The Supreme Court, Presidency, Senate and two party system are all quite anti-democratic institutions as presently constructed.
Our institutions are not only incapable of preventing tyranny—they’re currently enabling it.
When democracy returns, we need to reform our political system.

If I were to go to trial for anything, I wouldn't want politics in the courtroom and I'd want NO cameras in the courtroom. I'm also someone who needs to not wear GPS monitors for obvious reasons.

Matt Van Epps won the TN-07 special election, sure.
But Republicans dropping from +22 to +9 in a Trump district, with turnout near midterm levels, is the kind of “victory” that keeps RNC operatives awake at night.

The 14th Amendment is as clearly and unambiguously written as any law on the books. Politically it was intended to suppress former Confederates and prevent the conditions that led to the Civil War. To attack it is to give comfort to their heirs and cut into the seams of our society.

I'm really pleased that the accusations against Farage are quite rightly not going away. He appears very, very rattled and deservedly so.
This is very long overdue.

Tr*mp started his career in the public eye by pretending to fire people from fake jobs. Now he’s worked his way up to being in charge of an administration that has murdered* at least 86 people. What do you think is next?

In fairness, AutoZone employees are great actors. They’ve always been kind and pretended I’m not a complete doofus when I ask very basic questions about cars.
A "FIFA Peace Prize" is tantamount to getting an "AutoZone Best Actor in a Dramatic Play" award.
And "I want to really save lives" is rich coming from the homicidal slob who is murdering people on fishing boats in the Caribbean.
