Good times. It’s like a whole different world seven years later; nothing matters.

Point of the article: No one is giving grief to McCarthy about it since the Trump era ushered is "grab them by the **ssy" and payments to porn stars. Consensual affairs are just not the line in the sand they used to be!


right? Same for making racist statements. It used to be that if you made a racist statement, your career was over. Now? It makes you the darling of the MAGA crowd who feel you are just "tellin' it like it is".

There’s a pretty significant difference between legislation legalizing abortion up to 15 weeks, and one banning it after 15 weeks. One leaves in place more stringent restrictions, the other does not. After what happened on Tuesday, Rs would be very, very stupid to bring up abortion. Ever.

That is fine., What happens when a fetus becomes unviable at 22 weeks? Make the woman carry it to term?

They can talk all they want. Without a Senate that agrees and a president that agrees, it will all just be talk.

Correct. Freedom Caucus is welcoming new members today and inviting Tucker Carlson to speak this evening. They are considering how exactly to make McCarthy's life hell.

It couldn’t be happening to a nicer person.
