When do we get to hear from the poor kids who molested as wrestlers by their doctor at Ohio State when Jim Jordan was their coach and didn’t report the abuse?

’s book ETTD on paper or tablet, you are missing half the fun. The audiobook has made my last three days of Miami traffic hell into a laughter filled joyride.
I have been a prosecutor and have practiced Election Law. I have also taught Election Law in Law School. Based on my experience, I can tell you that this person, who has never had a notable court case in his career, is 100% WRONG in his take on the Georgia indictment.
The latest Trump indictment in Georgia was prematurely posted online, announced at a late-night press conference & cites an election night “victory speech” as the first act of a conspiracy
A 3rd world spectacle carried out by a local prosecutor with political ambitions that far
I honestly do not comprehend how any Hispanic can support someone who speaks like this. Puerto Rico is part of America. The only reason Trump treats the island with such disdain is because of the culture of its people. This is racism, pure and simple.
We are tracking closely tropical storm Dorian as it heads, as usual, to Puerto Rico. FEMA and all others are ready, and will do a great job. When they do, let them know it, and give them a big Thank You - Not like last time. That includes from the incompetent Mayor of San Juan!
I think the reaction to the tiger at the Columbus Prom has been completely overblown. The tiger did not seem to be harmed in any way. That being said, I still can’t see how that was a worthwhile expense by the school for the prom. Use that money to get a good band instead of a DJ

As a religious practicing Catholic who reads the Bible, there is nothing in there that says our LGBT brethren are not welcome and loved by our lord. Contrarily, everything there suggests being cruel to our LGBT friends is a major sin.
@brithume
Everybody heard correct. It had to do with Russia interfering with our election. The FBI was not out to get Trump, they were following leads on Russia. We know that. It’s Trump who keeps saying the FBI was spying on him.
1/2. Today, the Florida Supreme Court upheld democracy by placing Amendment 4 on the ballot this November. This achievement is thanks to the dedication of over a million voters who signed a petition to protect women’s health and reproductive freedom. As a Democracy advocate, . .
@carloslcurbelo
He blatantly broke the law on live TV. He essentially asked China to investigate the investment firm of the son of one of his political opponents when there is NO indication of any wrongdoing.
Was just thinking. The only smart thing Trump has done in 2018 is to take a list that much smarter people prepared for him and pick the guy closest to our last REAL Republican President.

I told my wife I was going to do a DNA test like Elizabeth Warren did. She told me not bother. She says she already knows I’m 55% comemierda but she loves me anyway.
To all Cuban Americans who have publicly stated that Russia is not a threat, here is your answer. Russia is still in Cuba and coordinates with the Cuban regime. They are one in the same and both as dangerous. Russia is our enemy and we must treat them as such.

@NBCNews
exclusive: After more than a year of mystery, Russia is the main suspect in the sonic attacks that sickened 26 U.S. diplomats and intelligence officials in Cuba.
@MitchellReports
has the latest.
Narrator: None of this is true. Two different groups of Doctors filed briefs in support of Amendment 4 as they say it will protect women’s health care. No legitimate or widely respected medical authority opposes it.
The final straw that made me leave the Republican Party was their abandonment of support for democracy. Here we actually have people at CPAC cheering for the end of Democracy. As Supervisor of Elections, I promise to be a protector of Democracy.
Jack Posobiec at CPAC: “Welcome to the end of democracy. We are here to overthrow it completely. We didn’t get all the way there on Jan. 6, but we will endeavor to get rid of it.”
Trump’s Republican Party openly wants to end democracy. We must stop them.
“In the clearing stands a boxer
And a fighter by his trade
And he carries the reminders
Of ev'ry glove that laid him down
Or cut him till he cried out
In his anger and his shame
"I am leaving, I am leaving"
But the fighter still remains.” R.I.P., dad. I will miss you.
The best thing about Miguel Gabela’s win tonight was that he overcame his own City trying to unlawfully remove him from his district and prevent him from running. DEMOCRACY prevailed tonight more than anything!! We must ALWAYS protect democracy and the rights of the voters.
My kids have been told from an early age that who you like is who you like. My wife and I have many LGBTQ friends who are close to our kids. Our kids have always known that we support them no matter who they love. My children’s happiness is what matters to me more than anything,
After the tragedy at Parkland, the Legislature did the right thing in raising the age to buy an assault riffle to 21. There was NO REASON to lower the age to 18. Those who voted for this bill to lower the age have gone AGAINST the wishes of Floridians who support the higher age.
This was the first Governor I ever met when I was eight years old. He was a Florida legend whose legacy will live forever. Prayers go out to his family. Florida has lost a titan.
As someone who wants to make it EASIER to register to vote and EASIER to order a ballot, it was a no-brainer for me to launch my campaign on National Voter Registration Day.
This is not a good look. If someone believes in their policy, they owe it to the community to stand up and defend it. The failure to address this issue head-on just shows evidence that the policy was never properly thought up to begin with.
DEVELOPING: DeSantis Ed Scy Manny Diaz has just pulled out of a long planned town hall for tomorrow in Miami Gardens, the state's largest city that is majority black.
Diaz was supposed to address concerns about African American studies.

Just went with my wife and kids to see “Barbie.” Can’t think of a better message for my 12 year old daughter. So happy I was able to see her watch this. Struggling to understand who didn’t like the message of this movie and why.
Between the Trump trial today and the oral arguments at the Supreme Court, the one thing that jumps out at me completely completely is that the time has come to end the banning of cameras in the court room. The public deserves to watch trials and oral arguments. 1/2

@davidfrum
As I remember, this was also brought up by the New York Times in 2015. Republicans had the Hoise and Senate and could have had hearings. They didn’t.
We have a new member of the family. Welcome Chichi. Our neighbor is part of a rescue network and found us this new dog. She is getting along splendidly with her brother, Waffles. More important, the kids love her.
A beautiful afternoon of real family values, inclusion, friendship and love at the Miami Beach Pride Parade. To the thousands that came out today to celebrate, remember that our advocacy is meaningless if we do not vote.

Folks with NO MEDICAL EDUCATION OR TRAINING whatsoever are disagreeing with the VAST MAJORITY of OB/GYN in the country who actually filed a brief in support of the ballot measure. Another reason we must vote Democrat in November.

Haven’t ridden Metro-Rail in years. Going to court this morning for a friend. If this works well, I may be using the train to go to the office more often from now on.

For God’s sake, how many people did we know with “queso del refugio” stories? How many Cubans received “plan ocho?” The fact that Cuban Trump supporters don’t see this is crazy to me. These people will come for us eventually.
The Michael Moore movie tanked this weekend like the Dinesh D’Souza movie tanked a few months ago. Public rejecting polarizing political movies. No. 1 movie was escapist fantasy. This should tell you how Americans really feel about all the political noise going on.
@WantWhatYouHave
As bad as January 6 was, we cannot forget that what Trump did in the two months prior was way worse. The most serious crimes were committed before January 6.
Celebrated the inspiring Champions of Equality Gala with SAVE LGBTQ with many dear friends. As a long supporter LGBTQ+ rights, it is now more vital than ever to stand up for a community where everyone's true self is embraced.
There is music you listen to and THEN there is music you experience life to. Jimmy Buffett gave us the latter. His songs bring back real memories of what you were doing when they played. RIP Jimmy, pretty sure God is a major ParrotHead and is expecting a show now.
As one who has always fought to ensure free & fair elections as part of my legal career, I am saddened and shocked that ANYONE would try to defend the indefensible. I will always fight back against lies with the truth about our election system and always fight for its integrity.
I’ve reviewed the solid Georgia indictment.Georgia conducted a full recount that confirmed Biden’s win. Trump and his team conducted a fully orchestrated effort to corruptly overturn that win despite a Republican Governor and Republican election officials confirming Biden won.1/3
Former State Rep Gus Barreiro has sadly left us way too soon. Rest In Peace my brother. This world was better because you were in it and our troubled youth benefitted greatly from your work. You were an example to many who wanted to help kids and you will be remembered for it.
@WalshFreedom
5. Allow undocumented people already here to apply for asylum with the caveat that they are employed and their employer will pay a reasonable fine. We need the workers and we can shore up social security that way. People support this when you phrase it in economic terms.

Yesterday’s jury verdict against Rudy Giuliani should be a message to many who love to spread dangerous lies. Certain local politicians should pay attention to that verdict and rethink what they say on third rate TV stations.
2/2 . . this means a lot more to me. This is also about our right as voters to set policy. Now, it's our responsibility to take action and vote to protect our rights and invest in our democracy. Let's make our voices heard at the ballot box this November!
As I said on election night, the best part about Ron DeSantis being elected would be his judicial appointments. He totally hit the ball out of the park today in choosing Barbara Lagoa as our new Florida Supreme Court Justice. Congratulations to Judge Lagoa and her family.
Forgive NOW, don’t wait. Visit NOW, don’t wait. Say “I love you” NOW, don’t wait. Life is short. Moments turn on a dime. Even when things ended on good terms, you find yourself in disbelief still wanting a few more moments.
The fact that Gillum and DeSantis had never met until tonight is the epitome of what is wrong with modern politics. We need to socialize more with those who disagree with us, especially if we all want to serve our state or country.
@realDonaldTrump
WRONG!! This is solely about the wall. It doesn’t work, not even in Israel. Just like it didn’t work in China or any other cultures. Please take a lesson from your victory on criminal justice reform. Listen to experts. Many Republicans understand this. Walls won’t fix it.
@EWErickson
That’s a wonderful statement and you sound so bold saying it. If you had actually paid attention in Con-Law, you would know there would likely NEVER be a scenario where you would be forced to do that, but we appreciate your bravado.
I am heartbroken by this tragedy. The entire Adler family has done a lot for our community. Please show your love and support for them by donating to the charities mentioned in the obituary. May her memory always be a blessing.
