Remember that GOP tax plan that was going to be released today? Whoops. They’re still fighting over the details, so now it will be unveiled tomorrow. Definitely tomorrow.
James Fallows at The Atlantic explains what has gone wrong with our political system, and it’s not Trump. It’s the Congressional leaders who have chosen tribal loyalty over Constitutional duty.
Kevin Spacey’s career took a major hit after allegations of sexual harassment. Who’s next? Jeremy Piven, come on down! Let’s see if, as has become standard after one woman breaks the seal of omerta, more women come forward now.
Who’s just as stupid and ineffectual as Donald Trump? Terrorists. The majority of the victims in the New York truck attack on bicyclists weren’t even Americans.

Unlike Hollywood’s last blacklist, this one at least sounds like they are getting the right guys – for now.
One of the “details” holding up the GOP tax plan is what to call it. Trump, apparently, wants to call it “The CUT, CUT, CUT Act”.
Classy !
@jason: Ironically, Vincent Kartheiser is about as lefty as they come. For a long while he lived in a shed without electricity, IIRC.
