So was slavery. Times change. 

This is all extremely standard and actually better than many Americans or other foreigners who are accused of spying or other crimes. Tho I’m surprised they didn’t have all the testimony and “witnesses” lined up. I guess even Putin can’t be bothered anymore at his sham trials when he’s focused on destroying Ukraine.

Might have gotten Kinja’d.

So, look, I know we’re trying to make this story visible and a “thing.” I gave Jez the benefit of the doubt when it came to Griner articles but this one is quite something.

I wonder why Republicans keep winning at fucking everything.

All chaps are assless, that’s why they aren’t called pants.

Liberals had ample warning this was going to happen and all they managed is to hold up signs and send more money to the Democratic Party. 

If Obama had done his job, honored his oath of office, and defended the Constitution, Kavanaugh wouldn’t be on the bench and this crisis wouldn’t be happening. Same with RBG’s selfish decision to remain on the court so she could swear in President Hillary.

It’s a bitter irony that this is probably the best thing that has ever happened for this site. 

Yep. You can’t write about the fall of Roe without talking about the part that modern feminists played in it. The Bernie obsession in 2016 is one part, the other being how they neglected abortion rights and took them for granted, instead focusing on other superfluous fights while conservatives played the long game.

You seem to be under the sad and extreme misapprehension that democracy the US works on a “proportional representation” basis. It does not. In works in an deeply archaic representative democracy way, and is subject to extreme gerrymandering and voter suppression.

I’m seeing a lot of comments here blaming voters but not a single one calling the democratic party out for their *many* unforced errors on this. If this had been a priority in the last 20 years for the democrats we elected, rather than protecting stock trading and their right to govern well into senility, things would…

It’s very weird to see Jezebel rewrite it’s attitude to the 2016 elections. Most of the writers have left now, but this site was decidedly anti Hillary Clinton.

The Dems currently control the White House and both chambers of Congress.

Because its a dumb concept. Take allegations seriously? Sure. Investigate, great. But blindly believe? nah 

Good for him. On to the next pointless topic...

She was found guilty of defamation. End of story.

If this is what you’re truly bitching about here I’m not sure you watched the trial. You might want to update yourself on the facts in evidence.

What exactly are you going on about? That a celebrity parties? That a rich man spends his money? That a dillettante tries his hand at guitar?  Seriously, how does any of this affect you in any way?

Ya’ll sure do have a hard-on for Depp. He’s moving on with his life. Big whoop. Many of his fans became fans after watching the trial in which there was so much damning evidence against Heard in terms of her abuse against him. People are coming to the realization that it’s ok NOT to believe all women when they say…
