On the morning of the shooting, Littler said Lucy had asked her father, “How would you feel if I was the girl in that situation and I’d been sexually assaulted?” while they were discussing Trump.
Kris responded that he had two other daughters living in their home, so it would not upset him very much.
JFC This guy sounds like a real piece of work. The prosecutor apparently bought in to his story that he "invited her" to the bedroom to see his gun and it went off accidentally. Even though she hated the fact that he owns a firearm and they were about to leave for the airport.
Actually, the article states that they delayed handing over any data to give the ACLU time to challenge the subpoena in court, so DHS got the info they were after some other way.
There have always been trends, rumors, and dangerous dares, social media didn’t invent that stuff.
Perhaps not, but they certainly enable such things to spread much faster and further than they would otherwise. And since there's little or no oversight to what people post the harm is never checked. I've repeatedly reported posts on various social media platforms that are advocating fraudulent and/or directly harmful information. None of them have ever been removed as a result of those reports. As long as the content keeps audiences engaged, they refuse to act.
I rewatched it a couple years ago for the first time in decades. It holds up surprisingly well for an 80s comedy. The scene where they explain how the futures market works is basically right out of an economics text book. Like, literally. I believe they got an economics professor who wrote one of the most influential text books to consult on those parts of the film.
If you want a fun chaser, watch Coming To America right after. There's a bit of an easter egg cameo.
There was a lot of speculation that they were daring congress to open a case, which would force the Justice Dept to comply with discovery rules and make all the documents available to their legal team.
I mean... in a sense I kind of agree. Voter apathy largely allows people like Trump to win elections. On the other hand, 64% turnout is among record highs, even for a US presidential election, which traditionally draw the highest voter turnout. There are always people that don't vote. I don't assume that they all don't care or are okay with the results. There are plenty of people who aren't able to vote for a variety of reasons. Some of them because of economic or health limitations. Some of them due to outright voter suppression activity.
Not even 2/3rds of the voting population voted. The turnout was 64% of eligible voters. Trump won the popular vote with 49.8% of the votes. That's about 32% of eligible voters that voted for this.
It's a terrible catch-22 for trans people. Either you use the restroom that conforms to your apparent gender and risk being charged with a crime, or you use the restroom that conforms to your birth gender and risk being harassed or assaulted by others. Honestly, these laws are just an attempt to punish trans people for existing in a public space.
Oh noes! Somebody danced provocatively on TV!
Anyway... who are the men that were redacted out of the released Epstein files?
