Yep. I couldn't see it before, but I do now: a lot of the MSM worked their asses off to help Trump become president, because, IMO, eight years of a scandal-free (and, in their eyes, boring) Obama administration was more than they could handle. They NEEDED some good, gossipy [!@#$%^&*] to keep their audiences and readerships from deserting them. Enter Trump, the "star" and EP of a hit "reality" series, and the GOP, who were ready, willing and able to deliver the meat necessary to keep their hungry selves fed. Factor in the media's long-simmering hatred of the Clintons, a couple who's long been able to dodge whatever boulders they've lobbed at them, and you have part of the recipe for the shitstorm that is unfolding at the moment for them.

Are we talking about the mail bomber, or the president? Never mind, it's true for either guy.

Seriously, where is the off switch on that woman's Twitter account?

Unbefuckinglievable.

Oh, no. Don't let "Mike" Bolton include that on his set list. We don't wanna put any wrong ideas in the Russians' heads. (Other songs to leave off: "Soul Survivor" and "Said I Loved You...But I Lied.")

Hell, maybe he SHOULD have sent Michael Bolton instead! I'd trust Mr. How Am I Supposed to Live Without You more than I would old John.

No, there's no proof that there are Middle Easterners in that caravan...but they just gotta be there (to infiltrate and then kill us all), they just gotta be! I just had the loveliest conversation on FB that ended with me calling one of my FB friend's FB friends a "honky." So, clearly, this is a hot-button issue for me.

If anything, we should use these reports, erroneous as they might be, in order to light a proverbial fire under those who still refuse to vote or who can't decide who to vote for. I've said it before, I'm saying it again, and I'll keep on saying it past 11/6: if I can get off MY ass for once and vote, then you have no excuses not to do the same. None. Once again, if this surprises anyone in the audience, then some of y'all ain't paying attention. NBC is trash. And so is Megyn Kelly. But we knew that already.

Thank you, and thank you.

More on Chicken George's sit-down with Massa Trump's son-in-law: https://splinternews.com/van-jones-interview-with-jared-kushner-was-a-master-cla-1829910507 And from his pitiful excuse of a defense: People on Twitter are saying, cut him off, beat him up. I’m like, ‘This is the first time you’re hearing him say something. You want me to stop him from saying something?’ I want to hear him say something. But he didn't say anything, fool! That's the problem! You didn't ask anything important, and he didn't say anything important! My Lord. At least Ellen Degeneres would've had him get up and play some dumb-ass game with the audience. Basically, he had an opportunity to ask that traitorous s.o.b. Jared Kushner some hard questions about the Trump administration, but instead, he made it the most toothless convo this side of "Iyanla Fix My Life." No, I take that back, because even Iyanla would've been like, "Real talk, boo, fish stinks from the head down!" All VJ did, IMO, was help normalize another of these nasty mutherfuckers who are hurting this country.

He (and Kanye) make me feel ashamed to be an African-American male. Also, why, in God's name, is SON futzing around with the board's formats AGAIN??

One of the arguments that I hate most from Conservatives: "If we allow gender-neutral bathroom facilities in our nation's schools (and elsewhere), girls are more likely to be sexually assaulted!" First of all, do they even know or care how low the chances of that happening are? I think you're more likely to get mauled by that mythical bear that Betsy DeVos believes school employees should arm themselves against!

Van Jones: "You have like the dopest job in this world! How d'ya get that job?" Niggro, PLEASE.

From said article: “on a biological basis that is clear, grounded in science, objective and administrable.” Oh, NOW they want to bring science into it? It's funny to me how science plays an important role in most conservatives' thinking on issues such as abortion or gender identity; yet, when it comes to climate change, something which every credible expert on the subject agrees is a serious threat to our country's safety and future, conservatives would rather stick their fingers in their ears and say, "LalalacreationismlalalaI'mnotlistening."

My guess? Sarah WANTS to die.

But I think it goes deeper than "he didn't fit the show" or "TD was his worst HW'ing stint." Aside from Rita Lakin, no writer or writing team for TD has been able to hold my interest. I guess I shouldn't say the problem lies with the show itself. However, for me, the recurring issue is that none of these characters are well developed. They appear to be nothing more than vessels to bring forth the plots.

When Douglas Marland, the writer who couldn't turn me away even during the worst of storylines (*cough*CarolynCrawford*cough*), can't hold my interest in TD, then I have to accept this show was never for me.

Yeah, but latter-day Jackie made (or makes) peak-period Crystal look like that recovering heroin addict on those Addiction Network commercials.

I just hate this misconception that they (and others) are bringing over their worst criminals when we have more than enough criminals of our own to keep us all up at night.

Am I supposed to feel sorry for her? Because, I don't. Forget that her tweet was racist. Slamming Valerie Jarrett's physical appearance at all is something you'd expect a man to do. Not someone who's supposed to be a feminist. As an African-American, I accept her apology, but I'm not letting her off the hook, ever. She's a big girl. She should've known better than to jeopardize two hundred people's livelihoods with that stupid tweet. And the fact that she can disappear from public life now and never worry about money again...? I'm sorry, I'm just all out of [!@#$%^&*] to give her. What, Jackie can't have TWO love interests? Fine, but if and when I suggest that adding Brett Butler to the cast will save this show, I don't want to hear a word from you. Not. One. Word. (Relax, I'm never going to suggest such a thing.)

He could be a new love interest for Bev, and it would make more sense than being one for Jackie.

Same. (See above.) Another casting suggestion: Topher Grace ("That '70's Show") as a recurring love interest for Becky.

That would make more sense. However, Broderick is over twenty years their senior. I just wish they could coax George Clooney into coming back.

Meanwhile: Matthew Broderick to Recur on "The Conners" As a love interest...FOR JACKIE?? I can't see it, but...okay.

"Who Jackie"? I don't know if I WANT to know what that's about.
