Way long time liberal Democrat. Retired IT professional. Big time fan of Rachel Maddow and Lawrence O’Donnell. Still love Seinfeld, which I say is a show about everything.

Susan Collins announcing she'll vote against a controversial nominee is basically the moment it becomes clear that nominee will be confirmed. It means Thune has enough votes to confirm, and thus, Collins gets a pass to look independent.

Israel said the war was about the hostages. All 251 were returned by January 26, 2026. Hamas hasn’t fired a rocket into Israeli territory since April 2025. Sixteen months. Israeli strikes on Gaza haven’t stopped for a single day. So what is their excuse now?

Super 👏 rich 👏 people 👏 shouldn't 👏 be 👏 able 👏 to 👏 buy 👏 elections 👏 Feels like this should be obvious in a democracy, but apparently our current campaign finance laws say otherwise. We need to overhaul the system and fix what's broken!

Todd Blanche violated the law by orchestrating the lack of release of the Epstein files. His sweetheart deal with Maxwell is questionable also. I guess it makes sense considering we have a 34 times felon as President, for fraud.

German courts have decided it is not against the law to call Israel a Nazi state. I want you to take a minute and consider to what degree you need to get German courts to agree to that, in a country where the Nazi salute gets you arrested. Israel is a Nazi state. It is committing genocide.
