I don't think the House is all that lost. The demographics in the gerrymandered districts changed. The Dems took the house from the Republicans in 2018 with gerrymandered districts. The demographic...

The Dems have a favorable map in 2022 and it seems unlikely the Republicans will take the House. I don't think their gains in 2020 are all that solid unless they do something other than try to block...

Kayleigh must have had a hard time with it. There were some complicated concepts and words with more than three syllables in them that must have been hard for her to understand.

That has far more to do with policing in this country than what cigarettes Garner was selling. What happened to him is a great argument to reform police practices in this country. It is not a great...

No one is talking about making anything a crime. The FDA is talking about telling manufacturers they can't add menthol to cigarettes. Adding menthol would be a civil violation enforced by the FDA on...

I'm sure that dumb **** would have threatened the use of the Insurrection Act, called out the Proud Boys, the Oath Keeper and every other species of Trumptrash to make sure there were riots.

It's hard to say. The rumor mill will take increasing the cap and probably translate it to "The floodgates are open". Doubling is probably an optimistic projection.

I think there are precious few left in the News Division of Fox who are. Most actual journalists are leaving or trying to leave. Newsmax and OAN not so much.

But she's the only nominee being held to that standard. I'm not okay with old white men holding a woman of color to a standard they don't follow themselves. It's sexist and racist and needs to stop.

It won't be viable if alternative energy cars become more popular. It's really only viable if oil is over about $50 a barrel. As alternatives increase, demand for oil will soften. That will kill...

Progressives need to remember that Biden won because he's not a progressive. If a progressive candidate had secured the Democratic nomination we'd all be contemplating another four years of Trump.

Marky is just starting early on trying to assume Trump's mantle. What he doesn't realize is that the pack will never follow a beta dog. This pack is going to need a new alpha.
