Nothing like asking career AUSAs who have been under assault for the last year, watched their colleagues get fired for no reason, and their offices taken over by incompetent boobs to volunteer their time to perpetuate a cover up of their boss's involvement w/a sex predator 🙃

Jack Smith is calling for the House Judiciary Committee to release the recording of his full closed-door deposition before the panel.
"Doing so will ensure that the American people can hear the facts directly from Mr. Smith, rather than through second-hand accounts."

The DOJ identified at least 10 co-conspirators who worked with Epstein and Maxwell. It’s obvious to anyone with two eyes that Epstein and Maxwell were engaged in organized crime, yet NO ONE ELSE involved in Epstein’s sex trafficking ring has faced criminal charges. Why?

When Bari Weiss wrote about the national crisis of “woke private schools,” all of her sources were anonymous students, parents, and teachers who agreed with her premise—and she ran the story without getting a school on the record, for “context.”

CBS is cooked. It's been a few decades coming but we are witnessing the death of American journalism. Nothing good follows in the aftermath of that.

60 Minutes pulling the CECOT segment didn’t bury the story — it amplified it, drawing far more attention than airing it ever would have.

“The Supreme Court decided not to have a Christmas party for 12 straight years because the justices couldn’t agree on whether to invite the Court’s Black employees” is about as tidy an encapsulation of the Supreme Court’s whole deal as I can think of
The Alarmingly Racist History of the Supreme Court’s Canceled 1947 Christmas Party
The Court held its first-ever office Christmas party in 1946. The following year, the clerks suggested inviting Black employees. It did not go over well.

The person charged with enforcing the laws is an open lawbreaker, assisted by a team of open lawbreakers, backed by a Congressional majority indifferent to lawbreaking, supported by a Supreme Court that privileges them to break the law.
It has no legitimacy whatsoever.

The person charged with enforcing the laws is himself a law breaker. In such a state, do laws even have any legitimacy?

Listen, I’ve got a weight problem. It’s no secret that I’m fat. That’s on me.
I cannot stand is people that equate “fat” with illiterate, incompetent, stupid or lazy. If you’re out there mocking people as fat, even horrible people, you are showing us how you secretly think about all of us.

it is an underrated miracle of the 21st century that we really did massively, massively reduce bullying in schools
My experience as well. So far we're 2-for-2 on kids having a largely bullying/abuse-free middle school experience. Not without bumpy spots of course, but light years away from what I endured.
My hot take: the anti-bullying stuff has really worked, which is why conservatives are pushing back at it.

for what it’s worth I got roped into helping out with my sixth grader’s extracurricular thing so I’ve had more recent contact with middle schoolers who aren’t mine than I usually do, and biased sample/biased reviewer/etc but my verdict is that the kids are all right
