Why?? Ask yourself why would we want to get in the way of established, long-term, monogamous relationships in which people are legally tied to eachother. The foundation of marriage is not love, it is service. Why would we end people being mutually in service to eachother? Do we no longer value this?

Weird how Trump says ‘nobody cares about Jeffrey Epstein’ while writing 400 words about him. If Epstein was “nothing,” why is he so worried? Why all the shouting? Why all the name-calling? Why drag Pam Bondi into it like she’s his last line of defense? When powerful men panic, I pay attention.👇

What infuriates me so much about this new operation is that it is literally punishing people for following the rules and showing up to their court hearings. It is so toxic to the basic concept of following the rules. It is an operation designed by people who hate the concept of the rule of law.
