"A full third of NFL teams have men on their cheerleading squads, but what I find hilarious is that the past eight winners of the Super Bowl have male cheerleaders. In fact, the past eight Super Bowls have only featured teams with male cheerleaders."

It’s amazing that Washington DC can achieve its lowest crime rate in 30 years when 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue is experiencing its highest crime rate in history.

Every time we’re concerned with some new disturbing development, we’re told it’s unlikely. And then it happens. And then it’s the next thing that’s unlikely.
I urge everyone who is understandably disturbed by the petition news to consider how very unlikely it is for the Court to even take this up, much less reverse Obergefell. Unlike abortion, marriage opponents don’t have the same social movement that anti-abortion forces did, which was core to the GOP.
Obergefell v. Hodges made me believe in the whole "arc of history bends towards justice." In the 90s, I didn't think gay marriage would be legalized in my lifetime because homophobia was so deeply ingrained. We would have never gotten here without the decision and now it may be overturned.
