US citizens have been imprisoned in Egypt for years, just for being at the wrong time and place during the coup. Pence has taken up their cause, and maybe it will do some good.

Even a lunatic religious fanatic will occasionally do something good. It doesn't change my opinion of Pence, but I hope those prisoners are freed.

Global heating denialists are using phony scientific journals to create an appearance of denial from climate scientists.

US citizens: oppose the saboteurs' plan to authorize oil drilling on US coast lines.

Remember how people used to call someone a "Neanderthal" meaning "brutish and subhuman"? And white supremacists used to claim that blacks were "more like apes"?
