Historic times. Hey...G/O Media...you people should totally start a politics blog that could cover all this stuff as it happens. Man, that would be great, ya know?

She said in the interview she isn’t running.

I think she knows that saying “no” won’t convince anyone. I also think she does a good job drawing fire to herself and away from the actual candidates. Look at all the time Republicans are spending bashing someone who isn’t even running for the nomination.

Jesus, these articles and comments that seem to come out on a monthly basis purely to bash Hillary and mealy-mouth about how she MIGHT be MARGINALLY better than Trump are the worst.

It’s definitely not, nor is it intended to be, helpful. But it’s largely inconsequential beyond the acknowledgment that as we get closer to this whole thing starting in earnest, a lot of people are not sure how they feel about the options available. Similar to the Buttigieg bump (which I’ve been predicting would…

I’m dismissing all the shitty snarky replies about Clinton because fuck you, that’s why. She’s had enough shitty comments from the G/O commentariat and I’m sick of it.

Ah, my apologies, I rarely come over to the main page because its filled with petty mean girl hate people just to hate them pile ons like that. You are definitely not alone and I hope people don’t crap on you for liking two people who are charming and really trying!

P.S. I like the Kardashians and understand where your…

Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez told Politico, pointing out how Hill’s resignation could deter other young women from pursuing elected office.

Esther,

As as a woman who actually has real ethics and standards, you bloggers at Jezebel make me physically ill. The hypocrisy that you have demonstrated over the Katie Hill debacle is utterly disgusting and is the last nail in your coffin of credibility. You make other women look bad and I don’t want anything to do with…

No, we would call for a male candidate to step down after confirmed affairs with subordinates - we have done this repeatedly. She should resign for that reason, not because of the nudes. She’s a hypocrite for standing on her platforms and sleeping with someone who arguably could not provide the consent needed given…

I totally understand the prime focus of this piece: HOWEVER this site, to my disappointment, continues to negate that Katie Hill did something wrong here. It wasn’t the nudes being sent, it was she had a relationship with a subordinate that due to her power, could never be truly consensual. There are other things to…

Katie hill was accused of having two separate relationships with different staffers. One she denies and one she admits to. The one she admits to was on her campaign staff WHICH is not against the code of conduct and she was not a sitting member of Congress at the time. Is it wrong? Yes and she admits that now. And…

Honestly, this site’s defense of Katie Porter is gross. Certainly, the revenge porn and abuse by her ex are awful and a problem to be discussed. The fact that Katie Porter is a victim of this does not exonerate her at all for having an improper relationship with a subordinate. The fact that men have gotten away with…

Yes! And along those lines these two things can also be true: 1) Hill’s ex or soon to be ex is douchebag who may have broken the law 2) Hill seems to have poor judgment and not only did she engage in an relationship with someone on her campaign but she may have also engaged in a relationship with a staffer. That shows…

Katie Hill was the victim of revenge porn, but let’s be clear. She had a sexual relationship with a staffer, and then she lied about it. It’s too bad that her ex chose the revenge porn angle rather than simply reporting what she did to the newspaper or congressional authorities. But I, for one, am glad it came to…

Are we just using the revenge porn to obscure the “bonus payment” to an intimate partner?

Yeah Nancy Pelosi is the real problem here. I mean, maybe Madame Speaker is a little busy trying to impeach a president and save the republic from impending fascism?

Please help me understand this situation. She had the affair and acknowledges It. She knew It was against the rules. Its coming out because of the threat of the nudes leaking (or have leaked). It Is shitty and possibly Illegal that the photos were released maliciously from the right. But she still had the affair,…

Two things can be true 1) we can and should have laws against revenge porn and 2) people break all kinds of laws, such as laws against murder, frequently. So, the law will help, but they are no guarantee.
