Elizabeth Warren, God bless her, bought the domain name Pocahontas.com and redirected it to her official website just to screw with Donald Trump.
And then she jacked with him some more.

Thanks to Lisbeth for the heads up.
Please meet Congressvarmint Blake Farenthold.

And then hear what he said —
“With President Trump, I’m ready to get off defense and go on offense. Trump is going to slaughter some sacred cows, and I’m ready for the barbecue.”
I imagine you are, Blake, I imagine you are.
In response to the worst mass shooting in American history, Texas Lt. Governor tweeted —

Tell me, Patrick, who is the terrorist? The shooter or the man who stands and loudly applauds him?

I know the NRA tells me that it’s too soon for me to talk about guns, because, you know, I’m reacting from emotion.

Think how often you leave the really important decisions in your life to recommendations of sport’s stars. Investments, health care, whether or not to bomb somebody – you know, things sport’s stars know about.
I notice that all the guys he mentions have a few things in common. You know, like old, like white, like men.
That’s cool.
