A Vanity Fair reporter just said on MSNBC that Jared Kushner is heavily involved because he's probably trying to get Trump to pardon his father.

MIT Tech Review on how advanced/automated manufacturing assures Trumps claims to bring back jobs are complete bullshit.

I'm considering it.

So am I, not so much because of the near-term potential for harassment or worse (as I'm a straight white man [hope they don't find out I'm an atheist!]), but in case the doomsday scenario becomes real. Gonna need guns in post-apocalyptic America.

Mike Pence attended a showing of Hamilton tonight and he got booed by the crowd as he was going to his seat.

Shannon @TheStagmania
At #Hamilton. Mike Pence is here and the entire theater just booed him.


Christy Colburn @christymoose
I'm at #Hamilton and so is Mike Pence. Crowd booed him like crazy, and gave a standing O at the line "immigrants we get the job done"


Shannon @TheStagmania
During "You'll Be Back (Reprise)" they had to keep pausing the song while people jeered Pence on every line.

And some of my really intelligent attorney friends are crowing about that Ford announcement. When I point out that Ford was simply telling Trump AGAIN that they didn't have plans to go anywhere, and that the UAW deal was negotiated in 2015, and provide a link to the September news stories where Ford fact-checked Trump's Mexico Ford plant claims... silence.

They don't care about facts.



It's frustrating, but you need to keep at it. We all do. Turning this around and letting people see what's going on will take a lot of time and effort. Need to keep a long term view or we'll never get back from this.

which is why democrats need to throw all decorum out the window and fight some of these people (sessions) tooth and nail.



yup, that's what I meant when I said we need some mad dogs in there right now. This can't stand. I know the "if they go low, we go high" thing worked for Obama, but he was one of a kind. WE're going to have to get our hands dirty.

Pence got booed at Hamilton last night. Conservatives are appalled that he was bullied.

are we ever going to deal with our hypocrisy?

we made a big show of caring about women during the campaign but there will never be any rebuke of Bill Clinton or any pushback on the rampant misogyny in Hollywood and popular music. we pretend to care about Muslims but we've had no problem rending the flesh from their bones for 8 years of Democratic leadership. the Dakota Pipeline was conceived and executed under Democrats. 'we go high' is a farce and we shouldn't be surprised that our identity politics ring hollow

these reasons aren't why dems lose elections, mostly...so probably not.

Please, scold...somebody, I guess... some more, rather than sharing your bright ideas for doing things better.

Or are you just cleansing your palate before sampling a rack full of drumpfian boots? I hear Jeff Sessions' wingtipped tootsies are to die for

Really just stop with this kind of shit. Look at who's next to you, who is more like you than unlike you, then look at who's moving into the god-damned white house soon. Who you with? Grow a pair of fucking balls.
