My Christmas gift to you: you may retire the word "whomever." It is almost always the wrong word grammatically, and "whoever" is almost always the right one.

The framers of the constitution would be appalled by the 14th amendment, but would understand its purpose. It is the Supreme Court's post-Heller rewriting of the second amendment and the predictable bloodshed with modern weapons that would shock them.

This may be Trump's perfect social media post. A true work of art. He confirms:
✅He personally directs criminal investigations.
✅He is targeting opponents.
✅Epstein "records" exist and he knows the contents.
Bonus points for connecting it to investigation of his fondness for Putin.👀

It would explain a lot of the last 10 years if P#tin knew what was in the Epstein files.

You all do realize the Epstein files could show Trump as the #1 pedophile and MAGA cult would not blink.

On July 2, 1776, a group of about 60 mostly wealthy white Englishmen made a decision, almost unbelievable to themselves, to declare independence from Great Britain. Two days later, on July 4, 1776, they adopted a statement explaining why. We are still trying to live up to what they said.

Your reminder that there is nothing "moderate" about the view that women cannot be leaders and that being gay is "fundamentally disordered."

Unidentified men grabbing someone off the street and putting her in a car because she wrote an op-Ed. This as flatly authoritarian as anything we’ve seen in this country in a very long time.
Video of the international student at Tufts being arrested by "federal authorities" in Massachusetts has been released and it's terrifying.
They're not even uniformed officers. Just secret police thugs in hoodies and masks.
