Mockler: It's honestly humiliating that other countries are treating our president like a child, like a baby. It's like if I created a peace prize and I gave it to myself. I'm like, I'm just going to keep this medal on all night. Our president is an actual child

When you can’t afford health insurance just remember that Sen. Kaine is sleeping well
Tim Kaine on backlash he's getting: "I got the first good night's sleep last night that I've gotten since Oct 1, b/c I wasn't worried about being able to look Capitol Police in the eye when I walked in, or what a furloughed fed worker would say to me at church, or what somebody would say about SNAP"

Gutted by the Dems caving after the blue-wave wins of last week? Sick & tired of us snatching defeat from the jaws of victory? I hear you! Might I suggest you calm yourself, relax, take a deep, cleansing breath... then see if this photo of 2 pandas cuddling is of any help.

Okay, I am losing it, nothing but mad as hell. Why hasn’t someone filed an Injunction to Stop the demolition and destruction of the White House East Wing. How did this even start. Don’t the repubs give a shit at all about the People’s House being destroyed? Building this obscene ballroom

Love hearing an NPR reporter repeat Vought's line about "unconstitutional DEI principles" with nary a query about what the fuck that actually means. At some point we need journalists to make this administration explain some of these batshit utterances.

In a more perfect world, Carr would resign for violating his oath to defend the Constitution. Barring that, he must be hauled before Congress & made accountable.

Kavanaugh's statements make the problem worse, not better. If the reason SCOTUS is using cryptic shadow docket orders is because "five" of them can't "reach a consensus or a compromise on a particular issue that might be difficult," then that order should not be precedential —there's no majority.

The issue with Texas isn’t gerrymandering. Both parties gerrymander where they can. They always have. But they’ve always waited to do it at the end of each decade, with each census. The issue with Texas is they are gerrymandering MID-DECADE. Which would set a terrible precedent.
