Yes, Coercive Control Violence Prevention is now part of Hawaii state law. #reptarnas and I credit our role models in Scotland who guided our work through the years. @gordonmccreadie @MAVscotland @DirectorVRU @willlinden #DomesticAbuse #DomesticViolence #coercivecontrol
Hawaii introduces new domestic abuse legislation: inspired by steps taken in Scotland. Professor @BarbaraGerbert & Representative @reptarnas put “coercive control” violence prevention into state law. 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🇺🇸 #Skotia

Holy hell. Abdul El-Sayed just ended Trump's name calling game. He turned the insult around, Saudis, Qataris, jet and all, and closed it himself. "Call me Senator after November."

Lemme pick that up for him: Yes, yes it is. A vote for Rogers is a vote for the Trump agenda.

He’s a fucking racist and there should literally be no debate about it. This is racism. Plain and simple.
Trump pushes gutter racism: "The guy in Michigan is pretty bad too -- Mohammed, as I call him ... if you have any question about somebody from that part of the world's name, just call him 'Mohammed,' you'll be right 64% of the time."

It's fucking crazy that an investigation exposing how Jared Kushner laundered billions if dollars through Azerbaijan, including payments to a warlord, a mercenary, and a hitman, isn't getting more attention.

BRENNAN: The DOJ lawsuit demands the Alaska result not be certified if voters are confused. The confusion is defined as Sen. Sullivan not winning. BLANCHE: That's not what it says BRENNAN: I'm quoting from it. You are telling them not to certify it. What right does the federal government have telling a state not to certify?

Sì racconta che un giorno Winston Churchill passeggiasse per Londra insieme alla moglie Clementine. I passanti riconoscevano il Primo Ministro, lo salutavano e cercavano di scambiare qualche parola con lui. A un certo punto, uno spazzino si avvicinò alla coppia. Ma anziché rivolgersi a Churchill, si fermò a parlare con Clementine, con una confidenza che incuriosì il marito. «Chi era quell’uomo?», le chiese. «Un vecchio corteggiatore. Molti anni fa era innamorato di me.» Churchill sorrise, compiaciuto: «Pensa, cara. Se lo avessi sposato, oggi saresti la moglie di uno spazzino.» Clementine lo guardò e, senza perdere la calma, rispose: «Ti sbagli, Winston. Se avessi sposato lui, oggi sarebbe lui il Primo Ministro.»

Jared Kushner is everything they accused Hunter Biden of being, but 100x worse. And no one is shocked.

BASH: The worry is that we end up in a situation where President Trump tries to overturn the election and the result of that could be like what we saw after January 6-- BLANCHE: Stop it! You gotta stop it with that! That's crazy BASH: This is a president who has a history

.@JamesTalarico: Every man at some point in his life is going to lose a battle — but what makes him a man is that in the midst of that battle, he doesn’t lose himself. This is the last play of the last drive. This is the moment we leave it all on the field. We are the underdogs. It’s David versus Goliath. It’s the powers that be versus the powers that ought to be, and it’s time for us to start flipping over some tables. Because, as every Texan knows: clear eyes, full hearts, can’t lose.

Obama: "We've seen this movie before. I starred in it. I've got a long-form birth certification to prove it. This stuff didn't work on me. It's not going to work in Michigan on Abdul."

PANGERAN WILLIAM MASUK STUDIO TANPA DIDUGA, REAKSI PENONTON LANGSUNG KAYAK LIHAT PLOT TWIST FILM. 😭👑 Di acara The Graham Norton Show, kemunculan William disambut suara kaget dan tepuk tangan meriah. Hannah Waddingham bahkan terlihat memberi hormat dengan curtsy. Menariknya, William hadir bersama sejumlah figur publik untuk membicarakan Earthshot Prize, inisiatif yang mendorong inovasi lingkungan. Tapi kolom komentarnya justru terbagi dua. Ada yang kagum sama pembawaannya. Ada juga yang mempertanyakan kenapa seseorang bisa mendapat sambutan sebesar itu hanya karena terlahir di keluarga kerajaan. Gue melihat satu hal: monarki Inggris masih punya daya tarik luar biasa, sekaligus terus memancing perdebatan soal hak istimewa. KARISMANYA BOLEH DIPERDEBATKAN, TAPI REAKSI PENONTON MALAM ITU SUSAH DIABAIKAN. 💀

I can’t believe Abdul El-Sayed would accept a $400 million jet from the largest financial backer of the Muslim Brotherhood. Oh, wait. That was Donald Trump.
