Listening to Oakland County prosecutor talk about preventing gun violence and mass shootings.

I disagree with her

No, it's not about mental health.

No, there doesn't need to be a stress assessment for your community or schools

It's the guns.

Mass shootings happen daily in the United States.

It's the guns.

Deputy fatally shoots 7 starving, abandoned dogs

Arriving at a rural property, an #Arizona #sheriff’s deputy approaches a group of starving dogs behind a fence. Some are sleeping, others bark & wag their tails. The deputy lays out food & water to corral them, body-cam video shows.
The deputy then pulls out a gun & shoots them 1 by 1, killing 7, before dragging their bloodied bodies to his truck. He later dumped the bodies near RR tracks.

Y'all do realize Joe is , right?

If Catholicism is to blame for the Supreme Court and all Catholics are the same, always agreeing with the Pope, then how can I vote for Biden.

After all, he literally is as to blame for as George HW Bush--Biden was the Senate Judiciary Chair. When Anita Hill was brushed off at the hearing it was Joe Biden who did the brushing off.

Or is it possible, just possible, it's more complicated than "all Catholics are alike"?

The measure backed by several lawmakers would also halt federal for agencies, & other orgs that have DEI policies. Republican legislators introduced a bill that would end all federal , & programs, & end funding for government agencies, contractors, schools & other organizations that have their own DEI programs.

“The thing with Sam Alito is that he doesn’t give a fuck. He is a seventy-something Fox News watcher and religious fundamentalist who happens to find himself in a position of immense and almost incomparable power over all of American society and he’s going to take that power to the limit to advance his own political preferences. He’s not even going to go through the motions of pretending that’s not the case.”

Josh Marshall understands Alito all too well. Gift link:

"I find it unimaginable that the incumbent president, or his campaign, wouldn’t find a way to impress on voters clearly and consistently what it would mean for this country to have a criminal president. I don’t pretend to know the right way to do that. But it seems to me that key swing voting blocs need to be reminded every day that they are contemplating a vote for a convicted criminal."

In an opinion essay in The WSJ, Justice responded to questions about his travel to a fishing trip w/a who frequently has cases before the hours before the ProPublica article was published.

The justice wrote he was not required to the trip or himself from his benefactor’s cases.

Convicted felon Donald Trump has succeeded in getting his three remaining criminal trials postponed indefinitely.

If he really thought he was innocent of the 54 remaining charges, don't you think he'd want the trials to happen before the election so he could clear his name?
