@AlliFlowers in that instance, it's understandable. Perhaps more the relation itself. An 'ex' is personal and directly connected vs. someone you don't know (former president, former head of XYZ Company, etc.)
Why do we sometimes say “former” and other times say “ex?”
He’s my ex-boyfriend.
He’s my former boyfriend.
What is the difference? What should the difference be?

@TonyStark You can't remove a non-viable fetus, but it's ok to let pregnant women die just so some state legislators and a religious nut governor get to say they're against abortion in all cases. FFS.

A state-recognized Anishinaabek tribe in West Michigan says it has been “poring over historic documentation” in the last several months to make a stronger case to the federal government for recognition.

Bill O’Reilly says Trump screwed up the timing of his CNN Town Hall to coincide w/the Carroll verdict: “The moderator has to ask a few tough questions about it. Has to. Can’t ignore it. That sets a tone where Trump will be on the defensive, and no one knows how he’ll react.”

Donald Trump has decided not to testify in E. Jean Carroll’s defamation case, but jurors in the case did see the unfortunate comments from his deposition.
That's not exactly good news for the Republican defendant.
