A U.S. official says an explosive device was found at Hillary and Bill Clinton's suburban New York home. The official says investigators believe it's linked to one found at liberal billionaire George Soros' compound.

Has O'Rourke ever been accused of anything worse than being a pot smoker when he was in a punk band 25 years ago?

I am at a loss why the Democrats don't run a national ad for Congressional candidates talking about how important the concept of checks and balances is, and, how maybe today it is political opponents who are not extended due process, what about the future when it will be someone you care about.

(53,410 posts)This is the natural progression of Trumpism. And it wont stop there. The hatred has been whipped up to a raging froth.
When we win next month there will be more violent backlash.
But that would happen even if we lose in November. Trump thought he could either control them or he could claim himself innocent of the whole thing.
