Jen Psaki is the worst press secretary in the last 20+ years

I cannot even imagine how convoluted a thought process someone would need, after the unparalleled incompetence and dishonesty of her predecessors over the last four years, to watch this press secretary and make the decision that she was the worst one they'd ever seen. I hadn't even seen...

Rush Limbaugh dead

Can't feel bad about the death of someone who worked so hard to cause pain. Whether he did it out of ignorance or greed, the world is still a little bit better off without him.

Human Reproduction: Should We Continue or Reverse? (As It Relates to Global Warming) w/ Poll

Part of the reason I stayed at two kids was because the current population level growth isn't sustainable. A gradual decline would make the most sense rather than abrupt changes, although that's obviously easier said than done. Hopefully the population growth in third world countries naturally...

Trump admin staff jumps the vaccine line

If this was a few months ago I could understand it. Sure, the Republican administration downplayed all this and generally just made the crisis worse. But they are still in charge and it makes sense to keep the command structure safe even if they are corrupt and incompetent. But now? They'll be...

Anne Frank memorial in Idaho, defaced with swastika stickers

Imagine walking into a thread about someone defacing a memorial for a 15 year old girl who died of typhus in a concentration camp and thinking, "I should take this opportunity to complain about people knocking down statues of 19th century slave owners". It's obviously not the method of...

2nd Stimulus Bipartisan Bill Introduced

I knew he'd come back in here and somehow blame the Democrats. At least four major concessions made from the original bill that was passed by the Democrat led House in May. The Republicans haven't made a single one. Yet somehow Pelosi, not McConnell, is to blame. Seven months of Republican...

2nd Stimulus Bipartisan Bill Introduced

So it looks like Democrats have compromised for the fourth (fifth?) time on a stimulus package. But the Republican majority is still blocking it, even though the proposed bill is now even smaller than what they suggested initially. So we've gone from: Democrats: We want $3.6T VS Republicans...

Presidential Debate #1

Jesus, this is a train wreck for Trump. He's somehow even more pathetic than I expected.

RBG dead

It's because the Republicans now have a policy of only allowing Republican presidents to appoint judges. I wouldn't have an issue with Trump appointing a replacement, despite how terrible his decisions usually are, if it wasn't for the fact that the Republicans have openly corrupted the process...

RBG dead

Fair play to her for working and fighting as hard as she did for as long as she did. Unfortunately this just means this administration is going to have an even bigger detrimental impact on the judiciary. It's incredible just how much influence the combination of good luck and unethical behavior...

2nd Stimulus Bipartisan Bill Introduced

This is at least the third time I've come across you making false statements about the stimulus package negotiations. It's been pointed out multiple times that the Democrats repeatedly offered to compromise to a greater extent than the Republicans did, despite the fact that their plan had more...

Cohen: Trump hired a 'Faux-bama' that he could video belittling and firing

When almost every ridiculous story about Trump's dishonesty, corruption, incompetence and lack of class has turned out to be true, then yes, we are likely to believe a new story. Especially when it comes from a source close to him and includes photographic and video evidence. I mean there's no...

Here is how controlling the post office can steal the election

You made this statement last time and multiple people pointed out that you were wrong, with evidence, but here you are again spouting the same thing. Last time I could give you the benefit of the doubt and assume that you just hadn't received all the information, this time you are clearly lying...

It is now official: Russia meddled.

Did he ever actually admit it was the Republicans? I gave him some numbers that were public information and disproved his claim plus I asked him for a source on his but never got a response.

Trump signs stimulus executive actions: 1) +$400 for unemployment but States pick up 25%. 2) Suspend Medicare/Social Security withholding. 3)...

Any source on that? The House/Democrat proposal was $3.4T. Republicans suggested $1T, but they can't actually agree with each other on that so it's not really a real plan as even their own party won't support it. The Democrats have since negotiated down to $2.4T and Schumer suggested a proposal...
