@cassandra17lina hardly even registering a blip on society's interest screen. Unreal.
@cassandra17lina breaking news like this would normally mean the end of this jurist's career. God, I miss normal.
Good morning to everyone who has worked so hard to avoid even the slightest suggestion of impropriety or conflict of interest in their business and personal dealings. You underwent training by your employer, you signed ethics declarations, you followed the rules, you kept all the receipts, you filed meticulous expense reports. You deserve every bit of your fury at the stone-cold bribery of Justice Clarence Thomas. It’s past time to chisel off the word “Supreme” from the Supreme Court.
@MMH although the Clarence Thomas musical will be amazing and full of treachery.
@MMH I'm struggling to picture what the Lindsey Graham musical would sound and look like.

@XaoslordErie I retired from teaching in June of 2020. On my first day in the classroom in February of 1998, a student approached me and informed me that the students in this class, I was taking over, watched Jerry every day at 1PM in the darkroom. The TV was removed from the classroom that afternoon. Those first kids didn't like me much. They got over it. When I learned that he passed, that long ago moment played in my head. Reality TV has been the ultimate in dumbing down our nation.
This is the culture we're breeding by not ridding our neighborhoods of these war weapons. This woman was describing the shooting of a family that simply requested that their neighbor stop shooting after 11 PM because it was waking an infant trying to sleep.
That angered him so much he shot and killed five people (including an eight year old child). There were apparently no good guys with guns on the scene.
This is insanity. This is Texas. This is the United States today.
@DavidSalo it's not so much winning power - it's winning on the increasing size of their portfolios. Greed is their motivation. They're selling a bizarre morality to religious fanatics. They have no interest in real governing.

@wolfwoman when is MSNBC going to hire Heather as Rachel's heir apparent? Her voice is strong and unique.

Our government was gone as soon as politicians turned their attention to people's personal choices in gender and who they love.
Those issues are not meant for politics but for religious beliefs. If you don't want an abortion because of your religion, don't get one. If you don't like porn don't watch it, if you don't like marijuana don't take it. But quit pushing your effing religion on others. And keep it the F out of politics. See 1st amendment.
@MMH how unfortunate all these young people seem to end up stepping into fire. Accidents don’t happen.
@carmen any apology will be directed only to Dominion. Fox’s culpability in empowering Trump will never be addressed.
@Beanc John Gorka is my go to guy these days.
Flew in from that other place. Very Glad to be here, people are central to social media that works.
