I was always distressed by how disrespectful (and often ignorant of the law) Judge Judy was to people who just needed a day in court. She was less than amusing when she claimed she always knew who was lying and who was truthful. But I gave up on her entirely when she heard the case of a woman whose abusive boyfriend…

Your conventional history, repeated on this forum countless times, just doesn’t make sense.  The same percentage of Sanders voters voted for Clinton as Clinton voters voted for Obama.  Trump voters, voter suppression, and the Electoral College gave us Trump.  We will have a repeat of 2016 because the sitting president…

My problem with the Biden candidacy is his weak strategy against Trump. Trump will campaign on the economy and that will be formidable in the suburbs. Biden will campaign as the anti-Trump, and it will be a losing plan. Oh, and he is a creepy old centrist who could not shine Bernie’s shoes.

They can stop the trial itself.  It is likely that Mitch would not have a trial.  He could even acquit the president on a voice vote without a trial.  But I agree that impeachment is the way to go because it is the right thing to do.

Your middle ground is really vague.  Is there a middle ground on the climate crisis?  Middle ground on reproductive freedom?  What is your middle ground on mass incarceration, private prisons, and the disproportionate minority population in prison?  Can you explain the “middle-ground” position on these before I return…

That would be a mighty short duking.  The Nazi alt-right outnumbers anything you could reasonably call “extreme left” by about 40-1.

She still says she did nothing wrong.

“the most qualified candidate in history.”  Citations needed.

Since you apparently memorized the Armstrong Report and have not read anything since, you could try the Ken Burns documentary.  It’s easier than reading.  As for your cherry picked quotes from the false confessions, you need to have the whole context of the interrogation to see how the detectives fed the information…

Secretary Clinton did a poor job in the position.  JFC all you have to do is read a little recent history.

It is not broadly consistent.  Clinton was impeached and tried in the Senate after an investigation that found almost nothing.

It’s time to pay attention to recent history.  This will allow you to support the candidate you actually want rather than the one you think is most ‘electable.’  The same percentage of Sanders voters voted for Clinton as Clinton voters voted for Obama -- yet nobody remembers PUMA and everyone mis-remembers the level…

Policing as we know it was not imported from Britain. GB police were responsible to the Crown, were national, carried no firearms, prosecuted their own cases, showed deference and respect to the court, and were hired and fired based upon merit. Police in US cities were responsible to local government, carried…

But many more Libertarians are anti-choice than are Democrats.  I can’t see any benefits for women’s rights other than vague appeals to the market and “liberty.”

Aggressive prosecution contributed to mass incarceration — more than any other factor it was the vehicle that carried the War on Drugs toward its destination of incarcerating more minority citizens in America than in any other nation. Kamala Harris was an aggressive prosecutor, and she shouldn’t be calling out anyone…

Of course we vote for Biden instead of Trump. The same percentage of Sanders voters voted for Clinton as Clinton voters voted for Obama. Trump voters and the Electoral College got us into this particular mess. BTW, why is that person who wants to declare war on China not grey, and I, the 65 year old college professor,…

The evidence (polls) show that Sanders is the most likely to recapture the Midwestern voters who switched from Obama to Trump. I may not vote for Sanders in the primary, but I will of course vote for him when he is the nominee because fuck Trump and his Nazi vulture administration. I would love to vote for Warren as…

Polls (the evidence) show that Sanders is popular with minorities, but you don’t buy it.  What other evidence do you not buy?  The I-know-better-than-the-evidence attitude is also a recipe for a second Trump term.

Everyone knew that Trump was a crime boss and a sex offender, many called him out on it, and now he is president. I think the next Democratic candidate can weather the socialist label. What we won’t be able to overcome is the low turnout that a lackluster, business-as-usual Democrat will generate.

Indeed, we didn’t “eat our own” in 2016 either. The same percentage of Sanders voters voted for Clinton as Clinton voters voted for Obama. The Electoral College, massive voter suppression, and Trump voters put Trump into office. Criticism in the primary, and this article, are very good things.
