I don't doubt you've been plunged into chaos but I don't like the association of chaos with lack of training. Let's keep our heads on and wits about us. With or without training, sexual assault is bad and against the law. We all know this. Don't give them more control than they've stolen, folks.

Yes, you should, and also you shouldn't be asking or waiting for permission. Each of us is responsible for doing what we can, with what we have, in our space. As attorneys, you have a few pathways not available to those outside the Bar. Please act. Now. And get your colleagues to do the same.

So if you know that, why are you pushing for impeachment?
comment in response to post
This isn't the solution because this isnt about him and people REALLY need to understand that. More likely than impeachment, the heritage foundation and/or Russians will off him soon, blame Dems, and install their couchloving doughboy who is the NEXT malleable idiot. trump is literally irrelevant

I have no idea how you made that leap. Me wholeheartedly disagreeing with you based on reason, logic, and independent thinking doesn't make me a victim, nor is it contributing to a problem. It just rubbed you the wrong way because you view yourself a SME and I dared poke fun at that.

Well thank goodness for helpful experts like you! I know I for one am no longer concerned and now blame this squarely on the pilot. Well, pilotS I guess, since similar situations seem to keep happening which is definitely just a coinkidink.

As a former pilot, do you honestly not recognize that error often increases with stress, lack of sleep, etc.? You don't think firing half the FAA has impacted pilots? Interesting take.

that portrait of djt is so cringe. he clearly thinks he looks stern or tough or menacing or something lol. I think it looks like he's having trouble getting a poopy out into his giant diaper and the nursing home staff keeps walking by, telling him to just keep trying, and ignoring his frustration.

And the biggEST question is whether anyone, ever, is going to grow a spine and do something about any of this. We have no leaders.
comment in response to post
Actually, that's not fair. We're about to see if the US Marshals pick Mother Liberty or their weird, rich new stepmonster.
comment in response to post
On a scale of chuckie schumer to Al Green, how likely is he to use his spine and do something about it?
comment in response to post
Now that the government's been seized by a christofascist oligarch that hacked multiple elections and installed a Russian asset as president, that collaboration and mutual respect is in question. We're about to see if the Marshals pick mom or dad... fin
comment in response to post
The problem right now is the US Marshal Service reports to TWO branches of the government - Executive and Judicial. Historically, they have collaborated one another in mutual respect. 2/3

thanks I know why he was there lol I feel like you missed the point of my comment. When toddlers tantrum and break everything around them, they get a time out. Perhaps icing the US out of everything would be the right stick because carrots aren't working.

I don't get this. He's part of an admin openly threatening to annex your country, Canada. Why was he still invited? Why was there any carpet? Y'all judge the hell out of leaderless Americans for not organizing and resisting fast enough. You have an intact government - why don't you show us how?
comment in response to post
Seeing your polite "reporting" of this constitutional crisis has been eye opening @npr.org . You still rely heavily on donations, don't you? Or did president musk incentivize you to watch your tone?
comment in response to post
Thank goodness we're eliminating waste and putting resources where they belong: towards the protection of inanimate objects created by an oligarch responsible for the dismantling of our government.
comment in response to post
That's not my argument. My argument is there is no evidence Dems as a whole are demonstrating strength or that they're done acquiescing. Schumer has plenty of company. There seems to be a shortage of spines but an endless supply of cowardice.
comment in response to post
I mean, all evidence to the contrary. If Schumer were alone in his cowardice, we wouldn't be here rn. With precious few exceptions, the democratic party has failed us, en masse.

JFC - we didn't SEND $140 billion to Ukraine in suitcases filled with unmarked bills. We sent them weapons, ammunition & other military supplies. 90% of the money went back into the US economy to make replacement ammunition & military supplies. www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/202...

my god. what thanks for people that sacrificed their lives for this country. i empathize with the loved ones they left behind right now. this is truly a travesty. these unimaginable bastards have literally no conscience, no patriotism, and no lower limit.
comment in response to post
pssssh...zero chance he doesn't cancel it lol. I'd bet a cybertruck there will be some kind of "security threat" this weekend (hell, it might even be real given his behavior today) and they'll announce the tour is indefinitely postponed. Bet

Hey Lynn? If anyone tries to invade your country, you have a cabinet full of leaders and a strong military aligned behind them. WE HAVE NO LEADERS LYNN. ITS GONNA TAKE A SEC FOR US RANDO TO FIGURE OUT HOW TO ORGANIZE 250M PEOPLE. Sorry we're not smarter! Why don't you come show us how?
comment in response to post
Do you seriously think we're worried about what Canadians trust rn, Lynn? Read the room. We get it. You're all pissed. Rightly so. But our country is a dumpster fire burning up around us. We're a little preoccupied atm - can we apologize for violating your trust once we get this sorted?
comment in response to post
You don't really still believe this is about trump, do you? He was putin and the heritage foundation's vehicle. When he stops cooperating or being useful, they'll off him, blame Dems, and install their couchfecking doughboy. And on and on this goes. It was never about trump.

She doesn't. This location is remote and on the outskirts of her district, this is the first time she's announced it, and there's no zoom option. It's performative.

You know damn well this is the first time you've announced this, hours ahead of an event in a small venue on the outskirts of your district. COWARD. FAILURE. TRAITOR.

Look around. Clearly we are. We can't organize for shit and all we do is walk,write, kinda boycott, and post about how everyone better watch out because pretty soon we're gonna get off our asses and then they're gonna be sorry! None of this is fixable. Let it burn. Start again. Women and POC lead.
