“Keep in mind this predates, by several years, the Mary Kay Letourneau/Vili Fualaau spectacle in the media: The first segment covers the subject of a 13 year old boy being seduced by a 35 year old female school cafeteria worker. I notice Tim is saying extremely little in this interview…Everyone else is providing a narrative for him… He appears completely manipulated during this “interview”. Tim hid and protected this relationship, and the sex that was happening… …It’s interesting that after the relationship was caught, he started sneaking back to it a few months later…defying his parents… Tim honestly doesn’t come off, as someone who is having real trouble with this…He comes off as someone who is being psychologically manipulated, by people who don’t like that he is a sexual being. Tim gives an interesting smirk, early on… I didn’t recall Phil being this big of a pop psychology prude. There’s lots of giggles in the audience…They behave so different, from the crowds today. Tim is a kid who gets the belt from his own mother, when he does not obey…It seems he is clearly subdued and under control here. Maybe Tim was thinking about the sex more than school…but can you honestly connect the dots, and blame the sex on declining grades?…Sounds extremely speculative. What I’m seeing here…is a bunch of people who are upset, that Tim got sexually socialized as a thirteen year old…But can they honestly articulate why they are upset, beyond the issue that this sort of relationship is not anticipated, or thought of as being socially normal? |

“Ted Cruz is a total pig!
Just confirmed @SenTedCruz and his family flew to Cancun tonight for a few days at a resort they’ve visited before. Cruz seems to believe there isn’t much for him to do in Texas for the millions of fellow Texans who remain without electricity/water and are literally freezing.

“This Mitch McConnell decision will lead to the end of the Republican Party as we know it.
Fox News’ Sean Hannity was not happy with Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell’s criticism of Donald Trump following the Senate’s acquittal of the former president for inciting the Capitol riot.
McConnell on Saturday voted to acquit Trump in the impeachment trial, then immediately declared Trump morally responsible for provoking the violence that sacked the Capitol and left five people dead.
On Monday, Trump ally Hannity put McConnell on notice. The prime time personality slammed McConnell as “sanctimonious” and accused the seven Senate Republicans who voted to convict Trump as being “way out of touch” with the GOP base.
