Remember the time Obama personally caught a fainting woman during his speech — rather than just blankly staring like a sociopath?

Character isn't something you tell people about.

It's something you live.

I watched a house full of dynamite today and served to increase my fear of having a clown show in charge of our security.

Pritzker: "It's unconscionable. This has never happened before. They're calling out troops onto the streets of a state that doesn't want them and they're not even telling us where they're gonna go, what they're gonna do. This hasn't happened I don't think since the Civil War."

“Resistance” comedy had struggled to find its mojo in President Trump’s second term.

Then came Stephen Colbert’s show cancellation, the “South Park” satire and the uproar over Jimmy Kimmel being yanked off air.
Has Trump’s government made political comedy feel important again?

News today that ICE shot a woman is chilling. The videos online show that there are some abusive, masked thugs masquerading as law enforcement.

Nobody deserves this. The courts need to step in.

Trump spent today’s presser lying, exaggerating and generally putting on his apprentice show for his cult

Can anyone explain to me how abandoning our alliances, trade agreements., and destroying the commitments made to our own people is good for the United State

We’ve elected an angry and ignorant child with no sense of morality or curiosity to lead a nation with the same issues

The new president has no concern for global warming despite recent climate related disasters. Only a fool would put grifting from fossil fuel industry over the lives of his supporters. He’s a dangerously ignorant fool and a greedy old grifter
