“”I know Sarah for a long time,” Cupp said. “And I’ve worked with her in all of her capacities, when she was at the House, when she was at the DOJ, when she was running a presidential campaign.

predictions on the mueller investigation report
Either the Mueller investigation report will show “collusion” or it won’t. Either the Mueller investigation reort will link the president to criminal actions or it will not. Expect spin regardless of the outcome. Maybe not at first. There will be debate and then they will agree on talking points. If it shows direct collusion between… Continue reading predictions on the mueller investigation report
Fox & Friends host says Ocasio-Cortez’s staff salary plans ‘socialism and communism on display’
Fox is acting in bad faith here. If AOC didn’t work to make sure every staffer had a living wage they would have called her a hypocrite. There is nothing she can do that FOX will not cover in the more unflattering and unfair way possible. Let’s stop pretending this is honest criticism. “”Fox &… Continue reading Fox & Friends host says Ocasio-Cortez’s staff salary plans ‘socialism and communism on display’
Roger Stone and the grand unified theory of GOP villainy
In my mind there are three basic types of villains in the world. You have your Bond Villains, they are larger than life world shaking monsters where the downfall is a plan too big for them to handle. Big ideas require big organizations and eventually someone slips up and alerts MI7. And then Double-O-Mueller shows… Continue reading Roger Stone and the grand unified theory of GOP villainy

Trapped in a hoax: survivors of conspiracy theories speak out
This is the problem in a nutshell. I’ve seen this first hand. Arguments about facts that make the theory seem less likely just bounce off boogymen appear from every corner. They become unreachable. Otherwise normal people who fully realize that Bill and Hillary Clinton were unable to conceal a blow job and an email server… Continue reading Trapped in a hoax: survivors of conspiracy theories speak out
New Hampshire Law Illegally Targets Young Voters Ahead of 2020 Primary
The GOP doesn’t want Democrats to vote and they are willing to lie cheat and steal to keep minority rule. “By requiring people to pay up to hundreds of dollars in vehicle registration fees if they register to vote, the law unconstitutionally restricts voting rights and, in particular, targets New Hampshire’s students and young people… Continue reading New Hampshire Law Illegally Targets Young Voters Ahead of 2020 Primary

Lawmakers launch new probe into ‘complex web’ of alleged ties between NRA, Russians
Citing what they called the NRA’s “unusually close relationship” with the Trump campaign, as well as its record spending in support of then-candidate Donald Trump, Lieu and Rice ultimately questioned whether the Kremlin might have used the NRA to funnel foreign money into the U.S. election system.“How much money did the NRA receive from Russia… Continue reading Lawmakers launch new probe into ‘complex web’ of alleged ties between NRA, Russians
The Real Origins of the Religious Right
Worth reading ever word from top to bottom. There has been too much revisionist history from the religious right. “it wasn’t until 1979—a full six years after Roe—that evangelical leaders, at the behest of conservative activist Paul Weyrich, seized on abortion not for moral reasons, but as a rallying-cry to deny President Jimmy Carter a… Continue reading The Real Origins of the Religious Right
