Open thread for night owls: Don't you wish you could be one of these kids for an afternoon?
You know, it’s been another tough week in Primaryland with a lot of fire and brimstone being flung over real and imagined occurrences. So how about a break from all that, even if it’s only for 70 seconds and even if you’ve already seen this more than once? It’s become just about my all-time favorite short video. Something to relax with amid the maelstrom.
Okay, so you’re one of those people, who, even on a Friday night, must have just one more Donnie Trump bit to laugh about, roll your eyes at or have a panic attack over? For you, I recommend Mr. Matt Taibbi’s R.I.P., GOP: How Trump Is Killing the Republican Party.
Have a pleasant weekend.

In other words, the color-coding system is a crapshoot. Not even, because even a crapshoot gets it right occasionally. Terrorists can strike when we're least prepared, that much is clear. So scrap this stupid "scare the people" gimmick once and for all. It's not doing anyone any good. |
On today’s Kagro in the Morning show, Greg Dworkin explains why we might not be as divided as we think. There are still some Gop von Clownstick holdouts. That crazy House vote? It happens, when bending the rules is the rule. Plus your weekend chit-chat roundup: Zika, Huffington, Uber & GunFAIL.
