Yeah, and a lot of people who stay in the same job at the same org find themselves falling behind on the salary scale.  If you don’t get promorted, you’re losing ground to new hires.

I can see the age discrimination being a possibility, as a lot of tenure track professors do come in with a higher salary (with worse benefits and pension packages), but race? Nah. The most recent publication I can readily find for him is from over ten years ago. Outside of that, he has a textbook that he updated in…

5. Let’s be honest, he’s only there because of his race. There’s a more qualified black professor out of work and this jerk is complaining. How ungrateful!
6. It’s his own fault for not negotiating a better contract. 

1. Well if he just worked harder, they’d see his value and they’d pay him more
2. If he doesn’t like it, he can work somewhere else.
3. Has he really “earned” that additional salary. Seems like he’s overpaid to me.
4. He’s just looking for a handout.

White guy seeks *checks notes* r̶e̶p̶a̶r̶a̶t̶i̶o̶n̶s̶ free handouts?

Introducing doubt is all they need to do for the RWNJ media + Fat Nixon, so that’s all they feel they need to do.

Mike Turner was TRYING to prove that Mueller didn’t have the authority to ‘exonerate’ the president— and therefore it was just unforgivable that Mueller wrote that the president couldn’t be exonerated. He failed miserably, of course, because he got caught spinning around the drain of his idea when the clock ran out.…

False.

i have said, to many people....becoming president is the dumbest thing this man could have ever done, opens up all sorts of investigations into his business dealings and himself in general....something is going to come up...maybe not today....but c’mon.....

I think what scares him the most is the possibility that he will be arrested on the tarmac at Joint Base Andrews when he gets off of Marine One. Any judge in the country would remand him to custody (has extensive assets overseas, owns aircraft, and—oh yeah—would interfere rampantly with the trial via social media if…

Then Trump just started babbling in all caps the same way my sisters did after special counsel Dorothy Harriot finished her investigation and concluded that she was just going to whip everybody’s ass. 

So, question: how did the sock drawer come to be set aflame?

Nah, you’re right. But I think if you’re in that situation and your loved one is literally trying to propose to you and you just want to go on with your day, you might comply thinking “fuck it, at least if I do what they ask they’ll go away”.

“I felt humiliated, especially after one of my white friends made a point of asking them to check her bag for the T-shirt, but they refused to do so,”

It is in DC. It’s attached to a $100 fine. Obviously, it isn’t enforced, but it’s on the books as a crime.

Until YOU have lived MY life (or for that matter, the millions that feel similar due to the POLICES OWN ACTIONS), I would kindly ask you to STFU about things that YOU have no idea about.

That sounds a lot like protection money.

Sounds like “protection money.”

So stupid. But if the Police Union would help remove bad cops instead of fighting to keep them employed and paying dues, maybe fewer people would be killed and people wouldn’t have to fear the police.
