  1. Interesting perspective from the Atlantic: https://www.theatlantic.com/technology/archive/2020/02/coronavirus-and-blindness-authoritarianism/606922/ TL,DR: China's mass digital surveillance has made its populace reluctant to say anything at all. Because of this, the ChiComs have no idea how big the problem is and weren't able to get a hold of the virus like they did during SARS.
  2. Question for those of you who remember the 2015 GOP primary debates: Did anyone go after Trump in the debates the way Warren went after Bloomberg last night? IIRC no one did until it was too late in the process.
  3. You forgot this one in the progression.
  4. https://www.aldailynews.com/new-alabama-poll-shows-tight-race-for-u-s-senate/ The good news is that the GOP primary is a real donnybrook. The bad news is that Doug Jones is at least 8 points in arrears to all contenders not named Roy Moore.
  5. At least there was no "Insure with Nationwide or your kids die" this year. This is still one of the best Super Bowl commercials ever put to cellulose.
  6. One of the biggest problems of this is that nobody believes the numbers that the CPC is putting out.
  7. I'd be fine with him in either spot.
  8. Did they at least get enough out of the SEC deal to replace the artificial turf?
  9. Adam Schiff will be the Speaker of the House sometime soon, and the US will be better for it.
  10. Original article from City Pages The only reason Paul Gazelka is still the Majority Leader is that the Senate didn't face the electorate in 2018.
  11. Either Tennessee wins a close one or the Chiefs blow them out. I don't see any other outcome as possible.
  12. They voted for Scott Walker three times since 2010. That's all you need to know about Planet Cheese.
  13. Arizona, Colorado, North Carolina, and Maine. That's the path to the majority, even if Doug Jones doesn't make it in Alabama. I might even add Kansas to that tier if Korbach is the GOP nominee.
  14. That was the equivalent of a left hook to the liver. I'm surprised he got up.
  15. Four speed, dual quad, posi-traction?
  16. RBG 4, pancreatic cancer 0
  17. Jo Swinson wasn't the only party leader to lose their seats. Nigel Dodds, leader of the DUP, lost his seat to Sinn Fein's candidate. There will be an Irish reunification referendum in the not-so-distant future.
  18. Watching the vote in the Judiciary Committee, and 15 of the 17 GOP members of the committee are angry, fat white men. The visual contrast between the two caucuses is stunning.
  19. And here we go.
  20. So what time is the restart this morning? 9?
  21. This. When he did that during his closing argument I just about jumped out of my chair.
  22. Even before the GOP turned into the party of Trump, there still hasn't been a good reason why anyone under the age of 40 should vote Republican.
  23. Doug Collins must be from Wisconsin, because he needs a lot of cheese to go with all that WHINE.
  24. So is today the vote on the articles to advance them to the House floor?
