I believe so. Isn’t that nice?

And the best part of the best part of the best part is that Mueller probably wouldn’t have anything to do with anything if Drumpf hadn’t fired Comey. That was the first domino. He literally did this to himself.

By all accounts Mueller is one of the finest prosecutorial brains in the US. He has undoubtedly been using NY State law to charge the bulk of Trump’s associates for exactly this reason

Given his client, I would have expected KFC paraphenalia!

Trump is just what Hillary referred to him as during the debates - a puppet. He knows nothing of policy. He is there to sign bills that are passed by the GOP. Nothing more. The real villains in all of this are the GOP. This is their last-ditch effort to retain control of anything to avoid going the way of the Whigs.

Minor correction: Bigly. Trump is bigly mad.

As a recovered Catholic, I find these decrees encouraging.

Yeah but Roseanne Barr is kind of a shithead when it comes to trans folks, so it wouldn’t be surprising if that carried over into the show.

I just don’t see it either. If anyone might have voted for Trump in that family it was Dan and even that would be a huge stretch since he wasn’t an asshole.

I just don’t see Roseanne Connor as a Trump supporter. Would she really be ok with Trumps, or Republicans, attitude towards LGBTQ people considering her support of one of her best friends coming out and how she tells off her husband for being weirded out by it? I don’t buy it.

The AP reports that Avenatti wants to depose the president and his attorney for “no more than two hours”

Michael Avenatti is fast becoming my favorite lawyer ever. All he does all day is go on the cable shows Trump watches and troll the shit out of him on an hourly basis. Someday, in the brand new Resistance Plaza in D.C. (after the coming purge), Avenatti will get his own memorial statue. 

The brilliance of this move is just awe-inspiring.

It’s going to be really funny if this turns out to be the thing that brings him down. Not collusion with the Russians, not his total lack of qualifications, not his disastrous policy “ideas”, but the fact that he and his lawyers were incompetent in trying to pay someone to keep quiet about an affair that happened a…

That was a taxpayer-funded facility making an exception for a small segment of a single religion. I think the initial legal call was right (you can’t shut the place to half the population for the benefit of a relative few), even if I understand why the facility initiated those hours.  

Wait so I shouldn’t be allowed to use a public facility I’m paying for with my taxes because a certain religion would really like to keep being misogynist? A solid solution to me would be for the religion to stop being misogynist.

Why would employment be different? (Also, practically speaking, if you allow gender-restricted spaces that facilitate networking among fancy, successful people, that is a gender limitation on employment I thknk?)

I was born and raised in WV. I was working at the closest hospital to the Upper Big Branch Mine when it exploded, we were preparing for a mass-casualty situation and only got one patient, a guy who was at the mouth of the mine when it blew up. While I personally didn’t know anyone who died, I know many people who knew…

“Audrey Gelman, who co-founded The Wing with Lauren Kassan, conceived of it as a pit-stop for highly mobile women who were tired of changing outfits in the bathrooms of chain coffee shops and freeloading Wi-Fi from hotel lobbies.”

When RBG was still practicing law (i.e. before she became a judge and then Supreme Court Justice), she made her reputation as a civil rights lawyer challenging gender discrimination. She started out by challenging discrimination against men, which allowed her to build up a solid body of case law in which old white men…
