world together. We live in a very, VERY unjust world.
    1
  592. Republican officials tend to be the kind that will go to a fancy dinner with others and then bail when the check arrives, even though they're the ones that have most of the money. They have so much money because they are frugal with their own money and extreme spendthrifts with other people's money.
    1
  593. When someone says something provably and demonstrably untrue in a slick way, they are a form of intelligent, but it's a pseudointelligence. They aren't genuinely smart, they're just smarter than the people they talk to. A genuinely intelligent person will see through this malarky in a moment.

  596. Not only did he misspell milquetoast, but he put it in quotes. This is a man who so obviously never reads. Last time I made the milk toast error (unintentionally) was in middle school.

  597. My mom used to go to a black church when the white church she used to go to became toxic back in the 70s. She'd tell you, any major black church would never welcome Donald Trump.

  598. I just can't find this shit funny. Fooling people, taking their money, making them poorer, riling them up, and aiming them at us. It's a recipe for disaster.
    1
  599. The problem with this strategy is, her voters think she's making excellent points. It might sway a few centrists, but I doubt it.
    1
  600. I'm shocked. I'm from Oklahoma. I'm used to my representatives and senators being total pants-on-head morons. Hearing Lankford say something even somewhat sensible is astounding.
    1
  601. As an Oklahoman, I want to warn you of this mentality. We had a prison reform bill here pass overwhelmingly. It's a conservative state, so if only liberals vote for an issue, it will not pass. What did our state representatives say? That the people didn't understand the law they voted for, that it was vague, and they would overturn it. Sound familiar? They succeeded in carrying out their threat. You hold them to account, or they will force their will on you.
    1
  602. When conservatives realize they can't win elections, they won't abandon conservatism, they'll abandon democracy.
    1
  603. There's a psychological theory that the reason these people would work so hard to get rid of things they publicly attack but privately do or have done is like trying to run up the score on the scoreboard. They have a gay relationship, in their circles that's bad and one point against them. Then they go up and create legislation or demand certain books be removed all about homosexuality, their score is now one point against them and ten thousand points for them. They don't see it as hypocrisy, they see it as being more in favor of their talking points than their personal foibles.
    1
  604. When conservatives lose elections, they don't abandon conservatism, they abandon democracy. THAT'S why they're becoming the fascist party today.
    1
  605. They sincerely see this nation as being a meritocracy. It isn't, it has never been, and if they have their way, it never will be. Only wealthy white people will have power if they have their say.
    1
  606. It's such an antiquated idea that seeking help is somehow weakness. Allowing something to fester, to metastasize, is going to weaken you far more than getting treatment for what is ailing you. It's true for injuries, illness, and cancer, so why do we still have so many see mental health as personal failing? The failure is holding that pain in until it hurts or destroys you later.
    1
  607. We've long since abandoned appointing justices for their legal acumen in favor of appointment for ideological purity.
    1
  608. The Trumps have no sentimentality in death. His older brother, Fred Trump Jr. wished to be cremated because he did NOT want to be buried. His family cremated his remains... and then buried them anyway. What a shitbag. I hope he's haunting them mercilessly.
    1
  609. Ah, the UFC. Modern incarnation of Roman Gladiators. It's always the knuckle draggers that love this sort of thing.

  610. This is the pot calling the silverware black.
    1
  611. I'm 43, about the only pardons I'd need would be for something petty like jaywalking or shoplifting. Something a fine would usually cover. I can't imagine needing a pardon that would literally cover 14 billion years. Even if it's the one sex trafficking charge he's being investigated for, that isn't just overkill, it's universe-spanning overkill.
    1
  612. I'd call Louie Gohmert the Elmer Fudd of congress, but I wouldn't want to insult Elmer Fudd like that.
    1
  613. Let's get one thing straight. The right isn't protecting Trump, they're protecting themselves. They've tied themselves to Trump. If he goes down, he's going to take them with. So, yes, they want to keep him out of trouble, but not because they love him or what he stands for, but to keep from being burned down with him. If they were truly smart, they'd push him off, distance themselves from him, and let him go down. Some of them are going down regardless, but to take the whole party down, maybe even the whole nation, that's just stupid and evil.
    1
  614. What color is the sky on planet MAGA? They aren't living in reality; they're living in a fantasy. When reality comes down on them, as it inevitably will, it's going to crush them into a gooey paste.

  615. Chinese communist garlic? Hell, can garlic even be communist?

  616. Good grief, and I thought I got mad at this bullshit! I'm a level-headed calm guy compared to you, and people around me know I like to stand on soapboxes.

  617. My grandmother in her final days, riddled with dementia, made far more sense than Donald Trump ever did.
    1
  618. If this were a just world, Trump would already have been ended at a gallows by now.
    1
  619. MTG, like most Republicans, seem to have rectally derived statistics.
    1
  620. MAGA literally believes the only families are nuclear families. One man, one woman, and their children. They try to use the Bible to cement this idea, but the most common form of marriage mentioned in the Bible is polygamy. Rational people in nuclear families don't want to hurt families that don't look like theirs.
    1
  621. I had an uncle that was a drug addict. My grandfather, his father, didn't really help him much, thought cutting him off would force him to clean up. He ended up with Hepatitis C and died of that. Only time I saw my grandfather cry was when he scattered my uncle's ashes, because he realized he could have helped him and not helping him is why he was scattering his ashes. Never turn your back on the people in your life struggling with addiction.

  622. The only solution they're interested in is making America whiter and more Christian. They want to control people's lives. In short, they're goddamned fascists.

  623. Joe Rogan's opinions are those of the strongest personality he spoke to last. Now he only has MAGA fascists on his show.

  624. Don't do cocaine, folks, else you'll end up frying your brain. Mike Lindell is exhibit A in this case.

  625. History SHOULD make you feel uncomfortable. It was a time before we learned what we understand now. It's important to feel discomfort so that we move forward away from the discomfort.

  626. Remember, they want Biblical marriage, which is one man and one woman... and another woman, and concubines, and as many slaves as you own, and... Well, I guess they don't have a point here after all.

  627. That man needs a dirty sock stuffed in his mouth.

  628. Ted Cruz isn't a senator, he's a podcaster with a senatorial side hustle.

  629. I'd suggest you're mistaken in your initial statement. Donald Trump isn't the ONLY one that thinks his presidency was the best in our history, so do his MAGA cultists, and THAT'S the scary part.
    1
  630. I'm usually okay with drag queens, but George Santos as one makes my skin crawl.
    1
  631. Abortion is a bad thing, yes, but a necessary one. Until we can have 100% foolproof contraception that works without thought and can protect everyone, both during consensual sex and rape, we are going to need abortion to keep our society from being run down by neglected children and unfit parents.

  632. Insert Neil Degrasse Tyson meme here: Watch out, we've got a badass over here!

  633. There's a fundamental difference between an illegal immigrant (their term, not mine) and an asylum seeker. All they see is a brown-skinned person that speaks Spanish.

  634. I'd LOVE to have Ron Perlman as president. He might play a great asshole in movies and on TV, but he's a really nice and decent guy in real life.
    1
  635. Man, this guy has some balls. Good for him. Let's hope this message gets through to some of these second amendment fetishists.
    1
  636. If it were Trump in the exact same scene, Fox and the like would be praising him for being so kind and wonderful and these children as true patriots. I doubt they'd have said anything bad if it had been a celebrity like Keanu Reeves or Scarlette Johansen. To these kids, they don't understand politics yet. They might understand the president is an important person, but to them, they're basically just another celebrity and they were acting in just that manner.
    1
  637. This has been running in my head for a week. George Carlin is one of the best comedians of all time and he was right on this 30 years ago!
    1
  638. It's amazing how quicky they leapt from, "they don't like George W. Bush," to, "they're traitors and want Saddam Hussein to destroy America!" They invented things they said and then got angry at them for saying it.
    1
  639. The right wing is just slaty that their greatest starts are losers like Kid Rock, Ted Nugent, and Rob Schneider. Taylor Swift isn't only more popular than their stars, she's more popular than the entirety of the right wing.
    1
  640. Let's say, for the sake of argument, that drag shows were evil and needed to be stopped (they aren't and they don't), you would target the venue directly not a power grid that supplies power to thousands of innocents NOT involved in said shows. That's like killing a single cockroach by burning the whole house down. They collectively need to come to grips with reality and realize that drag isn't evil, it's not sexualizing even one child, and they need to mind their own goddamned business!
    1
  641. So, doctors in Germany during Nazi rule obeyed authority. Yeah, it must be because they ALL just agreed with the ideology and not that dissent was repaid with death. No, they were just evil.

  644. We'll get sensible gun control when there is a mass murder event involving at least half of Republican legislatures' families.
    1
  645. Any man or woman who has kids and is pro-gun should be more pro-kid than pro-gun. If they're really willing to sacrifice their children for the sake of gun ownership are proving they should have neither.
    1
  646. That last video was nauseating! Here's a group who see themselves as true patriots protecting children when what they are is an extragovernmental occupying force. It's all fun and games until they murder someone just trying to pick up their kids and then the police will have to answer why they did nothing to stop this.
    1
  647. Ugh! Every damned time I think I can't be more embarrassed and ashamed of being an Oklahoman, some idiot from here gets on the national stage and yell, "hold my beer!"
    1
  648. The suggestion that all drag is inherently sexual is EASILY disproven. Bugs Bunny on several occasions dresses in drag. Not the least bit sexual. Monty Python often has their male cast members dress in drag for comedic purpose. Not the least bit sexual. What seems to be going on here is they see someone in drag, temporarily think it's a woman, become sexually aroused, realize it a man wearing women's clothing, become angry, and blame the person in question for dishonesty and sexual perversion. In other words, it's a them problem not an us problem.
    1
  649. Hmm. I'm looking forward to the day Americans realize that the poor and middle class outnumber the wealthy elites (especially their pets in government) and decide to reenact the French Revolution.
    1
  650. MAGA Republicans don't see John McCain as a fellow Republican. He's a RINO, which basically makes him a Democrat, meaning, to them, President Biden speaking fondly of McCain is Biden giving praise to a fellow Democrat.
    1
  651. Only a fool determined what they should do based on what a poll says. Polls at best are a temporary reflection on a single moment and at worst are deliberately misleading. Vote what you feel is right, not what someone, even the politicians asking for your vote, tell you to.
    1
  652. I don't doubt Trump is a billionaire. Thing is, if you've got that much wealth, you rarely have much cash. Wealthy people know that if they just hold onto money, it loses value, so they invest it in things that appreciate in value. Trump, like most billionaires, have his wealth tied up in real estate. He doesn't want to sell his properties, mostly because with the judgement against him, he'll have to sell them at a loss. Well, if he didn't want to have this problem, he just had to not commit crimes.
    1
  653. Man, they really should just go all out wearing white sheets and swastikas. The mask is already off, might as well go full Nazi fascist.
    1
  654. I'm hard pressed to call what Trump is doing at his resort wedding crashing. I mean, anyone willing to have a wedding ceremony or reception at Mar-a-Lago is someone who is hoping Trump will show up. If he were showing up uninvited to wedding ceremonies or receptions across town or in a different state, I'd call that crashing a wedding.
    1
  655. YES! Name them, call them what they are, goddamned terrorists!
    1
  656. I strongly suspect that, should Trump actually be elected, he won't be able to take the oath of office. His brain is melting in real time.
    1
  657. I remember Fox "News" was showing a black man painting a mural based on Trump's mugshot while it was being painted. The punchline? There was a speech bubble added when it was complete: MAGA - My Ass Got Arrested.

  658. I voted today. Didn't vote for a single fascist Republican!

  661. Not all fertilized eggs become people. The majority of fertilized eggs do not implant in the womb and grow into a fetus and then into a baby. Not all fetuses survive to be born alive. At best a fertilized egg or a fetus is a potential human life, not an actual human life. I will always preference actual life over potential life.

  668. People who are stupid are afraid of smart people. They make them feel even more stupid. So, what do they do? Vote for other stupid people, so they can feel smart by comparison or feel like someone like them is in charge. News flash, stupid people make bad decisions. If you look at someone and feel stupid because of how smart they are, VOTE FOR THEM TO RUN THINGS!!!

  669. I think I'd be more comfortable with a black pilot with middling grades who's working twice as hard to gain half as much recognition than a white pilot with the highest scores who genuinely believe everything is owed to them. Oh, and Charlie Kirk, next time say it wearing your pointy hood.

  670. Trying to shame a Republican for hypocrisy is like trying to shame a dog for having fur.

  671. The gall of Nancy Mace to INTENTIONALLY mispronounce Vice President Kamala Harris's name is just shameful and a true sign of dishonor Mace should be forced to wear. I've mispronounced Kamala Harris's name a few times, but it was out of ignorance, not malice. Once I was corrected, I made sure to pronounce it correctly, because that's what a decent person does.

  688. My late grandfather used to have a saying. "I gave you books, and what did you do with them? Ate the covers off them." That's what the Republican party has become. Uninterested in education, completely invested in propaganda.

  689. The idea of originalism is profoundly stupid as a legal argument in a nation designed intentionally to move past the original ideals in favor of a modern sensibility.

  690. Yeah, I'm pissed at Republicans for this, the way I'd be pissed at a rabid dog for biting me. I'm MORE pissed at Democrats. We've had 50 goddamned years to codify this into law, not hoping that the supreme court would simply uphold this forever. We saw them chip away at this for 50 goddamned years and did fuck all to stop it. Yes, we need to fight, but we also need to fucking learn. You do the right thing, every time and without exception over holding onto your precious seats. Cowardice ends in domination by the opposition and that's where we are now.

  691. I cook with a gas stove. I'm not particularly afraid they're going to come take mine. Worst comes to worst, they'll ban the production of new gas stoves, but the one I have is still in use. I doubt they'll do that either. As for taking them? There aren't as many gas stoves as there are guns in this country, but it's still a lot and they'd never get enough police together to take them. A little bit of logic goes a LONG way.

  694. They yell about how broken government is and then go to do their government job and stop government working. YOU'RE THE REASON IT'S BROKE! Get these MAGA fascists out of office come November!
    1
  695. Yes, we objected to allowing Donald Trump to take office. That objection took the form of discussion. The Republicans objected to Joe Biden taking office. However, their objection took the form of storming the capitol and threatening to kill members of congress and the vice president. They're trying to gaslight us into accepting they were in the right and that shit doesn't work on me.
    1
  696. It really should be against the law for a non-governmental organization to write laws. That is the exclusive domain of the government. Any politician caught trying to pass laws written by a non-governmental organization should be immediately removed from office. They serve the people, not corporations and fake political think tanks.

Imagine being a Baptist and having the state pushing a Catholic interpretation of the Bible in public schools. When I've brought up to Christians who really believe the state needs to push Christianity that scenario, swapping in their denomination and the denomination in charge, they always get a deer-in-the-headlights look on their face.

  706. Our founding fathers couldn't foresee a civil war over slavery or women being allowed to vote. I sincerely doubt they'd have worded the second amendment as they did if they knew one man could murder dozens of people in a single minute when it would have taken a platoon of men armed with single-shot muskets to achieve the same results in their time.

  707. It started with Nixon. He had only one consequence, and that was giving up the presidency. That wasn't enough. He needed a full investigation and to be held accountable. Gerald Ford royally screwed up and screwed us all by pardoning Nixon. There weren't consequences that mattered. Politics went severely downhill after that. This former president, quite frankly, should have swung by his neck until dead, the prescribed punishment for treason. Every day he breathes free air is a day of justice stolen writ large from the American people.

  721. Liz Cheney has positioned herself well to take over the Republican party when the Trump fever inevitably breaks. She's the woman who put the law, who put justice, who put the American people ahead of her own office and position in government. That's going to shine brightly once MAGA dies off.

You're left with essentially burned crap, not compost. You're literally better off throwing your scraps into a large pile or a trash can and letting it rot naturally because you're not wasting electricity to grind and cook your scraps. Better yet, toss some earthworms into that pile, worm castings are even better than compost.

  731. While I will admit it's a possibility, I'll suggest it's far simpler than that. They are political opportunists. They've calculated that if they abandon Trump and MAGA, they won't stay in office and have all that power they're so in love with.

  732. There are crazy people who are in need of attention but are otherwise harmless. Then there are crazy people who want to inflict violence on people. I'm more concerned about the latter than the former. The latter needs help too. Calling them crazy to dismiss them is foolish.

  733. It's a shame the entire Republican party doesn't share her commitment to democracy. They screwed up knocking her out of office. She will forever be the woman who sacrificed her office for the nation and the people. He just built a TON of political capital, and she WILL cash it in sometime.

That, what looks like a 4-year-old girl wearing a Hooters T-shirt posing with Hooters waitresses really doesn't look good. Also, drag isn't inherently sexual. If you think it is, don't ever let your kids watch Bugs Bunny.

  738. Even the most evil people in history said some things that ended up being correct. You really shouldn't be quoting them though. There are a myriad of ways they could have said that without citing Adolph Hitler. They are showing you who they are, and who they are are goddamned fascists.

  743. I can't think of a single person, no matter how good, I'd be willing to burn this country down for. Yet, for the right, they'll burn it down for goddamned Trump? This nation needs a political enema.

  746. I've never had the power or prestige someone like Donald Trump had, so it's hard for me to say if I'd be drunk with said power enough to think I can force women to do what I want or delude myself into believing such women wanted or allowed me to do what I want. I hope I wouldn't fall into such a self-imposed mental trap. The fact that he has and for so long is just proof we can't allow him even more power, seeing as how easily he abuses it.

    1
  751. I'll give you a very simple definition of woke when it comes to the MAGA party. Anything and everything that isn't extreme far right is woke, be that center right to far left. So, basically, 90% of America is woke, anything that's not on their fascist agenda is woke.

  752. This woman reads the U.S. Constitution the way she reads the Bible... not at all and allowing some radical moron tell her what they want her to believe it says.

  753. The reason the specifically mentioned a well regulated militia in the second amendment is because the founding fathers did NOT want a standing army! It was partially what Texas Paul said and partially to repel a foreign invasion in a time when wooden sailing ships dropped soldiers on land to invade. And everyone had singe shot muskets. A well drilled minuteman could fire two whole shots a minute. Our founding fathers could see quite far, but they couldn't foresee weapons of war capable of being wielded by one man able to kill dozens of men in that same time. That's why the constitution was meant to be a living document at best and replaced often at worst, to be able to change with the times.

  754. Rand Paul reminds me of a George Carlin joke. "Somewhere in the world is the worst doctor, and someone has an appointment to see him tomorrow!" Rand Paul is a terrible excuse for a doctor. His knowledge is in the eyes, not the lungs or heart.

  759. If Donald Trump thinks the media is taking him out of context, he really needs to learn not to say things that would so easily taken out of context. He's NOT being taken out of context; he absolutely wants to be a dictator. But if he really was, he'd, I don't know, LEARN from his mistakes and stop repeating them. This is just him being stupid and trying desperately to blame others for his stupidity.

  760. A bathroom door DOES lock! Oh, but from the inside. Hell, it makes it more likely someone could steal those documents, they just get in and lock the door. Unless we're talking about a gas station bathroom, bathroom doors rarely have a key to unlock. The lock on a bathroom door is to protect the privacy of the person inside it, not to protect others from getting in when no one else is.
    1
  761. What's going to destroy Trump isn't prison, the threat of prison, or even a conviction. It's going to be living in a fantasy land his entire life and have reality suddenly burst through his bubble. It'll be like sunlight to Dracula.

  762. Alaskans don't like a quitter and that's what Ms. Palin is. Notice I didn't call her governor? Because she didn't even serve one full term. She quit to become a personality in the media and failed hard at that to boot.

  764. This woman thinks women shouldn't be allowed to vote. Yet she votes. Thinking isn't her strong suit. Most women vote for their own interests, GASP! Oh, wait, so do men. Yeah, maybe she shouldn't be voting, she's not informed enough to do so responsibly.

  766. If you want to be pedantic, and I suppose I do, when considering the entire world, the norm is being Asian, primarily oriental. Sure, in the U.S. the norm is white, straight, and Christian, but as a president your job isn't to represent ONLY the majority but ALL citizens. Black, Hispanic, Asian, Middle Eastern, gay, bisexual, asexual, atheist, Jew, Muslim, Buddhist, and on, and so forth. EVERYONE! By saying you're going to fixate on only one group, I'd say that disqualifies you as president.

  767. We've had the same kind of think happen here in Oklahoma. Not with abortion rights, that was a foregone conclusion here. We had a prison reform ballot measure that overwhelmingly passed, and the legislature claimed that the Oklahoman people didn't know or understand what they were voting for and quashed it.

  768. In the mind of Tucker Carlson and his cult followers, democracy itself is the rig, allowing people to vote for people they don't like is what is wrong.

It doesn't surprise me at all that these buffoons are capable of trying to murder FBI agents because they'll be freed without them there. They aren't thinking rationally, they seem constitutionally incapable of such.

  772. Republicans can't do math, they don't understand the system they're using to gain power except how to cheat, and they wouldn't know leadership if it walked up and slapped them hard in the mouth. They're ignorant as hell, and they believe their voters are too. So far, they've been proven correct. So, it's going to take the rest of us who aren't to vote in higher numbers to ensure that stupidity doesn't reign.

  773. At best, a fetus is potential life. There is never and has never been a guarantee that any conception will result in a person. This isn't an argument about life, it's an argument about religious doctrine. Science would not be arguing about such things. They want all fertilized eggs to be people for the sake of their religious doctrine, yet most fertilized eggs don't become people. Most don't implant and grow into a fetus and then into a baby. I will always preference actual life over potential life, 100%.

  778. Nixon being pardoned was NOT good for this country. It led to the idea that presidents can't be held accountable when they do obviously criminal things. Yes, a pardon presupposes guilt, but not having been in any form of legal jeopardy means the pardon prevented justice. Would we have hurt as a nation dragging Nixon through the courts? Probably, but it would have restored integrity to the office he abused and Trump took to insurrection.

  783. Leave it to Republicans to get the stuffing knocked out of them and blame the other side for it instead of themselves. They always take credit when they succeed but never accept responsibility when they fail.

  793. I have four adopted cousins. I have one adopted niece and one adopted nephew, and I love them as much as I do my biological niece and nephew. My grandfather was adopted by his family. My grandmother's father was adopted by his family. We have a lot of adoption in our family. This was a hateful attack on a lesbian woman for having a family she doesn't believe should exist. Fuck Marjorie Taylor Greene.

  794. The right wing is just salty that their celebrities can't hold a candle to the left's celebrities. Kid Rock isn't breaking box office records with his music. Ted Nugent is a washed-up old has-been. If you're on the right and a celebrity, you either keep your mouth shut and do your song and dance or you end up having people stop watching\listening to you.

We need to take it back or throw it at them and build a new flag that stands for the good things while they celebrate evil.

  800. Let's not ignore the less than subtle jab at Pete Buttigieg's sexuality MTG made there. Immaculate, as though because Buttigieg isn't masculine because he's homosexual. You know, not all homosexual men are the stereotype of a limp-wristed, lisping, swishy, effeminate, "flaming queer" conservatives like to portray. I've genuinely known only one homosexual man that was even close to that stereotype, the rest most of us wouldn't know were homosexual unless they told you they were.

  803. Didn't Johnny Knoxville already make this movie, except portraying a normal person pretending to be mentally handicapped to compete in the Special Olympics? Hell, in that one, he hung around the people he was imitating and learned to respect them. So, not at all the same movie. Fascists are incapable of real empathy or understanding.

  804. If constipation had a human face, it'd be Sean Hannity's.

  805. The idea of a small-government conservative is and always has been 100% weapon's grade bullshit. They want the government to be small when their pet projects require no governmental oversite (primarily greed and selfishness), and big enough to monitor every person in the nation when those projects require it (likewise, greed and selfishness). They have only one principle, "it's my way or the highway." Push them out, they don't deserve power when they use it to harm the people they are sworn to protect.

  816. While I agree with you, we and the right are having totally different arguments. Our argument is over bodily autonomy and protecting actual life over potential life. Their argument is that it's a human being, a person that needs protecting over and above the women who are carrying them. There is no common ground. Their position is based in religion, ours is based in scientific fact. We can't have a functioning debate. We need to force the issue to be a secular right and allow the religious to simply opt out. But they don't see it that way. Another debate with no ground where they believe they have the right to push their religious agendas through the power of the state. Never back down and never surrender. Push them into the sea of we have to.

  817. Yes, there should be an investigation. Not to assess guilt per se, but to discern how these documents made it out of the White House. Maybe there needs to be a new protocol for ensuring classified materials stay where they need to be instead of migrating out into the world. Biden shouldn't have been able to inadvertently walk off with classified documents and Trump shouldn't have been able to literally steal them.

  818. They push a false neutrality bias, what you're calling both sidesing an issue. They want their access. They make money selling an image, not reporting the facts or cultivating the truth. It's not enough to dryly recite facts, you have to put it in context.

  819. To be fair, her voters don't know any of this. They think their voting on a bill means she did what she claimed she would. She's an ignorant woman and she's representing ignorant people.

  820. "This is why we're losing our country." Because you can't control yourself and behave in a civilized manner? Hell, I agree. Yes, I know that's not what she means, but it is the truth.

  821. He claims his viewpoint is the Bible. Oh yeah? So, you're going to obey your messiah and give all what you own to the poor, seek peace above all condemning war, and you will not judge others lest you be judged? No? Then you aren't a follower of Christ, you're just a fanboy, and not even a good one.

  827. That's a terrible idea! You want this nation to fail? Letting red states screw up public education in their states will have an adverse effect on the blue states. If the Republicans fail as a party, it's not going to be campaign and caviar for Democrats, it'll be an anchor around our neck while we're barely treading water.

  828. This happened once at Fox when they fired Bill O'Reilly. Assuming Smartmatic doesn't deliver a coup de grace, they'll bounce back from this and put another flatulating butthead in his place.

  830. Desantis winning the Republican nomination and Trump deciding to run 3rd party would be the DREAM 2024 election! Those two would do real damage to the Republican fascist party and maybe some sane people will take it over after the Democrats win BIG.

  832. Republicans' ideology can't survive a fight against reality. No one's can. But where you or I reconfigure our ideologies when newer and\or more useful information comes in, we change our ideologies to fit. They can't or won't, and so they have to live in a complete fantasy world in order to maintain it.

  833. Here's a man who hates the DEI programs because they're "useless" degrees, but wouldn't take out other niche programs. The so-called underwater basket weaving type courses. Just the ones HE doesn't like. Maybe he should read books instead of banning them.

  837. Yes, it's alive, yes, it's a human being, but NO, it's not a person. A fetus is, at best, a potential person. A fertilized egg even less so. Most fertilized eggs don't implant and get washed out during those lovely few days a month a woman has. Even if it implants and grows to be a fetus, that is no guarantee that it will be born viable or be born at all. Miscarriages happen all the time. These backwards arguments are starting from the conclusion they desire and working backwards. Religion is wrong here, as it usually is, and it's also against the Constitution to use it for governance.

  839. I've found a person telling a lie will say things almost exactly the same with each telling. It's a rhetorical trick to cement the lie in the mind. Telling the truth, each telling tends to be unique with the core details being consistent, not identical.

  841. They torpedoed this bill because it was earmarked under mandatory spending. Mandatory, as in MUST pay. They wanted it under discretionary spending. Discretionary, as in, we can decide not to pay if we feel like it. Why on EARTH would you make paying for veterans who served and were exposed to harmful chemicals on your say-so something you might decide to cut off? I mean, I thought they were the "support the troops" party.

  846. The issue with Stochastic Terrorism is that the ones engaging in it can hide behind the law, claiming that a reasonable person wouldn't take what they say as a call for violence. The thing is, they are deliberately targeting unreasonable people. We need to create stochastic terrorism laws to take people who engage in it out of public discourse.

  860. Amen!

  861. Do you know why our founding fathers built a wall of separation between church and state? For the sake of both. If the state takes charge of the church, it's corruption. When the church takes over the state, it's tyranny. I say let them try. After the war between the different sects is over and the bodies are buried, the rest of us might be able to have a nation run by rational people, not religious ideologues.

  863. Don't forget, Jefferson edited the bible with a machete, cutting out all miracles, claims of divinity, and supernatural events and titled it The Life and Moral Teachings of Jesus of Nazareth. Yet, he is deified by the right as damned near a holy icon. He must be spinning in his grave.

  864.  @glennhecker4422  Have you BEEN to America? There is nothing MORE American to do than hate people because of their differences! Wrong skin color, wrong economic ideas, wrong party affiliation, pray to the wrong god or no god at all. Any Christian who has benevolent ideals aren't because of their religious beliefs, it's because secular governments, like ours, yanked the, into the modern age. If you ran your life exclusively by the rules laid out in the Bible, you'd be a criminal in literally EVERY COUNTRY ON EARTH!

  871. The concept of freedom of speech and the legal protection of the same are not necessarily the same thing. "Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances." Not Twitter, not Facebook, not YouTube, Congress.

  885. The 19th amendment: "The right of citizens of the United States to vote shall not be denied or abridged by the United States or by any State on account of sex. Congress shall have power to enforce this article by appropriate legislation." The argument here essentially that, by taking away women's bodily autonomy you are removing their right to make their choices.

I guarantee that, had that been the exact same group of kids, the same pose at the window, the same excitement to take a selfie, but it had been Trump, these people claiming pedophilia on Biden would be saying how great and patriotic it was with Trump. They have one standard, hate all things Democratic.

  888. It's fair to attack Lauren Boebert for her stupidity. I don't think it's fair to attack her for getting a G.E.D. I know plenty of genuinely smart people who got G.E.D.s because they had to quit high school for one reason or another. Failing a G.E.D. three times is fair game though, because they aren't exactly the hardest thing to earn.

  896. Man, Trump should be glad he's not living in the fantasy world he's selling his audience. Why? Because that fantasy world would have already taken him and his followers out, lined them up against a wall, and shot them. If there were a just and loving God, Trump would have been struck mute.

  897. I'm from Oklahoma. I can't stand the leadership in this state. This stupidity has made me agree with my state's senator and that's bizarre.

  898. Boebert just came dangerously close to telling people she wants a man kicked out of his officer for DOING HIS JOB AND DOING IT WELL! She WANTS disfunction! She WANTS chaos! She can't keep power if people aren't afraid because things are working well. THIS is why they need to be removed from office and polite society; they're actively harming it for personal gain.
    1
  899. God, they just love to glom onto the idea of toxic masculinity and just claim that's all feminism is, hating on men. Toxic masculinity isn't all masculinity is toxic. It's that there are a spectrum of typical masculine behavior and some of it is toxic. Some of that toxic behavior isn't even about harming others. Ignoring one's own pain because "I'm tough" is toxic masculinity. They probably should do a better job explaining ideals of positive or nurturing masculinity, but you don't fix what's working well, you fix what's broken, what's toxic.

  901. J.D. Vance is a complete moron's impression of an intellectual. "But he went to an Ivy League school!" Doesn't make him smart. Plenty of stupid people end up in ivy league schools. In fact, far, FAR more intelligent people graduate from state schools than Ivy League schools.

  902. "Sorry about the language." I'm not. What language is one supposed to use when totally frustrated and completely angry at incompetence, graft, and greed? "Oh pussyfeathers! I'm gosh darn angry! These politicians can go to H E double hockey sticks!" We have coarse language for a reason.

  903. Beware politicians using the phrase, "we want to teach people how to think." They aren't against indoctrination at all, they just want to limit the indoctrination that opposes their own indoctrination.

  905. They aren't aware of Trump's failures, not really. They've doubtlessly heard about them, but they believe it's "fake news." They believe it's a smear campaign on their dear leader, not the reality that it is. They want to pretend they're the noble patriots when they are the mindless drones of a man trying to destroy this nation in order to rebuild it in his image. They're fools. We can pity them, but do not feel sorry for them. They shot themselves in the foot and need to hobble around until they realize how wounded they are.
    1
  906. He only ran because he knew his political capital was about to dry up. He's been in congress, he's term-limited out of being governor again, if he didn't take his shot now, he knew it'd never happen again. That's terrible reasoning to try and run for president.
    1
  907. If they're trying to court the Fox crowd, becoming Fox Lite isn't going to work. They either have to become worse than Fox to get their audience or be at least just as bad. Thing is, the Fox audience is loyal to their ideology and CNN will never be able to make that transition. The only thing they're going to do is destroy a good chunk of their audience and lose money. No ideology is true, and if you're trying to build a network around one over what is working and profitable now, your ideology is going to destroy you.

  909. Old joke, a very dumb woman discovers her husband has been cheating on her. She confronts him with a gun in hand. He tries to calm her down. She points the gun at her temple and say, "don't worry, you're next." Republicans are acting out this joke, politically speaking.

  914. I used to consume the anti-SJW content on YouTube. At the time, it seemed like liberal minded people going after the crazy fringe people on the left. After about a year, I started to see that it really wasn't that. I'm still no fan of SJWs, but I'd rather never be around anyone but SJWs for the rest of my life than to have to deal with one more rabid, frothing-at-the-mouth anti-SJW.

  915. Jimmy Kimmel isn't only more popular than Donald Trump, he's more popular than all of MAGA and the Republican party.

  916. I don't believe Matt Gaetz when he says that if the Democrats help elect a moderate Republican he'd resign. Not a word of it. He needs the weight of his office and the support of his MAGA colleagues to stay out of prison at this point. If he's out of office, he's in prison.

  922. Two people here died over a flag. One for flying it, one for being so hateful and full of right-wing stupidity that he felt the need to kill over it and then not surrender to police for the crime he committed. Two totally useless deaths because of indoctrination and hateful propaganda.

  923. Nancy Pelosi, the first time she was speaker, was one of the most effective speakers of the house we've had. Kevin McCarthy on day one is already one of the most ineffective speakers in history. He will not get a single bill passed not naming a new post office.

  925. I am an atheist, but I'm still pretty sure that Christian woman was just speaking blasphemy. Also, a man with money who won't spend even one day in jail even if he's convicted of each and every crime he's ever done isn't suffering. To compare him being forced to account to a man being crucified is literally insane. Finally, if there ever was a man alive today that really would deserve to experience the agony of crucifixion for all the pain and suffering they've inflicted in the world, Donald Trump would be high on that list.
    1
  926. Representative democracy is a system where people vote for who they want to represent their interests in government. It's dependent on candidates earning the trust and respect of their electorate. Why do you think Republicans are trying to rig the system? They aren't able to win the battle of ideas anymore. They used to be competitive, not great, but competitive. They've become intellectually lazy and can no longer win on merit of even the thinnest form.
    1
  927. "A credible source." Okay. How do we determine if a source is credible? Well, first and foremost, the source has to be known, who this person is, what they do, where they work in government (as it is an agent of the government). Then we have to examine the evidence being presented for accuracy to determine if it is what they claim it to be. None of that has happened yet, so this is NOT a credible source.
    1
  928. This "pastor" lied when he said he doesn't have a problem with trans people being trans if they do so in their own home. He knows how psychotic it sounds to be so hateful while pretending to be spreading love, so he tries, unsuccessfully, to soften his rhetoric with this lie, make it sound like his problem isn't with the people but "forcing" others to have to deal with them. Let me tell you, everyone is who and what they are. White, black, straight, gay, cis, trans, whatever else. We all have to deal with people we might not be entirely comfortable with, but we do it anyway if we're decent people. This white Christofascist nonsense is extremely very indecent.

  929. Pence didn't properly certify the election out of a sense of duty, he did so out of fear. He saw the coup coming and was afraid that, if he went along with it, the coup would be thwarted, and he'd be put tried for treason.

  930. Amen! We literally can't take people's guns away, even if legislation were to be passed that made that the law. But DAMN people, NO regulations AT ALL? No one without proper training should ever handle a gun, period. Train, license, and regulate gun ownership, teach people to respect weapons as dangerous not glorious.

  933. Sounds like a typical Republican to me. Why tell the truth when a lie will do?
    1
  934. Republicans have never been pro-life. They're pro-birth. As George Carlin put, once you're born, they don't want to hear from you. No preschool, no healthcare, no head start, no nothing. If you're preborn, you're fine, if you're preschool, you're fucked.

  941. Can I point out the likelihood of a ten-year-old girl and her baby dying are both quite high. So, the question that NEEDS asking is, "are you in favor of a child dying to protect your religious ideology?"
    1
  942.  @carultch  Shit, sorry. I just saw I forgot the word dying. The likelihood of both the child and her baby dying in labor is quite high. It could have been inferred by the second sentence, but I screwed up. I'll rewrite it.
    1
  943. This is what happens when you live in a fantasy land instead of reality. Eventually, reality is going to win out and you're going to be crushed under it.

  944. Republicans love calling things woke, but they can never, NEVER, define it. I'll define it for them. Anything a Republican doesn't like is woke. Were they children seated at the dinner table, they'd be calling Lima beans and Brussels sprouts woke.
    1
  945. Right-wing political strategy of late seems to be aim gun at foot, cock the hammer, squeeze the trigger, wail in pain, and then blame the left for it all.
    1
  946. So, you're telling me Kim Jong Un doesn't like Joe Biden but does like Donald Trump and there are people who thinks that's a good thing for Trump? The man who starves his own people so he can be fat and happy and threatens nuclear Armageddon so he can look tough hates one guy and the Republican party hates that guy, and he likes one guy and the Republican party likes that guy, and we're not meant to draw the connection that the Republican party isn't wholly evil at this point?
    1
  947. Yo, Texas Paul! If Texas secedes, you moving? I mean, I'd tell Texas Republicans, "don't let the door hit you on the way out, because I don't want your greasy ass prints on my clean door." After a good third of the state empties out because they're Americans first and Texans second and all of the U.S. property like military bases\equipment and NASA are taken away, they'll only have agriculture and oil to sustain themselves. They think that'd be good, but it'd be like a North American Saudia Arabia. A tiny wealthy elite and TONS of 3rd world poverty. Plus, the power of the Republican party of the U.S. would get cut right in half with Texas gone. We'd let them come back, of course, but it's getting spit into 4 states.

  950. The Republican party only has one value, power. They will chase it at all costs and throw whatever morals or dignity they have into the fire to claim it.

  951. If even one of these idiots tying up the VA suicide hotline resulted in one veteran's death, the whole lot of them need to be charged with murder.

  952. These people think of Spartans and Romans when they think of the military, where it's masculinity and cruelty that makes an efficient military. We aren't in the bronze or even the iron age anymore. We aren't killing each other with swords and bows anymore. We fight with guns and planes, and women can handle both. Gay people can kill just as easily as a straight person, and a trans person can fly a jet just as well as a cisgender person.
    1
  953. Most of the founding fathers were NOT Christians. Most of them were deists, believing in a higher power, but that power wasn't the Christian or even the Abrahamic God. Thomas Jefferson wrote a version of the Bible removing all the miracles and claims of divinity from Jesus. Tell me that man was a Christian.

  957. The Republicans serve a group of extreme fat cats with a giant stack of cookies talking to a man with one cookie, pointing at an immigrant with no cookies telling them, "that immigrant is trying to take your cookie." Maybe if we dragged the fat cats out into the street, took all their hoarded wealth and spread it around for everyone, we might be able to fix the immigration issue.

  958. This is a group of people defending law enforcement who put a vigilante's symbol on their squad cars.

  959. Trump compared himself to Jesus, which I'm fairly sure is blasphemy. The Bible isn't meant to be altered, also blasphemy. So, we have a blasphemer selling a corrupted Bible to cult members. I want ring-side seats when these evangelicals have to explain themselves before their lord.

  960. Funny enough, it's cheaper both in the short term and in the long term to be a good person. Too bad these MAGA freaks don't understand that.
    1
  961. It's like watching a broken calculator add 2 and 2 and come up with 7. Their brains are totally broken. I cannot vote for a member of any party if they're criminal or threatening to do things that are against the law. If the Democrat on the ticket was impeached twice, fomented an insurrection, and was under multiple criminal investigations\indictments and the Republican was not, I'd hold my nose and vote for the Republican. Either their brains really are broken or they're saying that they'd still vote Trump publicly and then privately vote for Biden or just not vote at all.
    1
  962. They don't care what WE think, they only care what MAGA fascist morons think. They'll lie, gaslight, spin, and whatever else they think they can do to rile up their people so that fascist coup attempt number 2 will be more successful.
    1
  963. Let's say, for the sake of argument, this man successfully pushed back this cadre of FBI agents with his weapons. Did he really think killing the ones that showed up or making them retreat means that's the end? Did he really not understand that they'd come back en masse and in force? These people with the fantasy they're going to destroy what they consider tyranny with their pitiful little militias with their precious little guns need to pay attention here. You fight the U.S. government, you rise up to overthrow it, you're going to be leaving feet first in a body bag.

  970. Chris Christie isn't running to be president. He knows he's not going to be president. He's running to bloody up Trump, and for that reason alone, I fully support Chris Christie.

  971. If I had a subject I was passionate about and got up on stage to talk about it then started seeing a lot of Nazis surrounding me cheering what I'm talking about, I'd feel sick and the need to stop and reconsider what my position is. If anyone cheers Nazis and your reaction is, "hell yeah, I like Nazis too," you're an evil person.

  972. So, his argument is that allowing Sweden and Finland into NATO won't protect America? What? How? Having more member nations to be able to rally behind whatever threat is attacking its member nations IS protecting America. Man needs to take remedial logic classes.

  976. George Carlin had a bit about the world's worst doctor. Process of elimination, someone in the world is the world's worst doctor and someone has an appointment to see him tomorrow. Alina Habba is the world's worst lawyer.
    1
  977. For the Republican party, the problems are worth more than the solutions. They can endlessly blame the system being broken and promise to fix it to get votes, then get in and blame Democrats for not doing what they want to do. It's a scam that works on the weak minded and the foolish.
    1
  978. So, the left is upset at this AI stuff because it will put human creators out of work, but the right is upset because it's "woke." That's the political dynamic of today in a nutshell. The left is worried about people and rights, the left is worried about image and the culture war.

  979. What a despicable cretin. When asked a simple question, he's shown he doesn't have the wherewithal or self-control necessary to answer it. How is he going to be a leader if he can't control himself?

  980. How the hell is he still here? I'm surprised the entirety of the Republican party hasn't killed him and eaten him to absorb his powers of total bullshit!
    1
  981. The Bible defense... Lest we forget, the Bible has a section LITERALLY telling priests how to perform an abortion! Numbers 5: 11-31, the ordeal of the bitter water. The idea is, if the wife of a man was suspected to have gotten pregnant by being unfaithful, she would drink this bitter water. If she were unfaithful, she would miscarry. The Bible is used by religious zealots to argue both sides of any issue which means it defends neither.
    1
  982. Loren Merchan may indeed have a financial stake in the outcome of the trial her father is presiding over, but not in the way Trump is trying to make out. If anything, her company may very well get MORE income should Trump be acquitted in said case in order to counteract Trump's subsequent greater influence. Of course, this isn't about impropriety or the appearance of impartiality, it's about Trump dragging his feet and slowing things down.
    1
  983. They didn't fire Tucker over the Dominion lawsuit, the settlement, or because of optics. He was still their number one money maker. There's only one reason to cut a limb off when it's otherwise functional, and that's when it becomes malignant. There is a lot of behind-the-scenes drama going on here, likely him battling with management or butting heads with the executives. He got too big for his britches, as the saying goes.

  984. I'd be very glad to do Marjorie Taylor Green's job for half her pay.

  985. Short term, be vigilant. Long term, we need to make stochastic terrorism a crime. Too long have we played coy with people advocating violence and hiding behind turns of phrase and claiming free speech.
    1
  986. It takes a level of selflessness and self-sacrifice to be in our military. Donald Trump is far too selfish and self-serving to ever join such an organization.
    1
  987. Tough people don't talk tough and tough talkers are never tough. He'll weep like a little baby when those bars slam shut behind him.

  988. Pray all you want, it's not helping. Two hands working accomplish infinitely more than a million hands clasped in prayer. If your God were as just and loving as you claim, he'd stop this evil, and he'd stop you being tied to the MAGA cult.

  989. On this channel I went from Mathew McConaughey's speech about Uvalde, heart wrenching and sad, to this. What a roller coaster.

  990. I think of all the presidents we have had assassinated, why on Earth hasn't someone even taken a potshot at Trump?

  991. Tucker's laugh is creepier than The Joker's.

  992. Remember when the Republican party was populated by adults? Yeah, me neither.
    1
  993. Don't you love it when an entitled Karen believe they have the right to fire an employee from a company? I'm sure, somewhere in that store, is a sign that says, "we reserve the right to refuse service to anyone." Basically, don't be belligerent, don't act entitled, don't start fights. Buy your stuff and go. If there is something wrong with the product you bought, it's not the employee's fault. Be courteous and you will be treated well.
    1
  994. The greatest thing to happen to the Republican party in my lifetime was Fox News. The decline of Republican ideology and ability to function in the real world is also caused by Fox News. Fox News gave them a large propaganda network which gave them undo political power, but it also totally atrophied their ability to make cogent arguments and made them intellectually and politically lazy. If things keep going the way they have been, Fox News will inevitably be the downfall of the Republican party.
    1
  995. Liz Cheney will forever be the candidate that sacrificed her office for the nation. When the Trump fever inevitably breaks, she will be VERY powerful.
    1
  996. Nixon WAS the most popular president of his time... until he wasn't. If he hadn't gotten stooges to break into Watergate to steal Democrat's plans, he'd have finished his term and probably continue to be the standard bearer to this day. Instead, he broke the people's trust and became the most reviled Republican until goddamned Donald Trump. Sad thing is, Nixon had more integrity in his little finger than the entirety of the Republican party does today, and he had almost none.
    1
  997. There aren't checks and balances any longer. Congress refused to do their duty and remove the president. The Judiciary acts via fiat, choosing their preferred outcome and then seeking excuses to enact said outcome. The whole lot of them have committed treason upon the people of this nation and need to suffer the consequences, and I believe the prescribed outcome for treason is hanging.
    1
  998. I will disagree this is exclusively about race. It IS a major component today, I won't deny. However, if there weren't brown-skinned people coming up from Mexico and we had a glut of Ukranian or Polish refugees coming to this country by the thousands, hardline conservatives would be against it because of cultural reasons. One only has to look to Irish and Italian immigration in the 1800s to see how conservatives would treat white Europeans coming over and "polluting" American culture.

  999. Larry Kudlow wouldn't have to tiptoe around the jobs number and apologize to the right wing if he and his entire party weren't so dead set on living entirely within a total fantasy world.

  1000. We've staved off fascism for another 2 years. Let's hope we can strange this abomination in the crib, so we don't have to stave it off 2 years hence.
    1
  1001. The last time Donald Trump suffered consequences for his actions, his older brother dumped a bowl of mashed potatoes on his head. He was a child then.
    1
  1002. Let's not forget The Bible was used to argue both for and against the institution of slavery. If an article is being used to argue both sides of an issue, it argues neither. Speaker Johnson says his views are "The Bible," but it has nothing to say on American governance. He's arguing on behalf of his ideology and using The Bible as a shield. I'm sure his lord and savior is weeping tears of blood with how much the Republican party is abusing his name.
    1
  1003. It's nice to see someone who is an advocate for rights for gun owners that isn't an NRA ammosexual propagandist.
    1
  1004. I do think about Republicans when I enter the voting booth. That thought is, "I'm going to do what I can to keep them out of office." It's not to spite them or the "own" them, but to keep their fascist hands off the levers of power.
    1
  1005. Either Texas needs to be broken up into smaller states or many smaller states need to be combined into much larger states to counteract Texas's lopsided level of power in America's national government.
    1
  1006. The function of business is antithetical the function of government. Business (the way it's currently run) is to extract the maximum amount of money, it's about exploitation. Government is meant to protect the largest number of people. If anything, business needs to be run like a government where they serve the needs of their customers and employees first. Long term stability is preferable to short term gains.
    1
  1007. NBC is trying to hedge their bets, curry some level of favor with the MAGA party so they don't get executed should Trump retake office. They wouldn't have to hedge their bets if they were intelligent enough to have destroyed Trump instead of carrying water for him.
    1
  1008. If I were ever caught disrespecting women the way Republicans do, my mom, my grandmother, and my grandfather all would have slapped the shit out of me over that.

  1018. I'm sorry, but if making your next quarter extremely profitable is done so at the expense of 10, 20, 30 plus years down the line, what good is that short term profit? You can earn more in a lackluster decade than you can a phenomenal quarter. Long term stability should be prioritized over short term gains.
    1
  1019. School lunches are a band-aid solution. Not against doing it, but a functioning society shouldn't have people so poor they can't afford to eat. If a child is hungry, we all failed that child.

  1021. Has there ever been a man with more of a capacity for talking out of both sides of his ass than Donald Trump?

  1022. The sad thing is, when they do FINALLY accept that they were in a cult, most of them won't move away from cultish behaviors or groups. Many of them were in a cult before and they'll be in another one after. They need people in their lives that can pull them away from the cult, away from fantasy and into reality and not be judgmental. Some of us have a hard time not being judgmental, giving people the, "it's about time," spiel. Try being more welcoming. I know it is hard, and that you're hurting, but we're glad to have you here with us now. Welcome and be safe.

  1023. Man, how weak is your position as a politician that you get dunked on by SNOOKI? You could knock that guy off his perch with a gentle breeze.
    1
  1024. There is a massive cognitive disconnect between "God makes no mistakes" and the fact that abortion is a thing. If God makes no mistakes, then he allowed abortion to come to be. If he allowed it to come to be, then it's only right we use it as needed. Either everything is part of God's plan, including abortion, or nothing is.

  1028. Why on earth would we want to offer Russia membership in NATO. The point is to cooperate and work together. Russia is all about Russia alone and they're incompetent in that goal. Why would we bring in such an incompetent nation into our aid?
    1
  1029. There are things that work well under capitalism. If you're going to sell something a person wants but doesn't really need to survive, capitalism is fantastic. When to come for the things that are vital for life, medicine, food, education, and genuine, honest news, capitalism ruins. Greed destroys everything.

  1032. I've been saying that the right treats Nancy Pelosi as a boogeyman, mostly mockingly. "Oh, they're terrified of an 82-year-old woman!" Well, they should be. She's one of the most successful speakers of the house that we've had, and she knows how to fight.
    1
  1033. You can tell Donald Trump thought this interview went well.
    1
  1034. Sad thing is, the people who voted for this schmuck aren't going to see him as a hypocrite. They've been so thoroughly gaslit that they see lies as truth, criminality as lawfulness, and extreme partisanship as bipartisan reasonableness.

  1040. Honest to God, what idiot thought taking a bunch of garbage, throwing it into a hole, soaking it in diesel fuel, and lighting it on fire was a good idea? Whoever did that killed more soldiers than all the Al Qaeda insurgents ever did.

  1042. There are trends with advancing age. If I told you a 95-year-old was flying your plane, you would feel trepidation, even if a doctor told you the pilot was in excellent health. Excellent health at 30 is WAY different than excellent health of someone three times older. A president is different than a pilot. There are WAY more redundancies and safeguards with the president than there are with pilots. There is great evidence that Ronald Regan was senile at least since his second term. I'm less worried about a slightly slower Joe Biden than a totally deranged Donald Trump.

  1044. Never met a conservative that wasn't either easily fooled or a craven opportunist. Black, white, Asian, doesn't matter. It does seem to be harder to be a black conservative with the wanton racism on display. I mean, you have to be fooling yourself a lot and be tremendously greedy\selfish to be able to put up with people that look at you as subhuman.
    1
  1045. I think Sarah Palin is right that this is a battle between control and freedom, between good and evil. Thing she's not telling you is which side of that she's on. Her posse might believe they're on the good and freedom loving side, but they aren't. They want to control us all and they are evil.

  1046. A good presidential candidate appeals to their base, their opposition, and the people in between. Trump can only appeal to his base. All this nonsense works well for his base, but it really turns everyone else off.

  1047. That "badge" was purple. Even if it was a badge, it'd be so obviously fake it's not funny.

  1053. To be fair, most people's legal understanding typically comes from fiction. While Twelve Angry Men is a wonderful movie and superbly acted by all the actors in it, it IS a completely fictional trial and a completely fictional jury. Real life is rarely so exciting or compelling. I mean, most your court procedural TV shows skip all the boring parts of a trial for the exciting parts, and while they aren't typically making up the law in those shows, they are making up how people react in those shows.

  1057. This was likely a stunt with the zinger, "well, I thought Massachusetts WANTS to help illegal immigrants!"
    1
  1058. As an Oklahoman, I can confirm, we do think Markwayne Mullin's name is stupid. I happened to think he's profoundly stupid too. I mean, picking a fight with the Teamsters Union president? Say they did throw down on the floor, how long do you think it would have taken before a brick caved his skull in? I'd bet 2 minutes, tops.

  1060. What I am looking forward to now is watching to see how the Republican party is going to try to spin this, try to find a way around this, or try to enforce their ideology in spite of the people's will. They're destroying their party more and more the further they try to drag the Overton Window rightward.
    1
  1061. They read the Constitution the way they read The Bible. They look for anything to confirm their preconceived ideas and ignore everything else. Is it any wonder they start reading the second amendment 14 words in, more than half the wording of said amendment, skipping the part about regulating arms?
    1
  1062. The last Trump that tried to forge his own path was Fred Trump Jr. and he couldn't escape long enough. It ended up killing him in the end. Don Jr. doesn't want to end up like his uncle. Better rich and in his father's shadow forever than to forge his own path and end up poor and\or dead.

  1069. Why do idiot religious people think there isn't a separation of church and state in the constitution? Yes, the phrase, "wall of separation" doesn't appear in the constitution, but one of the framers of said constitution wrote to a religious organization that's what the first amendment does. Besides that, separation of church and state isn't only to protect the state, it protects the church too. They never seem to realize that one denomination might take over and oppose or outlaw their denomination.

We'll start having political discussions where it's one side pushing a child punishing agenda and the other side is trying to show how insane that is and the Overton Window gets pulled ever rightward. They don't need to succeed in their ideas, they just need to make their wackier ideas seem slightly fringe instead of out of the question like they should be then their bad ideas seem decent by comparison.

  1085. You can't trust a corporation to do the right thing. That's why we have government regulation, to use the power of the state to force them to do what is right. And don't fool yourself, even if they decide to replace worn out lines with buried cables, they'll still pass that onto the consumer so they can keep their bonuses. Maybe if we had regulations preventing them from behaving that way, we'd have a modern power grid and not this old style that they can just keep making money with the least possible amount of effort.

  1089. I'm an Oklahoman. I got a decent education here in the 80s and 90s. Not a great education, but a decent one. Ryan Walters has screwed things up so badly that my nieces and nephews, in the same schools I attended, are getting an education that makes mine look like an ivy league education.

  1090. Nixon's criminality was an infection on the body politick and Ford gave us an aspirin. Sure, it calmed things down, but it didn't kill the infection. Donald Trump is a flare up of the same goddamned infection and it's spreading at an alarming rate. We don't need another aspirin; we need a massive dose of antibiotics to kill this off once and for all. Hold him to account or this nation will die.

  1092. While sunsetting isn't a de facto removal of a bill or program, it is far more likely with such a divided congress. Plus, if all Americans expect the Republicans to try and cancel it or cut it drastically, it will get more Democrats elected in every state. It's a dumb idea by rank ideologues who can't see past their next election.

They wanted people with some level of education running things, not conspiracy nuts. They were wrong, of course, what we needed was universal education, something which Republicans have been trying to kill for decades. Either way, allowing something THIS stupid wield the levers of power is going to cripple this nation.

  1100. Conservatives read the U.S. constitution the way the read the Bible. They look for the parts that confirm their ideologies and ignore the rest. The overlap with cut-and-paste Christian that quote Bible verses out of context is massive with the people that quote the 2nd amendment verbatim but can't tell you what's in the rest.

  1101. I call these people cut-and-paste Christians. They cut out the pieces of the Bible they can use to justify their hatred, quote them out of context, and furthermore, cut out the parts of the Bible they don't like, you know, like love thy neighbor, give to the poor and needy, and turn the other cheek. Is it any wonder they're totally willing to buy a desecrated Bible sold by a blasphemer?

His chances are less than in 2016, he doesn't have nearly as much of the middle as he did in 2016, but he still has MAGA support and there are enough people in the right places to try and rig things in his favor so that, line 2016, he can lose the popular vote and still win the electoral college. Never say he can't win, because that's how he won the first time. Saying he could and it would be devastating is how he was defeated in 2020.

  1105. I grew up in Oklahoma in the 80s and 90s. My school's sex education was segregated into boys and girls, but goddamn it, we got a decent and comprehensive sex education. My nieces and nephews did not and will not get the same education here my brother and I did. Thankfully, my brother is a smarter man than the Oklahoma board of education is and is going to teach them himself. Too many people here aren't going to be that lucky.

  1106. Remember a few years back someone drop kicked Arnold Schwarzenegger? Jump and kicked with both feet right in the middle of his back. Happened on camera, and he just looked like, "oh, someone bumped into me!" Later said he didn't realize he was attacked until he saw the video. Giuliana is like that but in reverse. Also reminds me of that woman in some public hearing that got tapped on the back of the head with a folder and pulled a soccer flop to end all soccer flops, falling out of her chair dramatically, squalling like she just got punched.

  1108. The hallmark of a terrible argument is attempting to keep any other information suppressed in order to make your argument make sense. That's what voter suppression is, bolstering a weak argument. When people agree with your position as a politician, they'll vote for you. If they don't they won't. Simple. If you have to suppress the vote to win an election, you really lost.

  1110. It's almost a shame not one representative or senator wasn't even roughed up during Jan 6. If they had done some tangible damage by way of violence against a duly elected senator or representative, they wouldn't be able to duck this so easily. Their own supporters would have to deal with reality, and that is, Donald Trump and his ilk committed a treasonous insurrection against our government and need to be punished by the most severe penalty available.

  1112. The majority of fertilized eggs do not develop all the way to infancy. Most of them do not implant and are washed out of a woman's body during menstruation. A fertilized egg isn't a person. At the absolute best, it's a potential person. Until the fetus had developed far enough that it can breathe on its own, it's not a person.

  1113. Always beware when a politician appears in front of a camera with props or costumes. Be it working man's clothes, standing with their families, in front of a business, holding or surrounded by guns. It's theater. What do you see in theaters? Fantasies and fairy tales. They're outright telling you they're selling you a bill of goods.

If he were a straight Republican in the same position doing the same exact things, they'd be doing nothing but singing his praises. This isn't about competence, ability, or doing the job, it's about ideology and culture war nonsense.

  1118. "You're saying Hunter Biden took photos of his genitals and someone else posted them online? Well, how can I vote for Joe Biden for president now?" If you look at that previous statement and ask, "how does this track?" You're not alone. Only a MAGA idiot who already wasn't voting for Joe Biden would come to such a conclusion.

  1121. The crime aspect on both sides is the same, smuggling a product that's illegal in the other country, but the product being smuggled into Mexico is legally manufactured and sold in the U.S. The drugs being smuggled into the U.S. are also illegal in Mexico. They just don't have the manpower and\or will to stop a better armed and manned drug cartel. I do agree we shouldn't invade a sovereign nation to stop a group that's in business almost entirely to feed a drug habit of our own people. You want this to stop, make the illegal drugs legal. The cartels won't have a reason to fight so hard.

  1123. Republicans have spent more than a generation constructing a fantasy world to live in. They can't answer direct questions like this because doing so will cause that fantasy world to collapse like a bubble at the point of a needle. This is a great strategy for exposing the depths of the delusion. Show them as being incapable of living in reality and most people will abandon them. The ones who won't will fall with them or be dragged into the light of reality.

  1126. I'm going to sound like an ass for saying this, but I think this is a good idea. Yeah, you MAGA cultists out there, commit acts of violence on behalf of Kari Lake. You'll be arrested and put in prison, plus the violence you do in real life will do violence to your movement, maybe finally kill it. So, go ahead, aim that gun at your foot, cock the hammer, and squeeze the trigger. Your screams of pain and cries for sympathy will fall upon deaf ears.

  1127. No law is going to stop this. This isn't a legal issue, it's a cultural issue. The Republicans ARE to blame for this, but toxifying our society, making violence part of their rhetoric, deifying guns as problem solvers instead of tools for sport and hunting. Guns aren't there to kill people except in VERY rare circumstances. We need them to start saying that, but they won't because fear drives up turnout for Republicans and so they sow fear, hate, and toxicity.

They DON'T CARE about his traitorous behavior. They don't care about him stealing from the government. They don't care he made this nation a laughingstock. They only care about making Democrats look bad so they can hold onto power.
