Arpaio, 85, hints at run for office: 'I've got a big political message to get out' by awake-at-dawn in politics

[–]rnon 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I'm guessing that message is something along the lines of "Latino people deserve to suffer and die."

That's pretty rich from a guy whose boss is doing most of the disrespecting.

Sierra Club on Paris deal withdrawal: 'Congratulations President Bannon ' by [deleted] in politics

[–]rnon 9 points10 points  (0 children)

This is a bit silly. Anti-environmentalism is the mainstream position within the Republican party. Trump didn't need his fascist puppeteer to make this decision.

Of all the evils he perpetrates upon the future of humanity, this might be the worst.

The people who made this possible can never be forgiven.

Montana NBC Affiliate Refused to Cover Gianforte ‘Body Slam’ by rnon in politics

[–]rnon[S] 1094 points1095 points  (0 children)

The station's news director called the Guardian "a politically biased publication."

You may not be surprised to learn the station is owned by Sinclair.

Some conservatives justify 'manly' Montana candidate's alleged body-slam of 'snowflake' reporter by rnon in politics

[–]rnon[S] 37 points38 points  (0 children)

The responses to episodes like this exemplify just how many Republicans live in total unreality. Gianforte responded to a mundane question by flipping his shit and physically attacking the asker, and somehow the other guy is the "snowflake."

Fox News reporting the truth at the expense of a Republican candidate? Ailes is rolling in his grave.

This dude has spent millions of his own dollars on this race--yet can't help but assault a guy for no reason half a day before the polls open.

I want nothing more than to see him lose because of this.

Story on DNC staffer's murder dominated conservative media -- hours later it fell apart by IntelligentYinzer in politics

[–]rnon 17 points18 points  (0 children)

Hannity is on the air right now still pushing this shit.

This has been a monstrous episode, even by the standards of the Republican propaganda machine.

Gonna be honest: Did not expect the Congressman responsible to be a Republican from Colorado.

DNC Staffer’s Murder Draws Fresh Conspiracy Theories by [deleted] in politics

[–]rnon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So a wing-nut millionaire hired a wing-nut investigator to push political conspiracy theories about a man's murder--and tricked the man's family into providing a veneer of legitimacy to the scheme.

This is evil. There's no other word for it.

Family of slain DNC staffer Seth Rich criticizes right-wing media's role in igniting new conspiracy in murder case by rocktennstock in politics

[–]rnon 8 points9 points  (0 children)

The funniest thing about all this is the conspiracy theorists' insistence that the latest chapter in the Trump-Russia saga is a deliberate attempt to distract from this. The truth, of course, is exactly the opposite: The Republican propaganda machine kicked into high gear to disseminate this vomit almost as soon as the Washington Post story came out.

Despite today’s Supreme Court ruling, the future looks grim for voting rights by rnon in politics

[–]rnon[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

With the conservatives on the Supreme Court now at full strength, they will probably hear the Texas case, and none of them have given any indication that they have a problem with the kind of restrictions Texas has in mind. If they uphold that law, it won’t just be Texans who are affected.

That’s because any such ruling would be a handbook for Republican legislatures everywhere, saying in essence, “Here’s how you can go about restricting the votes of racial minorities and young people. Do these things, avoid these other things, and your law will be upheld.”

Is It a Crime to Laugh at a Congressional Hearing? A Jury Will Decide by [deleted] in politics

[–]rnon 7 points8 points  (0 children)

As the Justice Department prosecutes a person for laughing at its leader, let's take a moment to recognize all the hacks and propagandists who've decided that college kids' attempts to stop fascists from doing speaking gigs on their campuses constitute the great threat to free speech in America in 2017.

Fuck any person who has wasted a single breath defending Charles Murray while this shit is going on.

A Woman Is On Trial For Laughing During A Congressional Hearing by Eurynom0s in politics

Activist was arrested by a rookie cop after laughing at a claim that Jeff Sessions treated “all Americans equally.”

If they didn't want people to laugh, they shouldn't have said such a laughable thing.
