To paraphrase FDR's 1936 Madison Square Garden speech: "Bluesky commentators are united in their hatred of me. And I welcome their hatred."

Considering how such a high percentage of the French get government checks, it's no surprise that they have trouble finding money for their schools.

The Cornell 7 hysteria has gotten kind of out of control. The university kicked the fraternity off campus, expelled two the students involved, and gave the rest varying degrees of punishment. And a local prosecutor declined to press charges because of Jane Doe's initial equivocation about consent.

There should be a “discovery rule” for such cases. But not for cases where the alleged victim simply declines to come to the police until a much later date.

The Governor could have picked a prosecutor who will at least pretend to be objective. We know what James‘s conclusion is going to be already.

Actually, two of the students were expelled from Cornell, and two received lengthy suspensions. Criminal prosecution was not pursued at the time because Jane Doe equivocated on the issue of consent.

It will be a tough case to criminally prosecute, given Jane Doe's initial equivocal statements regarding consent.

Russia clearly wants to undermine the security and prosperity of the Baltic states, so I wouldn't be surprised if it was using this tactic.
