We've all grown numb to Trump accusing an entire political party of committing felonies with negative proof, but that doesn't mean the Speaker of the House gets a free pass. Every media question he gets from now to November should demand he put up or shut up. Humoring this bullshit is dangerous.

In 2004, I obtained mifepristone for a medical abortion at age 16 without parental consent. It required I stand shaking, unrepresented before a judge and argue for my own worth, intelligence, and future. If anyone thinks this is going down without a fight, they are sadly fucking mistaken.

Really hoping if this progresses into a courtroom that Comey calls the dictionary as a witness
Dictionary screenshot:

What does 'eighty-six' mean?
It comes from 1930s soda-counter slang meaning that an item was sold out.
What to Know
Eighty-six is slang meaning "to throw out," "to get rid of," or "to refuse service to.
" It comes from 1930s
soda-counter slang meaning that an item was sold out. There is varying anecdotal evidence about why the term eighty-six was used, but the most common theory is that it is rhyming slang for nix.

No law enforcement officer operating in Connecticut—federal, state, or local—can wear a mask on duty. ICE and CBP agents have to show their faces and badges. And when an officer assaults someone recording them, commits false imprisonment, false arrest, or malicious prosecution, they lose immunity.
substack.com
Connecticut Just Told Masked ICE Agents to Show Their Faces
SB00397 bars masks on every officer in the state, forces feds to show badges, and opens state courts to sue them. A first in the country.

Every time a Democrat mentions how to talk to "ordinary people" they mean "how I was told to talk by a handful of weirdo consultants in DC with gross fixations on throwing certain groups under the bus and who would not last a day in an ordinary job interacting with ordinary people."
