To be fair he said despite slavery America was great back then.

Watched the first half of that interview and it's embarrasssing. "Looking forward" to watching the other half tonight.

This trashfire candidate's really going to be elected, isn't he? While Conyers and likely Franken step down? Sigh.


Just watched the other half...it's all so bad, but nothing beats early on when she calls Roy's opponent "Abortion Jones."

I wouldn't say one case is really progress. A string of cases, and it might be progress. And it would still in no way undo the injustice done here.

And he wouldn't have had to reach for his waistband to pull up his shorts if the officer told him "Stop. Don't move." and then walked over, and then handcuffed him. As the investigating Detective said. There was nothing stopping them from doing that.

Apparently she's just admitted to forging the date and location, not the rest of it.

Not a good look regardless. Seems pretty idiotic if she actually really just forged those parts.

I don't think it was ever clarified when she wrote them. If it was right after the signature, it can make sense, she was just cataloging when the yearbook was signed, and where.

It's still dumb that this wasn't mentioned initially, but it's not actually a big deal, the message and signature are still real. Unfortunately, this is all it took for the FAKE NEWS brigade to come out in full force, so it doesn't matter.

Also I watched the Daniel Shaver shooting footage and its one of the most infuriating things Ive ever seen. The cop was practically itching to murder him.

Literally telling a drunk guy crawl to me with your knees crossed, and if you stumble you better hit face first because if you move your hands Im gonna kill you.

Yep.

Doesn't matter they retracted it. The FORGERY is being yelled all over the alt right, and then being used to discredit all the other women and all the other corroborating evidence and witnesses for these women because ???

And strangely none of the far right sites are reporting the fact that the note and signature itself are reported to match Moore by an independent analysis Allred ordered. Weird, I thought they'd be all over that.

It was dumb to not note the date and location were added by her at the initial press conference though.

Imagine being such a dumpster fire of a candidate that these things don't even register on the national scandal radar because they're too busy focusing on ten other things.

Exactly. The thing to understand is that there are no upsides to brexit, unless you work in the tourism industry. We will have to adhere to regulations and give up "muh sovereignty" in order to get a trade deal. We cannot have it both ways.

So the options are hard brexit which will destroy the British economy and potentially spark a civil war (not exaggerating) in Northern Ireland, soft brexit which will keep the economy intact and be mostly pointless, or no brexit which will greatly anger half the electorate without at least another referendum to back it up.

At least this way we reduce the damage brexit will do.
