This would *really* be suspicious if Mark Judge—who was allegedly *in the room and also drunk* when Kavanaugh allegedly tried to rape Ford, and allegedly got on the bed too—*also* put "Devil's Triangle" (2 guys having sex with 1 girl) in *his* yearbook.... m.dailykos.com/stories/2018/9…

2/ I no longer see any universe in which Brett Kavanaugh isn't asked what "devil's triangle" means—under oath. Republicans will object, but they'll be ignored. I'd add that for many men this would be the moment you'd withdraw your nomination to spare your family further anguish.

3/ Devil's triangle could refer to something else, but if the phrase appears in Judge's yearbook entry you'd imagine calls for him to be questioned will increase. Whether the right likes it or not, these sorts of questions get asked when an attempted rape is being investigated.

(1) @washingtonpost puts the final nails in the coffin of the Democratic party.

(2) First of all, Kavanaugh isn't accused of either rape or attempted rape.

So the piece is a lie on that level.

(3) Secondly. not a single rapist on the planet will think, "Kavanaugh didn't get confirmed, so I'd better not rape this woman."

Leftists are now utterly immoral and utterly insane.

I’m fairly disappointed at this RTE report on the only Magdalene Laundry to currently be in State possession..

It’s description of the building as derelict are inaccurate- and it’s analysis of the investment potential was flawed & lacked depth 1/?

Beyond that- there’s been a concerted effort by the State and others to dilute the significance of that building and its relavance to the State and local community while attempting to sell off this site to an international low-budget hotel chain:

Let me elaborate- 2/?

Last Thursday, on the day of, but before the council vote to decide the future of the former Magdalene Laundry Site, I attended the launch of a local folklore project at the back of the Laundry-

While there, I was presented with this “historical” guide to the Monto area.... 3/?

Okay, I’ll begin laying out some information concerning Christine Blasey Ford’s allegations against Judge Kavanaugh.

Dr. Ford may well have been the victim of a severe sexual assault by someone 36 years ago. Her allegations are so vague as to such basic matters as when and where that it is impossible for Judge Kavanaugh to *prove* his innocence.

But there are compelling reasons to believe his categorical denial. Let’s look at one set of reasons.

I have known men of great character from Georgetown Prep. My son is named after one, another is my daughter’s Godfather. I would trust those men with my life. 1/

A man either has character or he doesn’t. When one has character, power and wealth cannot diminish that. When one lacks character, power and wealth amplify the damage he leaves in his wake. 2/

I was sexually assaulted in the mid-80’s at the home of one of Kavanaugh’s schoolmates. The host of that party added his name to this letter to the Judiciary Committee attesting to Kavanaugh’s character. bit.ly/2MOJ1gH 3/

I’m a mother of six, and a Mormon. I have a good understanding of arguments surrounding abortion, religious and otherwise. I've been listening to men grandstand about women's reproductive rights, and I'm convinced men actually have zero interest in stopping abortion. Here's why…

If you want to stop abortion, you need to prevent unwanted pregnancies. And men are 100% responsible for unwanted pregnancies. No for real, they are. Perhaps you are thinking: IT TAKES TWO! And yes, it does take two for _intentional_ pregnancies.

But ALL unwanted pregnancies are caused by the irresponsible ejaculations of men. Period. Don’t believe me? Let me walk you through it. Let’s start with this: women can only get pregnant about 2 days each month. And that’s for a limited number of years.
