Not suffering fools since none of your damn business. Never Trump.

David Legates has a long history of using his position as an academic scientist to publicly cast doubt on climate science.

Now, he's been hired for a top position at the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration. https://t.co/flB5A69Qmp

Deputies have contacted several groups of residents in Corbett who have set up checkpoints and are stopping cars. While we understand their intent is to keep the community safe, it is never legal to block a public roadway or force other citizens to stop.

For the Nothing Matters crowd:

- 23% say opinion changed of Trump’s COVID response because of Woodward tape, including 15% of Trump voters

- 23% of indys and 6% of Trump voters say troop comments increased support for Biden

- Biden goes from +6 to +10

Trying to remember to go high when they go low. The only political action responsible for the fires is political inaction. People would rather live in a community with unreasonable claims, than face loneliness with their truth.

Who’s the president, mr president? Abhorrent.

Trump: "If Bob Woodward thought what I said was bad then he should have immediately, right after I said it, gone out to the authorities so they can prepare..."

@PhilipRucker: "Bob Woodward is not the president."

If @AOC's Green New Deal is "extreme," how would describe the blood-soaked skies of Oregon? Business as usual?

Holy shit ⁦@BrianKempGA⁩ stole the damn election.

Of the more than 300,000 names that were purged from the rolls, the study discovered that 198,351 Georgia voters were wrongly purged, a 63.3% error rate. https://t.co/T5AFcx9iXB

“Kenosha Deadly Protests”

"3rd Night of Protests in Kenosha, Wis., Turns Deadly"

"Two People Confirmed Dead After Gunfire at Protests in Kenosha"

Reading these headlines, you would never know that a right-wing vigilante traveled 20 miles to instigate violence.

If guessing which actor is the voice of an animated character was an art, I’d be the Frida of my genre.

Lori Loughlin was just sentenced to two months in prison for paying bribes to get her daughters into USC.

This is the same system that sentenced Crystal Mason, a Black mother of three, to five years for voting when she didn't realize a past felony conviction made her ineligible.

Pair Obama’s warning with the fact that Trump’s sponsor Putin just poisoned the most prominent and potent opposition figure in Russia. We live at a time where everything is at stake, everywhere.

@dunknicoll @Dawnp42 Congratulations you, two!

The next time Trump brags about donating his $400,000 presidential salary, remember that his golf trips have cost taxpayers $140,000,000.

JUST IN: Postal workers are sounding the alarm as mail sorting machines are getting removed without an explanation.

Congress must act immediately and exercise the full force of its powers to stop the sabotage of the USPS before it’s too late.

Everyone wants what’s best for their kids’ education. But who gets to decide what’s best for everyone? “Nice White Parents” takes a look at one Brooklyn public school — and repeated efforts to change it — over 60 years.

This is what happens when governments think a free press is “the enemy of the state”. Don’t look away. It could happen here, and everywhere.

All of these autocrats would destroy their own countries to hold power - which is why they need to go. All of them.

Ted Cruz voted to pass a $740,000,000,000 military budget two weeks ago. That's $2 billion a day, every day.
