During his rape trial, Donald Trump defended "grab 'em by the pussy" proclivities before telling the lawyer questioning him “you wouldn’t be a choice of mine, either, to be honest.”
Please put this guy on the stand more often! He can't help but dig his own grave.

@Hey_Beth Absolutely agree!
@dillonthebiologist That makes much more sense!
@mentallyalex@beige.party @dillonthebiologist Maybe it’s just the instructions that are unclear then. The instructions ask that you rank them, but you can only do #1.
@dillonthebiologist @mentallyalex@beige.party You want people to vote on which is #1? This is not a poll.
This is how it should be.
🔊 Today on Reuters World News hear about the former British colonies using the coronation to underline their national identities:

You don’t enter into public service for the money. He should have resigned a long time ago.

@celset2 Like Trump paid for Weisselberg’s family’s education. Weisselberg went to jail. Just sayin’.

@tofugolem@mastodon.social Of course, we should be rolling back their tax cuts anyway.
This is why I never allowed my students to just grab their phones and take pictures of the board.

A 6-year-old boy was shot to death while he was playing in the front yard of his family’s Kansas home
Another 6-year-old was shot dead while playing video games in his house in Virginia
What’s it going to take?
So far in 2023:
There have been 14,428 gun violence deaths
192 mass shootings
603 children under 18 murdered
We didn’t flinch any of the times children were slaughtered at school, at home, or anywhere
So what’s it going to take?
@walterdunham Having a little just doesn’t cut it. Sorry.
@walterdunham I did read it. It suggests you have some free will for some things. Otherwise, your life is pre-ordained by god’s will.
@walterdunham Doesn’t really resolve the argument though.
@walterdunham My favorite argument against free will is that those who constantly remind us of free will also remind us that God has a plan. Well which is it? Cause if he has a plan, we don’t have free will.

Brydge, the once-thriving startup making excellent iPad keyboards, is ceasing operations. I spoke to nearly a dozen former Brydge employees about what happened. Many of them are still owed 6 weeks of salary.
Former Brydge employees attribute the company’s failure to mismanagement and hostile leadership by its two CEOs, high turnover rates, and a lack of financial transparency.
It's a long one, but I hope you read it and enjoy it.

There is zero chance that a justice appointed by a Democratic President would not have resigned weeks ago under remotely similar circumstances. Zero.
What is it about Republican appointees that has them thinking this is all perfectly fine and dandy rather than evidence of gross corruption of the Supreme Court?
Clarence Thomas had a child in private school. Harlan Crow paid the tuition

#Conservative #judicial activist #LeonardLeo arranged $25k payment to #GinniThomas for consulting work specifying that her name be left off billing paperwork per documents reviewed by WaPo. In January 2012, Leo instructed #GOP #pollster #KellyanneConway to bill a nonprofit group he advises and use that money to pay Virginia “Ginni” Thomas, the documents show. The same year, the nonprofit #JudicialEducationProject filed a brief to #SCOTUS in a landmark #VotingRights case. https://www.washingtonpost.com/investigations/2023/05/04/leonard-leo-clarence-ginni-thomas-conway/
