NO. ONE LAW FOR BOTH, OR ELSE IT’S ALL DROSS: Sexual Misconduct Looks Different When a Woman is the Perpetrator.
Would we destroy the older person’s life if the sexes were reversed? Yes, we would. Did the younger partner have agency? Yes, but so would a woman. I say treat as she would treat a man in that situation. No more. No less.
EXCEPT THAT’S NOT HOW ANY OF THIS WORKS. (NOT EVEN ON APRIL 1ST): Democrats: “We have the right to vandalize Teslas, and if you try to stop us you are fascists!”
SHE’S ONE OF THOSE PEOPLE WHO SEEM TO BE BORN FOR THIS MOMENT. BUT THERE’S A PRICE: I don’t usually get personal, but I need to say this. Not long ago, I had 50,000 followers. Now, it’s over 700,000. For most people, that would feel like a windfall. It hasn’t felt that way for me. A few weeks ago, I was doxxed. Since then, it’s been the most chaotic stretch of my life. Some of the same people I thought I was standing up for chose to side with the person who exposed a gay Deaf man—and who’s harmed many other Deaf people—for ideological reasons. That betrayal shook me.

STANDING UP AGAINST HATE AND BIGOTRY AND DISCRIMINATION: Trump Administration Will Review Billions in Funding for Harvard: The move follows the cancellation of roughly $400 million in funding for Columbia and the suspension of $175 million for the University of Pennsylvania.. The Trump administration said on Monday that it was reviewing roughly $9 billion in federal grants and contracts awarded to Harvard, claiming that the university had allowed antisemitism to run unchecked on its campus. In a statement on Monday, the administration said that it was examining about $256 million in contracts, as well as an additional $8.7 billion in what it described as ‘multiyear grant commitments.'”

GREAT MOMENTS IN ASTROTURFING: Asphalt Assault: Anti-Tesla Protesters Unleash Their Scariest Weapon Yet – Nazi-Infused Line Dancing!
Tesla protesters in Seattle, Washington pulled out their scariest secret weapon against Elon Musk – line dancing. It was an assault on the eyes. Protesters hate Musk’s electric vehicles but enjoy the Electric Slide.
Have a look. (WATCH)

The irony of choosing the Electric Slide was not lost on commenters.
They are doing the Electric Slide to protest Tesla 😂
— Ray Traylor (@RayTraylor) March 30, 2025
Other Tesla protestors had their talking points preprinted in large type, just like a Biden press conference. (Why didn’t his handlers talk him into attempting the electric slide?):
And then everybody quit at noon.
NEW: Tesla protesters stop protesting at the Southlake Texas Tesla store the moment clock read 12 PM, according to @Carlos__Turcios.
“They all immediately left the minute it was 12:00 pm.”

No word yet, if like the mob in Mel Brooks’ Young Frankenstein, they all went off for brunch afterward “to have a little sponge cake und a little wine,” before contemplating their next assault on civilization.

BECAUSE BETA MALES LIKE AN EXCUSE TO FEEL POWERFUL: Why Do Democrats Love Violence? “The coordinated attacks on Teslas, Tesla drivers and Tesla dealers represent one of the most appalling political developments of recent years. These attacks are coordinated, organized and financed: yesterday was proclaimed a ‘global day of action’ by the ‘Tesla Takedown’ movement. CNN found the violence exciting. As do, apparently, 100% of Democratic politicians. I hadn’t seen any Democratic officeholders condemn the violence, so I thought I must have missed it. But no: the Google search ‘Democrats condemn Tesla attacks’ turns up zero instances of any such criticism.”

BREAKING: Marine Le Pen Found Guilty of Embezzlement, Barred From Running for President.
‘Is France still a democracy?’
…The dramatic judicial intervention into the French presidential campaign is threatening to deny to voters the choice of the candidate who is ahead in all opinion polls. On the news channels this lunchtime, the question was being posed: is France still a democracy?
According to what I have learned of the European Union’s definition by watching the political lurching and machinations on the continent these past couple of years, it most assuredly is.
Granted, I am looking at this through American eyes, but, man, do I have a cynical squint on right now.
Next up, wondering what the average French citizen in the street thinks of it.
They’re normally not too shy about letting anyone know how they feel.
But, boy — I hope they’ve got those fire trucks filled.
Related: Has French democracy been ‘executed?’ “There may be other more immediate repercussions. Le Pen’s party could join the left in bringing a motion of no confidence in Bayrou’s coalition government. They did it in December, to topple Michel Barnier, but this year she has been more conciliatory. Not now. Le Pen may be gone, but her party will probably benefit from this judgement. The anger of her 11 million voters is likely to go from simmering to seething in the days and weeks ahead. Hungary’s Prime Minister, Viktor Orbán, reacted to the verdict by tweeting ‘Je Suis Marine.’ France may not have heard the last of that battle cry.”
UPDATE:
Ukraine won’t have an election. Romania cancelled it after the “wrong” person was winning, then banned him from running. Now France has done the same.
This is what Democrats mean when they say. “We support democracy.”
