When -- not if, when -- Republicans respond to their losses this fall by crying about "voter fraud" and demanding Congress or the courts review the results, we have good lawyers and elected officials ready to push back. But the rest of us need to take a page from 2000 and mock them as sore losers.

(2) At the time I had no idea how dramatic my life would change and it has been a struggle for every day since. I guess what I'm saying take care because life changes in a flash and if you want to do something to honor me, by all means feel free to go out and punch a #fascist. #antifa #resist #fight

(1) Thirteen years ago today, an SUV rear ended an SUV which rear ended my Honda Civic. There was only a couple of thousands of dollars of damage to the car. In that moment, life changed in half a heartbeat as my brain sloshed around in my skull in what is called a coup-contrecoup injury.
