Wonkette will never have a paywall as long as I own it, but enough people give us money anyway that we all have 100 percent paid healthcare, no copays, and lots of other benefits ... as well as all those subscriptions.

If there was nothing wrong with it, why pay back the Putin crony who infiltrated the Trump family?

And can we see a copy of the check?

Trump is so desperate to distract people from his failures that he’s releasing videos of birds and calling them UFOs.

The 400 richest Americans are now worth a record $8 trillion.

The entire bottom 50% of American households is worth just $4.27 trillion.

Read that back.

Remember: Wealth can’t be separated from power. Power begets wealth and wealth begets power.

By moving to the “center,” Democrats have failed to fight the forces that led us to Donald Trump: widening inequality, economic insecurity, and the unchecked political power of corporations and the rich. Political centrism is nonsense. There is no middle ground between democracy and oligarchy.

This is straight out of Handmaids Tale.

A high school trying to force girls to disclose the dates and lengths of their menstrual cycle.

Don’t comply? You lose a grade.

There’s absolutely no reason a school needs this information other than to exert control over our bodies.

“If you’re a US citizen you have no reason to fear”

– Markwayne Mullin, responding to a video of a teenage US citizen being repeatedly punched in the face by ICE.
BASH: He's a US citizen

MARKWAYNE MULLIN: He wasn't arrested

BASH: He was arrested. He was later released, but he was arrested. Do Americans need to carry around proof of citizenship now?

I closed my trade imbalance with the grocery store, now I just eat the money I would have spent there.
Trump: "If we lose $50 billion a year with a country, and we say 'we're not going to trade with you anymore,' we don't lose $50 billion a year. It's very simple. Right?"

Just once, just absolutely once, I would like someone to ask Trump on camera how he thinks international trade works. Like, maybe, do an experiment with monopoly money and toy cars. "Ok, Donald, let's pretend I'm Canada and you're the US."
Trump: “If we stopped Trading with every country that we have a Deficit with, which is most of them, we would make, at least, 1.5 Trillion Dollars a year. The word ‘Deficit’ is nothing more than a fancy word for LOSS.”
