A lady in Florida was just convicted to (I believe) 3 years in jail for threatening to kill a dad of a Sandy Hook kid. I wonder how that conspiracy theorist feels now that she's a crisis actor used to discredit the Sandy Hook conspiracy.

I'm in jail because it wasn't true -> that's what they want you to say They have me on trumped up charges and everyone is in on it -> they're hiding an even bigger conspiracy Help get me out -> you're just an actor and they're trying to find who to go after next

I am going to guess Fox News did not cover this as they usually do Today was the National March for marriage led by NOM. A few years ago the march brought in around 2,000. Last year was about 200.

The latter openly fought for truth, justice, and the American way because he wanted to give back to the planet that had given him a home. The former was a confused vigilante, motivated by the dark desire to revenge his parents’ deaths at the hands of bad guys.

I remember watching that first Comey testimony about Clinton emails and being astonished at how the Republican Congressmen were treating him. Thinking, how are they doing him like this, as he tries to throw them bone after bone but it just isn't crazy enough for them. Let them all eat each other. Let the respectable, old school Republicans get consumed by the young psychopaths who'll say anything to stave off a tea party primary. The Democrats are too pathetic to destroy them, let them destroy each other.

Maybe the new thing to be afraid of getting primaried over will be "I'm gonna get to the bottom of this Russia stuff" if it goes on that long without a real consequence for the administration. It's probably be a theme for both parties but if it becomes a toxic enough issue, the republicans who are looking the other way because they're complicit will be the last holdouts with regards to actually doing something about it. They'd be stuck between calling for an investigation that could land them in prison and a challenger calling for that investigation, from the right even.

I think McCain's questions for Sessions during that testimony were telling. He may have had the snarkiest, nastiest questions of all of them. Sure, he interrupts Kamala Harris like an rear end in a top hat. He's not asking the questions the left wants to hear like Heinrich or some of the Democrats, but there was an edge to what he was asking Sessions. He was playing an admirable Brutus, noble while still putting the knife in. That's the infighting I want to see.

That seems pretty plausible even if trump has already been impeached by then somehow. Or if he hasn't. My guess is that the raving trumpist will win.

I love that cartoon because the first bits of it are mellow, informative, and make some great points but then it takes a flying leap into crazy land without warning. Just when you think it couldn't get more "crazy lolbertarian" it somehow does.

I think they're finally giving up on gay marriage honestly. You'll have a few holdouts that are going to scream about it until the end of time but most of the right seems to have dropped it. A few places are trying to dick all over trans rights now for appearances (we'll never give up! Never stop fighting the good fight!) but really...they failed all the way to the SCOTUS. Crap all they can do now.

Anti gay marriage activism was only as effective as it was because it was based on a massive scare campaign that Christianity would be banned, straight people would be put into camps, churches would be forced to host gay orgies, and the schools would make all their kids do gay stuff in class. When gay marriage passed and none of that happened, and the only change to anyone's lives were sometimes they might see a friend of a friend comment on gay wedding photos on Facebook, then even most of the dumbest people in America could no longer be driven to hysterical terror that any day now the lesbian brides would be coming for your Christian marriage. So the fundies just shifted to a new scare campaign that all transwomen are rapist men and we have to keep them away from your daughters (but not, apparently, away from your sons).

Yeah, the things that drove anti-gay marriage stuff a decade ago have all shifted to transphobia and islamaphobia. That war is over and most people know that. The holdouts are just sad homophobes who are pissing against time. Most Republicans in my world rejected Trump. Most of those did it for most of the reasons we rejected him. But there were those few whose only true objections to Trump were "he's a secret liberal" and "the RNC was a gay fest." Those are the sad losers at these marches.

Nah. There's just not much point to it since there's no real legislation that can be passed to target it at the moment. "March of Progress" narratives are nonsense and a good way to see a massive backslide of rights due to complacency.

The it thing now is allowing companies to discriminate against LGBT people based on religious exemptions. This is hitting trans people the hardest, but people in same-sex relationships are also vulnerable. The anti-marriage people haven't recognized the strategic shift that's occurred, but anti-gay sentiment has not gone away.

D.C.is like 95% democrat, so republicans have to be really pissed about something to travel 50+ miles to a rally. Hold them in Bumfuck, Texas, and you'll probably get 10x turnout.
