Nancy Pelosi's kind of a badass.

How, after 3+ years of Trump running roughshod on the political process, did Pelosi, the newly installed speaker of the House, beat him at his own game?

The answer is remarkably simple: She said “no.” And stuck to it.

2019 seems to be the year of the woman, and I'm here for it.  Finally, we have somebody back in a leading government role who can push back against Trump’s bullshit.

It’s about time some adults get back in the room to stop these toddlers and their tantrums and send them to bed.

We’ve had to put up with this administration for too long trying to run things without any respect or regard for the American people. While it would be better if this obstructionist version of the GOP were gone entirely, at least we have the House back.

When he’s not hunting down misplaced modifiers or common misspellings, he’s tinkering with a short story or obsessively collecting recipes.

Novels are good, but the punch of a perfect short story will bring him to his knees.
