But with about two months left in Donald Trump’s first ONLY term...

He was IN the Hobbit movies!

It must be nice to be proud of your parents. I live in Maryland and after four years of the cold shoulder that my parents have gotten from their three kids and five grandkids for voting for Trump in 2016, my parents snidely wrote in our slightly-less-vile-than-other-Republicans governor, Larry Hogan. As if Joe Biden

If you think the way you feel isn’t affected by the news you consume I have sad news for you.

More to the point, why do we need a story about how Mr. Abram’s forgiveness? This is one of the few times I disagree with a Root story.  If Mr. Abram needs to forgive to move on, that’s one thing.  But when it’s presented to us as news it subtly suggests everyone else can go ahead and forget about it.  No.

So glad the school cop protected her precious rights and made sure she didn’t incriminate herself further.  Also wonderful to know the school cop was initially going to let her go with a warning and perhaps a handshake, wink and nod.

Man, this is such a ratings grab it makes me want to puke.  I’m only surprised they outbid CNN for the rights to host this spectacle.

So he was already on rocky terms at work?  Nevermind the fact that he worked for a supervisor who was comfortable using the n-word with an employee, which kind of says the entire place was OK with a racist running things.  No way that effected how he was viewed at work.

They say a prosecutor can get a grand jury to indict a ham sandwich.  I guess that doesn’t apply if the sandwich is also a cop.

So Trump is worse than COVID-19 according to Gaetz. Got it.

... and are about to vote Republican again.

Nobody buys Trump as a religious man.  He couldn’t even decide whether he preferred the Old or New Testament.  I guarantee he couldn’t tell you what either of them were.

Everything I’ve read about this seems to place all the blame for this incident on her terrible dorm mates. How are the cops not equally (or more) responsible for how terribly this turned out? The accusers lied that she threatened them with scissors. Clearly she wasn’t still threatening them even in their fictitious

And keep in mind, whatever they have to say was compelling enough to a judge to force a “tremendously uncommon” decision.

... the release of the recordings will also satisfy the request of a grand jury member, who earlier on Monday filed a notice of a motion (pdf) asking for the recordings to be released and for jurors to speak freely about the process.

Hillary calling him Donald through the entirety of the first debate in 2016 was one of the few times I can remember the normally unflappable Trump visibly agitated. He’s adept at shrugging off the shame of baldfaced lying, but he couldn’t take it when a woman had the gall to speak to him so familiarly and

Actually, they failed to demonstrate anything “illegal” occurred in the arrest and brutal detainment of Freddie Gray.  That’s the point.  Almost everything is legal for a cop doing his duty of oppressing minorities.

If they’d been indicted it wouldn’t have gone anywhere. Even when DA Marilyn Mosby charged the cops in the murder of Freddie Gray it amounted to nothing because everything in our criminal justice system is designed to leave police officers free to do their duty: keep black people down. If that means killing a few

It’s mind numbing that the only repercussions for state sanctioned murders of black people are changing pictures on food labels and the occasionally postponed sportsball game.
