This is not a minor issue: it’s a serious threat to democracy. We’re rapidly transitioning into a world where, as long as you support the president, you can be above the law; if you’re in the opposition, you have a target on your back. Opposition can’t survive under these conditions.

I think at this point it’s fair to say that we’re no longer under the rule of law.

I guess we shouldn't be surprised that someone who models his character values after the US military doesn't see any character issues with creditable claims of SA.

Carter Hart does not deserve to spend another minute in the National Hockey League. No team HAD to give him a lifeline, and Vegas did. Bad move

The only players who en masse spoke out about London 2018 were the HDA members and once again, I hate that the POCs in the NHL are on the island speaking out for ANY change.

Crazy that the Vegas Golden Knights are the kind of organization that Safe Nest in Vegas partners with, all things considered.

The rape apologists and women haters are having a moment, and it's the Vegas Golden Knights that are giving it to them. #VegasBorn

No matter what else, this is truth.

(Not my words, but so true and h/t to the person who said it.)

If you have to put out a PR statement like the pictured to "defend" your signing ... you KNOW you're doing something wrong. And for what?

Bill Foley or Kelly McCrimmon out here trying to "save" someone who's career shouldn't be "saved". #VegasBorn

A reminder that the @NHL
itself stated it expects "the highest level of moral integrity" from those connected with the game and that the players' conduct "certainly did not meet" its standards. #VegasBorn

Per their statement, the VGK show clearly the org's core values claims are a load of bullshit.

Bill Foley clearly shows either he completely disregards the West Point code of conduct, or he represents and West Point agrees in the representation, that these values dishonor women.

And I'm not saying they're bots here. Just saying, there's a clear type in 90% of those defenders/promoters, so if you're not in that category but find yourself doing the same today or a month from now -- take a look around and think a minute.

Strange how all the ppl on the other site defending or promoting Carter Hart are MAGA and have things like "remigration" in their profile pics 🤔

Marner did it again during the EN moments. Nicely angled so there were zero options, then he and Karlsson won the board battle to send it over.

Akira Schmid has stopped all 16 shots he's faced since entering this game cold, and a couple of them have been dandies.

Great job from Marner right before that goal. Subtle positioning to deny outlet, then hit the dman hard for the eventual turnover.

NHL: The events..were deeply troubling and unacceptable," adding that while the conduct was found not to be criminal, it "certainly did not meet" its standards.

The league said it expects "the highest level of moral integrity" from those connected with the game.
