I love that they decide to finally ban outright nazis from Twitter and Facebook begins to realize that it's overrun with misleading right-wing psyops sites a week after we end up electing a fascist president

Good job guys, we really dodged a bullet there

Jones has three children with former "Daily Show" correspondent Samantha Bee. He went on to complain about what he called "rhetoric" from some parents that, he thought, suggested those opposing the move are "terrified" of having their school relocate to a building near a housing project. He called that characterization, "dishonest at best and slanderous at worst."

"So I urge you A, to stop talking to the press," he continued. "This is a private matter, I think, from our community. This story doesn't exist without your quotes."

Jones would know a thing or two about using quotes. His segments on "The Daily Show" often skewered regular folks and politicians by catching them making hypocritical statements, especially when the subject was gay marriage or defenders of the Washington Redskins' team name.

Jones complained about another quote by a parent who suggested their high-performing school would change if it moved near the housing project. He said that showed little respect for the teachers.

"So just be mindful of when you speak, if you're going to speak to the press, because slandering or saying anything negative about this teaching staff is wrong," he added. "Conversely, painting any opposition as classist or racist is about as bad as it can get."

he, like any good father, just thinks the fact that he and his very progressive wife are basically leading the charge against keeping ~those people~ away from their precious children is a private matter that no one really should talk about. It's a privacy matter and really isn't that the most important thing?

The most recent one was 5 people Matt, Will, Felix, Amber and Conor Kilpatrick as a guest. Worked fine. Amber and Virgil will be rotating in the 4th chair so it doesn't seem both will be on every episode.

It was 6, Matt Karp was there too

and?
it would be cool if an episode with six people were 80-90 mins instead of 60 (imo anyway), but yeah this last one was fine if a bit rushed

and yes, the regular group will now be four people, so the average episode will probably have five total (including the guest)

I just listened to the most recent free episode and I jump a bit Matt said the Republicans were one state legislature away from having the necessary "2/3" to force through constitutional amendments. Fortunately the threshold is 3/4 and they're more like 6 away.

That thought sent a loving chill down my spine though.

They only need 2/3 to call a constitutional convention, but then it takes 3/4 at the convention to ratify any amendments.

I dunno, sounds like it could be the huge clusterfuck the Republicans hang themselves with. What would they even call it for? Balanced budget amendment?

Paul Ryan is has fantasies about bringing back property requirements for voting.

The religious right would probably want fetuses to have a constitutional right to life.

The beautiful thing about that is that once abortion rights are written out of the constitution, the religious right will start going for democrats like they've always said they would :)

Restrict the franchise to property holders. Voting share scales with property. Voters are now called shareholders. Voting rights can be delegated to fund managers.

All women now legally referred to as "Of-$husbandname"

Abortion has always been a proxy for women's liberation. Those voters aren't turning into liberals once Roe is overturned.
