Remixing and remastering my 20th century glories for 21st century consumption.
Sounds like a draft of a verse from “I Am the Walrus.” They are the eggmen…
it's utterly wild how the Heritage Foundation president talks about other people

if you found a guy talking like this outside, you'd probably call the cops

This is the most sobering post of the day. Aaron is absolutely right.

This is the most brazenly corrupt, authoritarian regime the U.S. has probably ever seen.

It is a test we cannot fail to rise to. Trump must be (legally) removed from office. Congress must act.
There is no world in which it is normal for the president to publicly call upon his attorney general to hurry up and prosecute his political foes. It’s like the Watergate tapes but posted on social media. Let’s get a grip on what’s happening here.

Let's be clear: Republicans don't want more 'parents' at home. They want more *women* at home.

If you think this isn't about eradicating women from the public sphere, you haven't been paying attention

"The left went too far" in contemporary U.S. politics is almost always a lie and a very convenient way to rationalize moral failure. For example, "MeToo went too far" replaces "I do not care about sexual violence or its victims and I don't want to have to even feel bad about that"

Even if you accept the premise and decision, which I absolutely do not, it is the simplest thing to phone the visa holder, tell them their visa is revoked and say they have a month to leave the country. Accosting someone on the street like a kidnapping is just a spectacle of terror.
Marco Rubio on Rumeysa Ozturk: "We revoked her visa ... once you've lost your visa, you're no longer legally in the United States ... if you come into the US as a visitor and create a ruckus for us, we don't want it. We don't want it in our country. Go back and do it in your country."
