Watching some news now, with video of marchers in New York, I think walking over the Brooklyn bridge.
There's a guy with an X ball cap, and my wife keeps jumping up and pointing to him every time they happen to pan over that section of the crowd.

[QUOTE=GoMuskies;676605]Ingraham is an idiot. As is Owens (why is someone quoting her?).
Owens tweeted a video along with that quote. Some here might find it an interesting slant. https://t.co/Lnxz0usrp5
She does have over 2 million followers...
Black woman saying crazy wingnut stuff is a certain kind of Republican's wet dream.
Why is it crazy wingnut stuff? You don't think she as a black woman has experienced racism growing up and as an adult? Just because she doesn't go along with what she is "supposed" to think like as a black person?Quote:

The NYT may have been fundamentally changed today because they published a moderately provocative OP-ed from a sitting US Senator. Wild times.
Former authors of NYT OP-ed pieces that caused no such stir/issues: Adolph Hitler. Muammar Gaddafi. Vladimir Putin.
Lisa Murkowski slipped up:
"When I saw General Mattis' comments yesterday I felt like perhaps we are getting to a point where we can be more honest with the concerns that we might hold internally and have the courage of our own convictions to speak up."
Nope. They have now apologized for publishing that Op-Ed, saying they need to rethink their editorial review process.Quote:

Yes, that's my point. They are going to reduce the number of op eds.Quote:

This situation obviously gives all municipalities an opportunity to cut the overall budgets and make (some) people fill good about it.
