You are hypocritical racist creep who is no more Christian than I am Martian.
But you know that.

You're a Martian?
That does explain some things.

Exactly how did Time get their transposition of a young toddler crying in anguish over the criminal arrest of her mother against the person who ordered the incarceration of aliens seeking asylum miss the mark?

Did Time write an article therein that stated this particular toddler was forcibly separated from her mother and incarcerated into a concentration of similarly situated children into camps comprised of locked and guarded, chain linked fenced enclosed forced separation facilities?

Or have you made a series of assumptions without factual support?

CNN even called out the BS.
"concentration camps"?
Please.

Anyone with a brain can see this is pure political propaganda.

"Vote against the GOP this November"

I’ve no intent to read Will’s long winded tome. Am I right to assume this life long conservative Republican wants a Democrat majority House, if not Senate as well, come November? If so, yet another patriot with whom I hold general political philosophical differences that in our current era I couldn’t agree more.

It's not that long, and it ends (more or less) with this --

In today’s GOP, which is the president’s plaything, he is the mainstream. So, to vote against his party’s cowering congressional caucuses is to affirm the nation’s honor while quarantining him. A Democratic-controlled Congress would be a basket of deplorables, but there would be enough Republicans to gum up the Senate’s machinery, keeping the institution as peripheral as it has been under their control and asphyxiating mischief from a Democratic House.​
 
In other news: NK still has nukes, and still will when Trump leaves office.

In other news: I still have no takers on any bet otherwise.

Seriously, really. Even what you’ve summarized I’m not willing to devote to reading. Does Will want a Demo HR / Senate or not? Reagan was lampooned for wanting succinct memos. But at least if that were true, he actually read them and came to considered decisions. A nostalgic era, from today’s perspective.

I won’t watch Maddow in real time anymore. She spends 47 minutes leading up to her 3 minutes of making her point. A good point, mind you. But 47 minutes of wasted time for me. But I only watch her on days when Trump and company have already done something even lower in ethical and/or illegal conduct worse than the previous week’s limbo dance. Best on a Thursday.

I watch some of the youtube snippets, which usually contain the "points".

Are there easily searchable “points” she makes? I’d love the search terms rather than fast forwarding? But truly, I don’t watch much TV, other than Netflix and Amazon. One can go weeks without and cable news and no really miss anything new.

I’m just waiting, if ever, for open, live, impartial, substantive, conclusive, Watergate-style select joint House/Senate committee hearings on Emoluments/Russia.

If he has a good plea-bargain lawyer, he will trade resignation and probation on the emoluments charge to avoid the penalties for treason.

It’s not a legal bargaining issue. It’s whether Pence has an an actual set of testicles to not preemptively pardon him.

Although it seems now that a preemptive pardon (vis a vis Ford) may not have been a constitutionally sound act after all. Yet no one in 1974 had the stomach to press the issue.

The inertia might be such that Pence would be impeached for that act alone. Even more interesting would be the timing - would this happen at a time when the Speaker was a Democrat?

People at the time were happy to see Nixon gone, and didn't expect much better from Jerry "where's my helmet?" Ford.

Speaker in 74 was a Democrat. Albert? But then 1/3 of Democrats were southern conservatives still. FDR’s extraordinary coalition still intact, but faltering, as I witnessed first hand as a congressional aide back in that era. Man was DC different back then.

Pence seems like wildcard. His lickspiddlery is unnaturally disturbing. I think he would pardon, if that situation arose, but wouldn’t be impeached for doing so.

Today, plenty of state criminal charges against Trump in NY would likely follow, outside the pardon range to hold him criminally accountable.

That’s humor? You’ve been waiting Gutfeld, haven’t you?

Humour is subjective, but some jokes are objectively below the threshold of even grin. You should try stealing jokes from professionals. Isn’t that old SNL guy Miller still considered funny? Try some of his material.
