Hello from CLE, Ohio.

I understand the game Nancy Pelosi is playing. I don’t agree with it, but I understand it. I’ve heard criticism that talk of impeachment exists only because it makes liberals feel better. That the impeachment process will soothe liberal hatred of Trump. Maybe there’s some truth to that.

I’m glad you're okay. That's terrifying.

He really lost me at Dave Matthews. Dude, pull off a mayonnaise label and stick it on your head. You’re done.

Pelosi is protecting moderate Dems, who after begging her to tamp down on impeachment discussions. Like it or not, Barr’s 4 page summary did exactly what it was meant to do - convince a lot of low-information moderates that Trump was exonerated and the investigation is over. These people see impeachment as Democrats

Sorry. I wish it were true, but I don’t buy it. Mueller ran a tight ship - no leaks. If the press couldn’t weasel anything out of that team, I don’t see how Mr. Wolff did.

Na huey, bladt-suka.

This is huge. HUGE. The DA is the prosecutor in this case. DAs almost NEVER complain about judges. 

We have to address white male Democrats, or more accurately, white male Sanders supporters. I read a poll (damned if I can’t find it now) that said 26% (TWENTY SIX PERCENT) of Sanders supporters would vote for Trump if Elizabeth Warren wins the primary.

Your comment proves my exact point. You can be a defense attorney, but it’s a career killer. Defense attorneys can never run for office because of attitudes like yours.

Stuff You Missed in History Class just did a great interview with her. She's writing a second book getting hard numbers about how white women financially benefited from slave ownership.

Don’t come to Ohio then. We have the same bill, enacted last month

Let’s see the “pro-lifers” come out against this bill and show their true colors.

Columbus Ohio is CENTRAL Ohio, which you would know if you truly grew up here. You would also know that Columbus had hard red property lines for its black community until the 1980s - and when a black family moved into Upper Arlington (C’bus suburb) in the early aughts, they had bricks thrown through their windows. And

Hooray!

And the state coercion - sorry, regulation - of women’s bodies continues apace.

Aww! I wanna go! 

Can’t find the source, but this new requirement is going to limit the number of disenfranchised people who can register to vote to less than 1%. Short of a Go Fund Me paying off all of their fees, these people are effectively still disenfranchised, and Amendment 4 is essentially moot.
