Four in 10 women under the age of 45 say they'd like to permanently leave the U.S. Probably not coincidentally, they have also disproportionately lost trust in American institutions, including in the Democratic Party.

Republicans' higher ed policy is to make educators' lives worse, defund their research, censor their lessons, deport their tuition-paying foreign students, saddle their domestic students with debt, and terrorize the cities where their alumni pursue their careers.

In summary, the average child sexual predator’s profile is: married, male, white, heterosexual, religious, surrounded by friends and family, and a parent.
If you care about protecting children from abuse, it is necessary that you understand who the actual child sexual predators are.

Child molesters are as equally married, educated, employed, and religious as any other Americans.

There is a concerted effort to disparage the progressive wing of the Dem party while elevating “centrists”. See recent NYT fluff piece on Mayor John Whitmire. The same donors who are pressing for “moderation” are the same assholes who produced Whitmire, Cuomo and the 8 members of the Cavers Caucus.

Murphy: There’s no way to defend this
I got back to my office after the vote last night and recorded this. There's no way to sugarcoat what happened. And my fear is that Trump gets stronger, not weaker, because of this acquiescence. I'm angry - like you. But I choose to keep fighting.

American politics makes a lot more sense when you realize that the GOP is afraid of pissing off the GOP base, and the Dems are afraid of pissing off the GOP base, but neither party is afraid of pissing off the Dem base.
