The split in America is less about politics than—it is—politics becoming our lives. It is more about party alliances and tribal wars.

in AZ, Big Liar still tries to overthrow government with more lies to support his unhingery

Even in Arizona, the Fraudit continues, now interrupted by high school graduations. “We can’t indulge these insane lies any longer. As a party. As a state. As a country” This is as readily falsifiable as 2+2=5. If we don’t call this out… Wow. The Republican who took over Maricopa County...

$24 million from dark money group writing much of the GOP voter suppression legislation

Like ALEC writing legislation for a lazy GOP, Heritage Action is providing the same “song sheets” for state legislatures trying to suppress voting rights. Heritage Action says it wrote “8 key provisions” in Georgia voter suppression law, “19 provisions” in Texas House bill & “3 provisions” of Iowa law. Dark...

Biden: Retaliation against the pipeline hackers not ruled out.

RWNJs spent more time today demonizing COVID data whistleblower Rebekah Jones rather than focusing on the various data violations and network attacks happening regionally, causing panics over fuel supplies.

What Irony: a Cheney being punished for the truth

The Republican members of the House of Representatives convened their star chamber this morning and ousted the most conservative member of their caucus.

Orange man is no match for Dick and Liz. He is waaay out of his league in this matchup.

Look, this is popcorn time. Orange man thinks he is so big and bad with a mouth that runs 90 miles a minute and filled with conspiracy and lies. Personally, I was always a bit leary of a quiet, soft spoken person. You never know what they are thinking and...
