Where is that strange voice I hear coming from?

So. Much. Winning. 🙄

A lot of Americans are cringing too—with embarrassment for some of our countrymen.

I miss not thinking about lots of things we used to be able to take for granted. Like the POTUS not being an insane criminal.

Ha ha! Before/after:

We absolutely need a purge of right-wing “lie factories” here in the U.S. Propaganda outlets like Fox News have poisoned our political discourse and nearly overthrown our democracy. I don’t see how we can regain a healthy political culture as long as they exist.

Well, damn . . .

The Inside Story of Five Days That Remade the Supreme Court

The chief Justice of the Supreme Court is a political hack. We knew this in 2005 when he was nominated and confirmed. The shadow docket shows how.

Good boy!

So then stop your masturbatory yammering and put forth a candidate of your own who can win a general election. Or is it easier to just bitch about how much you hate Democrats?

I’m just a nobody with no training in international relations and even I knew since literally decades that the Strait of Hormuz would be the go-to strategic move by Iran if they were attacked by the West. There’s absolutely no excuse for this administration’s incompetence.

The only explanation for the U.S. government lifting sanctions on the russian terrorist state is Trump works for Putin.

Americans may care to know why, but it is undeniable Trump is a traitor.

You almost can’t overestimate the stupidity of MAGA voters and the apathy of non-voters who keep foisting these Republican wrecking crews on this country and the world.

Ukraine by itself is kicking Putin’s ass. There’s no conceivable way that he’d dare to take on any more than the mess he’s already doomed himself with.

But we get the “Gulf of America” out of the deal, so even-steven, I guess, LOL.

“Art of the Deal”, LOL.

Too bad Hillary Clinton wasn’t cool enough for all those Gen X dudes to vote for. Oh well, I guess we’ll have to be stuck with a corrupt Republican SCOTUS for the foreseeable future, just like people tried to warn.

I think the Times simply acts in bad faith. There’s no way they’re not aware of exactly what’s going on, but they refuse to tell the unvarnished truth about it. What they’re doing is at best lying to their readers by omission and obfuscation.

Trump would never disparage Russia the way he disparages NATO. He is a literal traitor, and I can’t believe Americans are just going to let him stay in office and keep betraying all of us, our country, and our allies.

Congrats on “opening” a strait that was open six weeks ago, and all it cost was at least 13 dead service members, thousands of dead Iranian civilians, tens of billions in taxpayer dollars, our loss in global standing, and the Iranian regime’s increase in power. Phenomenal work.

I can be a bit naive sometimes, but I’m starting to wonder about how the Democratic caucus keeps coming up with just enough votes to fail to stop Trump at crucial junctures like this. Do you think Golden’s vote was prearranged in the Dem caucus?

You could say the same thing about the mainstream news media and it would be completely accurate.

Just because you may be a misogynistic idiot doesn’t mean everyone else is. But I can see how you might project like that.

Go fuck yourself, parasite.

I’m still morbidly fascinated by the “Gamergate” episode that seemed to have been the genesis of a certain strain of misogynistic, alt-right, meme-related political agitation. It brought together multiple online themes and fussed it into the ugly, terroristic, neo-fascist ideology we see today.

They’ve despised our government since it crushed their slave-holding secessionist movement in the Civil War and have been working to destroy it ever since. They’re hateful, racist nihilists.

That motherfucker had better be acting as a lone maverick and not be doing the party’s dirty work for them. At some point, the entire Democratic Party needs to deal with members like this or be considered as tainted by allowing them to get away with it.
