I’m under the very distinct impression that Comey thinks he already paid the price for his undue influence on the 2016 POTUS election.

I like Splinter because sometimes the staff is aware. e.g. back in June of last year when AOC won her primary

Does that make Splinter the kind woman helping Nancy Pelosi and the Democrats break free of Donald Trump?

“I think the American people would be let off the hook if Donald Trump were impeached and removed from office”
::checks national popular vote::
::national popular vote did not go for Donald Trump::

So he means the electoral college? He means that they should not be let off the hook? Fine with me.

This is very good Deadspin. All of us are aware that nonhumans are treated as disposable by humans but human civilization also requires deliberate fictions about this treatment. We accept in our rational minds that great suffering occurs but we don’t want to think about it. Articles like this bring those deep thoughts…

I am checking Earther’s coverage yesterday today and the trolls were all over the dang place. Commenting is a cool idea but pretending that trolls should have the same posting privileges as useful people is a terrible false pretense.

There’s another blog in the G/O Media network which covers science news and they published an article about this new research.

This comment of yours is really good and maybe should be shown to the author of this piece

That too.

“Epstein is the line for some people” because humans tend to think actively sexually exploiting children is a bad idea. There are people who will go to bat for the work that David Koch did but few people are on Team Sex Trafficking of Children.

True but Donald Trump seems to be really unlikely to go to jail.

Sure. To be clear the “their” in my comment was a reference to MIT; I am/was glad that people are leaving MIT because MIT had an involvement with Epstein.

I was pleasantly surprised by how it wasn’t a trainwreck

Very glad that people continue to resign from MIT for their involvement with Epstein.

I dunno if I’ve ever heard of Meghan McCain, but I think it would be great if the festival could have an appearance by the daughter of a late Arizona Senator.

Fair they’ve been putting out some good new jams

If G/O Media had a festival, who would it try to book?

I either never learned that Bret Stephens was a never-Trumper or learned and already forgot. Both events seem as likely.

Because MSNBC is more interested in ratings than in helping America.
