Yes, Social Science is a science. That's why they call it Social SCIENCE. If you want to know what makes humanity tick, you have to listen to them.

    Over a year ago, I got a letter from saying they were partnering with Duke Energy to help invest in renewables. Through Arcadia (and for a few extra dollars a month), 100% of my power bill $$ goes toward wind energy somewhere. Just an idea.👍

    Yes. I’m a teacher and I’ve worked with some extremely unhinged people who’ve had breakdowns at work, one of whom was ex military and would probably be the first person conscripted to carry at school. This is a terrible idea.

  3. It’s the teachers who want to participate in this that worry me, Martha. Police hit moving targets 30% of the time. Not to mention guns stored negligently, or used as discipline (Google it; both have happened). If a child’s life is lost for any of these reasons, would you object?

  4. JFC I don’t understand how a man who calls himself an economist can argue that the Commerce Department is “nonessential.” The Commerce Dept houses the Census Bureau, which collects nearly *all* the economic data economists rely on; and the BEA, which tabulates and releases GDP

  6. “You can’t impeach somebody that’s doing a great job, that’s the way I look at it” — Trump says in Rose Garden This is false. Congress can begin impeachment proceedings if and when it wants, irrespective of what some people think of the president’s job performance.

    Hi guys I wanted to clear up a common misconception real quick. In the Beauty+Beast opening song when the busy mom pleads for 6 eggs, its not the egg seller who says “thats too expensive,” but in fact a completely different transaction regarding jugs, as can be seen here (green).

    In another thread, points out that Carlson, Hanson, et al., might have *always* been like they are now, and never-Trumpers are both condescended to and self-deluded about their colleagues. I tend to agree. But I'd like to add something about Hanson. 3/

    A couple of things about this clip and discussion: 1) Carlson and Hanson aren't wrong in what they say in this segment (or, at least, they've been *far more wrong* in other cases). I've been guilty of stereotyping Trump supporters (and his base is actually wealthy). 1/

    Do. Not. Blame. Women. For. Men’s. Mistakes. Attacking her for her father’s idiocy demonstrates how weak your argument is. You love socialism? DEFEND IT. Liz Cheney has NOTHING to do with Iraq. Shame on you, Senator.😡

  13. This is SO confusing. The wall's already built? Or do you still need $5B for the wall? Is Mexico still paying for it? Oh, so they'll pay LATER, you say? But you're building it anyway, even if you don't get $5B? So wait...why is the government shut down? dammit!

    I've had this feeling that the GOP will allow this shutdown to go for weeks in order to then say, "See? Who needs government anyway!"

    ., as a restaurant chain that depends on women, do you agree with this misogynistic rhetoric? As an advertiser on this program this evening, this is what you’re supporting.

  17. 👇👇 This is precisely the point I was trying to make yesterday... dopping the F-Bomb is EXACTLY WHAT TRUMP WANTS. His game is basic and crude & bc of that- he wins it. This is an opportunity for democrats to elevate & execute their legislative plans.

    Glad to see we've moved on from "women in politics shouldn't dance" to "women in politics shouldn't swear." Looking forward to "women in politics shouldn't wear high hemlines."

    my favorite way to listen to the president is slowed down to 1/2 speed because it reveals how often times his logic is indistinguishable from that of a drunk person:
