As disgusted as I am by the actions of the Saudi Crown Prince, I’m exponentially more disgusted by the President of the United States excusing and defending them.

Poor little “z” key, getting so much unaccustomed use...

Remember: The concentration of wealth in the hands of a few isn't just bad for our economy. It's corrosive to our democracy.
When the wealthy and well-connected control our political system, regular people don't have a voice.
The result? The demagoguery and corruption we're seeing now.

Being an "anti-anti-fascist" is not a thing.
That just means you're "pro-fascist".
(And, to save time and be clearer in your communications, you can just say that you're "a fascist".)

While I don't think the "Bubba" referred to in the email is William Jefferson, I do believe people speculating about it being him will drive Velveeta Voldemort crazy, and that brings me unspeakable amounts of joy.

Megyn Kelly being more concerned with the psychological damage that might result from kids seeing a Black Santa Claus than a middle-aged man forcing himself on an underage girl sums up the ethical and moral bankruptcy of MAGA.

What you want from a functional, thriving superpower is every reporter in the country spending all day combing through a cache of documents that all say, more or less, “hi [rich ruling class person], it was good seeing you last week for all the child sex crimes!”

To the side-point about the emails’ horrendous writing, showing that the “elites” communication/typing skills are, in general, somewhat lacking:

All the events that allowed Trump to be president (twice!) have really unveiled the level to which the public is conditioned by the narrative tropes the media uses how to think about controversy.
Mainly, that crime is only nefarious when hidden and consequences are only for people who feel shame
