One might have thought that last November, when Missourians voted to enshrine “reproductive freedom" in the state constitution, that would have been the end of the conversation.
Alas, the Missouri Supreme Court doesn’t seem to be inclined to listen. This week, the court halted abortions.

Husband retired on injury. I’m a hospice nurse working two jobs. We just lost 12% of my meager retirement in under 2 weeks. I’m 54 years old. 2 teenagers. I can’t work harder. I feel afraid

Rep. Steven Horsford to Greer: "So the trade representative hasn't spoken to the POTUS about a global reordering of trade, but yet he announced it on a tweet? WTF! Who is in charge? It looks like your boss just pulled the rug out from under you. There is no strategy ... is this market manipulation?"

But, let’s not mince words. The threat we face is vast, coordinated and dangerous.
Trump doesn’t run a normal administration — those follow the law. He runs a regime that’s wreaking havoc on our economy, democracy and national security and meant to enrich and protect himself and his friends.

Nearly 40% of the company is gone for a very simple reason: its CEO flat-out refused to stop lying to Americans.
The lesson here is by no means hard to detect.
When you daily exhibit vicious contempt for your entire potential customer base, you're going to lose your company and deserve to lose it.

“Are you worried?” That is always the first question.
“Of course I am worried,” I respond. “The president of the United States considers me an enemy and has promised retribution. I would be an idiot not to be worried. But I am not going to give in. I will continue to fight.”

This Paul Weiss capitulation is the most disgraceful action by a major law firm in my lifetime, so appalling that I couldn’t believe it at first.
Any lawyers at that firm—partners or associates—who don’t promptly resign will defile their moral and professional reputations beyond repair.
