“With flaccid Democrats and craven Republicans, King Donald can pretty much do whatever he wants to whomever he wants.”

Crappy headline, @nytimes.com. The correct adjective for her clearly is “principled,” not “ambitious.” You can’t tell the good people from the bad ones.

RONALD REAGAN (1988): We should be aware of the demagogues who are ready to declare a trade war against our friends, weakening our economy, our national security, and the entire free world—all while cynically waving the American flag.

there were 76 days between election day and trump's inauguration day. him taking the presidency was not a surprise that suddenly happened on jan 20. and yet, right now, the democratic party is STILL SAYING it wasn't ready for this and that it is STILL getting its footing.

Buried in this story is this single sentence as a single paragraph. How sad is it that this has to even be stated? And for how long will it be true? “In the United States, people are innocent until proven guilty in a court of law.”

This column by @jamellebouie.net is so right on. C’mon Democrats, get your shit together. And no more @schumer.senate.gov speaking for us, listlessly reading with his head down and glasses falling off. Find some f’n energy and charisma to the fight!

Can anyone explain to me what the function of the Democratic Party is today and how it is serving that function? Are they still around? If so, is there any evidence of that?

Nothing but the best people. Plus how he treated women. Central casting for a Trump appointee. “President-elect Donald J. Trump’s choice for defense secretary led two nonprofits into debt, and episodes of drinking continued into his days as a Fox News personality.”

MAGA be fine with Biden pardoning his son. Trump pardoned at least 3 friends / henchmen (Manafort, Bannon, D’Souza) and will pardon the J6 rioters and himself. Trump hires relatives - daughter and son-in-law first term; now two father-in-laws. Biden has a lot of catching up to do.

Would anyone build I-794 through downtown Milwaukee today? No. We shouldn’t waste money to rebuild now. Instead, we can replace with a boulevard and housing, help the economy and create a neighborhood.

Headline should be: “The Right Triumphed Over Social Media AND MAINSTREAM MEDIA (emphasis added)”…
