    How about this one? The Republicans own the Presidency, Senate, and House. The CNN headline - "Cuomo to both parties: Do your job"

    LOL. The Republicans won't own up to owning things even when they own everything. The Democrats own nothing but they need to step up and accept equal responsibility. And this from leftyish sources, not Fox.

    If that were my wife, I'd slap her. OK we can't write that in today's time. Let's reverse it. If I were Cuomo/CNN, my wife would bring out the cleaver.

    It took this long. There was plenty of video the night it happened.

    Orwell would have understood the Orange Man perfectly. Churchill, too.

    Trump signed another contract for another couple of hundred miles of wall today. We're well on our way. Just waiting for Dems to work with us.

    Poland put the blame on Germany for starting WW2. But it takes two to tango. If Poland had surrendered to Germany's demands, then Germany wouldn't have invaded.* Therefore both sides are to share the blame.

    * Well Germany would have anyway.

    If only the AP had access to the internet, they could have found video of Trump accepting responsibility for the shutdown. No wonder print media is dying; they don't use the internet!

    On a regular basis, I am stunned at how glib Chuck Todd is about all this. It's like somebody gave Chris Cillizza's snark it's own show.

    Well, King embracing white supremacy IS a "dog bites man" story.

    Per WASP Rafael Cruz, King needs "to stop"

    Sen. Ted Cruz (R-Texas) on Sunday condemned Rep. Steve King’s (R-Iowa) racist remarks in The New York Times last week, but refused to say he wouldn’t support the openly racist lawmaker in the future.

    Cruz, who picked King to co-chair his 2016 presidential campaign, railed against King’s comments published in the Times on Thursday, which questioned why the terms “white supremacist” and “white nationalist” are considered offensive.

    “It was stupid,” Cruz said on NBC’s “Meet The Press.” “It was hurtful. It was wrong. And he needs to stop. I think all of us ought to be united regardless of party in saying white supremacist, white nationalism is hatred, it is bigotry, it is evil, it is wrong."

    Neither. It's self-censorship.

    That's why I think the left needs to just give the ******** up on the idea that the media is a neutral arbiter. The media has a core of jelly. The GOP has terrorized them into acting as a megaphone for GOP talking points and a diminisher of Dem talking points.

    Work the refs; it works.

    CNN isn't taking that path. Its uses the term "racist comments" for its news stories. But of course, per Trump, CNN tells lies.
