12:00 am
lou, and gave the proceeds away. lou: thank you for being here. again our congratulations and great success with the bad. john o neil. >> thank you. lou: that's it for us tonight. tomorrow, congressman ron desantis joins us. kennedy: kicking off the show with an election alert. the polls have closed in pennsylvania in the primaries for the house, the senate and the governor's mansion. one of four states holding primaries today, including nebraska and idaho. but according to every political analyst, it is the keystone state that is the main event because it is crucial in the democrats plans to retake the house. but republicans have other ideas and they are looking to stop the big blue wave in its tracks. part of that involves beating back incumbent senator bob saycy casey. it will be a hard fought contest as will the 18 house seats up for grabs there. which party has the edge going
12:01 am
forward? results are going to start pouring in shortly. joining me now, digits tall politics editor were chris stirewalt is here. welcome back to the show. >> happy election night. kennedy: happy election night. once again here we are on the march to 2020 as per usual. let's talk about pennsylvania. how has redistricting wreaked havoc in that state? >> so the republicans gerrymandered it to affair these well. and the democrat court tipped it back the other direction, a slight democratic lean. and that means that the republicans are probably going to lose three seats, the democrats think it could be five, republicans would be happy if they get out with a net loss of four. a lot of that will depend on -- the democrats need 23 seats to retake the house. if they pick up four in pennsylvania, that would put them a good way down the path to what they need to do. pennsylvania is the kind of state where the democrats are like republicans, in places from 2010, 2014 where they shouldn't be and they can pry back out.
12:02 am
but that depends on getting nominees for your party that match up with the voters in your district. kennedy: conor lamb taught us that valuable lesson in the special election. is he running again? >> he got restrict redistrictef the district he represented. and the district he's in now is a highly republican district. he' running again and stands a good chance in the new district where we's runnings and he is in fact a template for democrats in that state anthere are e and thr candidates, one in the first congressional district, young, fe mall, moderate former republican, those are the kind of candidates -- kennedy: and it might be ladies night in pennsylvania. am i right there? >> if you go to the right places, it's always ladies night in pennsylvania. but yes, i think you will see quite a number of women, not just in pennsylvania but in races across the country
12:03 am
tonight. kennedy: what are some of the prevailing themes? have democrats internalized that conor lamb lesson and are they running better candidates with more local issues? disbl>> i think local issues ara part of it. the big thing they're coming off republicans arrepublicans for i. them up with health insurance. kennedy: we're going to discuss that later in the show. >> you are a wrecking shop. kennedy: i ain't doing nothing like it. >> pennsylvania is a great place for that. a great place for that message because you have a lot of economically insecure voters, a lot of older voters thinking about the issues. democrats need to be the party of entitlements and preserving entitlements and preserving -- kennedy: with formaldehyde. let's talk about the democrats needing the house seat pickup in nebraska.
12:04 am
do they have a shot there? >> they've got a great shot. this someone of their best pickup opportunities if they can resist the temptation. they have very nice -- you have to love races in nebraska. everyone is so nice. kennedy: oh, yeah. >> the nebraska version of an attack ad is gosh darn it i disagreed with him on medicaid. don't get out of control. but have had a testy democratic primary out there and certainly for -- my favorite name for a member of congress, congressman bacon, he's hoping that he will draw the liberal democrat, progressive female instead of the guy that he narrowly beat in a better republican year two years ago. kennedy: brai try to do my home work when you're on because you're that good. there's a complicated vacancy in the idaho gubernatorial race. am i right about that? >> complicated vacancy was the
12:05 am
title of your -- kennedy: that sounds like a fake name. >> butch otter is retiring, sort of the king of idaho republican politics. idaho is the fastest growing state in the union. boise is the fastest growing metropolitan area in the country and the state's politics are change. you have the lieutenant governor lined up to take the slot but then you have some insur jebts. an out outside, a businessman, but also you have raul labrador who is known for his conservatism ke. kennedy: yes. he's a proliberty member of the house. we'll be very curious to see if the man with two great names can make it one great race in a fine state. we have to run along. we've got all of these other things to talk about. but i could stare into your eyes
12:06 am
and discuss politics for hours. >> from otter to labrador, yes, ma'am. kennedy: so many animals covered. the president may want to hold off on a self congratulatory prize retreat because north korea canceled tomorrow's high level meeting with south korea when things were going so well citing the joint military drills with the united states that they called a rehearsal for invasion. the hermit kingdom signed off on the annual exercise prior to agreeing to meet with our president. but there are reports that kim jong-un could cancel that highly anticipated june 12th summit even the same drills. the white house responded in a statement, quote, the united states will look at what north korea has said independently and continue to coordinate closely with our allies. it is worth noting that all of this comes days after north korea began dismantling their nuclear test site as a show of good faith. are beginning t bewe we going e
12:07 am
we going to war. let me go to the panel. senior director and a fox news contributor we, jessica, and onx news radio, tom sha lew is here. welcome, everyone. >> don't tell people i work for the show. my kid is watching and i tell him i pay piano in a brothel. a little more glamorous. kennedy: much more honorable job. let's talk about north korea. no one should be surprised if kim jong-un's ta tantrums. his greatest fear is that the west is going to annihilate north korea with help from their neighbor to the south. it's not a surprise that he's stomping his foot. >> well, i guess so. it shouldn't be a surprise, however -- kennedy: but it doesn't totally
12:08 am
derail things, does it? >> he's behaving erratically for an evil dictator. kennedy: exactly right. >> but i'm wondering why they gave so many concessions. they gave the hostages back before this meeting. kennedy: yep. >> then we saw them. i mean we saw the aerial photos. they're dismantling the site. i don't know if that's a huge step or not. they're doing it. kennedy: that there are also reports that thi that site was damaged and hundreds of people died underground. >> the thing is they're making gentlemegestures. i don't know why they didn't wait on the ye gestures. kennedy: if they had held on to the hots tajes hostages, they me gotten more. >> a lot of people in the united states is saying they blinked. kennedy: and many who have been optimistic about the diplomacy were taken aback a little bit because this may throw the
12:09 am
entire process off track. and you can almost hear the left giddy with excitement. >> you can hear my from there? i represent the left. kennedy: on this panel i certainly do. but i do think people on both sides have been remarkably responsible. >> why do you hate peace? >> we love peace, my party. we don't want to fight. any who. kennedy: bomb the living day daylights. >> and you still didn't vote for her. no, i do think it's interesting. i'm not surprised they did something. i think what kim jong-un was doing, he knows he needs a deal of some kind to stay alive, to be able to stay in control. and it's not surprising that he's going to try to, you know, throw some what is it, in the works or whatever you're supposed to say there.
12:10 am
what he did was get president trump incredibly excited about this being an accomplishment for his presidency. kennedy: you're saying he's manipulating president trump? >> they're manipulating each other. kennedy: that's what negotiations are like. >> there it is. i think it's strategy by kim jong-un to save face. he's conceded a lot. he wants the perception to be that he took a hard line stance. i actually think this is bookdies because they stand to lose a lot of money if trump wins a nobel peace prize. this is right to pyongyang in an irish accent saying cancel the meeting. kennedy: it reminds me of ian curtis, the lead singer of a band who was on the verge of blowing up and becoming huge in the united states and the lead singer took his own life the night before they started their united states tour. and i wonder if the pressure has
12:11 am
gotten to kim jong-un, the pressure of success, which he has never known, and it must terrify him causing him tore toe more irrational. the medial grudge match with president trump knows no bounds and the vitriol extended to his family. today's cover of the new york daily news shows a picture that you see of ivanka trump at the opening of the u.s. embassy in jerusalem with the headline daydy'headlinedaddy's little gh. meanwhile, benjamin netanyahu defended his use of military force in the protests. they blamed them and terrorist group hamas for putting children in the line of fire, a sentiment echoed by nikki haley today. >> those who suggest that the
12:12 am
gaza violence has anything to do with the location of the american embassy are sorery mistaken. the violence comes from those who reject the existence of the state of israel in any location. kennedy: the u.s. then blocked the u.n. security statement calling for an investigation into the protesters' deaths. but who's to blame here and does the anti-trump media have any shame left? tom, so let's talk about this a little bit. because hamas knew what they were doing. they knew that the bigger protests, the more press coverage and sympathy they would get. and they also know that embedding hamas terrorists among women and children is an effective move by using these people that, you know, they deem disposable as human shields. >> an effective move if you go by the same play book. they've done it before. they're going to do it again. so maybe this -- you know, this is an argument for taking a
12:13 am
different approach. a lot of people -- there's a lot of diplomats saying this was unwise, you know, this is just a provocation. but we've tried being an honest broker in this middle east peace process for the longest time. maybe this little bit more of belligerence that america is showing to the rest of the world is going to show, you know, bear some fruit in this situation as well. kennedy: the united states tried being un provocative. >> for a long time. kennedy: many have said i'm moving the embassy from tel-aviv to jerusalem. they all say it. finally this happened. but it didn't take that move in order to insight silence. >> we us readin i was reading as earlier and they've been doing this for weeks now. it got a little aggressive around the opening of the embassy. kennedy: and the global press there. >> exactly. so it's a little difficult to make the case that this is just because of the embassy move. i do think it's important for us to put our stake in the ground
12:14 am
saying this is what the u.s. policy is, this is our ally. but at the same time i didn't like the fact that ambassador haley walked out and didn't listen to the palestinians. i don't think that's a gesture we should be making. there are a lot of people on their side. if you look at the cover of the "the new york times" today which i thought was certainly not the headline that i would have run with. but very pro-palestinian there. no, it's not suppliesin surprist that's the paper of record for america. and everyone was maintaining that the president wants peace. steve mnuchin says it, the trump kids, jared and ivanka. kennedy: make hamas and the pal palestinian authority is so inextricably linked that the united states, you know, they can't say you're not a rational government. this is not our. >> in '06 that was a farce and
12:15 am
yes, they're run by a terrorist organization but at the same time that's what we're dealing with. kennedy: quickly, jimmy. >> i think it's generous that they're calling these people protesters. you're showing up with a rifle on your back and a grenade in your knapsack. a protester wears a stupid hat and marches on d.c. >> are you talking about the lady hats? >> i'm trying to cut down. it would match. layoff of the jacket. if you're trying to blend in and keep a loo profile on the set tonight. i do want to say this. kennedy: it's a salmon jacket with a persimmon tie. >> is that what's going on? >> i did not know it was persimmon or whatever. i'm sorry. keep going. >> the daily news report on ivanka trunk r trum trump is dis garbage. >> sure it is. they're trying to get people to buy the newspaper. we all know that the new york post is the finest ly occasion. yes, it happens to be published in this building. yes, we have happen to have the
12:16 am
same. >> but it's the best. >> -- overlords. that's my favorite newspaper. if katie couric asked me today, i would say the new york post. how about that. panel returns a little later. lots to talk about. first up, gina haspel, is that enough for her to lock in the cia director no, ma'am o not too little too late. coming up next. it's easy to think that all money managers are pretty much the same.
12:17 am
but while some push high commission investment products, fisher investments avoids them. some advisers have hidden and layered fees. fisher investments never does. and while some advisers are happy to earn commissions from you whether you do well or not, fisher investments fees are structured so we do better when you do better. maybe that's why most of our clients come from other money managers. fisher investments. clearly better money management.
12:18 am
12:19 am
12:20 am
great to have you in new york city. president trump's nominee to run the cia says the u.s. should never have conducted its enhanced interrogation program and because of that it looks like gina haspel will have enough votes to win confirmation. what a politician. she wrote a let tore the top democrat on the committee saying that after 9/11 the agency was too harsh on terror suspects. after getting the letter, senator warner says he will now vote for haspel. so did the democrat senators heidi higvote for the career sp. why is haspel so apologetic and
12:21 am
she is really the right choice to run the agency? let me bring in thomas massey. welcome back to the show, congressman. >> thank you, kennedy. i read that letter that she wrote to senator mark warner and to quote james clapper when we was caught lying to congress a few years ago, i think she's saying the least truthful thing -- the least untruthful thing she is think of at the time. she's just saying what she can to get her nomination. i'm very concerned about that. yes, she is president trump's nominee, but look, the whole obama deep state has circled the wagon to protect her and to endorse her. brennan has endorsed her, leon panetta, james clapper has endorsed her. these are all obama appointees to oversee his deep state and they're all for her. should than give somebody a little pause. kennedy: and panetta is a clintonite. two of the issues that
12:22 am
republicans have with those who have contested her nomination is that we shouldn't be relitigating, you know, these torture practices that happened, you know, 16 years ago. and i disagree with that. because i think the mentality that prevailed then could easily take hold now if god forbid we were in another situation like that. what do you say to people who have an issue with your personal iet ideology thaideology that wu for voting for someone like gina haspel. >> i don't get to vote but my senator does and he's opposing her. to your point, is a little bit of torture okay? no, i don't think a little bit of torture is okay. what i would say to those people who support her saying we shouldn't relitigate this, we should always relitigate this. kennedy: i agree. >> this makes our soldiers less
12:23 am
safe overseas when they get caught. the united states sets the standard for moral behavior or we should and we have really lowered the standard. kennedy: if you were a senator when john brea brennan was confd to head the cia, would you have voted for him? >> i would like to think i wouldn't have. but i can't put myself in their place. but to those folks in kentucky who are upset with rand paul for opposed gina pas has pal haspels time, the vote to con foirm comey was 9-1. who was the one senator who opposed comey's confirmation? it was senator rand paul. trust him on this and give him a little credit for that. kennedy: and i think he's explained his position well as oppose dz topposed to some demoo have talked themselves into voting for her. it seems like many of them had principles when they were questioning her but they seem to have conveniently abandoned them. and i think bernie sanders did a
12:24 am
horrible job of explain why he voted for brennan but cannot vote for haspel. there is so much inconsistency within the senate. >> exactly. and look, she's also been named as somebody who probably helped destroy the videotapes of those interrogations. we're talking about putting her in charge of the most secretive agency of the u.s. federal government. she's going to be the one overseeing their behavior. if she cease responsible for destroying evidence, how much can we trust her that she's going to be truthful to congress about her oversight. there's another thing that gives me a little bit of pause. she's a 30-plus-year career employee of the cia. typically -- in fact typically, you get somebody from outside of the organization to oversee it as a political appointee. i'm a little uncomfortable taking somebody from the deep state and making them the person who oversees that very
12:25 am
department. kennedy: yes, especially someone who intimately knows those spy tools inside and out and helped develop so many programs that have been turned unconstitutionally on unsuspecting americans. it's scary to think what someone like that who knows how to cover their tracks will do with the agency regardless of how they advertise their moral compass. thank you for your time coming up, are democrats fainlly turning their backs on nancy pelosi? the party is crying impeachment and the house minority leader isn't offering a tissue. my monologue is coming up. my monologue is coming up. plus dennis miller, her is here ♪ my monologue is coming up. plus dennis miller, her is here ♪ you said you're not like me, ♪ ♪ never drop to your knees, ♪

12:29 am
kennedy: oh, nancy, nancy pelosi 's days may be numbered. well, sure the old mayor is getting on in years but i'm not talking about her inevitable app you sicko. nancy may find herself on the losing end of the speakership, because she's not being hard enough on the president. fancyful nancy has seen impeaching mr. trump would be a gift to republicans a massive gas that would unite the right for all the wrong reasons and she is absolutely correct about
12:30 am
that, like infrastructure spending and pork both sides love impeachment it's like an energy-filled wave they can't witness to harness, republicans want to flirt with disaster but democrats could get crushed by a political tsunami of their own making. the pelosi pickle stems from some vocal deputies like texas rep al green who is on repeat and he and maxine waters are the wonder twins who couldn't spot an actual reason for impeachment if it bit them on the back side. green recently said this in response to pelosi's quote. i don't know if you can get impeached for being a jerk. take it away, al. >> trivializing bigotry also allows trump supporters to hypothesize how trump may be objectionable. he's not an impeachable which is not true. kennedy: that is true and also
12:31 am
true nancy's desire to freeze out the war left with freshman go getters means even if democrats narrowly take back the house nancy may not feel that warm wooden gavel in her death grasp. nancy, you're damned if you do and you're damned if you step in do-do. the only way impeachment succeed s is if republicans use it as a fear factor to rally the angry base against lazy dems who are still sore, queen hillary got shoveled off the throne. democrats have been calling for trump's impeachment since his hand was on that inaugural bible and it won't stop until the day he hands over the keys to the white house but is this really a wise move for the left? joining me now, comedian and host of the dennis miller option podcast, the one and only, the legend himself, dennis miller is back. hi, dennis. >> hi, ken id it how are you tonight? kennedy: i'm doing well. i think this is very interesting , because i'm trying
12:32 am
to figure out what the bigger gift to republican, nancy pelosi just existing in the realm that she is, or the talk of impeachment. what do you think? >> well, i first off want to say how personally saddened i am that there's a human being on the planet named al green who is ironically that tone deaf. kennedy: [laughter] >> as somebody who that's my favorite song that really hurts me and how many times do you think al rehearsed the word hypothesized? did you hear him go through that kennedy: yeah, i just biffed it. >> listen, i think that pelosi to me is the continental divide on why i think these two parties , these two factions, these two political mindsets are never going to agree. kennedy: yes. >> i'm sorry i can never concede that she's a bright woman who should be the speaker of the house and i know on the
12:33 am
other side they are so dug in, i think when they're probably alone, they go can you believe we've got all these old people out there, biden and bernie and pelosi and they rep us and we're trying to pitch kids. i assume when they're alone they have those things like planned parenthood does when they have lunch but i must say i will never be able to look at pelosi and say yes, she's a very bright woman who should be the leader of this country and i guess they're going to hate me for that but i don't get it. it seems like a cosmic joke to me, pelosi. kennedy: no and you bring up a really good point because if you're going to be in power for that long it seems like you have to have something. you have to have either charisma or intelligence or some sort of eq, the ability to read people and empathize with them. she seems to have none of that, and no one admits to liking her, they're all kind of scared of her, and the only thing they'll say positively is that she's
12:34 am
able to raise money but democrat s compared to republican s have had a really hard time raising money since president trump got into office, so why, you know, and i don't think impeachment is the thing to do her in. i think it's the fact that she's so unlikeable and there are all of these younger freshman house members who are like yeah, i wouldn't vote for her and i'm going to win again saying i won't. >> she'll destroy them. that's what she's got going for her. she is a constant reminder to me of how screwed up our political system is. when you look at her, you know everybody on that side of the outlooks up and thinks why her, why does she have to rep us, why does she have to front us and the fact is she's got the sharpest elbow. she would have nothing about destroying a young representative's life. she is an pashmina mannequin. she never shuts up. it's occasionally we have to
12:35 am
hook her like a falcon. she is more in over her head than a gay dwarf hitting on shaq kennedy: let's talk a little bit about impeachment. i think if the president were impeached he wouldn't be kicked out out of office an it would make him a hero, it would be the best thing to happen to him a money raising bonanza, energize his base and it would make the far left feel like they've achieved something. i mean that really is the one unifying thing in washington, will it happen? >> if i was trump i'd order a presidential order demanding it, tomorrow. say file articles of impeachment against me. this is screwing the country up. bring it on, what do you have? let's do this and let's see what happens and i'm not even kidding i would demand that they file articles of impeachment tomorrow , and say this shouldn't be what this election is about. let's do it right now if you have something, put it on the
12:36 am
table. if you don't, shut up and ride pelosi off into the sunset. i think that's what's going to happen. i think they've overplayed their hand so much, that i honest, i can't see a way he loses now and the fact that they all bet pelosi and whether they're afraid of her or whether they think she should front the party and bernie sanders and joe biden shows me that they're not as smart as they think they are. that is the old way, they're trying to pitch kids. kids must look up and go really? this is where i'm going to end up in the swimming pool and caccoon for god's sakes? i don't think it's going to work kennedy: it's not even that warm and the water is kind of stinky. dennis i can't wait to see you here in person. >> i'll be there next thursday kennedy. kennedy: the carpet will be so red you won't be able to tell if it's crimson or blood and that is the highest complement. >> if you can't get the carpet
12:37 am
get that republican congressman from kentucky, and by the way if we are going to water board people, i'd say that we use the liquid in the application but then eventually it's a drying agent and i think we can skirt geneva conventions there, there you go that's my advice. kennedy: and dennis miller, thank you so much. beautiful. all right the white house staff has gone through a lot of changes over the year, but the one thing that has remained constant, leaks. the president has weighed in tweeting, "the so-called leaks coming out of the white house are a massive over-exaggeration put out by the fake news media in order to make us look as bad as possible. with that being said leakers are traders and cowards and we will find out who they are." this comes just days after it was leaked that a white house aid said in a meeting that senator john mccain's opinion doesn't matter because he's dying anyways.
12:38 am
white house counselor kellyanne conway said she thinks some staffers could lose their job, so why can't the president plug the leaks? the party panel is back, jimmy f ala, jessica tarlov. i felt her comment was disgusting and she should apologize obviously upset senator mccain's family very much was incredibly sensitive. having said that what is the bigger issue what she said or that we know about it? >> i think the funny thing is that the leakers to me is the bigger issue and the fact that the white house is making that the issue and then people are offended i can't believe you think that, there are people who work in the white house who want the white house to have trouble. that's very bad. that's a huge issue. yes it's much bigger than someone being rude and insensitive. kennedy: jessica? >> i do think generally seeking it is a bigger issue it reflects extremely poorly upon kelly sadl
12:39 am
er, and the entire administration that there's a comment that could be made and there was no public apology especially senator mccain is still a sitting senator. not someone that has gone not only from this world but from the senate itself. as far as leaks go i do wonder if this works to trump's advantage because every type there's a leak of something like this we don't talk about novartis or at&t or what's going on with, you know, michael cohen or paul manafort getting struck down, he wanted his indictment thrown out for instance they rejected that, so it does focus on things people say what do i care what about tax cuts or things when you talk about gossip. kennedy: when you have other news channels that are focused solely on michael avanati, that's what you get. >> he's amazing. >> i can't go there. kennedy: you can't? >> it's a push because i think the comment is disgusting and i do think this is an issue of national security in terms of white house leaks that needs to be addressed like leaking out of
12:40 am
the white house has become this year's ice bucket challenge. it's like a thing now everybody is doing it. kennedy: there was an axe cross reporter who says everyone does it, it's like a mexican start off of leaks. >> see that's all they're doing and he does enjoy it he's one of the leakers. kennedy: 100%. >> at the end of the day the more the leaks come out the more they seem to matter less do you know what i mean? >> it's just another day. kennedy: and i hate to leak this but we are up against a hard break. tom, jessica and jimmy, thank you all so much for being here. wonderful wheel as well. coming up, remember all those republicans who promised repeal and replace? obamacare and then, you know, they didn't? democrats now campaigning on the controversial healthcare bill, is that really a winning strategy? peter sudeman joins me with his expertise, next. mom? dad? hi! i had a very minor fender bender tonight in an unreasonably narrow fast food drive thru lane.
12:41 am
but what a powerful life lesson. and don't worry i have everything handled. i already spoke to our allstate agent, and i know that we have accident forgiveness. which is so smart on your guy's part. like fact that they'll just... forgive you... four weeks without the car. okay, yup. good night. with accident forgiveness your rates won't go up just because of an accident. switching to allstate is worth it. feel the clawith powerful non-drowsy 24-hour relief from symptoms triggered by over 200 different allergens. like those from buddy. because stuffed animals are clearly no substitute for real ones.

12:43 am
12:44 am
kennedy: are you ready for this? democrats officially ready to run on obamacare, again, what? they even got a unified message blaming the gop for "sabotaging" the healthcare law leading to an increase in insurance premiums just before the mid-terms, is that true? is it going to work? here with me now peter suderman. is this a winning strategy for democrats peter it's very intriguing. >> i don't know that if it's going to be a winning strategy or not. i do think it's kind of telling
12:45 am
about where democrats are when it comes to obamacare because basically what democrats are arguing is that they passed a law, democrats passed a law over the unified very loud very consistent objections of republicans and now republicans are in power and democrats are whining republicans aren't running it the way democrats would. kennedy: and this is the logic that chuck uses all the time, so and democrats are pointing to an increase in premiums are most people who are still on the exchanges feeling that increase? >> most people won't feel it directly so republicans did two things, one is they cut off a series of subsidies to ensurers that the obama administration had been making those payments were illegal according to a federal judge, republicans brought this into constitutional compliance and in fact, the way the law is structured the way the subsidies are structured the majority of people won't feel

those increases at all. taxpayers and will that's a problem but the majority of people buying through the exchanges won't feel the increases. they created options for people to buy less legitimate regulated , less expensive plans and for people not getting hit with premium hikes that's an option they have. this is sour grapes from democrats in a lot of ways because republicans finally have power. republicans have been saying we don't like it we're against it so of course republicans aren't running it in the way democrats would and that's what democrats are complaining about. kennedy: democrats created the monster but republicans still haven't tamed it and taught it how to tap dance, peter, are we all going to die? >> i don't think we're all going to die. i do think that republicans still need to figure out exactly what it is they think about healthcare. they have basically taken repeal off the table so now they are in a weird uncanny valley middle ground where they are like we don't like obamacare but we'll keep running it but differently and democrats are like well we

kennedy: kristin stuart walked the red carpet completely bare foot at the con film festival to protest their ban on flat shoes, it will be forever remembered as the start of the me too movement , take your shoes off and air out your piggies because this is a topical storm top number one we begin at the mount olympus waterpark in wisconsin dells, wisconsin one of those old mom and pop joints where they fight for every dollar, oh, yeah, police say a man stole a chair from a group of guests at the waterpark, who did not let it slide rather than one chair they gave him about five, and one well-wisher even threw in a garbage can for good measure, and the craziest part is that it happened on mother's day so the wisconsin moms were once again forced to do the hardest job on earth, stop a bunch of drunken slobs from pummeling each other in a food court. oh, my gosh.
