Michigan GOP would like single, college-educated, white women to stop destroying the country
They’ve done the research: The co-chairwoman of the Michigan Republican Party privately told supporters last month that the party’s long-established donors would rather “lose this whole state” than help GOP candidates because they “hate” former President Donald Trump. Michigan GOP co-chair Meshawn Maddock and her husband, state Rep. Matt Maddock, R-Milford, two faithful Trump supporters, gave […]

What’s the point of having guns if you can’t brandish?
An 18-year-old is now a former freshman at the University of Delaware after he was allegedly seen brandishing a gun on campus in a Snapchat video.
Michael Hearn, Junior was seen with the gun Friday, UD police said.
Possession of firearms, ammunition and other weapons is prohibited on university property under unless campus police OK it, and Hearn, who’s now been “separated” from UD and banned from the campus, is charged with possession of a firearm by a person prohibited, along with several drug offenses.
He also faces further disciplinary action by UD’s Office of Student Conduct, and is currently being held at the Howard Young Prison.
Jan 6 committee refers Donald Trump for criminal prosecution on four counts
Four Republicans referred to House ethics committee for refusing to comply with panel’s subpoenas, including Kevin McCarthy
The four counts of the Trump referrals are for “influencing or impeding an official proceeding of the US government”, “conspiring to defraud the US”, “unlawfully, knowingly or willingly making false statements to the federal government”, and “assisting or engaging in insurrection against the United States”.
The referrals are largely symbolic, as attorney general Merrick Garland will make his own decision on charges at the conclusion of the justice department’s own investigations, headed by special prosecutor Jack Smith.
The panel is also referring four Republican members of Congress to the House ethics committee for refusing to comply with subpoenas, including Kevin McCarthy, the GOP leader who is expected to run for speaker of the House when the party takes control of the chamber next year.
The January 6 committee’s full report is expected to be released today.
On the Mt Rushmore of evil fuckers out to murder our American multicultural democracy, don’t forget Tucker Carlson
Carlson is a demagogue who sneers at America’s heritage as a multicultural nation bound by shared principles like liberty, equality, and democracy. He instead embraces the blood-and-soil nationalism of European autocracies. This radical and reactionary philosophy is swiftly gaining power on the American right, thanks to adherents such as the fascist billionaire Peter Thiel and his pet philosopher Curtis Yarvin and hand-picked Sen.-elect J.D. Vance. Carlson is that movement’s accelerant; he is using his weekday program on Fox and regular specials on its streaming platform, Fox Nation, as well as his influence over the Republican Party, to bring it into the mainstream.

Water? Pfft…We’ll live off tax cuts and bile! The Colorado River’s largest reservoirs stand nearly three-quarters empty, and federal officials now say there is a real danger the reservoirs could drop so low that water would no longer flow past Hoover Dam in two years. That dire scenario — which would cut off water […]
The Jan. 6 committee will take up criminal referrals against Donald Trump
He committed his crimes in the open. The only question has been, will those crimes be shoved down the memory hole for the sake of bipartisanship? The House says, no. The AG may still say Yes. The House Select Jan. 6 Committee will take up criminal referrals against former President Donald Trump on at […]

Trump is done, and that’s ok
I get that we’re nervous about declaring Trump political dead after he having declared him dead so many times in the past. But, trust me. I’m the one person who was right about his chances of beating Hillary Clinton, so I have some standing. He is politically dead. Or if you don’t trust me, trust […]
Comment Rescue – Does the Democratic Party Ever Lead on Anything?
This is a question from a new commenter – John D Sykes. It is a good one and one that we forget to ask: (O)utside of registration and voting, do the Party leaders activate our rank and file to take public stands on issues such as the state’s climate action plan? I’m thinking of instances […]
Inflation Hawk Logic
We still need to raise interest rates to curb the demand for houses and cars, in order to slow overall economic growth, and increases unemployment. That will in turn reduce demand across the economy, and potentially lower prices on household staples. And if raising rates doesn’t accomplish that it will at least impoverish people and […]
I’d say Trump’s campaign for Pres is going pretty good
Trying to come up with something that is utterly worthless but can be sold to suckers for $99.00 is no small feat. It takes a campaign/business genius to pull that off.
The Best Sam Bankman-Fried/FTX Explainer Ever
