Given that the complainant in Galloway's case has withdrawn her major defense to his defamation claim (i.e. she is no longer going to argue that the things she said were true and therefore don't amount to defamation), maybe Margaret wasn't wrong after all.

Who would put it past Trump to false flag an attack on a California city and use it as a pretext to declare martial law. It’s a very Putin thing to do and we all know how Trump feels about Putin.

Mike Rogers is a corporate sellout who moves back to Michigan every few years to run for office to take another swing at the revolving door of corporate politics.

not the least of the pleasures (guilty or otherwise) is the sight of a Tony winner (Roddy McDowall) and an Academy Award winner (Kim Hunter) slumming (?) it as Cornelius and Zira. They are worth the price of admission.

She barely won over a more centrist candidate. There's a lot of hubris there if she thinks a narrrow win gives her a mandate to lurch hard right.

i think one of the hidden keys to politics right now is "how can our side make sure that the 'trump is gonna kill a bunch of beautiful wild horses' story gets in front of the millions of otherwise apolitical consumers of social media horse-related content"

Shocked to learn that the political party led by pedophiles and dedicated to protecting pedophiles has created a police force filled with pedophiles.
A new report by the Ohio Immigrant Alliance, released today, pulls back the curtain on a stunning level of sexual criminal behavior within ICE and CBP. Out of 152 cases of identified immigration officials or contractors accused or convicted of criminal behavior, 131 of them, or 86.2 percent, were charged with sex offenses. Seventy-eight of them—51 percent of the entire cohort—"committed sex offenses against children—the single largest category on the list," the report states. Cases involving a CBP officer, the report finds, "are more likely to involve underage victims" than those of an ICE officer. Yet fully half of ICE officers accused or convicted of sex offenses (12 of 24) had a minor as their victim.
