Man, it's a good thing Ed Sheeran decided to steer clear of politics, that worked out well for him

Macklemore can sue Robert Kraft for Tortious Interference for economic harm and I hope he does. Discovery would be fun: "Which other stadium owners did you talk to?" and "We need all related emails, text messages and contracts between you and them and you and Sheeran and Sheeran's team."

Corporations are not people.

Their money is not speech.

They should not be able to buy politicians.

End Citizens United.

Jared Kushner is not "on the other side of the aisle."

He's not an elected official. He's not an administration official. He's the president's son-in-law and a private citizen.

You do not, in fact, have to take meetings with relatives of the president. Some might even say you should *not* do that
Jeffries defends his meeting with Kushner: "I'm of the view that if we're going to be committed to actually solving problems on behalf of the American people ... they're are gonna be times that you have to speak with people on the other side of the aisle. Even people you strongly disagree with."

Some people are saying the Far Right aren't fascist because they are getting elected

Hitler was elected, and when he was being elected he promised exactly the same things as the Far Right parties, and when they get into power they will fix the elections exactly as he did

It's fascism

Democrats should be at the microphone right now noting that this is a Hatch Act violation that they'll be pursuing in January.

I don't care that the nation's become numb to this shit. It's still illegal and if Democrats should run against it and then act to crush it.

Last weekend, Red Star Belgrade paid tribute to Ratko Mladić after he died in prison.

Ratko Mladić is also known as the 'Butcher of Bosnia'. A man convicted of being a war criminal for committing genocide at Srebrenica.

UEFA should be banning the club from European Competitions.
