Just reminding everyone that Trump killed an earlier bipartisan immigration bill during his own administration.
Despite his BS he clearly has an interest in keeping this “crisis” going.

Honestly, you’d be alarmed at how fragile democracies really are, especially when some of the important guardrails and norms that help maintain it have been eroded or removed.

I’ve avoided We Three like the plague for the reason you mentioned. I’ve read every issue of Crossed but seeing an animal suffer in any way just breaks me. I had to shut my eyes during the scenes...

We do have the right to be decisive which is extremely important in a democratic society, but equally if not more important is that we maintain a unified philosophy of faith in the democratic system....

In Y The Last Man when Ampersand died. I actually wept.

Moderate Republicans should contact their representatives, or any representatives and express their thanks and support of Johnson’s willingness to put country before party. Remaining silent...

Possibly because not only is the US bringing in a lot of drugs we're also illegally exporting a lot of guns to drug cartels and paramilitary organizations in South American countries. Of course,...

I scored a few interesting books at our local public library book sale.

If only stiffer penalties were a deterrent. These people believe they’re somehow liberating the country from tyranny and some think it’s a holy crusade. It doesn’t help that Trump is showing approval...
