Yeah, when this broke I was like “Yeaaah I’ve heard through the grapevine that he’s got a reputation of being a creepy asshole,” so I was not the least surprised. I don’t know anyone personally who’s clerked for him, but I do have friends of friends who clerked at the Ninth and had stories.

Hah!! I KNEW we’d see this toad’s name on the list sooner or later. He’s a notorious swine. The kind that addresses female attorneys as “honey” in court.

It was made clear this week during the campaign that Trump does not fully understand fuck all.

Putting Slenderman Jared in charge of anything is the equivalent of the teacher giving the really hard math problem to the stupid kid who licks the windows.

Yeah! Jared Kushner who always looks like he just farted, is on it.

her bodyguard (Nosferatu)

I hate him so much.

Not terribly surprising. Kozinski has always had a reputation as someone who is a nightmare to clerk for, especially for his female clerks.

If there is a structured, bipartisan (and I mean truly bipartisan) effort to clear sexual harassers out, it will go a long way toward getting fewer shithole people in Congress. Read this interesting blog post on the Al Capone theory of sexual harassment recently.

I read the article and you finished it with the kicker at the end...”President Ronald Reagan appointed Kozinski to the 9th Circuit Court in 1985, the Post notes.” Makes you think about Trump’s GOP quietly packing the courts in 2017.

I go to starbucks in two situations: 1) when there is no possibility of anything else that is OK coffee, 2) it is peppermint mocha season, because for whatever reason their peppermint syrup is different and way more pepperminty than any other coffee shop and peppermint lattes are essentially sugary crack for me.

Had more Bernie supporters come out and supported Jill Stein...

My only complaint about MM’s post is that she liked Ivanka’s dreck.

From my admittedly NOT fancy art days, whenever someone was interested in purchasing my work from the dealer they were very rarely making a spontaneous purchase. So why the fuck didn’t an Art Basel rep go to DiCaprio’s place to finish the sale? What idiot does business this way?

and a few of their loved ones is the biggie. The NFL is a danger to the public because it’s players are large, violent and as we now know, missing the part of the brain that handles impulse control.

Not to mention that the CTE that they are all getting will kill plenty of them (and a few of their loved ones) before they are old enough for social security. There’s that.

Ryan gives me the creeps. True believers in cults that think the poor should be thrown under the bus and that women should not have the right to vote always do.

She’s been good. But she also has a bit of a tendency to veer off of the path of the verifiable. Her ideas are interesting, but a lot of them are just ideas and still worth a hefty grain of salt.

Deutsche Bank is going to be answerable for a lot - and they most certainly do have ties to both Trump and to the Kremlin. I think the forensic accountants will be busy for some time to come. Of course if someone would just release his tax returns it would likely happen so much quicker. Rachel Maddow has a pretty good…

Are there ties? Yes. Has Trump received loans from Russian sources? Most likely. Do those sources have ties to Putin? Yes. That’s still not the same as Putin (by which I presume you to mean the Kremlin) directly bankrolling Trump. I’m sorry, but he’s not the Manchurian Candidate. He’s just not. He’s dangerous and ugly…
