Mom of two, Former tax lawyer. I hope men, especially justices, when in need of emergency care, have a moment of panic thinking “Wait they’re not going to let me get close to death before they treat, are they?” It will only be a moment, “oh that’s women”

I think you should disrupt but let him start speech with no applause, nothing then 5-10 minutes in start periodic disruptions. Like walkouts or signs a president is not a king & no third terms. Let. Him start and then keep disrupting. keep disruptions so everyone doesn’t get thrown out.

Senator Kim did show up at USAID & at least 1 virtual town hall. I know he spoke out elsewhere.

This is just disgusting. I won’t go to those states. I’ve only ever been to two that I recall. So not a big loss on their part. Just revolting behavior.

Implying that DEI requires compromising high standards is very clearly accepting the premise that straight, cis, able-bodied white men are the best at everything.
Stop doing it.

Do you think any of these horrible people think their job as legislators is to solve their constituents’ problems? Because they don’t appear to be doing that.

Oh I know you’re right. It’s just all so hard to see these a—holes talking about how these are all anonymous accusations. Then, when women have made the accusations in testimony & blown up their own lives, the Senators ignore them. Or accuse them of lying.

Right now, Oreos sound like good self care. Take care of yourself. Writing about all of this has to be . . . a lot. I find reading about it to be hard.

And that's the smallest cost. Recall that Trump was impeached the first time for withholding Congressionally-approved military aid to Ukraine. That caused people to die. Money withheld for PEPFAR will cause people to die. Those people don't come back to life when the the funding restarts.

I mean this more as a cautionary point for those who don’t think it’s worth spending money on due diligence.

I have to say that they should have spent a lot more time, money & (actual) intelligence in the due diligence including on finding better lawyers at that phase of transaction.

You want remarkable? Last night, I saw reporting about his comments on Canada & Greenland. But nothing about ethnic cleansing in Palestine until this morning. Really?

This is paradoxically a little easier to do in an area where there’s an overwhelming consensus, because most legal academics don’t find it either interesting or professionally beneficial to churn out articles saying “the view everyone’s considered obviously right for 130 years is still correct”
