No lawmaker in Congress should be able to buy, own, and sell individual stocks. Period. Let's make Congressional stock trading illegal.

I don't know why the "Piggy" thing is bothering me so much. It's one more unforgivable thing in a list of 20,000 unforgivable things, but I've been mad about it for like 12 straight hours.

If women are underrepresented in STEM, it's at least partly because men like this offer mentoring, then embarrass themselves by assuming their mentees must be into them, then decide the best solution is to cut ties, which sends the signal to other faculty that the mentee must not be good enough.
The emails have Summers reporting to Epstein about his attempts to date a Harvard economics student & to hit on her during a seminar she was giving.

Republican lawmakers have been the primary opposition to child marriage bans across multiple states. Between 2000 and 2018 around 300,000 minors were married in the United States, with 60,000 of those marriages involving an age difference that would otherwise be considered a sex crime. #EpsteinFiles

Elections have consequences.
This fact irritates both the left, whose mantra is that elections don't matter and thus their refusal to vote for harm reduction is not selfish and ignoble, and Republicans, who like to set the house on fire and then say they never expected all this burning to happen.

At the same time the NY Times was hyping Hillary Clinton's emails, it had a reporter with emails from Jeffrey Epstein that were highly damaging to Trump.
The more NYT apologists try to minimize this the clearer it becomes that they don't understand why much of the public doesn't trust legacy media.
