“You’ve put me on display here,” Hoffman told Oliver, seething but never raising his voice or leaving his seat. “You have indicted me. … That’s not innocent until proven guilty.”

Preach.
This is what being an ally looks like! Thank you, John Oliver, for using your privilege to hold Hoffman accountable. For any men wondering ‘what do I do’, this is it. You speak up and don’t let abusers get away with idiotic responses.
Born too late; if you had been alive for the 1984 Olympics you would have experienced a lifetime supply of free Big Macs in a two-week span. Thanks again to the Kremlin for the assist.
But he was allowed to get away with it when he did it on the Superman Returns set. A film that was both a critical flop and failed it’s projections. He didn’t just get away with it either, he went on to do multiple comic book movies. Mind you at some point in that period, two different men sued him for molestation and…
Part of me thinks this ‘health matter’ could just be a cover for Singer laying low ahead of even more damning harassment/assault allegations.
Or, maybe, the way she gets through every day is by telling herself that those past assaults happened because she did X,Y,Z and as long as she never makes those mistakes again she’ll be OK.
Look, some women can be the most ardent supporters of an oppressive patriarchal system. Pam has survived in spite of/by virtue of her physical attributes all her life and can’t see the forest for the trees.
Technically he wasn’t elected until January, when the electoral results are officially counted & announced in Congress.
Nope. If the Obama administration is backing sanctions against Russia, and you tell the Russian ambassador “don’t respond to it, we’ll just cancel the sanctions after the Inauguration,” you are clearly violating the Logan Act. Whether it’s unconstitutional or not is for the courts to decide.
Actually, it is. The Logan Act makes it unlawful for any citizen of the US, without the consent of the US government, to speak to any foreign official in relation to any dispute or issue of controversy. By negotiating with Russian officials with regards to sanctions without authorization from the Obama administration,…
It’s a crime to lie about it to the FBI and Congressional committees, and to ask the head of the FBI to drop the investigation, then fire him when he doesn’t.
They were never buying an administration; just renting a jackhammer.
Welcome to the Sailor Moon fandom... “Jokes about Makoto’s ‘talent’ are often made by fans. This is a reference to DiC’s dub episode 50, ‘Mirror, Mirror on the Wall’ (episode 56, ‘Steal Mamoru’s Kiss! An’s Snow White Strategy’), where Lita said she should play the part of Snow White because she had more ‘talent,’ at…
I think there are two different aspects of this. The first is his atonement to the victims and other work toward reformation. The second is his fitness for office and his ability to do his job. Often, those two things go together, in part because the worst offenders completely fail at the first part and don’t make any…
My grandpa always used “diction” as his go-to euphemism. As in “Dolly Parton has great diction.” You mean boobs, grandpa, we get it.
Pretty telling that “talent” was the chosen substitute word for “pussy”, isn’t it? Because that’s all a woman is good for in the world of Trump and MAXIMUM GOLF.
Oh no! Not a show I had no idea existed until just now!
Minnesotan, here, who is finding it hard to get too worked up about Franken. Does what he did make him an asshole? Sure. Does it make him a predator? I don’t think it does. That picture is the work of a jerk who thinks he’s funny because he’s blind to his male privilege. The grab-ass... that’s more creep-ish, though I…
We can’t allow Franken to quit and sit by idly while the brain-dead people of Alabama elect a child predator!
