Rachel Campos-Duffy is a former reality star … and some other things. Her husband, Sean, is a former GOP congressman from Hayward, Wisconsin, which is way, way up north. I’ve been to northern Wisconsin. I know northern Wisconsin pretty well. And I can tell you with some confidence that most northern Wisconsin...
So locking kids in cages, praising “very fine people on both sides,” shivving democracy, criminally mishandling a pandemic, and lying nonstop were not enough to make Trumpies permanent pariahs. But it looks like inciting a murderous mob may have finally done the trick. Go figure. Now that the ex-prez with...
This was amazing. On Gab, Telegram, 8kun, and other racist, alternative media, QAnon groups were salivating over Inauguration Day. They used popcorn emojis and had watch parties to witness the “storm” happening in real-time. This would be when Trump would unleash the military to come in and arrest all the...
You know what? NO. You don't get to do this. Not this time, Fox News. During the violent insurrection at the Capitol building, everyone was on the same page. Our Capitol hadn’t been invaded since 1814. People couldn’t believe what they were seeing. No one dared empathize with the malevolent traitors...
To be fair, no one can scrub away the Trump stink. No one. Including me. It’s like a raccoon has been living in your car for the past four years. That car is fucked. Let’s just see if we can get it started, stick our heads out the window as...
My favorite clueless conservative take on the (non)fraudulent 2020 presidential election is that there’s no way Joe Biden could have gotten as many votes as he did because he’s an old senile guy who didn’t even campaign whereas Donald Trump has a perfectly normal, non-diseased brain and is beloved across the nation...
My local chapter of Indivisible shared Matt’s post. I have no idea who Matt is, but his post has gone viral. I know we have another 2 months of 45’s divisiveness, his cruelty and we will be subjected to more horror and heartache before this monster finally exits in January....
I’ve argued with many a conservative over the years. No matter what the argument, be it violence against women, kids in cages, killing old people to save the economy, etc., the right-wing extremists will always try to bring up abortion. They do this for two reasons: they can’t possibly justify their...
Apparently, with four days left, time has run out for the 2016-style October Surprise. Only a major terror attack(s) could make a shift in what looks to be a trending Biden victory. There’s plenty of spookery in how Giuliani and Bannon developed the pre-impeachment attempts to sway the 2020 election. Lots...
We all pretty much know who Amy Coney Barrett is. I see such super-Catholics on my social media feeds pretty regularly because, well, I went to Catholic grade school and high school, and a lot of my old classmates either haven’t figured out that I’m a filthy secular humanist or,...
Trump still has it and is contagious. He did his contagion parade outside the hospital to wave to supporters because he was “bored” but wanted to expose his Secret Service detail to COVID-19. x Instead they’ll send him to the White House tomorrow where he has control of the most...
The Houston Chronicle highlights how the Supreme Court vacancy is reigniting the health care debate in the U.S. Senate race between incumbent U.S. Senator John Cornyn (R. TX) and veteran MJ Hegar (D. TX): The Supreme Court vacancy stands to alter the Senate race more than just about any other...
Received this e-mail today from former presidential candidate, Rep. Beto O’Rourke (D. TX), inn support of Sima Ladjevardian’s (D. TX-02) campaign: Sima Ladjevardian (D. TX-02) Tonight, Dan Crenshaw will be speaking at the Republican National Convention. It’s only fitting that in a party that has dropped any pretense at a...
This title is not meant to take away from Black Lives Matter. In fact, it is meant to do just the opposite. John Lewis was a man who knew Voting rights and the power of the vote. John Lewis is no longer with us but the spirit of his convictions...
I was in Atlanta, Georgia, three years ago for Netroots Nation. (Totally bummed we had to cancel in Denver this year.) It was during this time that a young activist was brutally murdered at the white supremacist “Unite the Right” rally in Charlottesville, Virginia to protest the removal of a...

She is also the first major candidate to have gone to a historically black college and university (HBCU). This daughter of immigrants has been a...

Received this e-mail today from Civil Rights Leader, Rep. John Lewis (D.

Trump’s Inaugural Speech: REMARKS OF PRESIDENT DONALD J. TRUMP – AS PREPARED FOR DELIVERY INAUGURAL ADDRESS FRIDAY, JANUARY 20, 2017 WASHINGTON, D.C. As Prepared for Delivery – Chief Justice Roberts, President Carter, President Clinton, President Bush, President Obama, fellow Americans, and people of the world: thank you. We, the citizens...
I’ve always suspected Donald Trump would be far more upset if someone screwed up his McDonald’s lunch order than if, say, millions of promised (and necessary) coronavirus tests failed to materialize by a self-imposed deadline. After all, Trump can lie about the tests, but he can’t pretend he has an invisible...
Yes, he foisted Sarah Palin on our national politics, which was a little like bringing an uncooked moose to a dinner party instead of a nice insouciant, oaky cabernet. But Steve Schmidt, the veteran Republican campaign strategist who guided John McCain’s 2008 presidential run, now speaks the truth. And he’s not pulling...
The Nation endorses Sanders, if only because of the coalescing of so-called moderates around Joe Biden. #BlueNoMatterWho not because Ivanka Trump has finally registered as a Republican, but if only because Sanders broke up Public Enemy. GOTV if only because some MSM (still) believe that “liberals pinned their hopes on...
The Atlantic article by Sarada Peri assumes an event will occur that is endemic. Trump has destabilized facts and their media frames. If he’s going to cheat what was he doing before this moment, starting with when he lied about the wealth inherited from his father. Democratic primary voters care deeply...

Oath of offices for republicans, disregarded by a sham Senate impeachment trial, apathy and unconcern and downright distraction from half of the voting public and denial plus addiction is what 2020 looks like so far. We have loyal followers of the so called King. It is no longer All the president’s men...
Sigh. x It was exactly three years ago today, January 20, 2017, that I was sworn into office. So appropriate that today is also MLK jr DAY. African-American Unemployment is the LOWEST in the history of our Country, by far. Also, best Poverty, Youth, and Employment numbers, ever. Great! —...
The NewYorker’s Susan Glasser finds a single word to describe the Trump era that really isn’t about underpants gnomes, even if it applies to most Trumpian policies, such as they are. There must be one of those long German words for all that soul-sickening worry, right? Some tortured mouthful of...
Please, tell me more about the phony war on Christmas, and how traumatizing it is for you to see black Santas, Holiday Trees, or someone trying to wish you good tidings without the word “Merry.” While you are enjoying your first-world privilege outrage, there is a young child in a cramped cage,...

Ever since he showed up on the national stage, Trump has been called — with good reason — a narcissist, a megalomaniac, a disordered personality. But he is also a sadist, and he leads a sadistic base. This point has been raised before on this blog — Trump is Sadistic...
This is an observation and not CT. There is something so very wrong in this country that just does not make sense to those who still have some sense left. I have many questions. Why are people who appeared to be fair minded, respectful and even so called people of...
Newsweek Speaking with the Washington Examiner Friday, White said Trump initiated plans to build a grandiose “glass cathedral” in 2006, even hiring on an architect to pursue the project. White ultimately said the timing wasn’t right on her end and the project fell through, but she recalled her and Trump’s...
OK. White guy here stepping into a racial issue: police shootings of unarmed black men. According to Politico, Julian Castro has “blindsided” Pete Buttigieg over accepting a donation from an infamous character in Chicago, a man by the name of Steve Patton. For those of you who don’t know Steve...
I saw where Trump supporters and fundraising tools are wearing Mulvaney’s confession on their chest proud as can be.. “ Get over it”. They need to wake up and smell the coffee. The Con boy is going to be impeached and probably charged after out of office. He Should be...
From now on, anyone going on a rant about how they are pro-Trump because they are “Christian” and “pro-life” are getting sent these photos by me—directly and with no warning. Why? Because they are responsible for supporting this carnage. I decided not to show these four photos directly in the...
Like Jerry Falwell Jr and his pool boy, everybody’s got stakes in the Rapture. Speaking in tongues, handling snakes, and laying on hands is not going to save Trump. #TurkeyIsNotOurFriend x Pat Robertson is “appalled” by Trump's decision to withdraw U.S. troops from northern Syria: “The President of the United States is...
At some point we have to start checking their basements for pods, right? Can they really be this empty and soulless? Republicans who were once on the right side of history have sworn fealty — in droves — over the past four years to the least admirable man on the...
I never cared for Congresswoman Tulsi Gabbard. I didn’t like her buddying up to Bashar-al-Assad. And her early work against the LGBTQ community doesn’t give the warm fuzzies either. But she has come out against impeachment of Trump because it would cause further division in the U.S. “I don’t [support...
