Josh Marshall's guidance a few hours before Trump's State of the Union address gave me more to think about than six acres of punditry.

Especially these discriptions. An "increasingly chaotic and feral person... who can’t not escalate." Read the rest: talkingpointsmemo.com/edblog/how-t...

They absolutely believe sex with child isn't bad. In fact, they can't seem to get enough of it! They want the rest of us to believe it isn't that bad and to shut up about Epstein.

Wait, did the SAVE Act already pass and they forgot to tell voters? No!

I’m going to need an update on this. I hope she was able to cast her ballot in the primary.

Texans, if this is happening to you, post your story with the polling location. Put it on blast. And report it.

The Trump Administration is starting to collect lists of Americans who despise Trump. America needs to get to the point in its citizens’ cognitive development when the β€œlist of Americans who despise Trump” is simply called β€œthe U.S. Census.”

Now that she is not seeking reelection when her term ends, she is joining the rank and file of spineless Rs who can't say anything if they are running again.

β€œJD Vance fell victim to one of the classic blunders. The most famous of which is 'never get involved in a land war in Asia,' but only slightly less well-known is this: 'Never bring ICE to the Winter Olympics’”.

I am sure they are so used to their echo chamber that they are amazed by this.

The last nuclear arms treaty between the US and Russia expires tomorrow.

For the first time since 1969, there will be no constraints.

It's worth remembering that when Trump ended the Iran nuclear deal in his first term, he said there would be a "better deal."

It never happened.

Cognitive dissonance? They are having problems believe what they see but are trying to verbalize that they are not monsters, while still being monster-ish?

It's like they have taken a step back and don't want to be associated with the worst examples. They are getting warmer ...

White people need to do better. Not sure about objective vs subjective fear?

To quote Missy Cooper (Young Sheldon)

"It's ok to be scared

We just have to do it anyway."

He *may* have immunity as Acting President of the US, but does he have immunity as Acting President of Venezuela? Tune in next week when the Supreme Ayatollahs issue a ruling.
