Happy 40th Anniversary to one of my favorite movies, "Back To School"

I think this scene is underrated. Thornton Melon talks about how folks cut corners, still applicable today.

@rich21204 @mtaibbi @FreedomFriez Structural advantage to Republicans like Matt.

It’s not about arguments. It’s about facts.

I know one great fact about American elections, and I know it because the Republican Party has proved it to me:

There is no election fraud of any consequence anywhere in the United States.

The Republican Party and its allies, FOR DECADES, have been searching high and low, in every corner of our country, for evidence of election fraud.

This effort has been made with vast sums of money and other resources, and with some of the greatest powers in our nation at the party’s disposal:

A presidential commission under President Donald Trump.

The Department of Justice under President Donald Trump, armed with the resources of the FBI, and the powers of subpoena.

Committees of Congress under Republican control, also armed with the powers of subpoena and the investigative resources of the first branch of government.

State legislatures under Republican control, also with subpoena powers, have launched similar efforts to find evidence of election fraud.

Republican-controlled states have set up special commissions and task forces, some with subpoena powers, all well-funded and with access to the state’s electoral systems.

Conservative academics and think tanks have launched projects seeking out evidence of election fraud.

Fox News and the rest of MAGA media have dedicated significant resources to finding evidence of election fraud.

What is the result of this enormous Republican effort to find election fraud?

Ask The Heritage Foundation.

For nearly a decade, Heritage has maintained an “Election Fraud Database.”

The database contains “proven instances of election fraud.”

It covers elections going back nearly fifty years.

That’s billions and billions of American votes.

Right now, the total number of proven instances of election fraud that Heritage can document is:

1620.

That’s an infinitesimal number, vanishingly small, and it is solid proof of two things:

1. Some individuals commit election fraud.

2. There is no evidence at all of systemic or even widespread election fraud anywhere in the USA.

The election-fraud panic is the Big Lie of our time.

It is peddled by people who know better. Their own investigations over decades demonstrate that.

Stop trying to subvert our democracy.

[Sara McGee for Texas HD 132 @SaraForTexLege]

Of all the terrible things happening right now this one is possibly hitting me the hardest. Knowing that most of the bad can be undone keeps me going. But this can’t. You can’t undo the destruction of nature.

The Republicans who represent Texas could’ve stopped this and they didn’t. I’m gutted, and just hoping for a last minute miracle.💔

@Marlayna29 My Grandfather was born in 1883 and lived to 107. I was 23 when he died.

@Santiag06061890 @TorraineWalker He owned a bar where he had a peep hole to peek into the ladies room.

He transported a 14 year old girl across state lines.

@Stephen19718352 My grandfather had wine with every lunch and dinner of his 107 years.

@mnsportsguy72 @ProjectLincoln If borrowing money is the standard then you are right. No President has been more successful at driving up the country 's debt.

@KevinRobertsTX Well, there is going to be a pride event on the White House lawn.

[The Halfway Post @HalfwayPost]

BREAKING: A viral joke on social media to turn Trump’s White House UFC fight on America’s 250th birthday into the “gayest party in US history” is becoming real as hundreds of gay men are actually buying tickets and planning to show up shirtless, glittered up, and very flamboyant.

But @ejeancarroll remembered telling her friends about Trump's sexual assault of her right after it happened; her friends remembered her telling them about it; and they testified under oath about that. And a witness who worked at Bergdorf's confirmed E. Jean's recollection of the floor at the time. Not to mention the testimony of women who explained how Trump had similarly tried to sexually assault them. Or the videographic evidence of Trump bragging about how he liked to grab women "by the pussy," which is what the jury ultimately and unanimously found Trump had done to E. Jean. And there was much, much more.

As for @realDonaldTrump? Well, he testified that— ... oh, wait, he didn't testify at all at the trial because he was too afraid to face cross-examination in front of the jury.

So Byron, do you ever grow tired or ashamed of carrying water for a corrupt, psychopathic convicted felon and sexual predator? Or has your moral and intellectual compass degraded so much that you no longer care?
