I don’t know how we break the cycle where people go “hm, life is difficult in many ways, I want change” and vote for whoever’s not currently in charge. It’s a lot easier to break stuff than to build anything, so Republicans being in charge half the time means a lot more gets broken than built.

"once the Dems have the House and Senate in Congress they can..." reads like "as soon as we figure out Cold Fusion we'll be able to..."

When ICE Fishing in Portland, locals only use bait grade donuts.

I think the most telling part of this entire story is how they specifically separated her from her lawyer before grabbing her. That speaks volumes.

Sure are a lot of books on tyranny and authoritarianism getting re released with new prefaces and forwards Wonder what that’s about 🙃

We’ve all joked that the Cubs winning the World Series in 2016 opened a vortex to Trump, but have we considered that the Astros missing the playoffs for the first time since 2016 might close it? Much to consider.
