    I hope the House passes it once the Democrats take control, it dies in the Senate, and the Dems campaign on it in 2020. Might make the difference in a place like Florida, with 1.5 million former inmates now allowed to vote and all...

    I heard Trump is not only forgiving the turkey this week, he's also naming the turkey new AG.

    A reminder that our problems didn't begin with Trump: Here's a story about a group of veterans protesting Joe Biden's bestowing of the Liberty Medal to Bush.



    Powerful stuff. To hell with both of them.

    Kind of random but needs to be posted here in light of some of the discussions we have about universal health care, a living wage, and other such policies:

    I can't believe the caravan ate all the turkeys. Trump has no one to pardon, and America has nothing to eat on Thursday. The caravan has ruined Thanksgiving.

    Im expecting Trump to be about to pardon the turkey and end up talking about how instead how he is going to use that pardon on someone who actually needs it. Like some random flunky, or perhaps a handbag designer. After pardoning random person, he will talk about how it is the most beautiful turkey in the country, has the most amount of meat, and is the hugest turkey in America. And so he has to eat it because he gets to as the president. And then on live broadcast he breaks the turkeys neck and lops its head off while smiling.

    The US govt should throw the caravan a giant feast on Thanksgiving and put those 5000 troops to work cooking, making spaces to eat, getting all the dishware, etc. They could also check if anyone needs medical care after their long journey.

    Can't. The US Army would have to invade Mexico first.

    Yeah. I can't tell if it's deliberate, like it seems to be with J-Rod, or if he really doesn't get it.

    Why don't you explain it to me then Professor?

    You seem incapable of even trying to understand someone's else point-of-view, and in fact approach every argument through the lens of white grievance. Given that the dominance of white privilege is a major part of American history (that continues to this day) and inherently involves the exploitation of women and minorities, doing so makes you look disingenuous at best, and clueless at worst.

    I most certainly do. What I don't do is blame white Americans of today for what their ancestors did, Egyptians of today for what their ancestors did to the Israelites, Germans of today for the Holocaust, and so on.

    That overweight, out-of-shape imbecile couldn't snap a turkey's neck with a vice grip. I'd be legitimately surprised if there is anyone in the world who is weaker and more pathetic....both physically and constitutionally. What a complete *****.

    The starred out word starts with a "p" and ends in "ussy."

    Christ....do some cardio at least, you colossal nitwit. Actually, don't. In fact, go eat some more fried chicken and drink a few diet cokes. Idiot.

    I can't believe ANAKINFAN liked this post. I thought she hated when people used female parts to describe weakness because it's Misogynist?

    I don't think feigned disappoint at hypocrisy is a road you should go down, Bobby.
