The news out of North Korean is frightening. But I'm sure we'll be hearing more about "fake news" and patting himself on the back from the president instead.

Hi, normally I post elsewhere. But I feel like I’m losing my mind. Purposefully making higher ed harder to obtain while at the same time trying to make it possible to restrict information via the internet has me feeling like we’re headed to 1984-land.

If anyone needs to feel better about life at the moment, the new Avengers Infinity War trailer dropped and it's kind of amazing:
I know it's not politics related but dammit I needed something nice today.

I know every week of this administration has been bad. But this week feels really bad. I unfriended two FB friends that I know voted for Trump this morning. That made me feel slightly better. lol

Greg Harper is saying those claims that were posted, may not be sexual harassment. or 'all' of them. Some of them could be for things like asbestos...in 2007.
um ok dude.
How is it the private sector reacts more swiftly than the fucking government. We need to note every single denier on the hill and vote them out, if they aren't going to resign.

And I know there's simply too much news right now but truly, try to find 5 minutes to read Adam Goldman and Charlie Savage's piece on the Benghazi verdict.

So off the rails.

Huh. Senator Kennedy told a reporter he's going to vote against Brett Talley's confirmation to the bench. I'm pleasantly shocked

I keep hoping that if I smack my head on my desk enough I'll knock myself out and wake up with Obama president...Michelle Obama. Or Harris. (Please please please please please) |

I saw a video clip on twitter of a Senator (I think Sherrod) eviscerating the tax bill and it made my heart flutter.

SHS stated on Fox that it didnt matter if the actual video was real. That these things are happening regardless of the veracity of the video itself.

Just kidding. I read it. I had not heard a single thing about that recently. Admittedly, I have been in and out of the news loop lately. |
