I think we may end up with Susan Collins again.

He is very clear on separation of church and state. He also points out the hypocrisy of MAGA Christians.

5/ And on the Strait of Hormuz, they had NO PLAN. I can't go into more detail about how Iran gums up the Strait, but suffice it say, right now, they don't know how to get it safely back open.

Which is unforgiveable, because this part of the disaster was 100% foreseeable.

If you’re roughly my age, it’s wild to reflect on the optimism for the future Americans felt when Obama was elected β€” young Americans spontaneously took to the streets to celebrate! β€” and contrast with what we face today. The falloff over the past 18 years is hard to process.

Just saw someone say, basically, "this is your party, shitlib Democrats" with a quoted post by Lindsey Graham and it really makes me think a lot of the "both parties are the same" stuff comes from a place of even more profound ignorance than we suspect

you rubes. you complete and utter fools. anyone with a brain can see this is a multidimensional, metaphysical conflict. a conceptual battlefield. we've only barely begun to end the start of this thing.

This is not entirely accurate. Read a history book. It's women's history month - lots of material out there! Talk to people with lived experience. P.S. My mother, grandmother, and great-grandmother all worked out of the home.

love how we killed the old, frail anti-nuke ayatollah just to have him replaced with his young, healthy son who wants nukes and who just had his father, mother, wife, and child murdered on the same day by his mortal enemy. surely this will bring peace to the region

Trump on January 22, 2020 when the CDC confirmed the first US covid case: β€œWe have it totally under control. It's one person coming in from China, and we have it under control. It's going to be just fine.”

Dalylight savings time is stressful for the brain - every year, a transient risk of accidents and illness. We should consider doing away with it.

Put this neuroscientist in Congress and we’ll take it up.
