Republicans are trying to defund public libraries in addition to book bans – Vox

Experts monitoring Republican efforts to shut down public libraries told Vox that the threat is often the last step in a series of escalations. Usually, lawmakers start with book bans. If the bans aren’t as effective as they’d hope, they escalate to threatening to defund local libraries. The threats tend to occur in states where lawmakers want to restrict health care for trans people, limit drag performances and curb how teachers discuss gender, sexuality, race, and history at school.

And In The Case Of E. Jean Carroll vs Trump …

Filosofa's Word

I’ve been silent thus far on the trial taking place in New York to decide the lawsuit brought against Donald Trump by Ms. E. Jean Carroll on the charge that he raped her some years ago.  My silence is not for lack of an opinion, but merely because I preferred to wait until the jury renders an opinion before weighing in.  Personally, I believe Ms. Carroll.  One doesn’t put something this personal in public view if it isn’t true.  And with more than 20 women who have accused him of either rape or sexual harassment, I think there can be no doubt that he has zero respect for any woman and her bodily autonomy.  Where there’s so much smoke, there’s bound to be a fire somewhere.

Trump first said he would not attend the trial, would offer no defense other than the video deposition he had already provided, but there…
