It's a seismograph and it was a warning to us all along that he was coming.
I don't like the idea of flagging anyone "the next Obama" before there are any candidates, but it's kinda hard to ignore in this case when ex-Obama people discuss it? Like, how are people supposed to not ever mention it after that?
No major party candidate in this country will actually try to put Israel in its place, lol. A total death sentence, especially because there's a gigantic difference between why the left might want to support Israel vs why the right does. Obama's obvious annoyance with them through his second term is as close to the international norm we're probably ever going to get. There's a reason they were desperate for Trump.

Joke's on Cuomo, this was actually signed by "Donna Shalalalala".
Trump didn't win voters who were concerned about the economy, he won voters who were worried about brown people
Everyone sucks on Israel because there's no good options there.
Yeah, he even said a few years back that he want a "means of production" kind of socialist, which means he's...not one. But it would certainly set him apart.
Wonder who the first on the national stage to bring up that subject will be. I'd expect it to start wiggling its way in if Corbyn is successful in Britain considering what McDonnell wants to do.
Bring back the kibbutzes.
There's a reason I took Facebook off my phone a while back
Thing is that Netanyahu, at least, has gone full-in for the GOP and so any Dem president with a spine is going to be distant with at least him and the other Likudniks simply because they'll be all over whoever the most prominent GOPer opposed to the president is.
If there are no good options, you might as well take a moral one.
The tweet before those two listed argues that the advertising boycotts could put increased pressure on networks to programs that cater to "both sides" while simultaneously having a pro-corporate angle. That doesn't seem like a person who wants a world where white men can't be held accountable, his concern is that advertising boycotts could sanitise controversial political programming, stuff like Spitting Image, as a lot of cable TV shows these days are dependent on advertising to exist.
The specific problem with Nate's take is that this isn't a once off situation for Tucker. The guy made a living off dog whistling, which aren't really dog whistles anymore, and telling verifiable lies. Tucker wouldn't be losing his advertisers if he presented his show like Maher, who is also a islamophobe, and could keep the "gaffes" to a relative minimum so that people could argue his racism was just a "gaffe".
Nate is still denser plutonium because that take only makes sense if he ignores all context behind this advertising boycott.
He isn't being dense. He wants people to ignore all context. That is his goal.
Beyond disgusting. I'm glad that I never bothered with my Facebook account and deleted that shit.
Company legit needs to be smacked down hard.
I'm not sure where Nate is coming from on this one. Advertisers have the right to choose where they spend their ad dollars.
They can pull their ads for any reason, Tucker being an asshole is one of the better ones.

Unless Nate Silver has a long streak of being an apologist for racism and white supremacy, I'm not seeing how Nate Silver is anything but being dense.
Interesting talk on Don Lemon show . The federal government will not charge or indict a sitting president but a STATE like NY could. Is this true? If so what would happen if NY filed state charges against Trump while he was in office and he lands in NYC?
I wonder if it's ever been tested. Sounds like a constitutional landmine.
I donno, giving everyone equal rights seems like a decent option.
I have 7 friends that stop me from uninstalling facebook (yes, I keep a count).
I sent them all messages about Zack Snyder.
What's that netflix recommendations?
Enjoy.
I can't pretend to completely understand where he's coming from, but I feel safe blaming his libertarian leanings for this stupidity.
Either way, they should still be able to go after the organization.
Sure, there's no binding precedent whether a sitting president can be indicted - the only real "ruling" we have on it is a justice department OLC opinion, which is only binding on federal prosecutors. A state could ignore that and bring charges if they're ballsy enough. As for what would happen - Trump would immediately contest the legality of indicting him and I'm sure it would have to make its way to SCOTUS for a final decision before the state is allowed to move forward with the charges.
They're still there, though most of them are "privatized" now.
The last-minute GOP pushes to strip the Michigan Secretary of State of her powers, and to fuck up pensions in Kentucky, each failed tonight.

It's always funny when I hear shit from people that will never be affected by the kind of stuff Tucker is spouting argue for reason. It's the whole order vs justice reasoning that MLK wrote about. If Nate was an immigrant from a "shithole country", guarantee his outlook would be different.
If Facebook is doing it though who else is? Let's not overlook that...
The Democrat in VA HD-24's special election outperformed Hillary by nearly 15% in a Trump +34 district.
Special election margins about to come back next year.
The funniest thing about that document is that there's no way you can argue that wasn't Trump's signature.
I mean, how do you prove that signature is on that document? Who has the original? Wouldnt that be Russia? Or is it typical to physically sign 2 copies? It's not hard to paste a signature onto a document if its a digital photo copy. You know that will be their defense after Rudy said nobody signed it.
Facebook should be done like the Trump Organiztion. YESTERDAY.
We all come from "shithole countries", that's why our ancestors left there (well, the voluntary ones of course). So there's LAYERS to the dullness.
I dunno, he's just been WRONG recently. Like, trying to be like tonight.

I don't think it's that much of a mystery. Nate's a nerd, and like a prototypical nerd, he has an instinctive revulsion to collective punishment that isn't limited by procedural protections or the rule of law. Everything else are ad hoc intellectual justifications for a reaction to trauma. It's a definite blind-spot for him, certainly in this case - Tucker's words and actions are beyond the pale and taking away his platform will save lives. But I think we would be removing one of the more important checks on politically sanctioned cruelty if we had no one around with Nate's temperament.
Sure but i was just curious how do you technically prove it if its a digital copy.
And me.
I've said it before and I'll say it again, If it's Harris/Beto then it guarantees 16 years of Democratic rule. No other ticket combo does that.
