  1. #SexualMisconduct #MediaCircus . . .

    I don't know if #Swalwell is guilty of the sexual misdeeds that he is accused of but, if he is, I believe that he should be punished accordingly in a properly conducted civil and/or criminal proceeding.

    What I DO NOT like is the holding of #PressConferences to indict Swalwell w/o the opportunity for him to speak in his own defense which only incites #PublicOpinion for the sole purpose of trying him in the #CourtOfPublicOpinion &, as I witnessed in this morning's press conference, the opportunity for the defense attorneys to drum up more business by soliciting other "victims" to come forward & to serve as their attorneys (for which they will not charge any up front fees but take a BIG contingency fee -- as much as 40% in CA -- in any civil judgment rendered against Swalwell.

    I also dislike the notion that only women can be the victims of sexual abuse. It's certainly not as common but men can & have been such victims not only at the hands of women but other men as well.

  4. 🎉 Congratulations, Slovenia! You've won the prestigious "First #EU Country to Run Out of Gas" #award. It's like a dystopian game show where the prize is long lines at the petrol station and a headache-inducing media circus, sponsored by the British Bureau of Content Congestion. 🚗⛽️

  5. Most popular google search in Australia currently: "Where does surname Akram come from?"

    Meanwhile Jillian Segal (the *envoy* who was outed back in July for funding far-right groups with her husband) released a media "I told you so" tirade yesterday even before the facts of the event have been established.

    Oh yeah, Susssan Ley jumped on the mic for a few photo-ops too.

    All the nasties trying to take advantage of the situation & use it for their own agendas..

  6. #HunterBiden #Court #MediaCircus

    I'll say one thing for 100% certain---even if Hunter is found guilty, or if he is found innocent or if he appeals, or if the national media breaks into me soaps to give updates, or we never hear about this again

    I WILL NOT BE VOTING FOR HUNTER BIDEN FIR PRESIDENT!!!

    No freakin way, man.

    Merchan will have the unprecedented job of figuring out how to hold a criminal proceeding involving a famously combative fmr president, who is still protected by the US #SecretService, & whose court appearances will almost certainly create a #MediaCircus.
