Rashida Tlaib
Have you noticed when you ask a Republican about Trump’s transgressions, they answer in one of three ways, Democrat Party (sic), Pelosi, or The Squad; they cannot defend him.

President Obama rarely comments on the puerile antics of Donald J. Trump. Let’s hope that changes when election season gets into full swing and he hits the campaign trail on behalf of our nominee. But for the most part, he’s faithfully observed tradition and held his tongue, despite the dopey...
Hmm, this sounds familiar, huh? Just two weeks after telling Ilhan Omar, Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, Ayanna Pressley, and Rashida Tlaib to go back to their “original countries,” Trump is blowing his racist dog-whistles again.

Lindsey Graham appeared on everyone’s favorite intellectual black hole this morning (i.e., Fox & Friends) to regale the three alabaster dopes with his own brand of projection and unhinged racism. (Wait, is it really his own brand? Or is it more like bathtub meth made with a generic version of...
