@mjs_DC What I find most amazing is the stupidity. The Republicans spent billions to rig SCOTUS, yet Clarence doesn't seem to realize that he has put their enterprise in danger.

@Jay_McGill94 Biden is just a garden variety corporate whore. He is way better than the alternative (Trump) but he is a staunch defender of the status quo.

At least Trump will have a nicer bathroom in prison than he does at Mar-a-Lago

@anneapplebaum @djrothkopf Nice to see that not all the Stupid White Men are in America.

@LarryBoorstein Maybe it's just me, but aren't there more important things for us to focus on?

[Global Yokel @GlobalYokel]

@JonathanTurley @LarryBoorstein We can measure the shallowness of the Republican Party by the issues they choose to focus on. Biden's dog, Hunter's laptop, and trans kids. It's a sad spectacle, watching a major political party shame itself with this nonsense.

@killaxxxcam Aldean needs to do a song about all the drug abuse, spousal abuse, and unemployment in his beloved small towns full of white people.

[The Intellectualist @highbrow_nobrow]

In a 2004 interview with @Harpers, John Ehrlichman, the Watergate co-conspirator, admitted that the Nixon Administration invented the war on drugs in order to imprison Black-Americans and hippies, two groups he felt threatened by.

Ehrlichman in his own words:

@harari_yuval Same with Trump, Kissinger, Thatcher, etc. Assholes who somehow accumulated too much power.

@7Veritas4 @CarolynUrban2 Somebody needs to add up the awesome amount of lawyer time and cost associated with the existence of Donald Trump. I bet it outweighs our national GDP.

What’s the only thing better than having your own Gulfstream jet? Why, getting to claim millions in tax deductions for it. All you have to do is make a case you’re using it for business, which turns out to be surprisingly easy. https://t.co/ET1yCVeYJm

@MikeDrucker @katewillett Sympathetic cross-industry strikes would be the bomb. Korporate Amerika will shit a brick if that tactic spreads.

[Global Yokel @GlobalYokel]

@jennycohn1 Republicans want to give more tax breaks to the 1% and further de-regulate the corporate sector, and the dominionists and other naive and obedient 'christians' serve as their foot soldiers.

@WolvesClips Trade Gobert, please.

@justinhendrix There are hookers on the street with more integrity than Clarence Thomas.

@atensnut @ShoreProgress The only contribution that Trump has made to our economy is that he has provided employment for hundreds of lawyers.

[Global Yokel @GlobalYokel]

@atensnut @ShoreProgress Trump and his golf trips cost vastly more than Smith's investigation.

@strike_dr @jmnphillips1 Part of the problem is that we continue to call them "conservatives." They aren't.

[Global Yokel @GlobalYokel]

@davidsirota Shapiro is the best of the Democrats by a long shot.

[Global Yokel @GlobalYokel]

@LePapillonBlu2 @plantz3610 I wish people would stop referring to right wing nut jobs as "conservatives." That term gives the bastards a mainstream legitimacy that they don't deserve.
