You should take the position of Kate Mulgrew (played Captain Kathryn Janeway from Star Trek Voyager and Galina “Red” Reznikov on Orange is the New Black), who is Catholic and an opponent of both abortion and capital punishment. She has always been personally opposed to abortion for herself. When she got pregnant at…
Lucrative? Like the private companies selling condoms, IUDs, etc. etc.? Get a grip. Your only reason for your position is religious. Precautions are not infallible. A condom or any other preventative measure (none of which are infallible) failing is not their fault - anymore than being the victim of rape is their…
As evidenced by the Lieutenant Governor wanting to delete the exceptions (including for the life of the wheelbarrow... I mean mother).
It’s there, but I did have to keep scrolling back to remind me of who was who: “Lindsay is being freed on $100,000 cash bail and her alleged lover, Terrance Bethel, and the alleged hitman they hired, Faron Newbold, were each granted $20,000 bail.”
“Karens no know bounds.” .... I mean I guess it works if it’s like Yoda talking or something... and it would sound the same.
I think this article has it a bit confused. He didn’t pay her bail. Apparently, she was being held without a bail amount being set (risk of flight inherent in a wealthy suspect who flies by private jet can justify being held without bond/bail), she filed a motion to ask that a bail amount be set, and the prosecutor…
PJ?
She definitely should have resigned, but this doesn’t seem like solid evidence on that front. This sort of thing (signing a pleading in litigation as an “attorney in fact” for family members) happens most often when someone is trying to act as the de facto representative for multiple family members to avoid retaining…
This is what any defense attorney would do for their client, including public defenders - ask for the lowest possible sentence available under the law. It’s like a negotiation. The Government requests a sentence often far higher than they think they will get, the Defendant requests a sentence for lower than they think…
You know what, let’s back up a second. You’ve basically torn into this article for portraying her as (your words) an “AMZING HUMAN” and “kissing her ass” and “kissing her feet”. Did you actually read the article? Here’s what it actually said (on more than one occasion), in pertinent part:
That video shows no physical violence from the suspect against the police or anyone else. It’s pitch black out there. The cop even points his light in an empty car because it’s so dark he can’t tell it’s empty without the flashlight. Four officers or more already have the suspect on the ground. The first view of the…
Oh wait, how could I forget (less than a week after his death!) Paul Reubens (Pee-Wee Herman). That was an instant crash and burn.
I would say no one had a more extreme and instantaneous (and really unjustified) political collapse than Howard Dean in 2004, and that wasn’t even about anything untoward... he just gave a speech to his supporters, in which he did an encouraging shout to his supporters that (because the audio didn’t pick up how loud…
You know who wouldn’t describe what she did as the bare minimum to qualify as a decent human being? Everyone who received bonuses for contract work that were no doubt many times larger than any they’d received before. But keep being outraged on their behalf.
“I can’t help but think that a certain segment of folks are going to be happy about all this, and that same segment of folks react very differently when their own heroes are exposed as frauds, abusers, and liars.” - case in point: Trump supporters.
Kramer was instant. I would say Lizzo’s is faster than Ellen’s because corroboration with Lizzo came so quickly. Until this article I was still on the fence, but it’s definitely starting to look like it’s true... though I still don’t know if it’s Lizzo directly for most of this or someone acting on her behalf (for…
That is a lot more impressive than nothing, and at least publicizing her doing it may encourage other touring performers to provide more generous bonuses to their support people. However, if the general reaction is mockery, the chances of that happening are nil. And, at the end of the day, the one key component in the…
That’s typical of conservatives. If they are forced by personal circumstance to recognize some right because they or their loved one suddenly needs that right, they’re for that right. But only that right. So if they’re trans but not a trans athlete, they’re for trans rights but not trans rights for stuff they don’t…
What would lose him money is paying too much for it in the first place. And he would pay too much for it because he’s stupid enough to broadcast his personal, billionaire’s intent to purchase these companies so they know to up the price.
Except she wasn’t some rando who put a (D) next to her name. She’d been in politics as an abortion rights Democrat for almost a decade. There was no reason folks would think she developed some weird victimhood mentality based on people not praising her enough (it probably started in 2016 when she didn’t win her run…
