The Democratic Party deserves criticism But for "undecided" voters and people who STILL support the party that watched in silence as Trump turned the country into a dumpster fire, no slogan, campaign strategy, or speech will ever change their MAGA mind.

Don’t Blame the Democrats

With the midterms less than a month away, who should be blamed if the Democrats lose?

Lafayette Square isn't "a historic protest site." It's a fucking park. And it's packed on nice days. Calling it a protest site is White House framing. They're closing a popular public park to create a presidential palace Saddam Hussein would love.

There is one part of the #Lanterns fandom that is glad there was no "mindless CGI battles" in the finale. There is another part that is angry that this didn't happen. I think we can have a genuine discussion that both the viewpoints are wrong, and also correct at the same time.
