This year’s crop of congressional interns are not fucking around: First, there was 21-year-old Caitlin Marriott, who screamed “Fuck you!” to Donald Trump at the White House in June. Now we have 27-year-old Jackson A. Cosko, an intern for Rep. Sheila Jackson Lee of Texas, who allegedly doxxed Sens. Lindsey Graham,…
Can’t talk! Singing Hoku’s “Perfect Day” to a cobweb-covered stool in the corner!
Good morning, and also good evening, because I’m guessing that, like me, you maybe haven’t slept much for the past two days! In case you missed it, here’s a video of Republican members of the Senate Judiciary Committee laughing and congratulating themselves for taking a bold stance against a sexual assault victim…
Republicans on the Senate Judiciary Committee brought in a prosecutor to question Dr. Christine Blasey Ford, who offered personal testimony and spoke in a measured, almost conciliatory tone as she described, in graphic detail, her memories of being sexually assaulted at 15. But when Brett Kavanaugh, who is under…
Isn’t it weird that today felt...fine?
Here is exclusive footage of congressional Republicans working to make sure you die in a mountain of debt!
Former acting Attorney General Sally Yates, who was fired by the Trump administration in January after refusing to defend the first travel ban, appeared in a hotly anticipated Senate Judiciary Subcommittee hearing on Russian interference Monday afternoon along with former CIA director James Clapper. During the…
Sen. Lindsey Graham went on The Daily Show last night to laugh about his surprising and bad decision to endorse Ted Cruz, and guys, it was an absolute romp from start to finish.
Welcome, Sen. Lindsey Graham, to an extremely long list of Republicans who have suddenly and dramatically changed their tune.
After several months of polling at one percent on a good day, South Carolina Senator Lindsey Graham announced Monday morning he’s dropping out of the Republican primary race. In related news, Lindsey Graham was, until this morning, still in the Republican primary race.
The Republican presidential candidates have had a grand ole’ time pandering awkwardly to Jewish GOP donors at the Republican Jewish Coalition forum today in Washington, D.C.—and none more than Donald Trump, the shriveled pinto bean you had to pluck out of your Chipotle burrito basket, who was introduced as “a mensch…
Sen. Lindsey Graham, the Republican presidential hopeful who is polling so low he failed to qualify for either of the last two Republican debates, was scheduled to discuss foreign policy at Thursday’s Republican Jewish Coalition after Sen. Ted Cruz’s speech. Apparently, Cruz’s claim that the Republican party will…
Are you ready for it? Are you ready for the next 461 days of being campaigned at by a pack of desperate losers, flop-sweating in their suits, overtaking your TV, your radio, your mailbox, leaning in too close at your local diner or county fair, corndogs clenched awkwardly in their fists, showing all their teeth in a…
Donald Trump had a very Trump-ish weekend. During a Saturday rally held in Phoenix, the presidential candidate promised a group of nouveau Know-Nothings that he would banish “the illegals.” “This has become a movement,” Trump said. “The silent majority is back, and we’re going to take our country back ... the word is…
“If we’re not safe in our own churches, then where are we safe?” Pop quiz: Was the preceding sentence uttered by, a. One of the grieving congregants at Emanuel AME Church in Charleston, South Carolina? Or b. Elizabeth Hasselbeck of Fox and Friends, making the Charleston shooting into “an attack on faith” rather than a…
Oh, hey. Illinois Republican Senator Mark Kirk tried to make a joke. That’s — that’s odd. Why do these dudes think they can make jokes? Don’t they have supportive family members or colleagues or close friends to gently take them aside and say, “Senator Mark Kirk, my man, you’re surprisingly OK for a Senate Republican…
Sen. Lindsey Graham, the unmarried (heyyyy!!) Republican presidential candidate from South Carolina was recently asked who would act as his first lady if, by some miracle, Graham found himself elected to the country’s highest office. He responded with a number of options, but none of them were good.
That creaking, clanking noise you hear faintly—so faintly—is the sound of the 2016 presidential election rolling inexorably in our direction. But right now much of the action is centered in Iowa, where, FYI, Republican senator Joni Ernst (who first came to our attention with an ad proudly touting her hog-castration…
Sup, homenuggets. I’m South Carolina Senator Lindsey Graham. And I’m running for President.
