Retired academic, baptist liberal that cares for the rights of those of faith and no faith, believing the separation of state and religion is for enabling the best expressions of both - its absence facilitating injustice and suffering.
Amen.

My, how we have politically devolved that the questioned is even asked. The answer to the question would be assumed in either party not so long ago: Bring 'em all to justice, my party first.

How long do you suppose it will take, Mr. Speaker?

Probably a minimum of twenty years. But could be more.

And if they don't, what are you going to do? Given 'em a side-eye? Pretty sure that will turn the tide.

As it turns out one can make an argument that the Ds did not cave, rather they dug a hole and fell in, instead. Not that it makes any difference, however.

It's clear to me that others do, Senator.

Good news, Mr. Trump. No need to give everything away or even a good portion of such. Just enough to feed folks. Think of it like throwing a party at Mara-a-Lago.

If the ugly bill prevails, odds are that a good number of those with Jesus will suffer or die. Joni, perhaps give thought to the divine working through social processes?

Her job is quite easy. She does not need a record of being correct, only one of fomenting outrage.

Are atheists paying Johnson to recruit for them?

I don't mean to be unkind but at the risk of being so - thus apology in advance - I suggest that Noem's response seemingly reveals a cognitive disconnect from reality.

Miller's anger is world class; unfortunately it is channeled quite poorly and thus has no redemptive quality.

Hmmmm, from where I live wearing white after Labor Day would create a credibility issue. Imagine that, wearing white and going on a snipe hunt, too.

I, too, find her behavior disturbing and no joking matter.

With respect for the office of AG, the sitting AG dishonored it. Legitimate questions deserve serious responses. The combativeness did not facilitate perceptions of strength, rather on display was smallness and unprofessionalism. I urge her to return to what first attracted her to the law.

But let it also be noted that refusal to make furloughed employees whole is a decision by GOP.
