The Senate's most despicable lackey for the Likud Party goes on Fox News to lay the intellectual groundwork for war with Iran. Sen. Chris Coons (D-Del.) among those who might…

Trump is right about one thing and one thing only. China is kicking our ass. Read this nonsense from 1994 about what was supposed to happen in China and have a good laugh, or a good cry depending on your mood.

President Clinton Thursday reversed course on China and renewed its trade privileges despite what he said was Beijing's lack of significant progress on human rights. Echoing the case made by George Bush when he was president, Clinton said he was convinced the Chinese would take more steps to improve human rights if the issue were separated from the threat of trade sanctions. "This decision offers us the best opportunity to lay the basis for long-term sustainable progress on human rights and for the advancement of our other interests with China," he said at a news conference announcing his decision to extend China's most-favored-nation (MFN) trade status.

Democrats, especially those running for president or re-election, are demanding impeachment -- not of Trump, but of Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanaugh, based on his lies to the Senate about…

I'm running for office because the system is broken, and we need to fix it. Our education system is unfair, and too many of us cannot afford the rising costs of housing and healthcare. It's time to make the system work for US. Go to http://MadinahforDelaware.com to get involved! #netDE

Wilson-Anton is a legit challenger who has already built support outside of and within the Democratic Party.

Democrats (like Bill Clinton, Tom Carper and Chris Coons) turned the Democratic Party away from a party  interested in workers and the poor in order to form a hegemonic voting…

Even though McGuiness is only nominally a Democrat, this kind of thing reflects badly on every Democrat. There is no way this should be allowed to continue and it shouldn't just disappear without a public rebuke from the Governor.

When people say dumb fucking shit like "I never owned slaves" to me, I ask them. "What's the longest you've ever stood in line to vote?" If you are white the answer is typically maybe a half hour. I've never waited longer than ten minutes. If you are black the answer could be "all day and into the night." American mistreatment of slaves has never ended. We've run a "war on drugs" as a pretext to mistreat the grandchildren of enslaved Africans. We put heavy industry in the neighborhoods of African Americans. And now we are closing polling places where the decedents of slaves reside.

Democratic dithering over their sort-of impeachment inquiry is being used against them by the Trump Department of Justice, which is arguing Congress doesn't deserve to see grand jury testimony from…

SCOTT LEMIEUX at LGM points out that the pundit consensus was that Biden "won" the debate. But that consensus is a departure from the consensus of actual voters. (Actual voters…

A large part of the right-wing argument against gun sanity hinges on the idea that gun owners will be justified in killing cops if gun laws change.

JUAN WILLIAMS (CO-HOST): He said it, right there -- "You know what? If you have a gun that's made for the battlefield, you shouldn't have it in your home," and he explained his position. I think that's -- not only you saw the response from the audience, Dana, the other people on stage all said Beto, you did a great job. JESSE WATTERS (CO-HOST): So, you think that people going door to door, taking legally purchased weapons is a good idea? WILLIAMS: No, no, no. I think -- look, that's fear mongering, talking about "Oh, you gotta go door to door" -- WATTERS: -- Because that's actually going to cause more violence. ... WATTERS: This is going to cost more lives than mass shootings would cost. WILLIAMS: No, come on -- WATTERS: You're kidding me? You are going to go to people and say, "Hey, hand it over, give it the hell to me?"

So...Gun sanity will result in dead cops, so we must keep the laws as they are. While Chris Coons doesn't like ruffling the feathers of gun radical snowflakes, Beto did a great job getting these bloodthirsty motherfuckers on the record.

Whoever the Democrats nominate, he/she better be an experienced litigator with a steel trap mind and the stamina of an Olympic marathoner.

It’s also whether Biden or indeed other Democrats are prepared for the massive onslaught of absolutely brutal and distortive attacks that Trump and his propaganda apparatus will wage on this particular front — attacks that you can be certain will include all sorts of shamelessly propagandistic media manipulation and outright disinformation tactics.

I’m not talking about electability I’m talking about endurance.
