I was arrested & jailed ( first offense. for a short time ) for protesting Thomas's confirmation. In West Los Angeles ( Disobeying an officer) This was after I was interviewed by

local news. Released on own recognizance. NARAL waited for me, with a hot cup of coffee, a ride to my car & a Pro Bono atty. My phone call was to my mother, my parents saw my interview on the news, she was VERY PROUD. Woman judge EXPUNGED the charge.

WE BELIEVED ANITA, & he is the UNFIT SCUM

we knew him to be.

no shame that. The hard reality is the dilemma between conscience and paycheck--especially when others depend on the other. Up to your vote and your kids to carry the torch.

With only 10 years to go.

Remember, Thomas said, liberals have made my life miserable for 43 years (the age at which he was when confirmed), so I'm gonna stay on the court for 43 years to make liberal's lives miserable.

How about we indict his wife Ginny first.

That way we'll have his attention when we ask him to recuse from all election related cases.

What a perfect representation of the hateful, vengeful total POS Thomas truly is. He's definitely lived up to that threat many times over. I'd bet that he & Ginni had champagne to celebrate the night after he'd helped overturn Roe.

Good for you, Kristy. I’m an art dealer and I was showing inventory in a booth at the National Bar Association in Memphis around early 1990s. That bar is mostly made up of Black attorneys. I was in the hotel yard day when I saw from a distance a man walking towards me to a hall. And there was a phalanx of people behind him also walking shouting something. As they neared me, I heard the refrain’ “They lowered the bar for you. They lowered the bar for you…” It was Uncle Clarance Thomas they were shouting at. I went into the hall to listen to his speech. Much of the attendees stood up and turned their backs to him. I wish I had a video camera that day. It was hilarious.

Daniels absolutely owned Trump’s attorney and it was a beautiful thing to behold! Another thing that’s got to eat Trump’s gut is that fact that Stormy is driving the narrative, something else he’s been doing for far, far too long. Stormy Daniels, wherever you may be, I tip my hat for your agency and unapologetic “fuck you” to Donny and inept interrogator. Thank you.

Trump is so 1980s. Here we are almost at the mid-point of the 2nd decade of the 21st century, and he’s not learned a single lesson from the women’s movement - zilch, nada, zero. The man just met his match and he was taken down by a woman who’s a 1000 times smarter than he is. What a jackass.

Expand full comment

Trump is totally incapable of learning. "Dumbest goddamned student I ever had" said one of his UPenn profs.

Expand full comment

Not necessarily incapable...he is just under the delusion he already knows it all...

Expand full comment

People who think they know everything are not capable of learning and Trump has proven again and again that he's incapable of learning. Remember how he defamed E. Jean Carroll AGAIN after he was found guilty of defaming her the first time? Or how he keeps violating his most recent gag order and keeps getting fined $1000 (which is far too low in my estimation)?

That is a man incapable of learning.

And has NO self-control. He’s always gotten away with it until this trial.

Prof. William Kelley

He’s not the type to be schooled by anyone; besides, he hasn’t updated because he hasn’t had to until very recently. Hated him in the 80s when he meant nothing to me, nor did he represent a threat to my family or me. Now, i just want him to disappear.

Expand full comment

He doesn't pay attention to anything he considers unrelated to himself and what he wants. He's left himself wide open to a smart, sassy woman like Daniels because he has undoubtedly instructed his lawyers to go at her with guns blazing. He's a fool.

Expand full comment

He was paying attention to her, I’m sure. She got to him where it hurts, his effing ego. All that is required now is to keep Cohen in a happy and relaxed mode. I know it’s hard, but he’s the only one who can cap a very successful week of witness testimony against the fat guy in silk underwear 🩲 who thinks he’s Hugh Hefner.

One of the best things about this day's testimony was watching CNN when Jake Tapper acted like he was reluctant to say "orange turd" out loud. He said something like, "I hate to say this on television, but it was part of the testimony ..." and then HE KEPT SAYING IT, every chance he got. They were showing one of the sketch artist drawings and Jake was naming who was being portrayed, "There's Trump's attorney, there's Miss Daniels, there's the orange turd ..."

You know he's going to stiff them (which I think is not so much an adjective with him anymore so much as a verb). We know he's pissed the judge doesn't call him "President."

I’m just hoping that after President Biden wins in Roevember, and I’m cautiously optimistic at this point that he will, all these trials that have been put on hold by the fan girl judge and others, will ramp up to full fucking force and we can all watch little Donny fuckface, aka, the orange turd 😂😂 sit for years, either in court or in jail and continue to rot no matter where he ends up.

Sitting silently in court while Stormy talks about their nightmare of a sexual encounter and calls him the Orange Turd is probably worse for him than sitting in a prison cell (where he could have his own unwanted sexual encounter).

I think Biden deserves some credit for allowing her to testify at length. I was way less sophisticated back then, but I didn't think he was attacking her—it was Arlen Specter. I think I watched all of her testimony on TV. . And I believed her completely.

I agree. Biden was doing his job. It's unfortunate that the GOP rammed the Thomas nomination through, because obviously he is and was a terrible person and in no way deserving a seat on the bench.

Totally agree. Back then, Supreme Court nominees were confirmed almost automatically. The Democrats may have feared that they would look bad for voting down a black justice.

He was replacing a black judge so they got a self hating black man to replace him.

I think you are probably right about that. I'm sure they thought they might get. mercilessly dragged in the press if they voted against him.

It is a great shame upon them. Also, they could have found a truly worthy black man to fill the post but they chose a small and low person with no morals. They did that to America.

Expand full comment

Yes, they did, and more. The biggest damage was to our court system.

We have had some really awful elected officials in WI, winning in gerrymandered districts with Koch brother money. State officials, no matter how terrible, move up into some higher level of the Government, like Mr. FoxConn himself, Scott Walker. We have Tom Tiffany now in the House, waiting his chance to get into the Senate. This is not a good or competent person. He gets an F rating on the environment every year and displays it proudly in his office , voted No on 142 bills in 2023, that would benefit the environment. He was absent for vote 143. Our wells in Northern WI , the headwaters, contain forever chemicals as far north as Ashland on the banks of Lake Superior. City water in Rhinelander is contaminated with PFAs. I watched Dark Water on Netflix and now I know why. If you haven't seen it, you must do so. It is infuriating and will break your heart. And it is still happening. DuPont has been knowingly poisoning the entire country since the 1950's. 99% of us have their poison in our bodies from the manufacture of Teflon. Dark Water blew my mind. It's like the story of Erin Brockovich on steroids. Same family of chemicals too.
