I would respect more of you if you just admitted that you think sexual crimes committed against women and girls are not so bad. It would more honest!
look, this person is not sorry about what he did and he does not belong in office. I promise you that there are plenty of working-class progressive who are not sex pests nytimes.com/2020/08/19/us/… Image

In other news, an update on the situation at Brooklyn Friends School: The union will strike on Monday, and in an email to parents, head of school Crissy Cáceres says that BFS "has thoughtfully contracted with a number of teachers who have been hired in anticipation of the strike"
So to recap: A progressive Brooklyn school is still trying to bust its union, and has now hired scab workers

“rake steele”
lol
I think there’s pretty obviously a big difference between Kagan, who was US solicitor general and the dean of Harvard Law, and Barrett, who has...three years on the bench. She isn’t as qualified as Kagan, and is being pushed through as part of a corrupt and illegitimate process

I *also* wrote about Aaron Coleman. It was very difficult to do as a lady writer who goes off 'intuition' and her 'gut,' as Ryan Grim recently said of me, but I think I did ok thecut.com/2020/08/why-we…
one of the things that really bothered me about the 'debate' over Coleman: do you all really think that left-wing women are new to these questions about restorative justice? that we haven't asked ourselves the same questions about our own attackers over and over again?
and yet so many people (mostly men! I hate hacky performative misandry, but this was really the dynamic here!) spoke to us if we are idiots. as if they were the only people on earth who had ever contemplated these 'thorny questions'

dedicating one (1) gray hair to Rep. Mark Walker referring to Louis DeJoy as a "logistics genius" and then following that up with a complaint about "cancel culture"
Walker, who is a Southern Baptist minister, voted against the reauthorization of VAWA. Also: rollcall.com/2018/04/30/wal…
did not have "rural Appalachia" on today's bingo card, clearly a mistake on my part (Mike Duncan is from east Tennessee and serves on the board of trustees of Alice Lloyd College)

people keep talking about New York's low positivity rate for COVID-19 tests, but there are other factors to consider when we're talking about reopening public schools nymag.com/intelligencer/…
I don't see how the city is going to get enough PPE to schools, and perform all necessary infrastructure repairs, with less than a month to go
and if you still find the unions' skepticism difficult to understand: De Blasio's handling of the pandemic in the spring doesn't exactly inspire confidence
