Do you remember the first time you saw an owl pellet? ... Which Supreme Court opinion does it remind you of? They're turning rights into privileges and I am NOT a happy camper

When he was Chair of the House Intelligence Committee, Mike Rogers (the Republican candidate for Senate in Michigan) publicly took the position that "you can't have your privacy violated if you don't know your privacy is violated." Colbert had some fun with that: crooksandliars.com/cltv/2013/10...

One of my biggest criticisms of the Biden era is how we refused to keep our elected officials accountable. We took our foot off the gas. We stopped demanding progress because we entrusted those crusty fkrs to do the right thing, and then they tried to right the ship by clinging to the life raft.

Remember that time that "health" CEO was yeeted off this mortal plane and things changed for the better? Things are eternally bad when violence is only directed at the poor and vulnerable, and that's a universal truth... Too bad we got NIMBY's/ liberals/Nazis

Underneath solar panels, plants grew much more and used less water, "Chiltepin pepper plants produced three times as much fruit as those grown in full sun. Jalapenos matched their usual harvest while using 65 percent less water. Tomatoes grown under the array came in at twice the normal yield."

NEW: Capital One closed hundreds of Trump accounts for money laundering. We wouldn’t have known if Trump hadn’t sued. Now he’s got tax immunity. My latest: www.muellershewrote.com/p/new-capita...

And I sincerely believe that candidates should make a point of saying Republicans want to spend all their time looking in your daughter's underpants and giving tax breaks to billionaires instead of making sure families can eat and afford a place to live.

The Oregonian Editorial Board must be choking on Tom Dundon’s boot. A senile and one-sided analysis of the Moda Center work session, lambasting council for moderate pushback while basically writing off the Blazers’ request to post-hoc edit a lease agreement.

Every Republican that appears on weekend cable news programs must be asked if they support their colleague Max Miller who allegedly threw scalding on water on his wife, violent assaulted her and injured his own child. She filed a restraining order. Read the allegations & ask if they support him.
