The impeachment of Donald Trump was always going to be a messaging war, and on paper it should have been a rout for Republicans. With his Twitter megaphone reaching more than 60 million followers, Trump should have been able to use his uniquely digital White
I’m not a big Donny Deutsch fan or anything. For one thing, in his latest rant, he makes the mistake of suggesting that Trump is actually good for the economy, when he’s anything but. (Do any of these fools understand that job growth has actually
It is a sad anniversary for #SandyHook but is also a reminder that nothing has changed about the spread of RWNJ CTs that conform to propaganda models. What happened in 2016 will likely repeat itself. If you haven’t yet read this Rand report, you should,

Joe Walsh, who we’d known in 2015 as a Tea Party reactionary, evolved ever slightly as he’s trying to run for POTUS in 2020. Never-Trumping is a strange notion. Trump thinks it’s a synonym for anyone against him, when it is more about Republicans or
Six-year-old Juan de León Gutiérrez; 8-year-old Felipe Gómez Alonzo; 6-year-old Jakelin Caal Maquin; two additional children a 10-year-old and a 2-year-old, both from Guatemala, have died in the past two years as a result of the Trump administration’s Border Policy. Add to that this week,

While the WH left open the possibility of participating in other House Judiciary committee hearings, their continued whinging about POTUS* being denied due process continue to ring hollow. Meanwhile the GOP committee membership is expected to continue to clown the proceedings. New attempts to delay the proceedings
Donald Trump praised a dog named Conan today for “his” role in the successful raid on ISIS leader Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi. It could have been a sweet moment remembered fondly by all those who’ve somehow forgotten Trump is a steaming pile of tauntaun carcass who has

So fucking stupid: The White House is sending mixed messages about Louisiana’s economy while President Donald Trump tries to unseat Democratic Gov. John Bel Edwards. Trump trashed Edwards’ economic performance Wednesday at a Monroe rally, as he works to replace the Deep South’s only Democratic
Whether it was the weakened RNC Ukraine plank that coincided with the 2016 infusion of Russian money in the GOP or the current shake-down of Ukraine by withholding US military aid, the crime spree continues. Trump has made an intense effort to convince people that
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

Hey, I’d be tired, too. Wait, I am tired. The past two and a half years have felt like trying to harvest semen from a violently ill marlin on a Tilt-A-Whirl. In other words, exhausting. But now, apparently, White House officials are so fucking tired they’re
Even as they fundraise off the Impeachment Inquiry, chaos reigns in the WH. The White House is “paralyzed” and “teetering on the edge of a cliff” in the wake of an explosive whistleblower complaint about President Donald Trump's phone call with the Ukrainian president, a White House
