None of these people who stuck by him when he was using the proper dog whistles deserve an ounce of praise. King is their sacrifice to claim they’ve burned the racism from the party, and a lot of people are going to accept that.

King is a white supremacist, he'll never roll over for this. He believes that power is his by birthright because he was born superior. He's playing ball with performative punishment for the moment, but he'll be a one-man Mexican Standoff with the rest of the Rs in a second if he thinks he'll face any REAL consequences for what he said.

(Also looking at things, in the extremely-hypothetical universe where Obama wins Dick Durbin's seat, could he then not be elected President Pro Tem, or would he just be skipped? I am fully aware this is a silly procedural rules question).

He can be president pro tem, but the line of succession would skip over him if it came to that. He cannot be Vice President.

there is absolutely nothing exciting about Tester's demeanor or presentation here, but if I were the guy on the stand i'd have staggered away sobbing by around minute three

Instead of building a wall would it be easier to just replicate a series of West Virgiana's on the Mexican border? Immigrants would walk in, see it, and just walk back.

It's gotten to the point where it just seems like Republicans are projecting literally everything. They've also been bitching about Foreigners Murdering Your Children, so now I'm worried that there is some weird loving White Republican Rich Person Safari where they are going into Mexico and just straight murdering children in drive-bys from out of their Big Black SUVs.

Like it is going to turn out that Mitch McConnell has been hanging out with Mexican Cartel Bosses slaughtering poor Mexican kids for fun

This wouldn't be in the slightest bit surprising

I remember a Jack Reacher book where the plot was a bunch of rich boys went out to the border at night to murder, rape and torture people crossing the border and were never caught

That commercial is so loving good, it is “the carousel” levels of amazing marketing. It almost rebrands them entirely in a pretty profound way, and might actually make me buy their product.

Lol that the fucks they are calling out are acting so disappointingly predictably.

Your phrase is sort of bullying them tho so I’d doubt they’d do it.
