When all of this is over, when all the tell-all books have been printed, all the trials concluded, all the people with nothing left to fear by speaking up... we're going to find out it's all been so much worse than we ever thought it was. That the whole thing was absolutely and totally awful.

Jed Shugerman: Any DOJ settlement that gives the President a dollar -- or a direct material benefit -- is a flagrant violation of the Presidential Emoluments Clause:

Recently, I've heard lots of liberals say things like: "Most people calling for a revolution don't understand how bad things get during a revolution". While this has some truth to it, I would argue that most people don't understand how bad it will be if we don't do a revolution.

Here's a proposal. If we replaced all the crops being used for ethanol production with solar farms it would give us 3 X the total energy usage the US currently has. So doing the whole thing at once is a bit much. So how about 5% a year. Replace 5% of the crops with solar farms.

It’s infuriating when a woman comes forward about a man raping her in his hotel room after drinking and the response is “Why would she go to his room?” “Why would she drink with him?” This is Mike Pence logic. Women should be allowed to hang out with men without expecting they will be raped.
