Let’s hope the Senators don’t show him special deference just because he’s a former colleague. Sessions has shown that he’s a dishonest, authoritarian, power-hungry little troll. He doesn’t deserve any special respect from the Senators just because he’s been out to dinner with them. I’m looking at you, Susan Collins.

I do not care about this at all, unless it results in Sessions going to jail. Otherwise, it is another show resulting in nothing, and even impeachment of 45 is insufficient “justice” in my opinion and will just result in a more effective yet equally evil individual in power.

I’ll play counterpoint. What else did you expect the defense to be?

this is the lawyer’s job. I’d be shocked if someone who was supposed to represent a defendant was like “nah fuck it lock em up”

That’s the point of the defense to discredit the accuser. The question is is there enough evidence to get to beyond reasonable doubt.

Shut the fuck up, Zaphod

i have hard time blocking someone’s adult career choices for the monster they were during puberty. what he did was absolutely atrocious and he should be in counseling for life, but he was a teen and i believe in rehabilitation over retribution especially for crimes committed so young. plus shoving people like him into…

In all honesty, does anyone expect the typical rapist defense to be anything BUT “she’s a liar” and/or “she wanted it”?

Color Commentator: “....what a touching story, let’s hope that kid beats cancer. And speaking of touching stories about children, Tom can you tell us why the Ducks won’t be facing Luke Heimlich today?”

What’s a pederast, Hemmerling?

What is the moral way to handle this situation? It’s a given his crimes are horrible. Should he not be allowed to pitch in a major college program? Any college program? Should he not be drafted nor play professional baseball? Should he be able to work a different job?

6 year olds, dude... That creep can throw, man.

If only there was a fool-proof way to avoid this issue. Some sort of maneu-*is swallowed whole by a trapdoor to hell*

I guess once they realized that Trevor Rosenthal wasn’t Jewish, it was all systems go.

I also love that “incredibly focused” line, like we’re all dumb enough to believe that this family of certified pieces of garbage are all deep, deep in intense thought on how to Make America Great Again. Not just merely focused, but INCREDIBLY focused, more focused than anyone’s ever seen anyone focus on anything…

Ivanka’s “job”: Show up somewhere dressed expensively, look concerned/understanding, nod, mention the word “women”, and the day’s work is done!

Jeremy unleashed his inner Johnny Rico Suave.

They are talking about him looking unhappy and miserable here. Which. That’s how he looks.

When was the last time the children of our president were off limits? I’m CLEARLY not advocating being horrible to a child, but the obama girls were called monkeys for 8 years, and im pretty sure Chelsea was CRUCIFIED for existing. So you’ll have to excuse me for not caring that this post, and most of the…

Someone was stressing the importance of hand holding like a normal human couple the whole helicopter ride over, and this was all Trump and Melania could manage, and that aide in the helicopter was all “Fine. Whatever. Close enough I guess” and then they had a quick drink from a flask probably and squawked out “it’s a…
