"Hamilton Electors" Could Prevent Trump Presidency
Why is the pipeline directed over the Missouri River twice?
Why not go SE from Stanley and miss he Missouri River completely? Does anyone know about the geography of the region and why they would go West and then East hitting the Missouri twice?
Tucker Carlson is at war with himself
Fox News host Tucker Carlson's on-air war with elitism
For some context, he is ripping into New York Times writer Nicholas Kristof here.

Tucker > "You've thought a lot about the suffering of people in other countries. You've thought a lot about it," Carlson said. "It doesn't seem you've thought that deeply about the suffering of your fellow Americans."
Snip >
"What I would say is that clearly voters are mad at the establishment and have contempt for the establishment. But the establishment has greater contempt for voters," he said. "If you think your average Trump voter in Ohio hates Washington, you should see what Washington thinks about the Trump voter in Ohio."
Carlson said that "the core irony" of the political system is that "the people who are running the democracy don't believe in democracy."
There is more of this shit at the link. Un-fucking believable! Tucker Carlson now thinks he and Trump have a corner on caring about Americans who are struggling and the "elite liberal media" only care about themselves.
Yes, because liberals haven't spent their entire fucking lives working for the poor and downtrodden as Republicans like Carlson have picked their pockets kept their wages down. These fuck heads have no shame. He speaks of irony? Republicans suddenly caring about poverty and suggesting liberals don't is irony on an epic level!
FUCK YOU TUCKER CARLSON you fucking ass hole!

Ann Coulter says Trump may 'sell out' on immigration
Snip>
Conservative commentator Ann Coulter's strong support of President-elect Donald Trump may be faltering.
The Wrap reports that "Coulter appears to be angry over Trump backing off his campaign promise to build a wall around the United States as part of his immigration policy."
On Friday, she responded to someone on Twitter who expressed concernabout Republicans' forthcoming work on immigration.
Coulter tweeted back, "Sounds like the big sell-out is coming. Oh well. The voters did what we could. If Trump sells out, it's not our fault."
However, in a recent blog post she had a stronger point of view, writing, "...if Trump doesn't appoint the sort of people capable of fulfilling his campaign promises on immigration, he will fail."
During the presidential campaign, Coulter admitted that one of the main reasons she backed Trump was because of his tough approach to illegal immigration.

So Alan Dershowitz thinks Keith Ellison is Anti-Semitic but not Steve Bannon
Can someone explain WTF is going on with Dershowitz?
On Edit: I know a lot of us on the left think Israel is heavy handed including a crap load of Jewish folks like Jon Stewart who have been very critical of Netanyahu. I get the sense that because he supports Israel 100% that he tries to gas light the left who ask questions about how heavy handed Israel can be. It's intellectually dishonest on his part. I am sure there are some anti-Semitic's on the far left but the bulk of liberals have zero problem with Jewish folks but serious problems with Netanyahu and the treatment of Palestine. They are two very different issues.
