About 30 months later than it should have happened, but late is better than never!

Yeah, it’s totally normal for prosecutors to wait over two years to bring forgery charges and just let the suspects go about freely doing as they please that whole time, it’s not like anyone in recent history has been forcibly detained by a police officer and been suffocated to death by that officer’s knee being placed on their neck for an extended period of time after they tried to submit some dodgy paperwork or anything /s

“Paw Paw is named for the pawpaw trees which once grew along the Paw Paw River,” and those trees probably got their name from British people trying to say “papaya”

Probably not a great age to be starting a fourteen year prison sentence at, but they should have thought about that before trying to overthrow our democracy I guess

Because prosecutors and judges are too scared of him to throw the gag order at him he’s earned a dozen times over with all the threats he’s made and violence that’s happened around him and more reliable sources are refusing to make any comments or give an off the record confirmation or denial, so he’s the only source of information we have about this. It’s an extremely frustrating situation.

No, newsworthy because Trump is using his public profile to mess with this investigation again. We have no way of knowing whether or not he actually received a target letter because he lies about things constantly and could be lying about this as well.

He absolutely should be, but that was painfully obvious a long time ago at this point and he hasn’t been indicted yet. Hopefully the DOJ actually does it’s job and stops giving criminal Republicans passes, but I won’t believe it until they actually do it.

I think there’s also an element of not doing gag orders on him unless vital as he’d likely break them anyway

Imagine if we handled bank robberies this way, “Oh, they’re just gonna keep trying to take the money, you should just give it to them”

use any enforcement action as a call to action to his supporters

He’s already been issuing that call since before he was indicted. The obvious answer is to throw him in a jail cell and limit his communications to just his attorneys. We do this to suspected criminals every day and it’s absolutely warranted here.

Also, he should draw a charge for intimidating witnesses for all of this.

He does also do a very good job in giving prosecutors evidence against him when they just let him talk.

I guess we just have to hope that evidence isn’t the dead body of some poor person Trump convinces one of his idiot followers to kill, huh?

A sexy outfit can get you arrested in Phoenix — especially if you’re Black or trans (www.phoenixnewtimes.com)

TIL about the 1988 Camelford water pollution incident, the worst mass poisoning in British history (en.wikipedia.org)

tl;dr, water treatment authorities accidentally dumped a bunch of aluminum in the water, but told all their customers it was safe to drink before they knew what it was, but scientists and doctors are apparently still arguing over what effects aluminum exposure can have (see: “Aluminum and Alzheimer’s disease: after a century...

I actually just listened to that episode yesterday, that whole show is pretty great (also, the one author’s other podcast - 5-4 (“a podcast about how much the supreme court sucks”) - is consistently amazing), but for anybody out there who doesn’t do podcasts and wants a summary,

tl;dl All the good ideas in it were stolen from other places and the author is a secret fundamentalist who thinks women need to get back in the kitchen and gay people need to get back in the closet. For example, this Q & A article from 2013

Q: “My son has recently told us that he is gay. I’m having a very hard time dealing with it. How can I help him with this and still show love?”

Gary Chapman: Disappointment is a common emotion when a parent hears one of their children indicate that he/she is gay. Men and women are made for each other—it is God’s design. Anything other than that is outside of that primary design of God. Now I’m not going to try explain all the ins and outs of homosexuality, but what I will say is this—we love our children no matter what. Express your disappointment and/or your lack of understanding, but make it clear that you love them and that you will continue to love them no matter what. I would also encourage you to ask your child to do some serious reading and/or talk to a counselor to try to understand him/herself better while continuing to affirm your love.

Also, from this review of the podcast

For the episode on the book, Shamshiri went back to the original ’90s text, which contains, among other debunked gender stereotypes, an assertion in the “Physical Touch” chapter that men want sex all the time, whereas women need emotional connection for intimacy to be satisfying. (Nowhere in Chapman’s books is any attention paid to the romantic dynamics of queer couples—at one point, Shamshiri jokes that such relationships are “like the female orgasm, not discussed or implied.”) In one chapter, a woman tells Chapman that her husband verbally berates her and refuses counseling. Chapman, in the 1992 version, suggests that the husband’s love language is physical touch and counsels the wife to start initiating sex frequently and more aggressively. When she balks because sex with him makes her feel used and unloved, he advises her to draw upon Jesus’s Sermon on the Mount in order to gather strength. In the anecdote that appears in later editions, Shamshiri mentions, Chapman simply suggests that the wife be more physically affectionate in general. Although the sexual mandate is less explicit there, the idea that sex is a sacrifice that women must endure in heterosexual marriage persists.
