Hitler wasn't "Hitler" until he became the evil man known as Hitler So, when you hear idiots say "calling Trump 'Hitler' is too far", remember: Trump wasn't "Trump" until he became the evil man known as Trump- and we're not far from him becoming "Hitler".

Want to shout out Yale, and especially their QB, Dante Reno. Former Yale head coach, and Dante’s dad, Tony Reno passed away yesterday. He’d been the head coach for the Bulldogs for over a decade until he stepped down last Spring Dante played today, put up big numbers, and led Yale to a win.

The Democrats better act exactly like the GOP would once the midterms are over, no more decency, no more following the “rules”. They don’t deserve it!

The problem with even trying to talk to Trump voters is that there is really no polite way to say, "How can you be so fucking stupid?"

My take from the Smith hearings: To be a GOP senator today, you have to be a lying piece-of-shit, who puts loyalty to party & our lying piece-of-shit president, above their oaths to the Constitution & their obligations to tell the truth & do what rights to the American people! Repost if U agree

I think people underestimate how much giving this regime the power of the executive branch is equivalent to giving the keys to the control room, and at that point all there is no leverage to work with.

I loved bumbershoot back in the early ‘90s when the tickets were cheap, and the music was epic. Ali Farka Toure under the space needle, Patti Smith returning from motherhood. Ray Charles playing tunes I’ve never heard. Alas, admittedly, Burning Man became a scheduling conflict in the late ‘90s
