Lieu's my rep and he takes some bad votes sometimes. I have no idea why - his seat's so safe that he doesn't even need to campaign.

Democrats also won in 2020, a thing that seems to get lost in this discussion. Whatever one's personal feelings about "Defund the police", Dems objectively won the presidency, senate, and house that year, and won a bunch in swing states, so it's hard to say it was disastrous.

My kid's school district, which stayed virtual longer than almost everybody and had some of the strictest COVID protocols in the country, just had its highest test scores ever, a thing that no media outside of L.A. will ever mention: www.lausd.org/site/default...

About 1/3 of the population rents. 20% of the population lives in rural areas, and somehow we have to have discourse about people in rural areas constantly.

Always like to remind people that, in addition to the Clinton situation and serving on Epstein's defense team, Starr resigned in disgrace as Chancellor of Baylor University for covering up multiple campus sexual assaults for years. It was a massive scandal at my alma mater.

the vast majority of people will cover for the one they actually know. And you don't even have to give them a private jet ride to an island - they'll do it for free.

So many serial sexual predators are just some guy, and yet the networks and institutions around them cover for them - over and over and over again. We like to think there's some massive, unprecedented conspiracy, but the truth is that while everyone hates the rapist or child molester in their head

Absolutely no excuse for Schiff to keep doing this. He can comfortably win reelection forever without a single GOP voter.

There are other candidates in the primary who are not Janet Mills! The primary is eight months away - surely it is possible to find another candidate who does not have a Nazi tattoo.

I was just saying to my husband this morning how weird it is that she is completely MIA and no one in the media even mentions it. You'd think the fact that the First Lady lives in a different state from the President and is doing no First Lady things would be newsworthy.

I'm VERY confident that if any Democrat demolished the entire east wing of the White House, not a single media outlet would be worried about the "full context."

Fair enough - I live in L.A., where a lot of places would turn you down. I imagine the mix would be different in Twentynine Palms or Oceanside or even Huntington Beach. (And you could definitely get a Nazi tattoo even in L.A. if you knew where to go.)

I don't know how it works in Croatia, but in the U.S. you can't just go get a Nazi tattoo at your friendly neighborhood tattoo studio. Most tattoo artists won't do Nazi shit because a bunch of Nazis in your studio is bad for business. You have to know where to go.
