“Pelosi, who knows a bit about leveraging power and appearances, responds to her local archbishop’s denying her communion over being pro-choice by going to see the Pope and getting communion in St Peter’s five days after the Dobbs decision https://t.co/6QE9PxZiKr”

Merrick Garland's DOJ is prosecuting thousands of people for smoking weed.

but they can't manage to arrest a Russian spy who they caught red-handed with a pile of stolen top-secret documents?

Garland must be fired immediately. https://twitter.com/djrothkopf/status/1564979947722182656

“Given the levels of recklessness, lawlessness & deception involved in Trump's theft of the classified documents found at Mar-a-Lago why do we assume that's the only place he kept such documents? Why do we assume he respected the law in his treatment of them these past 20 months?”

Has anybody noticed that a rainy island replacing one figurehead with another is probably the least important "news" story of the century?

The amounts of vicious hate I see being hurled at a couple of actors...

terrifies me.

I really thought we were better than that. I was very wrong.

My own party is full of loud-mouthed assholes and it's all there for everyone to see on social media.

All of this could have happened 3 years ago

but Pelosi took her sweet time and dragged the whole process out as long as possible.

It’s been 13 years since we raised the federal minimum wage to $7.25 an hour. That’s the longest period without a raise in the history of the minimum wage.

and people say Pelosi was the most effective House Speaker ever.

@nickgillespie @reason @FreeRangeKids @ProfEmilyOster When we grew up, children were street-smart instead of screen-smart, played outdoors and learned to fend for themselves. Today they usually have an adult in the line of sight, are not allowed to take risks and are shielded from all types of danger – real, perceived or improbable.

The intensity of the DELUSION about Pelosi's record is just shocking.

Dems worship her the way the Cons worshiped Reagan, and quite frankly the historical reality is that both of them were absolutely terrible in every way.

Well-documented objective facts clearly show that.
