Trump, when asked if he has committed extreme misogynist abuse, responds with less extreme, but still quite impressively extreme, misogynist abuse.
When asked if there was anything "incriminating" in Epstein's emails, Trump pointed a finger in a female reporter's face and snapped. 'Quiet. Quiet, Piggy.'

I don't have much to say about Olivia Nuzzi, but it's emblematic of our culture at large that what should have been a career-ending scandal resulted in a sweetheart high profile book deal and a fawning tongue bath profile in the paper of record.

I have often gotten essays and research projects from male students, often male athletes, arguing for better pay for female athletes, most recently for WNBA players specifically. it always gives me a glimmer of hope.
For @msmagazine.com, I wrote about the WNBA and the issue of pay equity. By the time the WNBA was only two seasons in (1999-2000) the average NBA salary was 58 times higher than the average WNBA salary. Twenty-six years later, the gap has jumped to 116 times higher.

The GOP screaming about how being undocumented is a crime(I know it’s not) and therefore they deserve whatever happens to them with ICE but they *literally* elected a felon to be president. That’s got to be the most hypocritical thing that’s ever happened in history

The Harvard Crimson has ID'ed and published the name of a well-known economist who was the subject of emails between Larry Summers and Epstein.
Born in China, she did her B.A. – Ph.D. at Harvard.
The code name that Summers and Epstein used in their emails about her was "peril." What a vile pig.
