Stanford – The Politicus

Cop Killing, Rape and Theft

One can only live in fear if one listens to Republicans and watches their campaign ads. Republicans consistently decouple gun control from crime. Criminality is a real problem, but Willie Horton is not waiting around every corner. I have lived in Philadelphia for over 16 years and have not been...

GQP claims Dems coming for your hamberders because Climate Crisis

More GQP spotted owl-isms, riffing on culture war again because Moscow Mitch claimed last year that the Democrats’ nanny-state will regulate 'how many hamburgers you can eat'.

Harry Reid, “Democrats running for president need a plan for the Supreme Court”

Former U.S. Senate Majority & Minority Leader, Harry Reid (D. NV), has been coming out of retirement and his presence in the upcoming 2020 Democratic Primary can certainly be felt. While out of office since 2017 and being diagnosed with pancreatic cancer, the former Nevada Senator has made it his...

Who knew Tucker Carlson is having a “complete mental break”

Admitting you have a problem is probably the first step, but Tucker Carlson’s race-baiting served an audience niche, however problematic. What Carlson reveals to Elaina Plott in an Atlantic story is a proto-fascism not unique to the 21st Century. She captures Carlson’s Trumpian sociopathology, which might demand that you go to the...

Melania's statement on bullying of Greta is weird, stupid, hypocritical … like her husband

This is shameless. Somehow, the president of the United States jealously attacking a 16-year-old girl by insisting (with a signature projection-y flair) that she needs anger management classes is not as bad as simply mentioning that the pr*sident has a kid, and his name is Barron. But the hypocrisy was too...

Kentucky Democratic Primary for U.S. Senate: What Are Progressives To Do?

Those outside of Kentucky are already betting heavily on Amy McGrath as the Democratic nominee to take on Moscow Mitch in 2020. However, Kentucky progressives are not happy with McGrath, and I one of those people. Before all you centrists jump down my throat and give me shit, I will...

Trumps'climate policies guarantee monster “humid heat waves” — with a lethal heat index of 131 F.

Chances are that when you wake up today you will likely experience a blast furnace if you dare step outside, not only in your neck of the woods but, across massive swaths of the Earth will suffer as well. You will probably hope that the power grid holds up. I...

America 2018: GOP considers if rape is really a deal-breaker; Don Jr. mocks victim

I’m seething a little bit here, because I just listened to Karl Rove on Fox “News” smear the victim. Fox has been constantly reminding people that Brett Kavanuagh’s victim, Dr. Christine Blasey Ford, is a registered Democrat. Breitbart jumped in and dug up some dirt on her: she had the audacity to oppose Trump’s child cages,...

Who among us has not attempted rape in our itinerant youth?

Is this going to become the new line I wonder? Are men going to come out of the woodwork to say that yes, they too dabbled in rape in their younger days? What is this? Why does age when it happened matter? Why does the number of intervening years matter?...

MSNBC Just reported Kavanaugh allegations might be sexual assault: Pieces begin to fall in to place

MSNBC just reported (on Lawrence O’Donnell) that somebody familiar with the Kavanaugh letter said it might contain allegations of sexual assault and it might not. Ninety percent of the time (rough estimate) that means the letter contains allegations of sexual assault. I am beginning to think that the American public...

Why is Feinstein hiding a document that may implicate Kavanaugh in a sexual misconduct scandal?

Ryan Grim of The Intercept recently wrote this report on the fact U.S. Sen. Dianne Feinstein (D-CA) is refusing to release a letter, for whatever reason, that may implicate Brett Kavanaugh, Donald Trump’s appointee to the U.S. Supreme Court seat that was vacated by Anthony Kennedy, in a sexual misconduct...

Clearing away the bullshit: Study finds that Obamacare had no effect on the labor market

The Wall Street Journal, reporting on a study by Stanford University, debunks a favorite Republican talking point and reports that “Fears Obamacare Would Be A Job Killer Were Wrong.” As Michael Derby at the WSJ explains: Projections that the Obama administration’s signature health-care legislation would drive workers out of the labor...

The need for closure, whether varied situationally or measured dispositionally, has been associated with tendencies to engage in social stereotyping … to resist persuasive influence...
