I refuse to believe any version of this story where I have to root for Jefferson Beauregard Sessions, III.

Thank you for sharing that. Felipe and Letizia (two of the best educated royals anywhere) had to know they were sitting down with one of the dumber couples on the world stage, but imagine what they must’ve been saying to each other and their foreign minister on the flight home! The mind reels.

Ehhhh as long as he has carte blanche to discriminate against browns and poors, he’ll keep taking shit from 45.
But your idea is way better and I will root for it!!

Trump is right, HE doesn’t have an attorney general. The United States does.  Ideally, the AG is supposed to fight to protect everyone's rights.  Of course, it’s hilarious to me that all the shitty work Sessions is doing to torment minorities and immigrants is totally being ignored by his jagoff boss. Eat shit, Jeff!

• Senators are peer pressuring Ford into testifying on Monday. Not at all fucked up. [CNBC]

HAHAHAHAHAHAHA! That’s a good one....very imaginative....

...the Sahara isn’t in Spain? 

Not only that, it’s only going to get larger, because the Sahara desert is expanding.

“In an exclusive with The Hill, President Trump said, “I don’t have an attorney general.””

When has Jeff Flake ever not folded?

During a visit to the White House by the Spanish royal family, Trump wanted Spain to build a wall *** across the Sahara ***.

Jeff flake already folded. He said if ford doesn’t show up Monday they should move on with a vote.

“This seemed like a story that was worth hearing,”

The redemption of men must go on, at all costs. They are so valuable, so vital. In a couple of years, Ian Buruma would be given a platform by another powerful dude to claim he was taken down by an overly sensitive hit mob too. On and on it goes, the wheels of patriarchy in perpetual motion.

Exactly. She’s done a few things liars don’t generally do (if they’re clever).

I believe her too. People need to keep in mind she was a KID when this happened. Why didn’t she tell anyone back then? Probably because she didn’t know exactly what to say, didn’t want to become the talk of the school, thought she might get in trouble for being at a party with alcohol, etc. Why didn’t she tell anyone l…

I believe her. I had a similar experience: when I was a freshman in high school, a classmate trapped me in the then-under-construction gym. After a struggle, I escaped. I told no-one, even though my father saw me shortly afterward, saw I was upset and begged me to tell him what happened.

I absolutely believe her. 

The FBI is responsible for background investigations on any federal employee or appointee of power. Getting any sort of federal clearance requires an FBI background check that will go deep into your past. They are the organization best equipped for this task.

That hasn’t changed. She is still willing to testify, after a proper FBI background investigation that either wasn’t done on BK or was buried. The latter is most likely given that they had their binder full of women he didn’t rape ready and really played up how much he loooooves to coach teen girls.
