Not all billionaires are equal.
I don't agree with Bloomberg on a lot of things but his intentions are generally good and unlike Shultz he actually understands our political system. I'm glad people are telling Mr. Starbucks to sit down and get out of the way.
The content this thread craves, shirtless bernie in 80s soviet russia for his honeymoon
edit: wow, I had bought into the fake news that he actually spent his honeymoon in USSR. They joked about it being their honeymoon because of the timing, but it was actually part of a sister city program:

I actually rather hope they hand it off. Stone will be just as likely to go to jail, and it'll take the wind out of his sails when it comes to him portraying himself as a martyr bucking the system against Mueller.
The initial DCCC target list is out

I do this and I didn't even realize it.
But for a humorous example, I once did it with a guy who was the boyfriend of one of my wife's coworkers when we were out to karaoke. Said it "just wasn't his thing" despite liking sci-fi a fair amount. He also sang country-rock for his turn at the mic.
I did end up fb friending him, and to my surprise, he posts anti-Trump stuff 24/7.
Either I need to tune my whistles, or there's just some people they don't work on!
Trump wisely picked to run as Republican not as a independent or Democrat. Republican party base is braindead.
See the post above yours and lol no it's not. We were experiencing a thaw with the USSR anyway during that time.
Cool video.
Trump captured his intended base pretty much immediately. He WAS treated like a joke (myself included) for a while even while he led early primary polls by double digits. That was part of the joke! We thought.
Schultz is just doing a crowd dive with no one to catch him.
The media did treat Trump like the joke he was. That was part of his appeal to the one gigantic sliver of media who didn't -- 'they think you're a joke too, poor white racists.'
The answer is in the middle. Every child asylum seeker gets to flip a coin. Heads, you get citizenship. Tails, you get the cage.
To be fair, I have not and don't want to watch "The Handmaid's Tale" mainly because I"m anxious over real life enough that I don't really want to put myself through a depressing too-close-to-possible dystopian drama.
Love seeing all that offense in TX. Even if Beto's not on the ticket, I think we get one or two of those districts due to shifting demographics
Surprised but not totally at IN-05. Brooks's margin fell pretty far against a nobody. Did Donnelly carry it or come close?
I have Pete King on retirement watch. All four statewide Democrats carried NY-02.
I'd remove if NY-27 and CA-50 if they have new incumbents by November 2020. We won't get them without scandals.
He can read the tea leaves when he wants to.
Plus he knows it won't pass.
Yes!!! Includes my district TX-22. Pete Olson is utter garbage for how diverse his district is. Refuses to hold any town halls.
Does that mean they think they will hold Lizzie's district just fine?
Shocked to see his name. I think McConnell will bring it to a vote out of respect for him
Just got an email from Bernie
🤔
I really quite dislike that Bernie essentially says "the big media elite are out to get us! They will stop at nothing! Be scared and give me money because I alone am the guy... if I run again." I don't want more politicians who talk about the media like its a shady hit squad. It has significant problems but this just feels like "Fake News!" all over again.
April Ryan gets her revenge.
Graham supported the Mueller protection bill last year but Turtle still didn't bring it to the floor.
It just includes targeted GOP districts, not incumbents we want to protect. Of course they're doing that, too.
I surmise that TX-07 and 32 will be fairly easy to hold in 2020, however.
There was a good Brookings piece a while back on how, like Medicine, you kinda need some level of fees w/ Education.
*starts laughing uncontrollably*
I'm sorry. we've seen how much McConnell cares about anyone not named Donald Trump.
Who's the guy in the right? This really doesn't work when one person actually has the tatoo in the cartoon.
If that entire DCCC target list, in a total fever dream that will never occur, were flipped the Dem house would be veto-proof. Of course, in such an outlandish scenario there's no need since a Dem would absolutely sweep into the Oval Office, but having some margins for legislation would be grand.
Working in higher education across a few campuses, debt-free is probably the better bet for a whole host of reasons. Tuition-free would give rise to a ton of workarounds - upping room and board, upping textbook costs, administrative fees - that debt-free would tamp down. It also sounds great while affording a lot of leeway into just what debt-free means - is it repaid on work plans? Does it require community college first?
