I’ll play. Yeah, I did. I was pissed at the way he handled the financial crisis, too - I’m living in one of the Ground Zero states where it happened, and even with all of the financial gains the economy has made as a whole, my state STILL hasn’t recovered fully.

This is the logical, if not extreme, conclusion to conservative ideology. In 2001, Justice Antonin Scalia, in a case called Alexander v. Sandoval, basically gutted the Civil Rights Act of 1964 by essentially reading in a mens rea requirement for discrimination. (Link to Wikipedia article: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wik

Criminal Justice reform is a low priority for EVERYONE, because it’s hard. It’s virtually political death for any criminal defense attorney to choose the profession they’re in, because it makes us uncomfortable. Disagree with me?

Guys. I’ve just decided to sell the most amazing invention. It’s called “Aluminum Wrap.” It’s going to cost $75 per roll, because it’s made strictly from recycled aluminum cans, and while it’s flexible, it’s also a little stiff - so you could wrap food in it.

They regularly train in deescalation and conflict

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.
