My most woke opinion, probably: society needs to decide on a wealth cap, and income tax becomes 120% after that amount. Confiscate all hoarded wealth beyond that amount. And all those little tax loopholes need to be sealed up tight.

Save the billionaires’ souls by making them not-billionaires.
"my least woke opinion is---"

That's enough. We've had enough people indulging in the "thrill of a little conservatism", as a treat. Of considering reactionary thought to be a salacious and taboo in a world descending into reactionary mania.

Give me your MOST woke opinions. We're bringing it back.

If you have tenure at Texas A&M and aren't maliciously emailing the president a dozen times every day to ask if you can say this or you can say that, then what's the point in having tenure?

If only Fox and “Christian” radio would share clips like this…
AOC: How can we, as members of congress, Republican or Democrat, vote to enrich ourselves by stealing from the American people? That is what this legislation does. In fact, Senator Graham said he was going to seek well over $1 million from the American people, from this.

"The dog that didn't bark" is a phrase from a Sherlock Holmes story that means the absence of evidence can be a clue to solving a mystery. In the original story, the dog's silence when a horse was stolen indicated that the thief was someone the dog knew, not a stranger.

Only Donald Trump could assert, in all seriousness, that the most important factor in a superpower's military might is ... branding.
Trump: "We have officially renamed the Dept of Defense back to the original name, Dept of War. And remember we won World War 1, we won World War 2, we won everything in between. We won everything that came before. And then we brilliantly decided to change the name. We became politically correct"

“Anyone who helps me try to steal an election gets a pardon” is perhaps the most corrupt thing to happen in American history.

That “conservatives” have simply accepted this as the price of admission is the greatest moral and intellectual humiliation.
NEW: Donald Trump has pardoned a long list of allies in his bid to subvert the 2020 election including:

-Rudy Giuliani
-John Eastman
-Mark Meadows
-Sidney Powell
-Ken Chesebro
-Christina Bobb

It’s such a bad idea, when one of his crimes was calling forth an insurrection, that he’s actually forbidden from holding the office by a constitutional provision, which a unanimous Supreme Court invented a way to turn off.
To repeat: Maybe electing a life-long criminal to an office where he can pardon other criminals wasn't such a good idea.

He is a computer safety researcher.

Two things:

1) Huntsville is a Federal town. TVA, Redstone Arsenal and NASA. Redstone alone is 50+% of the N. AL GDP.

2) Dale Strong used to be the County Commission Chairman. Currently, that's $55k a year.

So Trump is starving kids in order to deny families health care.

They weren't terrorists. They weren't cartel members. They had no fentanyl. And they weren't coming here.

They were transporting cocaine. To Trinidad.

Most importantly, they were human beings.

And they were murdered.

DHS and the White House pushed out sadistic videos celebrating this. The United States kidnapped people and dumped them in a foreign torture prison without any sort of process, and many of whom likely committed no serious crime. People in government need to be prosecuted for this.
