John Bolton once said, “Trump is too stupid to be a dictator.” He wasn’t wrong about his intellect; he underestimated the influence of a bully’s hateful rhetoric & its power to dumbfound the American electorate into a constant state of confusion, eventually surrendering itself to willful ignorance.

„Quiet, Piggy!“ Just think about that for a minute, and what it means to live in a time when a President can assault a woman in public like that without any consequences.
It‘s quite a testimony to the age of regression we live in.

He was accosting & molesting women decades ago without consequence - E. Jean won quite a tidy some for an abuse from more than 20 yrs ago. We’ve also known about his close affiliation with Epstein & others of his ilk for decades. 30% of the citizenry actually voted for him for precisely this reason.

Elizabeth Warren on Colbert's show: "We don't think one corporation or one man named David Ellison should be able to buy up all the shows and buy up all the sports and buy up all the news and decide who watches what and I'm gonna stay in that fight."

New York will always be a city of immigrants. When we protect the communities who keep this city running and uphold our sanctuary laws, we create a future that’s safer for every New Yorker.

Has anyone else noticed that the plot lines for every piece of fiction related to political corruption are suddenly obsolete?

- Cronyism & corruption in the WH & the Justice Department was the plot of The Pelican Brief.

- Following unlawful & unconstitutional orders summarizes A Few Good Men. 1/
When you follow illegal & unconstitutional orders, you are not a patriot, you are instead rewarded with a court martial & prison time, as does your commanding officer; the only one immune is the Commander in Chief, thanks to a corrupt SCOTUS reinventing the Constitution on behalf of P25 half-whits.

There is not enough research studies to prove thumb-sucking doesn’t cause diaper rash, so I guess we can assume …geez 🤪😜😝

I look forward to the day when we get back to a place where diplomacy is professional, cordial, productive and, well, diplomatic!

Medicare for All would save $450B a year.

Every dollar spent on food stamps generates $1.50-$1.80 in economic activity.

Each dollar going to low-wage workers adds $1.20 to the economy overall.

It’s not about what this country can or can’t afford.

It’s about priorities.

HAYES: “2 female reporters asking obviously totally newsworthy Q’s — one gets called ‘PIGGY’ the other gets called ‘INSUBORDINATE’ because she didn’t bow and scrape to the Saudi King.”

If TX is ruled illegal and CA is okay, I will absolutely LOSE IT. Would be one of the funniest things to happen in a while.

In soccer, this would be an own goal.

Even funnier: if the gerrymander goes through and the Democrats win most of the new districts anyway b/c ICE lost the hispanic vote.
