dennis hastert was a mass child Rapist and it's awesome he died. i hope it hurt.
Dennis Hastert — the former House speaker who was later sentenced to prison time over hush money payments made to cover up sexual abuse of teen boys — has died at age 84.
I have a hard time taking opinions from someone who wrote the most racist publications since “The White Man’s Burden” seriously…
In @nytopinion.nytimes.com “There is no country that America has gotten as wrong as China,” Robert Kaplan writes.
when I was a much younger man I had a habit of trying to convince conspiracy theorists I met of even crazier theories. if they denied the moon landing, I'd try to convince them the moon itself was a hoax, etc. Starting to worry that might have done lasting harm.
If Republicans in Congress had any self-respect, they’d impeach and convict him. He perjured himself on the record, and that perjury got him confirmed, and that confirmation resulted in policy changes that any reasonable person could link to childhood deaths. But this is Trump’s Republican Party is.
RFK Jr. told Congress the trip to Samoa had “nothing to do with vaccines.” Newly revealed documents tell a very different story. #Pinks 🌸 #USDemocracy www.theguardian.com/us-news/2026...
In 1971, Daniel Ellsberg leaked The Pentagon Papers exposing the lies told to the public about the disastrous Viet Nam war, forever becoming a hero in history. Now... someone PLEASE leak #TheEPSTEINFiles & end the biggest coverup scandal of all-time! 🙏
Every vote to confirm Todd Blanche as attorney general is a vote to continue the coverup of the Epstein Files.
Ok, this is an elected representative. How can he be this stupid? It's been precedent for 150 years! 🤣🤣🤣😎
Everything about the current American administration is Crooked and Weird…..
I voted for Kamala Harris in spite of her support for the genocide. That was my Vote Blue No Matter Who moment. I don’t wanna hear a damn word about Graham Platner being too much for anybody. We make compromises sometimes. Compromises on very difficult things. This is politics. Grow up.
President Obama: “We pulled it off without firing a missile. We got 97% of their enriched uranium out. There’s no dispute that it worked and we didn’t have to kill a whole bunch of people or shut down the Strait of Hormuz.”
It’s almost like… every state the congress considered to be worth targeting was… worth targeting.
Breaking news: Alabama and Tennessee, two Republican-controlled states, took steps to redraw their congressional maps as party leaders try to capitalize on the Supreme Court’s decision this week to weaken the Voting Rights Act.
Justice Elena Kagan Isn't Mincing Words, About The Voting Rights Act........
Call me ageist if you want, but I believe that a guy who can’t stay awake during an on camera press event shouldn’t be able to make world-altering decisions…
The FBI Director, the DC US Attorney, and the Secretary of Defense walk into a bar. Apparently like every day.
Huh… still no drag queens eh? It’s almost like every accusation is a confession for these monsters.
Another Jan. 6 rioter pardoned by President Trump will plead guilty in a separate case involving child exploitation of multiple victims, according to federal court records.
Stick 'em all in one resolution, with one or down vote. Let's see who actually believes in standards of decency versus scoring bullshit partisan political points.
NEW: Dems set to force a vote to expel Tony Gonzales next week in response to Luna's vote to expel Eric Swalwell, leadership aides tell @axios.com If these pass it could trigger a chain reaction, per sources, with votes targeting Cherfilus-McCormick + Mills. www.axios.com/2026/04/11/e...
I think staffing airport screening stations with incompetent, anti-social vigilantes who murder strangers isn’t ideal.
Driving back to Florida for what I hope is the last time. Moving to Philadelphia in late April! 😀
I assure you that if I, a liberal college professor, had the ability to indoctrinate my students: they would read and follow instructions at a far higher rate than is currently observed. If I was *really* good at it, they might also read the syllabus.
