The Republican Party is now led by Nazis. There is only one rule now-
Never help the Nazis
Never vote to confirm their people. Never allow unanimous consent. Never. Never. Never. There is no bipartisan anymore. There is just helping Nazis or not helping Nazis.

the nuzzi story is fun and all but at the center of it is the elevation of a man who has dedicated his life to making children catch preventable diseases to a position where he can enact harm at enormous scale
CDC has overhauled its website to assert that “the claim ‘vaccines do not cause autism’ is not an evidence-based claim”

I think the President of the US responding to a question about the murder of a journalist with "A lot of people didn't like that gentleman" is probably pretty bad.

Trump suggests Khashoggi had it coming: "You're mentioning someone that was extremely controversial. A lot of people didn't like that gentleman that you're talking about. Whether you like him or didn't like him, things happen. But he knew nothing about it. You don't have to embarrass our guest."

I feel like “Quiet Piggy” should be the only thing decent people say to Trump supporters from now on.
I’m not going to pretend it’s easy to say something in the moment when you witness the president do this and you’re aboard Air Force One with all the uniformed officers and secret service and fancy wood accents, but this is really an instance where you should. people.com/donald-trump...

"The message is not that Trump is innocent, it's that *everyone is guilty.* Everyone assaults women, cheats on their taxes, uses public office for private gain. Propriety and following the rules? That stuff is for suckers. In a world of grift and graft, the most corrupt man should be king."

The Republican president is a pedophile who has doubled my healthcare costs and let scores of violent criminals out of jail. But a Democratic mayor-elect wants to make busses free in a city I don't live in. I have never felt more politically homeless.

I’m not clear why this administration didn’t just release an “Epstein list” written in Sharpie with just
Democratic names on it.

I was considering trying to replace one of the bulbs outside of my garage while my wife was out, but falling off a ladder on my uneven driveway seemed like a pretty embarrassing way to go. My daughter could potentially hold it, but I think she is actually glued to the couch today. 😀

Anyone who has ever tried to buy healthcare directly knows that there are a lot of things that need to change in the system before it would be even remotely feasible. Something your insurance company pays $100 for is somehow $1000 when you’re paying directly.
All it took was a government shutdown to get Trump to move closer to a single payer universal health care system.

I don't think people fully realize how brutal a vise Republicans are in now. If they cave tomorrow Democrats get all the credit for giving people healthcare. If they somehow bypass the filibuster they get a year plus of headlines about ripping people's healthcare away.
"Republicans are keeping the government closed, starving kids, and making you miss your Thanksgiving flights because they want your healthcare costs to go through the roof" is actually a pretty effective message for Democrats
