This statement coming from a”grab them by the pussy” adjudicated rapist? It is time to have a wider public discussion about misogyny and performative power’s place in conservative politics as exercised by MAGA. www.phoenixnewtimes.com/news/congres...

Reminds me of when I was a kid. In pre-op with an older guy, doctor comes in with a clipboard. “Let’s see. Tonsillectomy, hernia. Guess I better not get you two mixed up. Who has the hernia?” Funny guy.

Arrest them under that state law and Trump will not be able to pardon their state conviction. Might also be time to start a discussion with police unions about what their future looks like if ICE is determined to be a terrorist organization in a future federal administration and locals have aided.

Someone needs to tell Jill that policy arguments are moot when the party in power does not follow the Constitution or the rule of law. If she wants her policies to have a chance, first, all Republicans must be voted out.

If a biologist created a deadly viral disease that escaped his control and caused infections outside his laboratory, he would be held responsible for civil damages. And if he had intentionally let the virus loose, he would face criminal charges. How is AI different?

“Humans build it, humans deploy it, but no one bears responsibility for the things that happen when they do.” Which is PRECISELY why they want to bum rush it into service everywhere, which is like “corporate personhood” to the nth degree. No human accountability whatsoever.

We have reached the point where the MAGA red caps are sounding the warning of rising fascism in Germany? And EVERY single Republican is responsible for this, even if only by their silence in the face of Trump’s actions.

Whichever staff person denied them access should be cited for contempt and jailed. Then the enablers who carry out Trump’s offenses against the rule of law just might stop breaking the law at his behest.

The EV technology of today wasn’t available in the 1970’s, so the “solution” to two oil crises in the ‘70’s benefited the oil industry. The solution to this crisis is accelerated conversion to EV’s and removing the oil industry from the center of our economy.

I’ll never forget the day my wife got us into a rehearsal at the Met of Verdi’s “Luisa Miller.” It was okay, but suddenly the tenor’s first aria rang out and I honest to god looked to see if someone had turned up all the lights in the house. Pavarotti’s voice live could do that!

It is simple. If you cannot protect and defend the Constitution and you have no respect for the rule of law, you have no place in our government, even if all you do is remain silent to the abuses of your party’s leader. Vote out every single Republican in every office, down to animal control officer

They should have studied history. J. Robert Oppenheimer famously quoted the Hindu scripture, the Bhagavad Gita, saying "Now I am become Death, the destroyer of worlds" after witnessing the first successful detonation of a nuclear bomb during the Trinity test on July 16, 1945.

Wait till they figure out there are “just a few technical challenges.” Like microphone selection and placement just for starters. And who among those who have the skills is ready to burn their future. After all, people in media production all know the phrase, “You’ll never work in this town again!”
