While Uber (probably) had it coming, it's still annoying that the Internet as of late has turned into scores of "famous person writes a long virtuous post proclaiming how some other famous person is less virtuous." I want my

Where were all these millionaires and billionaires when we were droning people in some of these countries? They all donated to Clinton's election campaign and under her watch as Secretary of State we dropped thousands of bombs. They su

I'm sorry you're being downvoted (even though you're off by a couple of countries). These were useful and scary stats. 26,000+ bombs...

Trivia: the specific seven countries are ones deemed by DHS to be "high risk" in February 2016, during the Obama administration, so it's not an arbitrary pick by Trump [1]: "Have you traveled to, or been present in, Iraq

This is not a Muslim ban. This is a temporary suspension for immigration from certain countries (many of which we are currently droning, which in itself should've been an outrage years ago.) No one called for action on Malaysia, for ex

We've been killing Muslim families in these countries for years, even under Obama (a Nobel Peace Prize winner.) Like or hate Trump, I'm surprised that now is the time to be outraged. It should've been ages ago.

John Lewis is a hero for what he did in 1965, but now is also an elected official for many years. It's totally fair to criticize or discuss his work and results -- we're not North Korea...
