How can a person possibly form this ridiculous thought privately, let alone express it where the public, which knows very well by now what kinds of things Donald Trump does and doesn’t do, can see it?
Who the fuck is history
History—in the sense of a recorded sequence of events available to be known and interpreted—says that Nixon’s pardon led directly to a series of ever more criminal presidencies, eventually bringing us Trump, with Nixon’s own henchmen actively supporting the new crimes!
One look at the giant Nixon tattoo on Roger Stone's back tells you more truth about American political history than a mile-high stack of pious tributes to Gerald Ford's statesmanship ever could

Let me just look up "attempting to gain monopolistic power" using Google, which is the default search engine on my Apple iPhone, thanks to a multibillion-dollar access deal between two ostensible business rivals
The first paragraph of Peter Baker's story was sweepingly wrong about everything, but the second paragraph vaguely gestured at a few caveats, so the complaints about our coverage have no merit
One problem with the quoted remarks is that THIS IS AN INTENTIONAL MISQUOTE OF THE ACTUAL QUOTE THE WHOLE FAKE CONTROVERSY IS BUILT ON
Bret Stephens flipped around the quote to make it seem more like the point of it was to diminish the incident
Ilhan Omar's actual quote was so inoffensive that Bret Stephens had to rewrite it AND imagine it in a different context to try to make it sound more offensive
The real triumph of fascism turns out to be not so much a boot endlessly stomping a face as an endless procession of people piously acting out the dril good/bad tweet
The Atlantic piece bleats on and on about "norms" and waiting for 2020 without bothering to acknowledge that Tlaib has explicitly raised and rejected those arguments on principle theatlantic.com/politics/archi…
What are you really saying about our political system if you believe Trump is unfit and corrupt, but you don't want him impeached because the Republicans will protect him? You believe our system is entirely corrupt and worthless **but you don't want anyone to see that**.
OK let's talk for a minute about what a fraud Salena Zito is, and how S.E. Cupp carried on that fraud for her in @nytopinion
Salena Zito has built a market niche for herself as the person who explains Trump voters to the coastal media—the premise being that Hillary Clinton narrowly lost the Rust Belt and Upper Midwest by failing to persuade a persuadable class of voters.
So here is S.E. Cupp explaining, through one of Zito's sources, how and why the Democrats have failed to persuade some of the women they needed to reach.
Weird how many respectable civic-minded Trump-denouncing Republican Senators are here on the list faithfully voting for the racist who's now driving the ethnic cleansing campaign nytimes.com/interactive/20…
By "weird" I mean extremely predictable, they're all bigoted swine who support kidnapping children from their parents as part of a campaign of terror to maintain white political power
Jeff Sessions was a known racist who'd been found unfit to be a judge, and John McCain, Ben Sasse, Jeff Flake, Susan Collins, and all the rest of them voted to put him in charge of law enforcement, where he's now using the power of the federal government to abuse children
