Trump wasted no time claiming a ‘mandate’ from voters after last week's election, but the actual results tell a different story. The Big Picture dives into why this election was closer than Trump would like to admit and how Democrats can turn his overreach to their advantage.

UPDATE: The Onion just bought Alex Jones' Infowars after he was forced to sell it due to a defamation suit from Sandy Hook parents.
Last month Rudy Giuliani had to give his luxury apartment & all his valuables to poll workers he defamed.
Can defamation law end right-wing lies?

Earnest post, but: a thing I like here is it’s okay to have moments of happiness in public without being broadly scolded, and I believe that sustaining this kind of humanity will be very important as we resist fascism.
We have to sustain each other. Making joy isn’t denial, it’s how we will survive

“A truly great nation does not elect Trump to be its president, and it certainly doesn’t elect him again after experiencing his first four years in office. A truly great nation does not allow itself to be stampeded by shadows on the wall, rustling in the bushes, or bullshit on TV.” — Charlie Pierce
