Steve Mnuchin Tried To Mansplain To Maxine Waters. It Didn’t Go Well.

The treasury secretary was clearly not prepared to deal with someone as savvy as the House Financial Services Committee chair.

Munchkins. They just can’t deal with the real world.

Killing migratory birds, even unintentionally, has been a crime for decades. Not anymore

Yet another reason the current administration disgusts me so, as an active birder. They respect money and power, above all else. Karma will not be kind to Repubes.

Nothing is beyond these guys. They are probably really engaging in child sex in basements of pizza places.

Newt Gingrich displays what Repubes really care about

Hey, Newt, you asshole! Someone's wealth has absolutely NOTHING to do with their integrity, honesty, qualifications for office, or overall worth as a human being. To assholes like you and most other Repubes, and Trumpkin idiots, it seems to mean EVERYTHING. You just don't f'ing get it!

Bill Weld officially announces he is challenging Trump for GOP nomination in 2020

https://www.cnn.com/2019/04/15/polit...ump/index.html

Quote:
Former Massachusetts Gov. Bill Weld announced Monday he is officially entering the race for president, becoming the first Republican to challenge President Donald Trump in the 2020 race.

"Ours is a nation built on courage, resilience, and independence. In these times of great political strife, when both major parties are entrenched in their 'win at all cost' battles, the voices of the American people are being ignored and our nation is suffering," Weld, who had previously formed an exploratory committee, said in a statement.

"It is time for patriotic men and women across our great nation to stand and plant a flag. It is time to return to the principles of Lincoln -- equality, dignity, and opportunity for all. There is no greater cause on earth than to preserve what truly makes America great. I am ready to lead that fight."
Great stuff, but the Repubes are so far gone, doubt he has a snowball's chance in hell. WAY too many Whells in the party of hate now.

ICE has deported the spouse of a U.S. soldier killed in Afghanistan, leaving the couple's 12-year-old daughter, a U.S. citizen, in Phoenix without parents.

Cruelty seems to be the point.

Asswipe should be assessed court costs and McClatchy's costs when he loses.

Yep. McClatchy is insured against legal costs in lawsuits like this? Fine, Nunes should pay back the insurance company for what this costs them.

And I'd give the defendants damages for the trouble and the hit to their reputation.

Parkland shooter goes MAGA on his dead mother

Parkland school shooter Nikolas Cruz was obsessed with guns — and to the chagrin of his mother, also appeared to be a fan of President Donald Trump.

So when his mother, “a liberal anti-gun type,” died in 2017, Cruz used his own “Trump hat” to get a twisted final word on their political differences, a friend told police in a 425-page investigative report released on Thursday.

“Due to the fact that his mother hated Donald Trump he put it in her casket with her when she died and took a picture of her with the hat,” the friend, Hunter McCutcheon, told a detective, according to a report authored by the lead detective in the criminal case against the confessed mass murderer.
