    After Conviction, Trump's stock loses $300 million

    A 5% swing in one day is nothing for this stock. It moves at least that much nearly every day.

    New GOP efforts to make it harder to vote

    Right. You can't deny somebody the right to vote because they're black. You can deny them the right to vote because they're fat or because you think they're ugly.

    New GOP efforts to make it harder to vote

    The US constitution doesn’t afford that right, either.

    8 Republican Senators vow to block legislation, stonewall nominations, stamp feet angrily

    If Republicans wanted to convince us they were the better people, they could try saying “We’re above this” and then following through on that claim.

    Trump campaign announces over $50 million in fundraising after NY criminal trial verdict

    I wonder what Dave Ramsey’s take on all of this would be. On one hand, throwing away money on a losing politician is obviously a poor financial decision, but OTOH Dave is pretty Trumpy and is okay with people dropping money on things that suit him (e.g. seminars, financial “advisors”). Hmmm

    Trump campaign announces over $50 million in fundraising after NY criminal trial verdict

    What makes you think we don’t understand that? We know he has a lot of fans; we just think they’ve been brainwashed.

    Joe Manchin Quits Democratic Party

    There technically wasn’t a Democrat majority before - there were more Republicans than Democrats, but all the Independents caucus with the Dems (as they will continue to do), so the Dems effectively had the majority.

    Right-wing media figures vow revenge after Trump‘s conviction

    That name does not ring a bell, but there’s no way Trump is doing 136 years for this. IF he gets sentenced to time, then I expect they’d be less than the max and all run concurrently; but I would not be surprised at all if he doesn’t get sentenced to any time at all. I’m not going to defend...

    Trump found guilty on all 34 counts

    They may, but I would advise them to tread lightly, partly because it may blow back and partly because Hunter may have his own problems.

    I think we're ignoring this nonsense from now on.

    Right-wing media figures vow revenge after Trump‘s conviction

    I'm not going to pretend that the hush money case was the most solid or the most damning, but it's not remotely accurate to say that anybody has gone "all in" on it; in fact, it seems to be the one in which everybody was least confident. What it is accurate is that it's the one that's gone to...

    Right-wing media figures vow revenge after Trump‘s conviction

    Perhaps, but at the same time, nobody had really had cause to look at him prior to that, and he hadn't yet committed the crimes for which he is currently being prosecuted. And even now, the things for which he's being prosecuted are painfully obvious. Nobody had to go digging too hard to find...

    Right-wing media figures vow revenge after Trump‘s conviction

    Drawing attention to yourself is always going to make people take a closer look at what you're up to. In Trump's case, not only did his entry into politics draw scrutiny, but it's what prompted his criminal behavior in the first place and it's what made some of those behaviors a felony instead...

    Conviction Ensures Trump Victory

    Yeah, there's a guy known for his reasonable, sensible takes on things.
