"Only an educated and informed people will be a free people, that the ignorance of one voter in a democracy impairs the security of all." --JFK
"if we were just noticing it more, we would notice it in older groups." The original clinical picture of autism was drawn from studies of young boys.
DOJ has no credibility. The courts no longer give DOJ the presumption of regularity. SEC is drastically reducing enforcement of federal securities laws. No one should rely on agencies that have been co-opted by the administration.
If I had a recommendation for the Comey defense brief, this image is stronger than a t-shirt.
They could have elected Ben Wikler, but no. Individual Democratic candidates are pulling in more money than their GOP opponents. www.washingtonpost.com/politics/202...
He pleaded guilty to avoid the death penalty and agreed to the maximum sentence that stopped short of the death penalty.
In 1950, Sen. Margaret Chase Smith said, "I don't want to see the Republican Party ride to political victory on the four horsemen of calumny—fear, ignorance, bigotry, and smear." heathercoxrichardson.substack.com/p/june-1-202...
I'm sure she does. She was willing to ignore all the red flags about Platner because "jaNEt MiLLs iS tOo oLD" The desire to beat Susan Collins led a lot of people to disregard the obvious warning signs about Platner.
Remember: Just 1 month ago, Platner met with a half dozen Senate Democrats--including a one-on-one with Chuck Schumer--to tell them the worst of the rumors weren't true.
Roosevelt's assistants cornered and tied a black bear to a willow tree. He refused to shoot the bear because it was unsportsmanlike.
Someone ask Ogles about the Russian women who come to the US to have their babies so the children can get US passports.
If you are insisting it should be a hyphen and not an en-dash, I refer you to the Chicago Manual of Style. In the case of Rooker-Feldman, the en dash is a specialized hyphen.
I wish Virginia would get rid of this license plate. Nobody's treading on them, either.
I'm frankly baffled by people bending over backwards to defend Platner. He's unqualified. He's inexperienced. He dodged Qs from Senate Dems just 3 days ago. "So he was a bad boyfriend" 🤷♀️ Ignoring multiple red flags just to defeat Susan Collins.
I'm going to guess not true. He's just buying time to find another way to accomplish the same goal.
This is straight out of the Trump playbook. He's hijacking the animal welfare crisis on Skid Row to get votes.
Mamdani is mayor of one city. To suggest that Dems need a president who can deliver similarly big results nationally? Not so simple. The damage caused by Trump 2.0 will take years, if not decades, to repair and voters aren't patient. They want results they can see *now*. If they don't, you lose.
