Maddow is the left leaning Hannity for those just becoming aware of her.

with the exception that the crazy left wants everyone to have puppies while the crazy right wants to murder puppies

saying x is the left/right wing version of x is a lovely comparison considering that one extreme of our political spectrum is crazy hippies that won't want vaccinations and the other wants an ayn rand dystopian future

The problem with this country is not that the left is idealistic and the right is nefarious, it's that both sides are partisan and refuse to work with each other to come to a sensible conclusion that eliminates the idealism of both fringes.

Yeah, though, continue to scream "not as bad!" as we circle the drain.

gently caress you, you're the one comparing Maddow to people that promote ignorance. You're comparing embellishment to outright loving lies. Unless there is some fringe poo poo on the left making up facts wholesale there is no loving comparison between left and right wing news sources and talk show hosts.

I legit hope spicer remains secretary for as long as Trump is president because I want the constant stress to kill him. I hope he dies of a god drat heart attack 10 years from now. I hope he is constantly stressed and scared of anything that goes boo until he loving blows his brains out. I hope he becomes a boxed wine alcoholic who mentally breaks down at every family gathering.

So. If someone gets fired for a substance abuse problem, they no longer have the means to support themselves while they enter rehab. So they get another job, repeat until you can't find another or death.

If i am interpreting this correctly, this will literally kill people and make children go hungry.

Since its up to the state, the pain will be concentrated in the red rural areas of trump county. The opioid crises is particularly bad in parts of trump county (plus the northeast). Alabama had more opioid prescriptions written in it than people in 2012. Something like 20% of all people on an opioid prescription >10 days will become addicted.

Unemployment means that you had a job and are (nominally at least) looking to find another. It's like $1600 a month for a year and has been proven as one of the best ways to stimulate the economy. These people aren't freeloaders

There was a huge talk last year about republicans addressing the opioid crises in America and this is honestly one of the worst things I can think of doing to people who can still be saved.

Short of the US invading, how does North Korea fix itself? Coup? Hope Jim Jong-un has no male heirs and then wait for him to die? Wait until everyone literally starves to death then simply repopulate it? Annihilate the entire country after they launch a fizzled nuclear weapon?

How do you fix a failed, rogue state led by a man baby who threatens to throw a nuclear fueled temper tantrum?

I think Trump is too self absorbed to think anything about his subordinates' Russian connections. It may have been happening right under his nose, but I think he was oblivious. And that may ultimately save him.

Trump not being directly involved but everyone else going to jail might be the best outcome. Just let him limp along ineffectively infighting with republicans might be better than pence or Ryan.

I can't help but feel like this is the greatest intel and counter intel op that Russia has ever undertaken.

Yes, worse than their atomic espionage. They've potentially delegitimized and infiltrated an entire branch of our Government, completely, and they probably own a few congress critters too. Nunes, for instance.

That's loving astonishing. It's all out in the open too for the most part apparently.

Maybe they took no action to cover their tracks because they're stupid and honestly don't believe anything was illegal. Though I seriously doubt that.

Goddamit this whole thing has been really getting under my skin.

I'm willing to bet a lot of the people involved weren't aware of the entire scope. Little favors here and there.

Well my point is that last century saw the end of their empire abroad and this century might see it devolve into nothing more than England plus a few random islands that don't care enough and aren't important enough to push for their own independence given the fact that by the time they won independence they'll likely be little more than a sand bank.

The funny thing is the Queen is gonna wind up with more political power than the government since she is (I think) the only thing really linking together stuff like the Falkland islands and the Cayman islands back to England.
