It is relevant when you’re trying to impose your beliefs on people who don’t share them. Barrett has written articles and given lectures where she encourages law students to use the law to create a kingdom of God. She’s entitled to her beliefs but when she views the law as a vehicle to impose her beliefs and therefore…

Says the troll who knows nothing about nothing. Don’t bother responding, I don’t waste my time with idiots who only parrots right wing talking points they don’t understand. 

All of this! I think it’s so important to push back on the idea that victims need to forgive their abusers or that healing is contingent on forgiveness because it puts the burden on the victim. The hard work needs to be done by the person who committed the harm, not the person who was hurt. Your comment perfectly…

I know a former public defender who’s in private practice now. They used to joke about printing “You have the right to STFU” on the back of their business cards and to pass them around as a way to not only inform the public but also get business. I thought it was hilarious and a much needed service to the community.…

It happens all the time. Cops are trained to get and keep people talking and they’re legally allowed to lie. Even if you think you’re giving completely innocuous or exonerating statements, they will find a way to use them against you. My personal favorite is when they tell you “We’re here to help you, you just need to…

You’re on the wrong website. Why don’t you go back to Breitbart where your lies will be believed by other intellectual midgets like you.

What an incredibly clever and sophisticated come back. I’m sure your two brain cells spent all night coming up with it. 

What do we make of Republicans’ desperate efforts to slime an incredibly accomplished woman by insinuating she only got to her position because she slept her way to the top? This is what Republicans did to Kamala Harris earlier this year by insinuating she only got to where she is because she briefly dated Willie…

The superb job you’re referring to is using the same tactics that are used to intimidate, harass, and terrorize people who are far more vulnerable than Chris Watts so no you can’t divorce politics from this case. The Greeley District Attorney’s Office and cops on this case are constantly bringing up Chris Watts to…

Fuck 42?! God I’m old. 

Please don’t valorize that detective or law enforcement in Weld County. Weld County is notorious Trump country with racist and xenophobic law enforcement which targets immigrants from Africa and Latin America who work in the meat packing plants which is one of the few real industries there. They actively work with ICE…

James Franco is middle aged?

I’m not usually on the side of a deadly disease, but go ‘Rona, go! I hope it kills both of them in the next week. After all, Trump hits all the high risk factors- obese, over 70, and broke!

She’s really leaning into her Marie Antoinette tendencies during that call, isn’t she? 

There’s a small country’s GDP worth of Botox in Ivanka’s picture. And hopefully they all go to hell.

Totally agree. I know people are going to say that Trump will spin it as he really won the first debate and Biden is scared to go up against him again but the only people who will believe that nonsense are his supporters. There’s no way Trump is going to follow the new rules- whatever they turn out to be- because his…

It’s not that the media didn’t learn anything from 2016, it’s that they cared more about ratings/clicks/circulation then and that’s the only thing they care about now. Trump is good for their business even though he’s destroying the country, the planet by ignoring the science on climate change, and their own industry…

What the fuck is she doing in that picture? Amy Coney Barrett may be a straight up Aunt Lydia but Ivanka is pure Serene Joy. But less charismatic.

My husband and I felt the same way during the 2018 midterms and decided to do a media black out. This was hard for me because I did election protection for the Democratic Party so there were TV’s everywhere showing the results of races (it was heartbreaking to see how close Beto, Stacey, and Gillum came to winning.)…

There was an article about Ivanka’s first book which included an anecdote about how she and her brothers couldn’t have a lemonade stand because they lived on an estate. So what they did was force their employees to buy the lemonade. Ivanka clearly thought it was an anecdote about how she’s always been entrepreneurial…
