The important thing to remember about any exceptions to abortion bans is that it will be impossible to actually get an abortion even if you satisfy the conditions for these exceptions. With abortion all but illegal in any given state, you’ll have trouble finding a doctor who actually performs abortions, and you’ll…

I did not.

The New York Time’s status as “the paper of record” is absolutely devastating their ability to do consistently decent work.

As a grey, allow me to predict, without looking, what”s mostly in the greys:

It’s hard to have a lot have a lot of hope right now, but one thing that’s great to see is how these racist goons are less and less able to use their “we’re just kidding” bullshit to squirm back under their rocks when they pull shit like this.

Setting aside Friedman’s terrible writing, he’s arguing that Trump’s supporters and allies are deluded and confused, and that Trump is tricking them, as opposed to the much simpler and more likely explanation: his supporters and allies are getting what they want from Trump, and rewarding him with their support.

Part 1

There are so many examples of successful ventures where as much, or more, training, complex equipment, risk, and urgency/importance (“need”) are involved that I can’t list them all. I’ll try:

Biden was the chairman of the judiciary committee during the Thomas hearings, so when he says things like “...She just did not get treated fair across the board. The system did not work.”, keep in mind he was the person in charge of the process.

There is no question that the person behind “I Brain You” is incredibly thin skinned, to the point where he/she bristles at helpful advice or input from flesh-and-blood people, in any situation.

Best not to talk about it. You know how human nature works: mention something only once, at one time, and everybody will remember it and think about it more and more when they never hear about it again.

Mr. Haviland, SIR! I respect your freedom of speech, but I must object, in the most strenuous terms to your presumptuousness that we would tolerate and slaughter or cannibalism without a robust, respectful, and open-minded debate.

“Clinton ultimately recommends holding hearings in Congress, as was done during the Watergate scandal, before an impeachment vote.”

“...During one game, Kate Lynn stampeded over Justin repeatedly, which, of course, did wonders for his fledgling self-esteem.”

Your analysis (and that of the Democratic leadership, presumably) assumes:

Agreed, just don’t take impeachment off the table, or foreclose on impeachment as a possibility, as Pelosi and Hoyer have done at various points.

“Policy Wonkery Is Our Passion, And It’s Something We’re Incredibly Good At and Serious About, Except This One Time, Where, Because of Obvious Structural and/or Political Factors, Our Policy Was Ineffective, Didn’t Actually Help Anyone, and/or Had Bad Unintended Consequences In Practice” Chapter 493, By The Democrats

Nobody cares.

Credit where credit is due: he resisted the urge to model a suit made of human skin.

“Look, I’m not a dead-eyed racist goon who goes out of his way to craft excuses for fascists; I’m a clever, witty, intellectual who deploys tracts making excuses for fascists ironically, to skewer what I perceive as anti-racist piety and incivility to public servants, something I truly believe is the greatest problem…
