Betsy DeVos is soooo crooked...

When she lays down on her back, her body spells out the letter "W".

The final season of "Orange is the New Black"...Wow...No Spoilers

If you're looking for some nice, feel good about life, closure, you've come to the wrong place. That show went out swinging hard.

This is the message that needs to be sent to Senate Republicans

If you let Trump walk away from this, you will then own ALL of his future crimes. He becomes you, and you become him. Just like when a judge gives a lenient sentence to a criminal with a violent past, and then that criminal commits another violent crime after release. The public holds that judge accountable.

So, are you sure that you want to give Trump a pass on this? This may be your last chance to be rid of him once and for all.

What's the word for....

You're supposed to do something, but you can't remember what it is you're supposed to do.

"You might be demonstrating a failure to show appreciation." -- The Irishman

I predict that this will be the most often repeated line from the movie.

Chuck Todd will rename "Meet the Press" to...

"This is bad for the Democrats".

Every show is the same for Chuck:

Democrats launch impeachment -- "This is bad for the Democrats".
Democrats don't launch impeachment -- "This is bad for the Democrats".
Democrats fight back. -- "This is bad for the Democrats".
Democrats tweet that they like Baby Yoda. -- "This is bad for the Democrats".

Every fucking show is nothing more than a lame ass attempt to make Democrats feel bad about themselves no matter what they do.

Jimmy Hoffa

So, I was watching the new Scorcese film, "The Irishman", and I started to think. If we still had labor bosses like Hoffa around, would we still be dealing with this level of income inequality?

Yes, Hoffa and some other union bosses were corrupt, probably racist, definitely sexist, etc. However they did fight hard for labor's share of the pie.

Something tells me that Jeff Bezos would have to give back more than a few of his billions to his workers.
