Why do you think they were asking for specific names of climate change people and those fighting for civil rights? This is the poo poo that is going to be happening the next four years with Trump or Pence at the top and was the plan from the getgo if they got both houses of congress and the presidency.

No, 12 new ones, but I'm seeing a $128 billion price tag now and not the 350 like I saw earlier.

In what context? Yeah when referenced as 1488 or 14-88 it's a reference to the "14 words" which is an old white supremacist saying about securing a future for our white children or some such horseshit.

In other words, yeah, Nazis.

Yeah, "We must secure the existence of our people and a future for white children."

Edit: ah, didn't see the Ann Coulter tweet. Pretty sure the woman just can't math and is trying to count down the days to the inauguration of her orange Jesus.

At this point they'd only lose Comstock and (big) maybe Wittman's seat.


If poo poo keeps up though, Comstock is definitely going to be on her way out in 2018.

Therein lies the problem. The house of representatives is basically gerrymandered to the point where the democratic party just simply cannot win a majority of seats. A non-trivial number of state houses are also rigged. Of the 33 senators up for re-election, 24 are democrats (if you count Bernie), 1 independent from Maine, and 8 republicans from Arizona, Mississippi, Nevada, Nebraska, Tennessee, Texas, Wyoming, and Utah.

Lindsey Graham dropping :iceburn:s

quote:

“The point of this hearing is to have the intelligence community reinforce, from their point of view, that the Russians did this,” Graham said. “You seem to have two choices now — some guy living in an embassy, on the run from the law for rape, who has a history of undermining American democracy and releasing classified information to put our troops at risk, or the 17 intelligence agencies sworn to defend us. I’m going with them.”

On the same day that we found out companies are making sure people wake up at 3am just to make sure someone's reading his Twitter account. He read something from the WSJ and got mad.

Also, very obviously a distraction from McCain's hearings.

His Pivot started with getting a real tech briefing on San Bernardino and picked up steam when he played pool with Trevor Noah on the Daily Show. His recovery is as fast as most cancer patients so there is still hope he'll come back from stage III ringism's disease.
