This is premeditation.
Claire Ting, who graduated last year and served on student government, said she has long worried about the practice of fraternity brothers putting away the phones of inebriated women attending their parties.

The NYT reporting on the Cornell case continues to be inflected with bias and victim blaming. Someone explain to me how this reporter reached the conclusion that Jane Doe was just upset that she was being “used” when in fact she had already told the Cornell police she had been raped.
In her lawsuit, she said that she was
"incapable of consenting" to even that initial sexual encounter because of severe inebriation. She asserted that the two men had forced sex on her and called it an assault.
In the transcript of the police interview, she had a more complicated reaction. She said that she was upset and hurt that a man she liked was using her.
She added: "I was a sex doll for all intents and purposes, which is sad."
Maia Coleman contributed reporting.

Trump is just 100% incoherent these days, and desperate to tell anyone who will listen that he is super-smart and definitely doesn't have dementia.

Truth. And if your response is no way please read the thread. Non consensual inter course is rape no matter who the parties are or how they know each other. ALWAYS

Man, imagine you're minding your own business, getting kind of drunk with your friends at a picturesque brewery in Maine, when suddenly John Roberts walks by and you get to start heckling him. Must have felt incredible. That's the dream. www.nytimes.com/2026/10/01/u...
The chief justice used to preside over a Supreme Court whose members were afforded more privacy and freedom than many other public officials. Once, years ago, Mr. Lipson and the chief justice found themselves up the peninsula from Port Clyde without a car, Mr. Lipson recalled in an interview. So he stuck out his thumb by the side of the road and a pickup truck pulled over. He and the nation’s top jurist hopped in the back and hitchhiked back to town.

Now, Mr. Lipson said, he is cautious about introducing his friend to strangers. This year, on an outing to nearby Monhegan Island, people recognized the chief justice as he walked by a brewery and started to chant: You should be ashamed.

Somehow not everyone is aware of fact alluded to below. So one more time: John Roberts, Brett Kavanaugh, Amy Coney Barrett were all on GWBush 2000 'Florida Recount' team. (Which made GWB first prez in 112 yrs to 'win' after losing popular vote. Now they 'impartially' rule on our future.)
