We’ve seen it before.

Rep. Maxine Waters (D-Calif.) said in a statement Thursday that she has seen an increase in the number of threats made against her ever since she encouraged people to openly confront members of Donald Trump’s Cabinet in public spaces. As a result, she has had to cancel some public appearances.

We keep talking about the dangerous rhetoric that is being thrown around by Donald Trump, those in his administration and the right-wing media that supports and enables them—but we keep getting shut down and told that we are the ones with the real problem, not them.

Rudy Giuliani has been President Donald Trump’s lawyer for less than a week, and he just walked onstage and gave the Beyoncé Coachella performance of his life.

On Monday, conservative right-wing zealot Sean Hannity paused his public fellating of Donald Trump and explained why it was totally cool that he received millions of dollars in government assistance and personally benefited from the “big government” and “welfare state” he publicly rails against.

So, remember last week when Fox News host Sean Hannity went all wild about the Michael Cohen raids, calling them a “witch hunt” and saying that special counsel Robert Mueller was “out to get the president”?

A few months ago, The Root began a series of stories under the name “I Tried It,” chronicling the experiences of writers who were willing to step outside their comfort zones to try things they normally wouldn’t consider.

It’s telling how fascinated Donald Trump and the people connected to him seem to be with the suspected sexual prowess and/or deviance of black men.

Alabama Republican Senate candidate and grown-ass man who still wears a cowboy outfi Roy Moore penned an open letter to the inflated-beach-ball-sized head that sits atop Sean Hannity’s neck Wednesday after the Fox News pundit and maker-up of things to scare white people gave Moore 24 hours to answer multiple…

Others, including The Root’s staff writer Michael Harriot, have already written about the support Sean Hannity received after some of his sponsors cut ties with him for having alleged child molester Roy Moore on his show to explain his tendency to date teens. We know, already, that this support at all costs is…

Those people are at it again. You know who I’m talking about. The ecru-colored citizens who turn beet red at facts and statistics, who wondered why they weren’t included in the phrase #BlackLivesMatter and who called it a “terrorist organization.” The taupe Americans who cried butt-hurt boo-hoos when football players …

If you voted for the moron who would rather spend his time being a messy Twitter bitch than doing the duties associated with the presidency, I regret to inform you that my dick will fall into a deep coma state whenever in your presence. You could look like the reason God created sex, but there is no way in hell I…

First and foremost, do we have proof that Eric Trump is not a vampire? He seriously looks as if he has actual vampire DNA; and if, in fact, the second Trump not named Ivanka is a bloodsucking revenant, then his comments made during a recent Fox News appearance make perfect sense.

Of all the reasons to loathe that noxious loudmouth Sean Hannity, my top choice is that the Fox News host consistently has the nerve to serve his lavish amount of stupidity with sides of hubris and sanctimony.

Haters gonna hate. It’s one of the most accepted aphorisms of all time, because hate is easy. Hate gets to conceal its identity under white sheets and pointed hoods as it lights crosses on lawns. Hate hides behind computer screens and anonymously hurls the n-word on social media. Hate smiles in your face and stabs you…

Ted Koppel performed a great service to his country in telling Sean Hannity to his face that he was “bad for America.” Hannity can simmer in his lingering anger over the widely shared clip that originally aired on CBS Sunday Morning as he sees fit, but it does not absolve him of the sins that led Koppel to make the…
