That half the country wants to give the presidency to a convicted felon awaiting sentencing who wants to shoot migrants in the leg, shoot BLM protesters, use our military against our us (those Trump doesn't like), and is clearly dragging his leg due to a stroke, is insane.

They are looking for a way to stoke fear of Black Caribbean immigrants because Kamala Harris is herself of Jamaican descent. Watch for conspiracy theories about her family next.

The automotive world has traditionally been male-dominated, but thankfully this is changing. We’ve had the privilege of being among the few publications that has had a number of women in our ranks over the years, and we're proud of this fact. (1/7)

It’s almost like Putin felt emboldened after Trump said he’d encourage Russia to invade Europe and Tucker made his ring-kissing pilgrimage.

I hope when the Supreme Court conservatives go out to eat, every restaurant in D.C. turns them away and tells them that serving judges is against their religion (Matthew 7:1-2).

Prosecuting Donald Trump could have a chilling effect on future presidents’ ability to break the law and brag about it on tape.

It’s ironic that Trump wants to bring back public hangings. Because you know what the penalty is for stealing classified documents and selling them to our enemies? — Death by hanging. – at Los Angeles, CA

Only two people ever wrote as well as this about the joy of riding motorcycles: Melissa Holbrook Pierson and Charley Boorman. See if watching this doesn't give you a tingle down the spine... youtube.com/watch?v=yK93wVyV…
