😡 BREAKING: New court filings reveal Republican Max Miller poured hot water on his wife, put a gun to her head, and broke his two year old daughter's collarbone. Why is Mike Johnson defending him?

Second class citizens
I will never understand a woman voting for a Republican. Don’t you understand they would literally sign your death warrant to force you to deliver a pregnancy? They stand with rapists. They stand with domestic abusers. They stand with pedophiles.  Women are second class citizens to Republicans.

The GOP base: pedos and wife beaters
Trump minimizes domestic abuse during a talk at the Museum of the Bible: "Things that take place in the home, they call crime ... If a man has a little fight with the wife, they say this was a crime, see?"

The deadskins
This is the week that was in the National Fucked (up) League:
The Washington Redskins, the organization with the racist team name, were the only team to pick up one Reuben Foster, who had been released last week by the 49ers (about a year too late, truthfully) who has now been accused of domestic violence twice (in fairness, the first charges were dropped, though there's something not quite kosher about the dropping of the accusation).
And then, after having a second quarterback lost for the season due to injury, the Redskins declined to sign noted national anthem protester Colin Kaepernick as a backup because he doesn't fit into their system (which seems to be the go to answer for not signing Kaepernick among all teams in the NFL--amazing he guided a team to the Super Bowl considering how ill suited he is to NFL offensive systems, isn't it?).
So this is the message the NFL is sending to our kids: Beat a woman and you can have a job, but if you exercise your constitutionally protected right to free speech by taking a knee during the national anthem to protest racial inequality, you cannot be employed in the NFL.
Completely. Fucking. Clueless.
Fuck Donald Trump

Well I'll be....
"We are disappointed and increasingly concerned by the recent incidents that have overshadowed this NFL season. We are not yet satisfied with the league's handling of behaviors that so clearly go against our own company culture and moral code. We have shared our concerns and expectations with the league."
There isn't much of the usual corporate bullshit in that statement--it's pretty clear the folks at Anheuser are none too happy with the NFL's bungling of a week's worth of coverage of the abusive behavior of a number of its stars. And it is a little surprising, truth be told.
God knows I'm one of the first to point out the all too usual egregious behavior by U.S. corporations--Anheuser-Busch deserves the props it's been getting today for its no bullshit stance. Especially considering that beer goes with football like popcorn goes with movies.
Peace,

Why sportswriters should stick to writing about sports
What many may not know (perhaps because neither player is of the star status of Rice), is that there are two other players currrently facing domestic violence charges--Greg Hardy of the Carolina Panthers (appealing his conviction) and Ray McDonald of the San Francisco 49ers (arrested September 1st, case still being investigated). For obvious reasons, there are many calling for both of these players to be suspended as well.
In an interview today, 49ers CEO Jed York said the 49ers would not punish McDonald until due process has played out. Which prompted San Francisco Chronicle sports columnist Ann Killion to tweet that York had dropped the "due process card."
Excuse me, but due process is not a fucking card--it's a right that's been around since the Magna Carta and is every American's constitutional right, as outlined in clauses in the Fifth and Fourteenth Amendments. I am in no way defending McDonald's actions (full disclosure: I've been a 49ers fan since 1968)--there's probably a 99% chance that he's guilty. But due process exists (as wisely inserted by our Founding Fathers in the Fifth Amendment) for that 1% chance that he isn't--and that chance shouldn't be treated so flippantly.
Just ask the mother and father of Michael Brown what happens when authorities take a citizen's due process into their own hands.
Peace,
