Was watching documentaries about the 2009 crash... how good does Bush look now compared this plum, wow Imagine Trump trying to deal with that I was watching an interview a while back talking to Bush and Clinton together, and how they’ve become good friends since 2008, and both have a lot of respect...

Someone went to the bother of asking an intern to mark up this graphic. Purely to stick it in this article and show just how stupid of a question it was.

Remember when Trump suggesting the US buy Greenland and Sen insisted it was a good idea worth considering? Ah it's nostalgia time.

The Dems probably felt they had no choice but to go for impeachment but it's in their best interest really to allow Trump to stay in politics. Guy would tear the GOP apart. Nah. Sure some may leave.

Quite clear from the impeachment debate they'd move Right with Trumpism.

I suspect the irony for that map is all the places numbered in the UK had loads of EU money given to them. Eh? The UK was a massive net contributor to the EU. Ergo, any EU money sent back to the UK was recycled from what we sent them (minus their cut). But that 350m/wk is supposed to go to the NHS,...

Can't see support for a generic 'green new deal' translating into a credible bid for the presidency. If it did Howie Hawkins would've had more support than 0.26% this past election. Jo Jorgensen only got 1.2%, so I guess cutting taxes and regulations is a non-starter as a platform, too. Relatively,...

Rely on the youth vote, tried and true strategy. It’s a viable strategy for a young politician with a secure district and a long career ahead of her.

On the “Speaker has been moved” tweet, other reps have posted that they were instructed to not even contact their own families to tell where they were. It’s the equivalent in a spy movie of someone whispering into his cuff-link radio that “Matt Damon is on the move.”
