The state rep from where I grew up just made headlines for saying businesses can refuse to serve people of color
So that’s the other side of small town politics

Again, I love politics in MT. Even when it's shitty, our voices always count.
That’s very cool. The recognition that you have altered history for the better, even in a small way, is powerful.

Photo-Confederate Corey Stewart got the nomination in Virginia and Steve King refused to say if he considered himself a white nationalist after he retweeted a Nazi. Brothels are the least of their problems.

You have to hand it to them: Republicans can almost nominate a child molester, actually elect a man who physically attacked a member of the press, support a brothel owner, and embrace a president who stands against 90% of everything they’ve ever been, and still they stand united.
Democrats in one district nominate a young socialist, and it kicks off a fucking whirlwind of interparty “what does this mean for us nationally and how do we cope with such an event and what is even happening (Howard Dean voice) YARRRGGH”

American conservatives are at the precipice and they'll do whatever is necessary to hold on.

i think today's headlines to the effect of "dems want new leadership" is somewhat off-base. i think what's happening is that the established leadership is stuck in a rut, but all these new voices, angered by Trump & Co, are mobilizing more effectively than the establishment party
I just hope everyone will combine forces this time around and not fuck it up for the rest of the country again.
