- Today, I’m told, we should pretend John McCain didn’t pick Sarah Palin as his running mate in 2008.
- Jimmy Carter's second act includes sparing 90 million people from a debilitating disease. @lmorello_dc on his unglamorous work of taking on the Guinea worm. grid.news/story/science/…
- This is significant. According to @JaneMayerNYer (who broke the Ramirez story), Ramirez wasn't the original source. Yale graduates knew about the story since it happened. They talked about in writing in July. This wasn't made up in the "11th hour."
- When Nancy Pelosi isn't even on your side in a case where the perp is 88 yrs old and in a safe seat, why on earth would you report sexual harassment?
- Collins had no idea that long-time friends of hers were victims of sexual attacks, but she seems to think that people who attended a party should have known about Ford's.
- I spent a lot of time reporting on Tara Reade's allegations this year and last year. It is the most difficult story I've grappled with since I started covering questions of gender and power during the #MeToo era.
- Took 17 minutes to be called the c-word for pointing out that John McCain’s legacy includes empowering Sarah Palin.
- I'm not in the mood for nonsense. If @MichaelAvenatti has allegations as serious as those he's alluding to in his email, he should state them.
- Free idea: we set government funding to expire at noon next time.
- NEW: President Trump responds to sexual assault allegations by E. Jean Carroll, saying `I've never met this person in my life'
- I’m increasingly interested in setting up a site that posts the kind of hate reporters receive. (Maybe with names redacted, maybe not.) The “just ignore it” tactic is a fair individual tactic, but the scale of the problem and the depth of the hate should be exposed.This day in thoughtful reader feedback
- Ten days isn't a lifetime. A lifetime appointment is a lifetime.
- I'm trying to think how I would prove I was here legally if stopped, say, walking my dog. Even if I had a driver's license on me, would that do it? I realize a Georgia sheriff isn't likely to stop a 40-something white woman walking her doodle, anyway. Just a thought exercise.what could possibly go wrong?
