    This is what emboldened white supremacists look like

    You can criticize a person without mentioning their race. The fact that race was the only thing Trump cited as his reason for believing that Judge Curiel was biased against him suggests that it was a merely race-based attack.

    Because he didn't just claim that the judge was Mexican. He said that the judge couldn't treat him fairly because he's Mexican.

    Take Trump out of it for a moment, and just look at Bill Maher. I think there's a tremendous amount of value in his show, and how he approaches discourse, because he's one of the few places where you actually can get every side. He will bring on anyone with a unique perspective, agree...

    He sounds a bit like a conservative when he talks about it. And to some extent, I agree with some of it. But the problem is, the vast majority of the time, he is overshooting.

    That's one of his favorite themes. And while he does have a nugget of a point, he's mostly way off base.

    Yes. For instance, he said that Judge Curiel couldn't judge him fairly.

    So that's more than Trump has ever done in his entire wretched life. It's been 24 hours. On a weekend. Whether he's forgiven or not isn't up to me. But I don't think that in substance it's as bad as a lot of what Trump has said. As far as I know, he's never uttered a slur on camera. How...

    My "hero" Bill Maher: 1. Should absolutely not have said what he did. 2. Has already apologized. 3. Has been widely condemned by others on the left. Ok, your turn. Show me where Trump has ever apologized for any of his horrible comments.

    Law v. Order

    Last night, the self-designated party of "law and order" elected Greg Gianforte, a man who had just committed assault against a reporter, to Congress. This may seem strange at first glance, given that this party has spent so much of its energy criticizing various groups like Black Lives Matter...

    It's the elected government of these communities. No one can remove the history of the Civil War, the Confederacy, or early American history. What you can change is how we engage with it. These things aren't being destroyed. They're being removed from the places of honor in which they were...

    Haven't you heard? Only conservatives are individual. Liberals are just another group of indistinct, like-minded drones.
