Apparently not but we’re supposed to make a judgment based on them and the untrustworthy as fuck Chicago PD.

Career is the least of his worries at this point. False reporting to the police can be charged as a felony. 

because he wants too. 

*Or some rich white teenager’s girlfriend, and it simply wouldn’t _do_ to have the stain of an illegitimate child on your private school career, not to mention what they’d say at the country club.

making laws based on the theology of a limited group of its citizens bumps right into the whole Establishment Clause thing.

That only matters to people who care about his hypocrisy. Neither he, nor his family, nor the politicians who support him, nor the people who vote for him care what sort of sins (I do not believe abortion is a sin, but he and his ilk claim they believe it is) he has committed in the past. They care about what he can…

Yeah, I’m pretty sure it’s the “pro-life” people who are actually “pro-after-birth abortion” because they support policies that FAIL TO SUPPORT CHILDREN AFTER THEY’RE BORN. 

David O’Steen, executive director of the National Right to Life committee, told Politico that he hopes Trump will “continue to speak from the heart if he’s as shocked as most people are by the idea of after-birth abortions,” because apparently anti-abortion activists are trying to make “after-birth abortion” a thing…

Gee, what a surprise.

Does Israel deserve to exist as an ethnoreligious state? Why are so many people ok with Isreal being a lite theocracy when other theocratic states are lambasted in the same breath of politicians. 

I was uninvited from a nephew’s bar-mitzvah for claiming Israel is an apartheid state during a recent family gathering. Look, I can love Israel, the country of my religion, but I also need to call it when I believe basic human rights are being violated by said country. Sticking to my principals here and I will drown…

My biggest pet peeve is the presenation of Israel as “the only democracy in the middle east”.

It’s one of the oldest problems in the book for purportedly democratic governments: Israel would like to claim the land they captured in their wars with their neighbors openly by right of conquest, but they also don’t want to treat the people that were living there, and are now under their control, like citizens of…

Yes, it is so disingenuous when people conflate being against the policies of Israel the country with being against the Jewish people. Two separate issues entirely, but rather than address the substantive nature of the arguments about the way that Israel the country/government treats the Palestinian people, some…

Tell Congress that its not “good-vs-bad guys” because they’re the ones that overwhelmingly support the Israeli governments right wing policies.  Even our ‘opposition’ leader Chuck Schumer supported Trump’s inane embassy change.

There will always be higher turnover on the Hill because of the nature of the work. That’s normal. But you do see highER rates in Klobuchar and Lee offices. That part really isn’t normal. Plus that whole environment is really a small town. Staffers talk a lot because we all tend to know each other and look out for one…

From a memo assembled to instruct staff on those pesky other duties as assigned:

This is one of the stories where you find out who believes in feminism and who just wants white women to take the place of white men on the society’s totem pole. I mean, chalking up dismay at a boss throwing things at their staffers to “sexist double standards; if a man can do it, why not a woman?” Huh?

I mean “phrased a little better” is a bit of an understatement. Nuance on twitter never works, let alone when talking about a Jewish group (whether it be related to Israel or not) , so how a tweet simply referencing money would go down well in response to a tweet that doesn’t mention AIPAC once seems like a sloppy…

Israel is a country; not a religion.  Criticizing a political entity is not prejudice; despite what political lobby groups might tell you.
