dd7bygf	t1_dd7602e	t3_5rfzmf	hillaryclinton	TheCheshireCody	That is literally the bottom of the slippery slope, and we have a party in control who clearly would have no problem being there. Once that happens there is nothing short of an armed rebellion that will change it prior to the end of that election cycle. Hoping for a change with the next election is really just hoping that we can outnumber in the right places the people who will play apologist for the administration no matter what that administration does. I generally hate alarmist talk and rhetoric, but here we are.	false	medium	1,269

That way at least JUST the house needs security instead of a whole street in NYC which costs the tax payers money.	false	medium	1,271

dd7arsf	t1_dd6wt3t	t3_5rfzmf	hillaryclinton	suegenerous	well, she's costing us a lot of goddamn money, and that's basically the main issue that I have. Also, that our president's wife appears to be an abused wife, and I find that pretty upsetting myself.	false	medium	1,283
dd7are3	t3_5rfzmf	t3_5rfzmf	hillaryclinton	Integritywaiting	I just read about a leaked memo stating Trump wants to deport LEGAL immigrants who use any social services which are paid by federal funds. Unbelievable http://www.vox.com/policy-and-politics/2017/1/31/14457678/trump-order-immigrants-welfare. I also read yesterday about the millions of dollars it's costing to have Melanie live in NYC.

dd7aomu	t1_dd6x47l	t3_5rfzmf	hillaryclinton	suegenerous	I can't blame her for one minute that she wouldn't want to be within at least a couple of hundred miles of him but really, she ought to divorce him and just get it over with. She's got secret service and the press so it's not like he can just kill her.	false	medium	1,285
dd7aev2	t1_dd74vyd	t3_5rg204	hillaryclinton	Albert_Cole	I'm not defending Buzzfeed because Buzzfeed didn't write it. Why the hell would Buzzfeed bother to write thirty-five pages of oppo research and then fake-leak it only after it was too late? And even then they got scooped on it by a [CNN article](http://edition.cnn.com/2017/01/10/politics/donald-trump-intelligence-report-russia/) talking about it (an article that is partly credited to Carl Bernstein, of "uncovering Watergate" fame). The source is widely understood to be Christopher Steele, a former MI6 agent who works for a company that gathers opposition research on candidates. I won't use Buzzfeed as the source on Steele's identity and credentials (I don't much like it either) so perhaps you'll settle for [The Guardian](https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2017/jan/12/intelligence-sources-vouch-credibility-donald-trump-russia-dossier-author), [The Telegraph](http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/2017/01/11/former-mi6-officer-produced-donald-trump-russian-dossier-terrified/) or [NBC](http://www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news/former-british-spy-christopher-steele-prepared-explosive-trump-memo-n705891). I'm not saying the memo is all true or completely reliable - the golden shower thing is probably nonsense. But it isn't an "unverified Russian source" at all - it was a qualified, respected member of the intelligence community who considered everything in the report to be at least plausible.	false	medium	1,286
dd7aepx	t1_dd7308v	t3_5rf41z	hillaryclinton	ed_1138	I'm not for witch hunts, but we need Dems that are willing to fight just as hard as Republicans. Feinstein is not one of those Democrats.	false	medium	1,287

dd7a6xv	t1_dd73ww3	t3_5rae5w	hillaryclinton	thats_outrageous_	Bernie's utter lack of campaign strategy and refusal to campaign in the south, completely ignoring Black American's stole the nomination from him. His aide's stealing Hillary's voter registration list stole the nomination from him. Him being a lifelong independent with critical rhetoric towards organizations like the DNC 'stole' the nomination from him. The DNC fully backed him in the beginning of his campaign. Stop spreading lies. You think that the DNC felt warmly towards someone who has never wanted to work with them in the first place?	false	medium	1,289
dd7a354	t1_dd4q635	t3_5qygfd	hillaryclinton	Javin007	You don't seem to know what you're talking about, unfortunately. You're just parroting more liberal garbage. The google charts you show have nothing to do with filibusters. They're just liberal propaganda. The numbers they use are the counts of "clotures" (which CAN BE but ARE NOT ALWAYS used to stop a filibuster) NOT the number of filibusters themselves. From 2007 to 2014 there were only at total of 133 actual filibusters, which your propaganda clearly does not show. And most of THOSE were regarding judicial and executive branch nominations, NOT legislation. During Obama's presidency, there was a whopping TWELVE filibusters on legislation. Keep the lies coming. I know it's how your ilk works.	false	low	1,290

dd79rlk	t1_dd71qtb	t3_5rf41z	hillaryclinton	klm550	Yep! What they did in NC was disgusting. And after Obama won in 2012, there were so many calls for him to reach out to the other side because he had a "narrow" victory. But Trump has been given a free pass to ram through a radical right wing agenda after losing the popular vote by millions and after Republicans lost seats in the Senate and the House.	false	low	1,296

That is literally the bottom of the slippery slope, and we have a party in control who clearly would have no problem being there. Once that happens there is nothing short of an armed rebellion that will change it prior to the end of that election cycle. Hoping for a change with the next election is really just hoping that we can outnumber in the right places the people who will play apologist for the administration no matter what that administration does.

I'm not defending Buzzfeed because Buzzfeed didn't write it. Why the hell would Buzzfeed bother to write thirty-five pages of oppo research and then fake-leak it only after it was too late? And even then they got scooped on it by a [CNN article](http://edition.cnn.com/2017/01/10/politics/donald-trump-intelligence-report-russia/) talking about it (an article that is partly credited to Carl Bernstein, of "uncovering Watergate" fame). The source is widely understood to be Christopher Steele, a former MI6 agent who works for a company that gathers opposition research on candidates. I won't use Buzzfeed as the source on Steele's identity and credentials (I don't much like it either) so perhaps you'll settle for [The Guardian](https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2017/jan/12/intelligence-sources-vouch-credibility-donald-trump-russia-dossier-author), [The Telegraph](http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/2017/01/11/former-mi6-officer-produced-donald-trump-russian-dossier-terrified/) or [NBC](http://www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news/former-british-spy-christopher-steele-prepared-explosive-trump-memo-n705891). I'm not saying the memo is all true or completely reliable - the golden shower thing is probably nonsense. But it isn't an "unverified Russian source" at all - it was a qualified, respected member of the intelligence community who considered everything in the report to be at least plausible.

You don't seem to know what you're talking about, unfortunately. You're just parroting more liberal garbage. The google charts you show have nothing to do with filibusters. They're just liberal propaganda. The numbers they use are the counts of "clotures" (which CAN BE but ARE NOT ALWAYS used to stop a filibuster) NOT the number of filibusters themselves. From 2007 to 2014 there were only at total of 133 actual filibusters, which your propaganda clearly does not show. And most of THOSE were regarding judicial and executive branch nominations, NOT legislation. During Obama's presidency, there was a whopping TWELVE filibusters on legislation. Keep the lies coming. I know it's how your ilk works.

If we go to war with China there will be no more elections. We won't win. Russia will support China, Europe will be fighting Russia, everyone will be pissed at America and mostly the Chinese won't need to go to war they can simply take over the world economy and do what they've been doing for the last two thousand years, enjoy the rewards of waiting for the infantile and impatient western world to cannibalize itself. The the Russians and the Chinese will divide the spoils up and go on about their happy business of consuming worldly resources for the betterment if the few.

This seems like an extremely worthless metric at this stage in the game. We're talking about 5 cabinet nominees that aren't even the most controversial of the picks. Get back to me when the full Cabinet is voted on and bills make their way through congress.

So, how is everyone handling the end of the world? I get depressed when I think about our government. I want to become really active with my local indivisible group but we just started. The call to action yesterday was already a sidestep of the actual guide since they encouraged to call Richard Shelby AND Chuck Grassley to oppose Sessions for AG. It's a waste of time. I am afraid we are gonna lose filibustering.

The reason Californians are opposing Senator Feinstein is because Senator Feinstein [is supporting Trump](https://projects.fivethirtyeight.com/congress-trump-score/) more than any other Democratic Senator.

So I'm going to be applying for masters programs abroad come next cycle. I even enrolled myself in a Swedish language course to brush up on my horrible Swedish. I ain't fighting no war with China when I've got family living there and I'm certainly not going to let myself get caught up in the anti chinese sentiment that is sure going to come up in that scenario. Either way, I'm done with the Republicans and done with the incompetence and destructive nature of the trump administration.

This is the most horrifying thing I've read all day. This connected all the dots in my mind. * This will help the investments and the military industrial complex profiteering of him and his cronies * This will help win re-election * The extreme executive orders, Trump's bragging and making outlandish voter fraud claims... it's all just a distraction. The Muslim ban is also a distraction, but not "just" a distraction - it's a huge horrible real life thing, and one that also serves as a distraction. Of course we'll sink our energy into protecting human rights and stopping voter disenfranchisement, and while those things take all our energy, this happens. * Russia wants this bigly and is working towards it. That's what this has all been about.

Great article. It highlights what is probably my biggest fear: the Republicans controlling both houses, the White House and getting multiple Justices on what is already a baaaaaarely balanced court (depends on Kennedy's mood on a certain issue) will give them a political hegemony that they could use to subvert nearly anything they want. Only actual Constitutional Amendments would be beyond their automatic ability to pass if they stood united. It isn't what Trump is doing now that is so scary - and honestly, I'm more surprised that he is taking the actions he is so immediately - it's what he will be capable of doing after a couple of years of gradually molding and shaping the government to his whim, after he's removed check after check after check on his power.

The problem really is who pays for it. In principle I don't care if Melania stays wherever she wants. But being FLOTUS comes with security requirements that are onerous. The WH is equipped and prepared for this. Trump Tower is not. Who pays for this secondary WH? How many blocks around Trump Tower will need to be closed? What about the people that currently live in and around the Tower? They will all have to go through security procedures that they may not wish. It's a clusterfuck.

There absolutely no reason why any democratic senator should vote/not filibuster this SCOTUS pick. It's perfectly ok to have 8 justices. In fact, any democrat that gets out of the way should primaried and never have the support of the left again.
