Ah, Tigerbeat for budding autocrats. Sad!
It’s terrifying that he thinks the President can decide who gets prosecuted in this country; that’s the job of an independent Justice Department. Letting the president dictate who should or shouldn’t be prosecuted is for authoritarians, not democracies.
One the one hand, I’m happy to read that Turkey is finally doing something right lately but on the other, this is like when Dick Cheney gain one human point for changing his mind about LBGQ rights because of his daughter.
Briebart...nyet.
Ergodan, abe, duerte, putin... i should have seen trump coming.... but i still cant believe so many idiotd stayed home or voted for third parties.
“Suck it, my daughter is above the age of consent.”
Here’s a novel idea! How about we continue to condemn the practice & educate people on why this is fucked up, instead of giving them a loophole to fuck little girls? Crazy talk I know.

Pence won’t bring about the end of the world - for most people. He will however severely cut back or outright remove many groups’ civil rights.

The Times needs to push back on this, HARD.
Step 1 in delegitimizing real investigative reporting. He knows that smaller papers take note of what bigger papers cover and respond to. If he makes the NY Times seem like a tabloid he can then make the National Enquirer seem legit. Who knew you could be a dissident just by subscribing to a big newspaper (which I…
Next “8" years?! Last time I checked, Trump hasn’t been re-elected.
