Yeah, we shower way more than pretty much everyone else. We are filthy with communism.

Smells like ANTIPOPE!

Orthodoxy is the only correct religion you all should know. It's in the name. "Orthodox". It's right there guys. Names don't lie. Show me proof that names lie and I will show you hateful lies!

Also turnout was up in New York primaries yesterday. But that wasn't a sign of progressive strength (at least not on a state level): Cynthia Nixon beat the previous liberal challenger's turnout by quite a lot, but the same was true of Governor Cuomo, who crushed her 2-1. But more locally, in the State Senate, 6 of 8 of the rebel democrats who caucused with Republicans (and helped Republicans control Albany despite being a minority) have been felled by progressive challengers, meaning that, if Democrats defeat even one Republican in November, Democrats will finally take control of Albany. It's especially notable as the Independent Democratic caucus, as the rebels were called, outspent their challengers by a fair margin. And there is the case of Salazar, the Democratic Socialist in the mold of Ocasio-Cortez, who triumphed in Brooklyn. So there is a real, but complicated, story of democratic enthusiasm in New York.

Is there any truth to the only googleable information about Salazar seeming to be that people keep catching her in lies and a few organizations have even retracted their support of her.

I fully admit this is the sort of stuff right wing media would latch upon and fan the flames of even if it were only a minor little thing. And maybe despite that she's still the better option available, but she's sounding unreliable even by politician standards. I'd hate to see this movement get "tea partied" with a bunch of people who wave the "single payer, free college" banner while stuffing their own pockets.

That said, I'm not a new yorker, y'all do what you want up there, but I am glad to see the IDC get knocked down a couple of pegs either way.

It's pretty amazing how commonplace people turning states evidence against the President has become.

I have to believe that they have piles of evidence at this point and are simply piling more and more so they can come out with a giant reveal.

The White House naturally states that he is offering no evidence as to wrongdoing insofar as Trump s concerned, it's about unrelated things. Trump hasn't said anything yet but I'm sure it will be all about how noone is loyal to him and everyone else is awful and it's all a sham.

It just means that I worship a single deity, but recognize there are others. It's a classification like monotheist and polytheist.
