    Primaries vs smoke-filled rooms

    True... But again, that's not because of primaries. It's because of gerrymandering. Oh? When was the last time you voted for a party official? Did you vote for Ken Martin to lead the DNC, or Michael Whatley to run the RNC? We could also let state legislatures pick Senators. :D And again, the...

    Kimmel absolutely "torches" Trump and Carr.

    Sadly, most Republicans stopped caring about shame, hypocrisy and consistency a long time ago. Kimmel did point out that a few Republicans realize the danger here. All you have to do is imagine President Ocasio Cortez going after Fox News; in the past week or so, they've had commentators...

    Kimmel absolutely "torches" Trump and Carr.

    Well isn't that convenient. I guess you can excuse the actions of the most vile pedophiles and dictators just by saying "God uses evil people," right? Sorry, but I am not buying it. While I do not consider myself an expert on Christian theology, I'm not aware of any canonical text to support...

    FBI is investigating agent that sued Alex Jones.

    I fully support the lawsuits against Jones. There is no 1st Amendment issue, as no one has the right to defame others. He deliberately and repeatedly defamed people specifically for his own benefit. He also made things a thousand times worse for himself by refusing to cooperate with the courts...

    Primaries vs smoke-filled rooms

    Party selection of candidates will not make jurisdictions less partisan; you already know that, because you know districts are getting more uniform (and gerrymandered). It will just concentrate more power, with less accountability, into the hands of the party bosses. It doesn't guarantee that...

    Opinion: There is no First Amendment right to obstruct law enforcement

    Wow. That is just super messed up. You do know that due process is a right, yes? Police can't just murder criminals because you think putting them on trial is inconvenient. You do know that bail is a constitutionally protected right, yes? You didn't miss that bit? This isn't merely a moral...

    Opinion: There is no First Amendment right to obstruct law enforcement

    Opposition to desegregation, and the fights over busing, was not limited to South Boston. It wasn't just Southies who refused to cooperate with the Racial Imbalance Act. Don't forget, one of the "solutions" to the busing crisis was White students switching to private schools; and White flight...

    Donald Trump Fumes Over Jimmy Kimmel’s Return: ‘Bunch of Losers’

    On a more serious point.... ABC and other media outlets should learn that appeasement does not work. E.g. ABC caved to one of El Jefe's frivolous defamation suits, with the expectation that would placate him -- and clearly it did not work. The only option is to fight back, no matter how...

    Tom Homan was investigated for accepting $50,000 from undercover FBI agents. Trump's DOJ shut it down.

    I'm pointing out that in an earlier post you wrote, you accused Biden of unspecified corruption with no evidence whatsoever. I'm pointing out that your demanding evidence before even considering this as possible is... a double standard? Hypocrisy? Partisan bias? Take your pick.

    (Irish Star) Fox News host Jesse Watters wildly suggests bombing the UN for Trump escalator 'sabotage'

    You expect MAGA to be what, consistent? To avoid blatant hypocrisy? That's adorable. :D

    Primaries vs smoke-filled rooms

    It isn't. Extremists have simply hijacked the low turnouts of primaries, and relied on partisanship and a lack of competitiveness to carry them through the election. You're treating a symptom like it's the root cause. But do go on. How do you measure that? Uhhhhh yeah... it does. We...

    Statue of Trump and Epstein holding hands placed on National Mall

    FTFY :D You do realize that the DoJ and FBI, and possibly other law enforcement agencies, have lots of information that isn't public yet, right? And that the Chump DoJ has repeatedly tried to head-fake everyone by repeatedly releasing the same materials? You didn't miss that bit, I hope?

    Tom Homan was investigated for accepting $50,000 from undercover FBI agents. Trump's DOJ shut it down.

    So, you think the FBI covering up corruption is a good thing? It's rather fascinating how you didn't demand evidence before accusing Biden of corruption.... https://debatepolitics.com/threads/doj-asked-to-investigate-joe-bidens-cognitive-decline-while-president.563542/page-3#post-1081207956

    Do you dissaprove of Nexstar and Sinclair censoring Kimmel? Here is what you can do.

    Y'know, it's not like boycotts and customer complaints suddenly started working a week ago. Boycotts date back to at least the 1950s, when Blacks boycotted the Montgomery bus system, sparked by Rosa Parks' arrest. The boycott caused lots of fiscal problems for the bus system, embarrassed the...

    American College of Obstetrics and Gynecology affirms safety affirms safety of Tylenol in pregnancy

    They're not embarrassed, because they don't care about actual science or actual facts, and are so lacking in conscience that they deflect all shame... even when their decisions cause thousands, or millions, of deaths. As a result, they refuse to accept any and all evidence that they're wrong...
