Trump’s attorneys need to be referred to the bar for disciplinary action. It’s one thing for Trump to do theatrics—he’s a clown and his lawyers can’t really *control* him—but the attorneys are officers of the court, presumably seasoned trial lawyers, and for sure know better than to be making downright impermissible…

At least you can comfort yourself with the knowledge that they're outliers. Cuban boomers overwhelmingly support Trump. Dude comes to town and they come out with the pots and pans as if Fidel died all over again.

At least where most of my elders are concerned, it’s a facially hypocritical stance they’ve taken, and they’re not remotely phased by that fact. Truly, in the parlance of our people: “Bro, que sin verguenza!”

“Probably when Biden gets re-elected this time he’s gonna totally codify Roe.”

Oh I get that it’s effectively the same—I just happen to feel personally affronted and ashamed when I see a fellow Cuban-American millennial pull this shit. When I found out Enrique Tarrio is Afro-Cuban, I about died inside. I was so embarrassed I thought “is this what it would feel like to shit my pants in front of a…

Had to hold my breath while I looked her up. I saw the Hispanic name and that she’s a Florida congresswoman, and I immediately braced myself for the overwhelming shame of discovering yet another Cuban-American who got into politics to carry water for white supremacists and Christian nationalists. Fortunately for me,…

I've seen that as well, but I was specifically addressing WillSelfDestruct's argument that these Gaza protestos aren't calling on people to not vote for Biden.

If it were the case that Republicans were now finished stripping away reproductive rights (whether abortion or contraception,) and were ready to move on from the topic, then you’d be correct. But that’s *not* the case. The simple fact of a Democrat sitting in the White House is a huge protection for reproductive…

“I don’t see the protesters saying not to vote for Biden.”

If what they really want is a ceasefire in Gaza, they’re not likely to get it from a Trump White House. They’re overwhelmingly more likely to get an escalation and broadening of the conflict. Recall when Trump relocated the US embassy to Jerusalem? These are not the actions of a man who wants to deescalate anything.

Hell, if Trump were in office, this would probably have already erupted into a full-blown regional conflict. We’d probably be bombing Lebanon and Yemen (and not just the Houthis,) around the clock.

“So, basically, a room full of folks who could solve most of the world’s problems with a check if they wanted to but...don’t!”

“Otter you have gone full sea lion.”

I get that history is written by the victors, and that that makes certain historical accounts inherently unreliable. However, by your own admission the narrative provided in the film (and presumably the book, which I’ve not read,) portrays at least some Osage women as having been been more cognizant of the proverbial…

“Raichik notably does not live in Oklahoma, nor does she have any sort of background in education or literature”

Hammer hasn’t actually worked since 2019 and is seemingly a pariah from the entertainment industry—how much longer before he’s a totally irrelevant nepo-baby trust fund guy whose poor behavior is foreseeable and not newsworthy?

Yup.

Is there a documented alternative narrative, perhaps from Osage historians or historical documents, that depict Mollie behaving in a way that would have been more satisfying to you?

“It’s worth noting: This is the 3rd time Gerwig had a picture nominated for Best Picture but was passed over for a Best Director nomination.”

It’s less about Democrats having lost badly there (though that’s certainly something worth considering,) so much as abortion rights lost badly *in that district*. In other words, while KY as a whole voted down the anti-abortion amendment, the counties that make up the Fifth Congressional District, when looked at as a…
