The despicable ways in which conservatives have gone all in to defend that bloated carcass of a man are unforgivable. They should never be forgiven, there is no "reaching across the aisle," there is no redemption. They should be chastised and shunned until they are gone from the earth.

This is great. I did it. Took me a minute. Thanks Rachel.
If you want to do something about the Epstein files but calling a congressperson's office sounds intimidating, I turned my personal prep into a cheat-sheet on H.R. 4405 (aka the Epstein Files Transparency Act) so you can feel more prepared.

Authoritarian parties can only succeed when the pro-democracy parties fail to fight for working people.

Huge night for democrats and democracy tonight. As we celebrate, though, we need to plan forward. We need to avoid complacency, and to be ready for inevitable backlash from Trump and the GOP. We’ll need to work to turn this step forward into the next. Onward.

No Kings Denver speaker Joe Salazar (fmr Dem state rep) tells me they estimate 25-30k gathered in Denver today, similar to the No Kings protest earlier this year. This view is from photographer Cheney Orr for the New York Times. #copolitics

Ahhhh. Old Chicago!
Oct. 18, 1975 and as Bowie’s Fame plays in the family wood-paneled station wagon my thoughts turn to Sunday’s Bears game to live and die with my new hero, rookie Walter Payton. I’m also lobbying yet again for my folks to take us to the new indoor amusement park that sounded too good to be true #AT40

"We have a rising new Dem star who really engages with people, and is sure to win their next election."
DEM LEADERSHIP: That's fantastic.
"What are the next steps?"
DEM LEADERSHIP: Simple. Force them to step aside and throw their support behind this 80-year-old lifetime politician.

You forgot liar. Sorry.
I can’t believe such a wretched, morbidly obese, drug addicted, deviant, illiterate, sexual predator found the secret sauce to turn half our country into absolute lunatics. Turning a blind eye daily to the most rampant corruption in American history as they genuflect before him.

Colbert and Kimmel should run for the presidency and vice-presidency. Two very happily married family men, quick on their feet, intelligent and brave enough to use their gifts of comedy to speak truth to power so that everyone hears it. Kimmel's quote about Kirk? None: people.com/what-did-jim...
