I'd really like to see leadership calling for impeachment and removal, regardless of whether they have the votes to get it done. Same way we called for marriage equality before we had the votes. A leader's job is to lead. If a genocidal threat isn't impeachable, then nothing is.

Yes, we will all die one day -- and perhaps sooner than anybody expected because *waves hands all around* -- but watching Duke bottle a double-digit lead on the national (nay, international) stage makes it all fucking worthwhile

CBS turned their news operation into propaganda, kicked Colbert off the air for making too much trouble, and all that just to have Charles Barkley go on the air on one of their most-watched telecasts of the year and say this lmao
