I do not want to hear a damn word about men being allies. As long as they stood there and did nothing, said nothing, they enable him and every woman knows they aren’t trustworthy either. Spare me the endless analyses about how hard men have it. They behave like this and get to be president.
“Quiet, Piggy”

"When an off-camera female reporter... began to ask if there was anything 'incriminating' in the Epstein emails, Trump pointed a finger in her face. 'Quiet. Quiet, Piggy,' he said menacingly."

Gun violence has such a massive blast radius the stats never capture. Those who witness it in person, the medical professionals that handle the wounds, the injured who carry the damage with them forever, the families shattered, the communities permanently scarred.
