Don’t get it twisted. Your anger should be at the legislators making it a crime and threatening losing one’s license to pursue their career for doing that. There is no duty to violate the law. And violating the law could quickly be the end of a doctor’s entire career. Acting like the real villains in this story are…

Insurers are avoiding stepping into the issue of abortion to ensure no State cancels any contract they might have with that insurance company for its employees in retribution and to ensure no pro-life group leads a charge to boycott that insurance company.

I think it’s because he’s the fastest to publish takes on (and catch) contradictions with prior statements and actions and hypocrisy. If he’s the first to identify it and publish it, other journalists are going to follow his feed to catch what they themselves miss or haven’t yet caught... even if they have to then do…

How is it the fault of the person being followed around by paparazzi? I mean it’s not like the world learned he was dating Ariana Grande because the paparazzi following him around caught sight of her and googled who she was. It’s the paparazzi following those women who scoop him up because he’s in their orbit. Most of…

By rural areas does she mean one of those Red States with only one abortion clinic in the entire State or in those States that have essentially banned it altogether? If you get pregnant in TX you will have to travel on average almost 500 miles (out of State) for an abortion. Kind of hard to take credit for low…

You are confusing what the Court has presumably received and what the public has received. WE have seen no evidence. WE have only hearsay and representations about what evidence there is. Your entire response describes evidence they MAY have (i.e. that the video and taxi driver corroborated THE VICTIM’S presumed…

Where’s the statement from the unnamed alleged victim? All you have are representations from police/prosecutors about what an unnamed alleged victim purportedly told them. In other words, where’s that statement implicating that defendant in a crime? You don’t have evidence for or against at this point. Do not…

Have the police or prosecutors produced anything so far?

Well, paying off the victim would not have been combined with a claim that there was both a video and the third party witness (the incident occurred in a NY taxi cab, which commonly feature taxi dash cams pointing at the passengers.) The police will demand to see the video and interview the third party witness as is…

Everything so far is just hearsay or not evidence at all - the police describing what someone else told them about what happened between those two people, and defense counsel describing what evidence he claims to have including unspecified alleged statements by other people. However, anyone questioning the likelihood…

You’ve got an overbroad understanding of what constitutes rich. A WNBA player is not rich. $165K/year is not enough to buy a house without a mortgage for instance. Even elite WNBA players are not receiving the endorsement deals or shoe deals elite NBA players receive. And, just like NBA players, it’s a limited period…

If you were charged with a crime in Russia where they “rarely acquit defendants,” you might (as apparently virtually everyone else who gets charged there does) admit fault and beg for leniency. “I made an honest mistake, and I hope in your ruling it does not end my life”... that’s what someone says when they have a…

Well those conservatives were absolutely not doing so in good faith, because they did not respect a woman’s right to choose.  They were applying a disingenuous effort to imply hypocrisy on the part of pro choice people.  That’s why those conservatives made memes and t-shirts saying “my body, my choice”.  Not because…

So, to be clear, they already send out permissions slips to the parents before letting the kids watch it. And 2 (and apparently only 2) parents declined to provide permission. So their kids never saw the movie. They then petitioned to have it banned altogether.  However, the 99% of parents who did sign the permission…

Well there is a different eyewitness version of events regarding what Rusesabagina was like during the time those refugees were sheltering in that hotel, and it is not the untarnished white knight depicted in the movie.  https://www.amazon.com/Inside-Hotel-Rwanda-Surprising-Matters-ebook/dp/B00APDFXF4/ref=tmm_kin_swatc…

Well no that’s not the Courts tidying up. That’s the parties deciding, in light of Dobbs and abortion being basically illegal in the State after Dobbs, to stipulate to dismiss the case. A condition of that stipulated dismissal was the former 17 year old (now an adult) agreeing not to object to the appellant’s request…

DeSantis literally conspired to lie to immigrants to trick them into flying to Martha’s Vineyard (at FL taxpayers’ expense) while the federal forms they had filed required them to be on the opposite side of the country the next day in some cases, in a scheme designed to earn political points while simultaneously…

*6 year old

You buried the lede. If Fox’s lawyers encouraged Grossberg to perjure herself in preparation for her deposition for the Dominion litigation to shelter higher ups from liability, which is still ongoing and only at the summary judgment motion stage, that is literally a crime Fox’s attorneys conspired to commit. It…

Stop reminding me how old I am.
