Covering up a decades-long worldwide child sex trafficking/pedophile ring in which Trump and several of your closest colleagues (yourselves included) frequented is NOT a wise decision. It is actually a crime with very serious WORLDWIDE consequences. There is NO immunity from public opinion.

Donald Trump isnโ€™t covering for Epstein because they were friends. Heโ€™d throw Epstein and any of his associates under the bus in a hot minute if he thought it would help.

Itโ€™s clear Trump is covering for his own crimes and thereโ€™s really no ambiguity about that.

Colbert Doesnโ€™t Give an FCC About Calling Out CBS

Stephen Colbert says he was told by CBS lawyers "in no uncertain terms" that he could not have Texas State Rep. James Talarico on his program.

I look forward to the day when we once again do not have to identify federal court judges by which president appointed them. Another low bar that Donald Trump has infected our country with.

When I was in law school in the 70โ€™s, my classes were filled almost 50% with women. We believed we could create a more equitable society. I was not prepared for a president and political party who hate women and willfully cover up the sexual assault of children to turn back the clock to 1918.
