Why purist leftists piss me off: The house is on fire; join the bucket brigade. Where were those buckets made? House is on fire. Who's paying the mortgage on the house? People, pets are endangered. Are they shelter pets? It's a 10-alarm now. Did the owners vote center-left? Too late, now, thanks.

I'm not a Michigander, and wasn't taking a strong side either way, but this result speaks to impressive turnout and enthusiasm. Job One is to defeat the Republicans, and Stevens will throw support to El-Sayed. I hope this translates into a win in November.

Mallory McMorrow immediately endorses: “Congratulations to Abdul El-Sayed for winning the Democratic primary to become our nominee to be Michigan’s next US Senator. I’m proud to give Abdul my full endorsement and support as we head to November together as a unified party”

Cornyn: Meet with Epstein victims or else. Blanche: OK, I met with those whiny bitches, happy now? Cornyn: No, rescind the slush fund deal in writing. Blanche: Okay, I wrote a document that sounds good but is actually total BS. Happy now? Tillis: Deal. You got our vote. #FuckCornyn #FuckTillis

Interesting development. Also, re Papa Bernie (quoting article): Asked by reporters on Monday why he had stayed quiet for so long, Sen. Moreno replied: “You know, I hope you never have to go through a situation like this and you wouldn’t ask that kind of f—–g question.” Temper. No excuses, Pops.

There seems to be a trend that if someone was on drugs or alcohol while they spewed vicious racism and antisemitism, they're excused when they become sober, as though that magically eradicates their racism and antisemitism. #MetGala27 #Galliano

Trump has declared his presidency invalid, as he stated that he's not the President of these entire United States; only the red ones. This is more than enough for which to impeach him, let alone all the other shit he's guilty of.

Opinion | Trump’s grip on federal spending is getting dangerously tight

The White House has blatantly denied federal funds to Democratic-led states and wants even more power to deny billions in federal grants to political opponents.

Max Miller's angry statement of denial is so freakin' Trumpian. He hasn't been convicted--yet--but maybe he will be, now that Crappy Father of the Year Moreno has finally denounced him?
