Considering who her dad is and how she was probably raised, she likely does believe the garbage she says.

One of my coworkers just told me that Fox News is the only news her husband will watch. I can't say anything without getting in trouble but
AHHHHHHHHHH. Thank the Lloyd she is canceling their cable. Maybe they will see the light.

I wouldn't be able to look my children in the eye. It's like that part in TKAMB when Atticus tells Scout that he had to take the case, or he'd never be able to tell her what to do again. That's the thing though. Can she look her children in the eye because she believes what she is saying? I mean, she said the accusations against him were different because they happened a long time ago and people still voted him in. I mean, wtf. Well she apparently tells her children that God is the only true role model. Shruggie emoji

I think with SHS there is a degree of the 'ends justify the means' too. She might not agree with/believe in everything 100% of the time, but if this administration is a conduit for the RNC to do everything they want to do (and she agrees with that platform) she is going to have no problem spouting bs. I really think that she could publicly rationalize/defend anything if it helped her endgame.

I always take my ID with me when I vote, and yet I have never been asked to show it. One year they let me vote even though I wasn't on their register. We don’t need to show ID’s in NY though. If you were asked for one, that would be a problem. And allowing you to vote when not on the roll is the law too— you are supposed to be given an affidavit ballot and the BOE will verify that your name should have been there before counting it. So you aren’t/ weren’t being given any extra privileges. But I am curious if there are areas in NYS where POC are wrongly asked for Id’s, or are not offered the affidavit option if they believe their name should be on the roll. Also, NYS could still do a lot better with voting laws and allow for early voting, same day registration, make it easier to get an absentee ballot, etc. It's good to know I don't need the ID, but knowing me, I will still bring it every time. Lol.

Also I strongly agree that NY needs to get its shit together WRT voting. We need early voting and mail ballots. It's not an issue so much here because rural upstate, but it's got to be a fucking nightmare in more densely populated areas.

Even where I am, it’s a nuisance, and we’re no where near as populated as the city. My H didn’t vote in 2016 because he was too late in filing for an absentee and no early voting. I just always figured not being asked for an id was because I’m always wearing my work badge, which is State issues 🤷🏼♀️

My H and BIL both work in hospitality (BIL in restaurants specifically) and they've told me they won't be surprised to see more coming out of this industry. It's particularly bad and never really reported on. Also, I know someone who used to work for Mario, I hope she was never a target.

I know a few of you follow me on twitter. If you wouldn’t mind retweeting my tweets to dc police and mayor bowser, I would greatly appreciate it. I posted this in the dc area thread but there has been an abandoned car outside of my sons school for over a month. It has a busted out window and what looks like a bullet hole. I have called government services 3 time and tweeted at them. I have a service confirmation number but it comes up as not working. My sons school is in the poorest ward in dc and I KNOW that is why they are doing nothing. If this car was on Capitol Hill or in the northwest neighborhoods it would have been gone in one afternoon. Our school kids have to walk past this car twice a day.

Re: Mario Batalli, I am a lover of The Chew and I am not overly surprised by this revelation. Disappointed. Not very surprised. Did everyone see Tom Colicchio's letter about sexual harrassment in the restaurant industry a few months ago when the Weinstein stuff was going on? I kind of have a crush on him.

Charles Barkley is joining Doug Jones for his final rally. This will motivate zero black voters. I guess they think he will move white voters? I don’t get it. For some reason I thought Barkley was a republican. Huh.

Gillibrand is calling for congress to investigate the sexual assault allegations against Trump. It seems like an obvious statement but now that the Republicans were all about an investigation into Franken, the dems need to not let this go.

It was ridiculous.

For some reason I thought Barkley was a republican. Huh. He has claimed to be before but he is disgusted by Moore and the Bannon connection. Maybe it will help sway over some of those people who are Republicans then?
