“It is not my job to decide if Brett Kavanaugh is guilty. It’s impossible for me to do so with incomplete information, and with no process for testing competing facts. But it’s certainly not my job to exonerate him because it’s good for his career, or for mine, or for the future of an independent judiciary. Picking up an oar to help America get over its sins without allowing for truth, apology, or reconciliation has not generally been good for the pursuit of justice. Our attempts to get over CIA torture policies or the Iraq war or anything else don’t bring us closer to truth and reconciliation. They just make it feel better—until they do not. And we have all spent far too much of the past three years trying to tell ourselves that everything is OK when it most certainly is not normal, not OK, and not worth getting over.”

“E. Jean Carroll, the writer and advice columnist who in June came forward with allegations that President Donald Trump raped her inside the dressing rooms of Bergdorf Goodman more than twenty years ago, has filed a defamation lawsuit against the president.”
“To be clear, I have not seen any evidence that the president should be impeached. I obviously do not believe the president is a dictator, but his repeated use of unilateral action sure makes him look like one.” Guess who said that and about whom it was said.
Facebook has rebranded itself as FACEBOOK. I’m sure everyone will treat that with all due respect.

“One of the finest spectacles in astronomy is to witness the passage of one object in front of another. This can transpire as an eclipse, an occultation, or a rare event known as a planetary transit. We get a shot at seeing just such a singular event next Monday on 11 November, as a transit of Mercury across the face of Sol occurs for the last time this decade.”

“The whistle-blower is the one who is acting in the prescribed lawful way; the President and his henchmen are the ones—no surprise here—calling on the media to violate the point and purpose of the law.”

“Perhaps most importantly, we need an alternative, affirmative internet that is powerful and attractive to users around the world in its own right. Right now, the choice is between the U.S. internet—dominated by Silicon Valley companies who proclaim the need for “internet freedom” to justify their hands-off approach to hate, terrorism, bullying, and election manipulation—and China’s.”

“It is not my job to decide if Brett Kavanaugh is guilty.”
This woman is clueless. She has a 15 year old son. Presumably she has, or had at one time, a husband or baby daddy. What the Kavanaugh wrap up smear showed us, and her, is, any man can get got, any time, and that man need not have done anything wrong or even have met the accuser(s) that will attempt to ruin his life.
It would be sweet irony if some woman upset with her accused her son or husband, if still married, of rape, assault, whatever, with absolutely zero proof, and ruined her life, via ruining the son’s or husband’s life.
2 Door Ford got caught in several absolute lies, and none of her ‘witnesses,’ even her best non beach friend, corroborated her story. She just made up a lie, and later on, her lawyer even admitted it was all about her being upset with Kav because she presumed he would be anti-abortion.
