If you want to really know how the outrage machine gets fired up: 1. Schmitt plans to drop “bombshell” on Smith 2. Someone plants story that Schmitt is a Vance VP contender to run same day 3. Right-wing Twittersphere gets talking points 4. Schmitt steps in it 5. Scheduled tweets go out anyway

Putting aside that the UK was never a bystander, but rather a junior partner in facilitating the genocide and apartheid by maintaining regular relations with Israel for decades, it is still refreshing to see Miliband speak like this. Who in the Democratic Party does the same aside from Van Hollen?

Just as an aside. Going through any portion of a legal process around sexual violence and abuse is incredibly traumatizing and difficult. The legal system is not set up to protect survivors. I think it should be obvious by now, It’s set up to do quite the opposite.

Every college in this country decided that expelling and/or sending the police to beat the shit out of their own students for the crime of being opposed to genocide was their top priority. That and giving Trump complete control of what they teach. Contrast that with how they treat rapists.

Yet another Democrat has released an ad decrying "boys in girls sports." This Democrat is NY-21's Democratic candidate for congress, Blake Gendebien. You can watch his full ad in our latest story. He joins several other Democrats releasing similar ads this cycle.
