We’re living through a time when far too many men — including privileged young men at a frat house in an Ivy League university — feel impunity when it comes to attacking women. I don’t think it unrelated to the impunity felt by the man now occupying the highest office in the land.

Is there a woman alive who wants to be gang raped? District Attorney Matthew Van Houten thinks that a 20 year old girl who a bunch of degenerate frat boys drugged to oblivion did. When you're drugged or under the influence of alcohol, you cannot give consent. Period! Fk the patriarchy! Fk Cornell!

Nearly 60% of the senior officers Pete Hegseth has fired are Black or female. But they make up fewer than 20% of generals and admirals. His anti-DEI purges clearly targeted Black, female, and trans officers. They were highly qualified. Hegseth is the unqualified one.

Trump calls AI concerns a hoax. But the risks are real. His opposition to regulation is pure self-interest. He has investments in AI companies that are propping up the market. If AI slows, he knows the K-shaped economy could become a cliff-shaped one. We need real leadership.
