Which sort of explains the insane lawfare directed at Trump — no one ever considered him a boy scout, it’s not like Trump himself pretended to be anyone but who he was — so, to prop up the very unpopular Biden/Harris, the hunt to throw stuff at the wall to see what sticks took off in earnest with the decades old Stormy Daniels he said/she said tittle tattle.  It was not the court’s finest hour.

If I were a Democrat (my father would be so proud) I would have to ask why there are no other candidates lined up to pick up the Biden pieces as he appears to be  struggling to stay erect these days. O, silly me, I forgot about the first female president of color standing in the wings! Mr Unpopular and Mis Unpopular, side by side!  God help us all!

You don't have to be a Democrat to believe in the rule of law, just an American who believes in our country. Apparently too high a bar for many Republicans.

Discussion: Curious if South Orange Maplewood schools teach about anti-racism, systemic racism,whiteness as problematic

I've never had any training at work that says "whiteness" is a problem. I have had DEI sessions, where we talk about implicit bias, which is of course not at all the same thing. I'm wondering, where have you worked that you've had sessions talking about "whiteness" being a problem?

We’re tired of trump and all his nonsense. He could still run for president from jail, he could still vote in November, the red donation site crashed after his supporters started donating money for him. I want to see him convicted in federal court before I start celebrating. This guy is a slippery, slimy creature, who’s also very dangerous. I’m glad he’s a convicted felon, and hopefully he’ll lose some of the votes he would’ve gotten if he was acquitted. I guess the only time we’ll stop hearing his name is when he’s dead and gone.

my “malaise” got  a name today: Covid.

Get the Paxlovid ASAP.  The last time I had it (November 23) was definitely the worst thus far. Regardless of what people say, it's not something to be taken lightly.  

In spite of our countless differences, I wish you a mild case and a speedy recovery.

A different Republican Party would negotiate with Trump and ask him to withdraw as a candidate for the good of the Party and allow one of their own to step in and promise him a pardon. But this is not the Party that was willing to ask Nixon to resign. 

They are passionate about grievance and revenge.  And already across from Trump Tower one of his supporters is flying the flag upside down. What a disgrace.

An example of the “whiteness is bad” instruction that notupset knows is being taught in plenty of other primary schools might also be clarifying.
