TRUMP OPENLY IS OPENLY HOPING SUPREME COURT WOMEN WILL DIE: If any other president talked positively about the potential death of a Supreme Court justice, it'd trigger calls for censure. With Trump, it won't even be a story by Wednesday. Trump is the goddamn worst, here. #METOO WAS A THING TODAY: I think it's positive to raise awareness about something, even if everybody should already be aware of it. But I don't necessarily think that the problem is that men aren't "aware" of sexual harassment or sexual assault. I think the problem is that men can commit harassment or assault and still rise to become the President of the United States. Or a Supreme Court justice. Here, Anita Hill has relevant thoughts.

Read about it here. BRYAN CAVE IS NOT A WOMAN: It is a law firm contemplating a transatlantic merger. Mergers, see, are kind of like sex. So if you really have been waiting for us to write something amenable to juvenile sexual puns, this is the story for you. DID AN IMMIGRANT BITE JEFF SESSIONS WHEN HE WAS YOUNG?: It's nearly impossible to explain Jeff Sessions's hatred for anything involving immigration to this country without allowing for the possibility that something traumatizing happened to him that's causing his irrational level of xenophobia.
