I get they're inextricably intertwined but I kind of feel like leaning so much into how he was the longtime best buddy of the world's most notorious sex criminal has given it something of the feel of a political gotcha rather than the important part, which is that the president raped people.

I know there's a lot going on but I feel it should probably be more of an above-the-fold story that members of Congress released a thoroughly documented report directly accusing the president of the United States of being a serial rapist.

The vile attacks on Amy Acton need to be seen in the context of a party that *needs* people to believe women fabricating sexual assaults is common as rainwater. Because it’s pretty much the only way to evade the conclusion that the president is a rapist.

GMail’s Spam filters are getting ridiculous. I’ve specifically added someone as a contact, but GMail refuses to believe it isn’t a phishing attempt

Eat shit to fascists throughout the world.

My low key conspiracy theory is that Carrick didn’t bench Bruno, the INEOS crew insisted on it

I think ICE has blown past any sense that courts can bind their behavior in any way anymore and that’s pretty scary

Duder seems to be having like a manic episode that manifests as megalomania or something

A good solid reminder that what executives object to isn't spending money, it's spending money on people. It's a whole ass different budget line to burn $15 million a day on tech for animation than it is to pay (way less than that) for animators.

Work accomplished, Slow Horses finale time

This article came out six weeks ago, there's enough public evidence that @foreignpolicy.com let me say "bribed" without caveat, and still, the new Kushner revelations show he was BRIBED. Directly bribed. Right into secret foreign accounts bribed. Massively corrupt, ultimately world-changing bribes.

Democratic Party needs a plank that calls for a ban on all sources of outside income for federal elected officials and appointed executive branch officials. Constitutional amendment if need be.
