Rumors of Jeff Toobin's inappropriate behavior came long before he jerked off on Zoom. Many wondered how he managed to evade the first MeToo wave.

Just heard an interesting stat last week. Apparently there are 60,000 jobs available for truck drivers. That's right. Demand for truck deliveries and truck drivers is 60,000 employees short. We've waited 5 months for a bathroom fixture, and I think they're lying about the delivery time for our new dishwasher. #firstworldproblems

I honestly think your original statement was smug and childish, and you know perfectly well it was. Your attempt to explain it away is even worse.

What further level of proof would it take for you to admit voter fraud is not an issue, and the man you voted for is a total embarrassment?

Pride is the worst. People will go to disastrous lengths to pretend they're not wrong.

Wait. Are you suggesting I'M the person who has benefitted from Capitalism and now wants to hold back others from enjoying its fruit? This might be your best strawman yet. The "mental disability" slur was just the smug turd on your self-righteous sundae. As you surely know, ever "ism" is prone to excess and abuse. Such is the case with Capitalism. You can reign in its worst tendencies without becoming a socialist. True fact.

Ask your Black Friend who assured you that race is no longer a problem in the U.S.

Yeah, that level of detail is the difference between a curious anomaly and voter fraud, and why every single claim by the Trump team has been thrown out of court.

Far, far, far more than the straw men you keep propping up.

And people would like to believe that the underclass is just lazy and could have whatever they want if they were merely willing to work twice as hard. Fun fact: a capitalist society relies on a lot of people doing a lot of work that the most successful capitalists aren't willing to do. There's a strong motive to create a false division of "makers & takers" and fill it with ideological bulls#!t and systemic checks designed to keep people in their place.

I just read this again. Twice. f#&% you, Thomas Sowell.

Nope. Everybody deserves to be treated equally given the same circumstances. Everyone deserves the same opportunity to improve their circumstances. Everyone who is paying attention knows America doesn't live up to its lofty ideals in matters of race and class, and some people misuse words like social justice and envy when deep down they just want to call the underclass lazy.

The closer is example is 2004, and it's really not that close. The president of Diebold -- that year's voting machine contractor -- supposedly promised he would deliver Ohio for G. W. Bush. Election Day exit polls, which have generally been the most accurate, suggested Kerry was rapidly closing on Bush, but the final tallies did not reflect that. So a couple conspiracy theories bounced around, but they got little to no traction among Democrats and the media. Bush won. Kerry lost. We moved on. Of course the 2000 election was razor thin, with a Republican secretary of state calling the shots, and a conservative Supreme Court majority not allowing for the kind of recount Republicans now deem perfectly reasonable and necessary, in an election that was declared early for the candidate with fewer votes. Republicans bussed hired protestors to Florida to pretend outrage, but Gore and the Democrats accepted the results and moved on. You know who didn't accept the 2016 results? Donald Trump. He was so sure he was going to lose that he pre-declared the election fraudulent. Until he won. Then he realized Hillary Clinton had 3 million more popular votes. Then he declared it fraudulent again, claiming proof that illegal immigrants had voted for Hillary, pulling the number 3 million out of his a$$. All through this, I don't recall Democrats claiming Trump had secured the Presidency illegally, even if we couldn't believe it had happened and hated what it meant about the country. I just remember thinking that a lot of Americans had kept quiet about their support of Trump, and used the anonymity of the voting booth to vex the pollsters. Most Democrats spent zero time on conspiracy theories, and more time wondering if Hillary Clinton wasn't the wisest choice. There's no doubt Russia tried to influence the U.S. election for Trump. There's no damning evidence of collusion from the Trump team. There's less evidence it actually swung the election. Russia mattered mostly because the intelligence agencies that monitored Trump knew the unsavory company he kept in Russia and Eastern Europe, and how his compromised finances presented a security risk if he became President of the United States.

Yeah. That's a concern. Also, don't be so sure of "there's literally no excuse to argue" when a legacy program with 2 or 3 losses pushes aside a 1 or 2 loss team with a smaller fanbase.

I hear this every time a climate change denier gets cold, and it just keeps getting funnier!

Fordham -- like Bethune-Cookman -- is really the only win on the table. Same team could also upset anyone on the schedule. It's the new normal.

I think Al Franken regrets resigning so quickly under fire, for transgressions so clearly less egregious than those committed by colleagues still in office.

Props to Buffalo and all, but I can't believe Nebraska fans are breathing a sigh of relief about our chances of beating Buffalo.

I've heard the argument that we should better enforce the laws already in place. There's some merit to that. But I haven't heard much else from the Second Amendment side. There are some mixed signals, as the other side tends to resist those laws already in place, and prefers not to fund any study of the subject.

And yet it feels like one rather large side of the argument insists we do nothing.

It's really hard to figure out what we can or should do to stop the increasing gun violence in this country.

Rifles can be used for hunting. Pistols can be used to defend yourself from an attacker. But a lot of guns in America's private arsenal are solely designed to kill as many humans as quickly as possible. And the only way to rationalize that is to foresee an armed battle against government tyranny and/or an oncoming race war. And that's where we are.

Well the systemic part is the part we can address. It most definitely exists, backed by reams of statistics. FWIW, it's not just an American thing. It's a human thing. Like I said, it's a lot worse than some people want to believe.

This country is a lot more racist than a lot people want to believe. Less racist than others want to believe. Racism isn't an excuse for every personal shortcoming of a person of color. And some white people are opportunists, ginning up the stakes to sell race theories to other white people. It's complicated, and we don't do complicated well. But the fact remains that this country is a lot more racist than a lot of people want to believe.

So you don't understand the word "angry" either.
