When Grammy-winning musician Rhiannon Giddens begins playing “Old Corn Liquor,” a traditional Black American folk tune, acclaimed Chinese pipa virtuoso Wu Man recognizes similarities to Chinese pentatonic music and spontaneously joins in. The joy on their faces says it all.

I don’t think he does. He is kept in a bubble and occasionally trotted out to gatherings of cult members to reinforce the illusion. He is a narcissistic idiot, easily manipulated.

Exactly right. You don’t need to hack the vote when you can hack the voters.

A woman can’t work for Trump until she has disfigured and debased herself. Men just have to debase themselves.

This is no small thing. Putin’s Internet Research Agency socially engineered Brexit by getting the anti-Brexit people to stay home, not vote. It did the same with our 2024 presidential election. Taking Russia off the internet will change everything.

Your electric bill is up as much as 30%. PG&E's CEO took home $63.6 MILLION. Duke's CEO took home $51.2 MILLION. And both companies paid NEGATIVE federal tax rates. That's not a coincidence. That's a rigged system. Tax the rich.

When my kids were little, in diapers, that’s how they would stand if they were pooping “out in the wild.”

50 years of Dem failure to make things better for Americans. Bunch of spineless, gutless, whiners. Republicans have embraced active evil. Dems’ evil has always been plain vanilla complacency and lack of agency. Evil without the horns.

My wife of 35 years still is traumatized by a stalking experience from when we were in grad school. The guy had even been entering her apartment when she was away. I haven’t met a better soul in my life than her, and it’s obscene that she still has to carry this.

I have no doubt you’re right but the problem is the “he legally can’t do that” has never stopped him from doing anything. And there is never a legal follow-up. He started an insurrection FFS.
