This is incredible.

And just like that Calvin strips me of whatever small sense of accomplishment I might have gotten out of this day.

Wait, so let me get this straight...the House Dems fumble their way into calling for a resolution to condemn “all hate” after anger from their caucus for singling out Omar and misconstruing her remarks as anti-Semitic...then the Resolution gets brought to the floor and two dozen House Rs vote against and Steve King votes present...yet Ilhan is the hateful one.

Which dumbass D thought this was a good idea? Is it no wonder why they are laughed at and Rs trample over them by continuing not to give a fuck?

Yes, the Republicans continue to trample over the Democrats because of a bill brought up in the House, a chamber where *checks notes* the Democrats just picked up 41 seats.
Quick Google shows that GoGo is wrong with regards to the Kiwi and the Banana.

Congress has memos on security clearances for Jared and Ivanka. Must have been leaked as WH had refused to provide.
On a scale of 1 to Chris Brown, how pissed is he?

I’m hearing increasing talk that there will not be a calm transfer of power if trump loses in 2020, especially if he knows he will be arrested the moment he walks out the door
I would rather see you lose than win myself

I've seen this but do not understand it. The secret service will protect the new president from a secure location. His detail would surely stand down if he had to be removed from the premises. The football and whatever other president specific things would be taken from him.

And also he is a huge fucking baby and has never actually had a conflict in his life. He talks tough and has no problem demeaning superiors but he's such a wimp that despite his trademark phrase being 'you're fired' he does it by tweet or has other people do it for him. I cannot see this giant man baby actually having a conflict on this level.

David Brooks has a column titled 'The Case for Reparations' and I thought it was a troll job but it's actually him coming around to the cause and I am in shock.
