Research into the Dunning-Kruger effect - the theory that the less someone knows, the more they think they know - began after a 1995 failed bank robbery. The thief covered his face in lemon juice because he thought it would make him invisible to the security cameras.

Pritzker: The reckoning is here. And now that this culture of timidity is on display, these same do-nothing Democrats want to blame our losses on the defense of Black people, trans kids, and immigrants, instead of on their own lack of guts and gumption.

When Republicans inevitably blame mental health and not the guns for the Florida State shooting - kindly remind them that 205 of them voted AGAINST a bill to expand school-based mental health services.

It’s not the video games. Not the social media. It’s not the pot or the porn. It’s not that there are too many doors or too few police. It’s the gun the shooter was able to get. And it’s the gun the shooter was able to fire. It’s the gun. It’s the gun. It’s the motherfucking gun.

I'm not concerned about the undocumented immigrant with some parking and speeding tickets. I'm concerned about the American citizen with 34 felony convictions who is driving America right into a fucking ditch.

A childhood hero of mine has passed today. "Was it a dream where you see yourself standing in sort of sun god robes on a pyramid with a 1000 naked women screaming and throwing little pickles at you? No... Why am I the only person who has that dream?" RIP Chris Knight

The administration’s key demand is not just that they can send anyone they like to a foreign labor camp, it’s that you will accept without question their assertion that the people they choose are dangerous menaces who deserve it. They want your unquestioning obedience.

Hochul: I convened a roundtable of farmers who are desperately fearful that this is going to kill their livelihood. They export most of their products to Canada; they get a lot of supplies—their fertilizer all comes in from Canada—this is going to crush the livelihoods of people who supported them.

The only takeaway from last night's SOTU speech that actually matters so far as our future is concerned is that only ONE democrat was removed from the chamber for standing up to Trump's bullshit. Only one old democrat with a cane and no fucks left for fascism. It should have been ALL of them.

It’s becoming increasingly clear that we’re going to have to destroy or takeover the Democratic Party before we can even hope to start to fight the Republican Party.

They’re going to demolish the country and then they’re going to say that Biden did it and all of these Nazi maga dipshits who only want genocide and slavery to come back are going to pretend they believe it because that’s easier than facing the horrifyingly failed reality of themselves.

Grovel. The word you're looking for is grovel. When you come before Trump, it's not as an equal, it's as a peasant, a serf, a prole, hat in hand, touching your forelock, and you grovel and kiss his ass and tell him how great he is, or you are guilty of criminal disrespect against the State. 1/

Looks like tomorrow will bring votes on a Republican plan to fund tax cuts for the rich by slashing Medicaid. So this is a great time to contact your Member of Congress.

As we prepare for the Republicans to completely gut Medicaid, be aware that the The Emergency Medical Treatment and Labor Act requires hospitals to treat patients regardless of insurance or ability to pay. Hospitals are going to fold and EVERYONE'S medical care will go up.
