Where is your evidence?

I have a professional job, have been called “shrill” and “bitchy” because I was forceful and refused to take shit from anyone, went through a divorce, and was a single mother who faced repercussions and ridicule at work when I needed to care for my child. I AM A FEMINIST HERO, TOO! Who knew? I thought I was just an…

Absolutely. Jeffrey Toobin’s The Run of His Life clearly makes the case that Clark’s arrogance about the case and her own abilities were the primary reason that the government lost a case that really was unloseable. For example, although the defense relied heavily (and successfully) on expert jury consultants, she…

Wait, wait, so a country that THROWS WOMEN IN JAIL FOR MISCARRIAGE is now pushing for pregnancy prevention?

Fun fact: Abortion is 100% illegal in El Salvador. Not even for the health of the mother or the baby or in the case of rape and incest.

Well, maybe they’ll at least help women get improved access to birth control?

I used to live in FL, where Rubio’s hypocrisy got more coverage than it did nationally. He’s on his fourth religion. At one point, his family were Mormons. He attends Catholic church ‘round election time to appeal to Florida’s many Latino voters, who are mostly Catholic.

I think it’s a combination of factors. First, civics used to be widely taught in 60's and 70's, either in history or as a separate course. That isn’t the case as much anymore. If the information isn’t learned as a kid, it’s less likely that a person will pick it up later in life. Anecdotally, I know that taking AP…

Sheindlin would be a lot better than Thomas. At least she’d ask questions.

They were just using their black highlighters to point out all the most important stuff!

Christ, people. Use your libraries; you’re already paying for them.

Sorry, but the idea that Hillary is better on foreign policy is among the most pernicious, demonstrable falsehoods of contemporary Democratic politics.

Very nice of you to leave out the fact that Planned Parenthood’s President Cecile Richard’s daughter works for Clinton and Planned Parenthood has donate to Hillary’s in the past (sorta to Bernie’s point about being apart of the DNC establishment)...but cool story.

No article about the activities of Ken Paxton would be complete without a mention that he was indicted for securities fraud nine months after being elected Attorney General.

There have been eleventy GOP debates to the Dems’ 0.75, and all their scary, nation-ending policy positions are obvious by now.
